This is my Top 5 best looking games on PC. This is my opinion of course so feel free to list yours in the comments below. Honorary mentions video ruclips.net/video/eSH9nQCEgu0/видео.html
True, but the foliage still looks incredible! SS2 deserves top spot for looking really great on PC. It wouldn't be my #1 best looking game on consoles though.
Top 5 for me are RDR2 Alan Wake 2 Cyberpunk 2077 Hellblade 2 Avatar Frontiers of Pandora A Plague Tale Requiem and Horizon Forbidden West also look brilliant. Especially the texture quality in HFW. However, this is a top 5.
I agree. Hellblade 2 is currently the most photorealistic videogame out there. However, if we talk about stylised graphics, nothing comes close to Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.
To this day, I still think Crysis 3 Remastered is one of the best-looking games graphics. It's now that games are finally on par or finally beat it which is Hellblade 2
Ray tracing doesn't mean a win considering some of the best looking games don't have it. HFW at times looks insane. HDR done properly is the one for me. Great video as usual. 👊
Hmm....lots of open world titles and only one singleplayer game.... but this video is about graphics only.... so i think the avatar game somehow looks the best to me👍 I am playing Hellblade 2 at he moment, and yes it looks very good too, realistic.....
After seeing all your choices I'm confused at the order. Honorable mentions would be: Crysis 3 #5 FH5 #4, CyberPunk 2077 #3, A Plauge Tale #2, RDR2 #1. For this list: Avatar #5, Alan Wake 2 #4, R&C #3, HFW #2, and Senua's Sacrifice 2 #1. Though Senua's Sacrifice 2 isn't perfect visually it's the best looking game of these listed in my assessment which is geared towards photorealism and far more importantly, how successfully each game achieves it's visual goals. Ratchet and Clank targeting playable Pixar style CGI is why it should've been #3 on this list. Horizon is just a more realistic version of Ratchet and Clank. Too many things bring RDR2 down to put it on this list but the fact that it's at the top of the honorable mentions list and came out for last gen machines - where it also looks fantastic - is a testament to how good it holds up today. CyberPunk 2077 just looks meh in all honesty. It's only a technical benchmark due to path tracing which did not blow me away here, obviously or it would be at a higher position. Just that opening scene with the car driving at night shows so many visual flaws... is that clip showing path tracing? I really hope not. This must be why CDPR is looking to switch to UE. Crysis 3 looks great even now, but honestly I wouldn't even have considered it in the top ten if I chose these games. FH5 is also another game I probably would've replaced with something else in all honesty. Is NFS 2015 not available on PC?
Alan Wake 2 is Best Game ever made and there is not exist any game even close. Alan wake 2 was only game i did start play and end it in one day but most games after 10min i do quit.
100% agreed, even in next 2-3 yrs nothing cant beat it for sure. maybe more! we dont have game like Alan Wake 2 Graphics 10/10 , Gameplay 10/10 , Story 10/10 , Sound 10/10 , i hope didnt miss anything else.
yes me too after couple min quit game but Alan Wake 2 was best masterpiece , i was shock when saw baldur's gate 3 won game award and no only important thing is we all know Alan wake 2 is best game in game history so far.
@@RicochetForce There's too many visual flaws when using path tracing mode. You have to use it with Ray reconstruction, upscalers and frame generation, these features bring too much degradation to image quality, like ghosting and blurriness. Without ray reconstruction the reflections does not look that good. Without any gimmicks, and taking the game in its base form, no cutscences included, then the game visually is decent at best. Gears of war still looks better, dead space still looks better, rise of the tomb raider still looks better, lies of P looks better, and could make the argument GTA 5 overall still looks better. Edit: just loaded GTA 5, 4k max settings, superior to cyberpunk. The road, sidewalk, NPC's...not even close
@@RX7800XTBenchmarks I mean, if you play Cyberpunk at 4K DLAA, Path Tracing (no ray reconstruction because it makes the npcs look weird) with visual enhancement mods all displayed on an OLED display, there is no game, yes, NO GAME that even comes close to Cyberpunk's graphics. You saying GTA 5 looks better makes you look like a clown.
@@Venom_Byte cyberpunk looks this good just because of path tracing .... It's all because of it's lighting but textures, level of detail , NPC faces etc are still clearly old gen
crazy rdr2 a game that came out during ps4 era is still up here. Altho tbf i guess this game was very scalable for future hardware.on pc that is. Rockstar rlly does innovate!. As for a game like hfw idk why but i feel like theres too much bloom in some scenes. Maybe thats the HDR not sure.

Good choices, I would add Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart.
Remove horizon and put Alan wake 2
Ratchet and clank rift apart.
In my humble opinion, MFS2020 and FH5 deserved an honourable mention, but I see that you already honourably mentioned FH5...
I guess you didn't read the pinned comment.
@@Bang4BuckPCGamerYou replied while I was editing my comment...
Star Citizen
Hitman 3
Scorn
Alan wake 2 beats them all
Senua looks so good, yet they didn't think of adding foliage interaction, characters walk through leaves and not a single animation happens
True, but the foliage still looks incredible! SS2 deserves top spot for looking really great on PC. It wouldn't be my #1 best looking game on consoles though.
Ratchet and clank rift apart is my 1# pick for best looking game.
Top 5 for me are
RDR2
Alan Wake 2
Cyberpunk 2077
Hellblade 2
Avatar Frontiers of Pandora
A Plague Tale Requiem and Horizon Forbidden West also look brilliant. Especially the texture quality in HFW. However, this is a top 5.
My top 5 is similar:
1. Hellblade 2
2. Cyberpunk 2077
3. Alan Wake 2
4. Horizon Forbidden West
5. Avatar frontiers of Pandora
I'm surprised Alan Wake 2 didn't make the cut.
love the fact that you're still playing at 16:9 aspect ratio, at least fills up whole of my laptop screen and it looks incredible
I agree. Hellblade 2 is currently the most photorealistic videogame out there. However, if we talk about stylised graphics, nothing comes close to Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.
Really good chart! However I’d add Alan wake 2, with path tracing it should be best looking game or 2nd place
I would just add alan wake 2 but i agree with everything else
Hmm, no Alan Wake 2.
Is Hellblade II even a game ?
Horizon looks so good
hellblade 2 is like that unreal engine 5 tech demo at last
Would Ghost of Tsushima be in the top 10 or in the honorable mentions?
Hellblade 2 is woooooooow 😮
To this day, I still think Crysis 3 Remastered is one of the best-looking games graphics. It's now that games are finally on par or finally beat it which is Hellblade 2
Even the carcass on the horse moves realistically 3:21
No way Avatar over Plague Tale / Alan Wake, 'course u are entitled to your opinion
I agree with this.
good list. Hellblade was amazing. Do you find you get better frames by disabling hyperthreading?
Ray tracing doesn't mean a win considering some of the best looking games don't have it. HFW at times looks insane. HDR done properly is the one for me. Great video as usual. 👊
wait for Stalker 2, Silent Hill 2 remake and Pioner in this year
Hmm....lots of open world titles and only one singleplayer game.... but this video is about graphics only.... so i think the avatar game somehow looks the best to me👍 I am playing Hellblade 2 at he moment, and yes it looks very good too, realistic.....
RDR2 remains one of the best looking games in existence

For me its HFW. And perhaps in the list Hogwarts Legacy.

@@BranislavBratislava Alan Wake 2 is Best Game of the history let them choose they joke baldur's shits 😂
@@SpencerJohnson-dl9be true was best joke when saw this joke won game of the year award🤣
Number 2 = Flight Simulator 2020
Follow through with the rest of your list.
You forgot Allan Wake 2
I didn't, this is my top 5 Allan wake is not in it.
1. Peppa pig
best looking game is rdr2 in 1st person
3 of these 5 games are boriiiiing
I think Cyberpunk 2077 graphics are overrated.
That depends on the hardware you're running it on.
