Mint Mobile is great both as a service and as a brand partner, but let it be known that I was legally required to say “thank you” to Mint Mobile right up there, which is typically not something I do with sponsors, because I’m a generally pretty rude and inconsiderate guy, and even when I am earnestly thankful— like I am to Mint Mobile for helping us finance the greatest gaming content on planet earth— I would usually keep it to myself so I don’t come across as sentimental. I would ONLY ever say “thanks” to someone out of legal obligation. Just want to make that clear. Thanks guys, have a good day.
(only one more Any Austin video before GTA6)
literally have been WAITING for an any austin horizon mention i literally cheered omg
👏yes👏yes👏yes👏yes👏 👏skybox👏appreciation👏
I laughed at AASS every time
It certainly doesn't have the fidelity that 3d open world games have, but the sunsets of Night in the Woods will always be some of my favorites. Especially the one where you just sit on a bridge and take in the scenery.
no dark souls 2 lmfao ok
This Video is AASS
Ghost of Tsushima was robbed. Easily the most beautiful, and it's not even close.
Halo Infinite has beautiful sunsets, and the ring makes it very unique
No "Dying Light"?
Unacceptable
Guys. Be quiet. Austin is talking about logarithms.
Nearly 8 years after the game came out, I think your channel has done more than any of my friends or online conversations to convince me to give RDR2 a try. I was so let down when I played RdR1, like, it was just a newer, worse-playing GUN that I was amazed anyone enjoyed it, that I didn't even look at 2 for more than a few minutes over the years.
Doesn't help that large majority of the comments about the game I've heard or read have been about shrinkage physics.
in Ocarina of Time, wait until sunset and then go to Kakariko village and u will be locked into an eternal sunset with the village music playing, the windmill churning and the cuccos clucking in the background
Best night sky next? 👀
I am probably bias, but man – I feel like WoW Classic should have made that list. But absolutely agree that these games all have some epic sunsets.
Final Fantasy XV has one of my fav day night cycles but those sunsets hit different. Underrated pick.
Sad that Valheim didn't make it to the tear list, in my opinion it has some gorgeous sunsets, especially after heavy grind or boss fight
Wow forever has entered the chat
TOP 1 = VALHEIM
Sea of thieves has a beautiful sunset
Holy shit. I expected Rdr2 at first but didn‘t expect an AASS that huge.
new music??
Have you thought about doing a skate 3 video?
Helldivers 2 has some wonderful things happening in the sky. The diversity of biomes on offer, the variety in the stars the planets orbit is just great (knocks starfield out of the water)
I caught a realtime eclipse recently, it was lovely, i can't remember the name but it was on a planet (moon) with a very harsh ultraviolet kind of light. Stunning.
my favorite will always be The Long Dark. They're samey and can be monotonous but the 'painted' aesthetic of the skybox just sells the whole game's vibe for me. They feel desolate and lonely.
It’s not out yet, but world of Warcraft forever has some amazing sunsets
Please do a video about the best night sky in gaming
Tchia the best sun
Seeing Star Wars Galaxies on the giant list towards the end blew my mind. Still miss that game to this day.
day 1 of realizing baldurs gate 3 was never mentioned on this channel
My favorite sunset growing up was on Sirena Beach in Super Mario Sunshine. I used to slowly swim around in the ocean for hours, just staring at the sunset and listening to the music. There was something magical about it to me.
Microsoft Flight Simulator might be a sunset simulator
Gran Turismo 7 is literally the most photorealistic and breathtakingly best
S tier video ❤
Another thing about red dead is the relevance of the sunset at the game’s ending 😢
Crimson Desert has hella beautiful sunsets, especially when you watch them from the Abyss. Watching the sun set a cross the whole game, unbelievable. Its such a pretty game.
new outro song is peak
I fully agree with the inclusion of certain games in this ranking, but, in my opinion, GTA SA features better sunsets than GTA 5. Even so, I understand the criteria that were used to compile this list.
Dying light is a good one for me !
He said we can look at the list ourselves and I'm really curious to see it, but I'm not sure where to access it… is there a link somewhere? Does anyone know? Thanks!
I wonder if Big Walk was mentioned in any of the threads. I feel like it combines the idea behind Minecraft, where the sun setting is important for the gameplay flow, with the fact that you're kind of naturally observing the sunsets with the other players.
@43:37 is my boy austin using AI? angry emoji
Idk how to explain this properly, but Austin has made me appreciate videogames and life more. Love your work Austin!
i reckon the No.1 spot might be skewed a little, since that one particular sunset is so especially impactful, but I'm certainly not gonna argue, I'd have put it up there as well, and for the very same reason.
og fortnite has the best sunset idc
its one of the systems of the year used here.
You forgot to mention how awesome Mad Max is.
