There are certain games that had some parts of the game having a forest setting. However, it is not all of those games that we can say have a forest setting that looks like the type of forest that we see in real life.

Green Hell was a game that I can confidently say came very close to having such a forest setting that can even make one claim it is a real forest. Are there other games like that which you've played?
 
Valheim does this really well. First time I walked into the Black Forest at night it actually felt unsettling. RDR2 too — the forests around Roanoke Ridge are genuinely dense, like the trees have weight to them. I've spent more time than I should have just riding through them.
 
Sons of the Forest is probably the benchmark for this. The trees have that wet, overgrown look that actually feels right — especially at night near the caves. Green Hell does it too, that jungle density gets properly uncomfortable after a while. Damo hated both of them for exactly that reason, which I take as a recommendation.

Wait, any genuine reason that made Damo hate both games aside from how real the forests look in the game?
