Looking good is about artstyle more than realistic graphics for me so most pixelart games.
Terraria
Celeste
Half life 2
Graphically I’d have to say either Broke the Investigator or Corn Kidz 64.
One, as someone described in a plauthrough video, looks like a Saturday morning cartoon. The other, I think nails that old 90s 3D somewhat stylized video game look pretty well, IMO.
Super Mario
celeste
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (Ground Zeroes as well)
Hollow Knight and Silksong
A lot of older 2d games can run on a portrait potato and the artwork holds up excellently.
RC2, civ 3, Anno 1602, sim city 3000, AOE2.
Mass Effect 2

They toned down the ass in the legendary edition unfortunately.
That’s what mods are for
In good times, in bad times. They’ll be on your side forevermore.
mASS effect.
mass erect
Portal 2
But how is it holding up?
lots of really good pixel art: Celeste, hyper light drifter, dead cells, etc
Ragnarok online is what made me love pixel art.
Wish gravity wasn’t a greedy shit company that deserved to burn to the ground.
But man pixel art games are just special.
Obligatory Hollow Knight mention
