I'd have to actually sit down and think about what my all-time pick for the most beautiful game I've played would be.
Off the top of my head though the last game that really wowed me with its presentation was definitely No Rest for the Wicked, by Moon Studios.
It's a top-down Action RPG with Soulslike elements - still in early access and frankly that early access has been a bit of a mess so far, but man does it look fantastic.
Thanks, guys, all great titles!
Impossible to forget games like - for example - Ico, SoC, or Okami. And if I go back in time even more, I can remember "dreamy" titles like Klonoa, Nights, Rayman (not to mention the very first Beyond the Ice Palace I played on my Atari-ST when I was a kid)
Ooops, maybe too much back in time, since I'm an oldie...
For me, the immediate thing to come to mind was my time with Pathologic 2. I haven't even personally finished the game myself, but even just thinking about it now makes me mildly emotional.
I also started playing it at the beginning of COVID lockdowns, likely heightening its impact.
its a little pretentious and a lot janky, but there isn't anything else in gaming quite like it.
