Option to disable moving background behind main menus

I get motion sick while playing games sometimes, and while the actual Sins game is no problem for me (I don't rotate the camera ever), navigating the menus when the game first starts is a gut-wrenching expereince.

Just to clarify, what I'm asking for is an option to disable the game panning and zooming around when I click buttons in the initial menu. If this doesn't exist, I'd be very grateful if it could be added.

I don't know of a way to do that. I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a way to do that.

Best advice I can give is to close your eyes or look away when you click...
At least it's not like a vehicle. You can deal with it without having to stop completely.

Motion sickness can be caused by the refresh rate of the screen, which can cause a flicker. You don't consciously notice it, but the brain does. I know this because some people I know suffer from it, mainly in FPS games though.

To help alleviate the problem, I think you have to turn the refresh rate down. Or it could be up, I can't remember.
