Everyone is always talking about how important graphics are to a game. I figure, why not make a thread to let you guise vent even if some flame does come up. My Opinion: Graphics aren't extremely important. Better graphics can help immerse you in a game, but they aren't necessary. Look at Bioshock Infinite, most of the graphics are amazing, but if you look at the people and they seem almost cartoonish, yet their emotions are easily read. Now look at The Walking Dead, by telltale. You can see the paint strokes, yet that game can immerse you like no other. I feel some games do benefit from great graphics, but others are just fun, if not better, with different art styles, like windwaker for example. |

| I agree with OP. I have to say I really like a lot of old style graphics such as those from ALttP. Something about old graphics is sooo... cool |

Graphics make a game, I wouldn't want ugly 16-bit polygon graphics in a game.
Hmm |

@sugar73
Yeah, but they increase the immersion factor and make you feel like you are actually in the game. It is not a necessary game requirement, but it can help the feel you get when you play the game. |

I feel like 64 bit graphics are a lot more "polygon" like |

Game with awful graphics but great gameplay, 'tis a great game.
Game with great graphics AND great gameplay (bannerlord pls do this), 'tis an amazing game (if there's a good story as well, e.g. the Witcher 2). |

they're important if the game tries to look realistic
if it's mario party on wii, the only thing missing about the graphics is the antialiasing
On the other hand, I'm left-handed. |

graphics are very important on games, however it's more art-style than the all-out realism of the graphics (unless that's the art-style)
the only time better graphics is a pro is when it's a multiplat |

I not a gamer that bends over backwards for graphics. I think graphics are a little important but no all the time. To me the most important thing in a game is gameplay.
I judge by Gameplay first then presentation then story. |

| It doesn't matter as long as it's not absolutely horrible, and the games with absolutely horrid graphics usually are absolutely horrid games. |

I prefer the graphics in Crysis than in Crysis 3.
Metro: Last Light is the most realistic game I've seen.
Bioshock: Infinite is currently one of the most beautiful games out there with a great atmosphere.

But graphics aren't very important
They aren't even important
Gameplay is very important, Graphics is just a side thing to make it look pretty
