Has there ever been a truly great post apocalyptic game?

Has there ever been a truly great post apocalyptic game?
I was never a fan of Fallout's boring grey deserts.

>boring grey deserts
I mean... How else would a post apocalyptic world look like?
Also source.

>How else would a post apocalyptic world look like?
That depends on the apocalypse and time elapsed.
Not everything results in a grey desert.

I like this sort of aesthetic for it, too bad this area in nier automata was smaller than Hyrule field and there's no reason to ever explore in that game.

But wasn't Nier Automata like thousands of years after the war? It makes sense that plants would be regrown by that time, as opposed to Fallout in which the games all take place like within 200 years of the war.

>That depends on the apocalypse and time elapsed.
I assumed OP wanted a world with a very recent nuclear apocalypse. Of course after a while the world can heal and would appear different, just like Nier's picture.

But I agree, Automata's setting was really fucking cool

Yeah there's plenty of apocalyptic scenarios that result in different post apocalyptic environements.

You can get creative with it if you go beyond normality

Plants come back in less than 30 years, fallout is a total meme.
They don't have plants because the devs are lazy.

Gross. Gib 2D.

Every fromsoft game

Try rage...but it has the boring deserts like fallout. But the difference is you can drive a car.

Chernobyl wasn't a nuclear apocalypse tho. There's a difference in just pouring a lot of radiation in one place from literally destroying everything everywhere with nukes.

those girls are at minimum 25

There's plants in the bombed areas in Japan too though.

Oh wow

Zelda ocarina for the 5 seconds you assume the entirety of Hyrule is fucked until you run out of Castle Town.
