NMS is amazing to play in VR.

Monster Hunter World is five years old and holds up great.

  • bask in the sun halfway up the Ancient Forest with a Tobi-Kadachi (giant white electric flying squirrelsnake; chill until you hit it)
  • climb up to the top of the Coral Highlands cat colony and watch the sky jellyfish float by in the sunset
  • share a hot spring with snow monkeys in the Hoarfrost Reach

They did a great job of making the maps feel like a living system that goes on while you’re not there. (Sadly, this is much less true of the newest MH game, Rise, where the maps are full of traversal puzzles but the wildlife pretty much all exists only to attack you.)

+1 for MHW, the environments always felt alive and you start to learn the patterns of wildlife as you spend time in them

I liked rise because the gameplay felt more streamlined and flowy but I agree, the environments felt a little more stale

Witcher 3. The scenery there is just beautiful. And you get your first beautiful scenery pretty much immediately in the tutorial, just go to the balcony in your room and look.

Esp. when you get to the Blood and Wine expansion. The stars at night are beautiful.

Firewatch is a very beautiful game

Was coming here to say this. Game is good, but the artwork and feeling of the game is amazing.

For some strange reason nobody mentioned Tunic yet. Definitely take a look at it!

skyrim, i have loads of pictures just of the sky in that game

also hogwarts legacy has some very beautiful locales throughout the game, and hogwarts itself is wonderfully done

I played Skyrim AE right after Horizon Forbidden West and I kept finding the simplicity and visual clarity of the game to be so damn beautiful. The game has the right amount of clutter, right amount of volumetric fogs and right amount of texture detail to be easy on eyes and believable as a consistent and functioning world.

i like the ants marching on some of the logs, easy to see in riverwood by the area where gerdur talks to you after the intro

  • Death’s Door just a stunning game in regards to art style and music/sound design. Really creative boss battles too that never felt stale. Can be challenging.
  • Omno very chill game with a really cool vibe and music. No combat to speak of. Short though.
  • Pseudoregalia PS1-style graphics but oddly gorgeous. It’s a metroidvania of sorts with some of the best movement mechanics in recent memory. Highly recommend a look at least.
  • A Short Hike really cute game that is all about exploration. As the title suggests, not a very long game. On the Switch version there was a toggle to turn off a graphics filter that is reminiscent of the 3DS. I personally liked it, but I have not checked the Steam version for the same option.
  • Sea Of Stars releases on 29 Aug, but there is a demo available. Between the gorgeous 16bit inspired graphics, the lighting effects, and the incredible soundtrack this would be an instant buy for me if it weren’t hitting Game Pass on day one! I may still plunk down on a physical copy. Leaning towards Switch, assuming it plays as well there as other platforms.

These are maybe not what some would consider beautiful, but I love the variation in art styles and how they can be beautiful while either being simplistic or retro-inspired. All but Sea Of Stars were very cheap during the Steam Summer sale or in a Fanatical bundle that may or may not still be available right now.

I played Ratchet and Clank: A Rift Apart recently because it was available free on PS+ and it is the most gorgeous game I have ever played in my life.

The graphical capabilities are astounding, the aesthetic is pleasing, and there is charm out the wazoo. You can’t look anywhere without seeing something interesting making use of all that fancy graphic tech. I kept it installed despite 100%ing it just to mess around with the photo mode.

I almost picked it up off GMG, but I’m really not a platformer guy.

perishthethought ,

This might be weird, but Just Cause 3. When I was playing it a lot, I would just stop and look around at sunset and marvel at the view.

The Octopath Traveler games

MrGerrit ,

Such beautiful pixel art game. Really enjoyed playing it.

Endless Legend is the most beautiful 4x game I’ve seen so far. All of the races are great designs and feel really different in gameplay.

cordlesslamp ,

For more immersion, you might wanna try VR. And if looks is what you’re after then PCVR for specific, although there are some impressive contents on mobile VR too.

MrGerrit ,

Most recently horizon: forbidden west had me moments that I would stop and just look the beautiful scenery. As a hardcore introvert, staying inside person I really admire such a great view.

loops OP ,

I feel that. I’m anxiously waiting for it to be ported to PC. ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
