I don't give a shit how it looks. It could look like quake 1 for all I care. I just want it to be good.

They should give it good graphics. That will help pull in more new players and give the game a better chance of taking off. That being said, it shouldn’t be to worry, hopefully. These are early visuals.

Okay, I do. I don't want to play an ugly game when there's so many great looking ones out there.

"That book is awful, just look at the front cover, it's so ugly!"

Also lol at your other comment clearly demonstrating you have no idea how games are made.

BattleBit is the perfect example that graphics don't make a game good or bad. It looks like Roblox, but when you're in the game your don't even notice, until suddenly you realize how funny it is. BattleBit is the best Battlefield game in a very long time, while the modern Battlefield games are graphically amazing. They're just shitty games. The graphics of it also make it very readable. There's not a bunch of junk making it harder to tell what you're seeing. It shows what needs to be shown and that's about it.

Why not? If it plays well, has a nice story, interesting setting or whatever else, doesnt have to be the best looker to be a good time.

I mean, you do what you want but feels like to me you make yourself miss out on good things that are out there just because they dont have top tier graphics.

Dusk isnt the best looking game, but its good. Just as an example.

Because I like games that look good, plain and simple. I'd be playing boomer shooters otherwise
