Best looking fire in games?

[TaySan]

Modern Warfare is a pretty good contender i say. Especially if you are playing in HDR!

But Ryse is also a good mention.

Any game does it better? :O

That surprisingly still looks great for how old that game is. :O

Dark souls 3 has great fire I think.

assassins creed odyssey too.

 

[DaciaJC]

I thought it looked rather good in Sekiro.

 

[Deleted member 13798]

Assassins Creed: Odyssey has some good fire.

Far Cry games do as well, with 2 and after.

 

[MillionIII]

Far cry 4

 

[Nilaul]

I think fire looks rather good in every game.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

I remember thinking this shit looked WILD back in 2008

Utgarde Keep, World of Warcraft.

A few years earlier I thought the fire effects in Kingpin Life of Crime were very good for the time.

 

[404LinkNotFound]

I always liked the fire effects in The wind waker

this is amazing too

 

[Reluctantly Gumblesmug]

couldnt find a gif, but i remember the fire looking pretty good in the left 4 dead games.

 

[Toxi]

Honestly, most video game fire looks awful to me. It's always too opaque and puffy and lacks the wispiness of the real thing.

This is easily the best looking one in the thread for me.

I bet some games have great fire and water!

 

[Echo]

Glad Windwaker got posted it has nice stylistic fire.

My own entry is FFXV.

... Also that whole fight against Ifrit of course.

Did you guys play AC Origins? Much better looking fire than Odyssey.

RDR2 has the best looking fire.

This is a really creative pick and I'm not sure I'd disagree.

 

[Hexadron]

I know everyone usually gushes over whatever the newest game is, but Death Stranding's fire is pretty dope.

BOTW has very pretty fire. The movement is so good.

I don't have gifs on hand, but the effects for Birkin and Mr. X on fire in the RE2 remake were effective.

Oh my 😍
That some good fire

 

[dodo]

fire is so interesting in games because it's so ubiquitous but also maybe one of the hardest things to make look good. even some of the best examples in here look a little off, especially in games that otherwise look fantastic.

 

[JigglesBunny]

The right answer is Mad Max.

They said "best looking fire in games."

 

[Deleted member 17210]

Thunder Force III's still looks good.

 

[Fahdi]

Pikmin 3. Can't find a good gif.

[theaface]

Uncharted 3's chateau fire comes to mind.

 

[Cort]

Far Cry 5 looked impressive. Only gif I can find.

 

[KrillinLikeAVillan]

Metro exodus.

Alien isolation also has some nice fire.
