The graphics of Cyber Protocol have received criticism for their lack of clarity, which hampers the fast-paced gameplay experience. The game's complex visuals and heavy post-processing create an overwhelming amount of information, detracting from player engagement. While the cyberpunk aesthetic is well-executed, it often complicates rather than enhances the visual experience.
“In fact, forgetting the character art - it really only shows up in the intro - the game deliberately leans hard into the cyberpunk hacking aesthetic, cleverly using it to drive you nuts without feeling like anything is out of place.”
“Another huge complaint is the lack of clarity with the visuals.”
“For a game that's meant to be played at a fast pace, you would expect clear visuals to enable players to process things quicker.”
“Cyber Protocol tries to do too much with its more complex visuals and post-processing, creating an overload of information which counteracts the supposed fast gameplay loop.”
