The graphics of the game have received widespread acclaim, with many users praising them as some of the best seen in video games, showcasing stunning visuals and impressive art design. However, while the graphics are a highlight, some reviewers noted that they overshadowed the gameplay, which felt lacking or unengaging in comparison. Overall, the visuals are a strong point, but they do not compensate for gameplay shortcomings.
“First up, a note on the graphics here... the graphics are some of the best I've ever seen in a video game, and I've seen a lot of games in my time.”
“The art and graphic design team here is top-notch; the sky is the limit for them.”
“The visuals are stunning and the mechanics are easy to grasp.”
“Regrettably, graphics alone do not make a recommendable game, although they are a requirement.”
“Graphics aside, if they were trying to pitch the gameplay concept to a first-class publisher, you can see why there would be a lot of shrugs and blank looks.”
“It seems like the gameplay was added as an afterthought to the graphics, and this makes the whole thing feel like a glorified engine tech demo.”
