The graphics of the game are considered outdated, with many users experiencing performance issues such as crashes and lag, even on relatively modern hardware. While some appreciate the nostalgic value of the graphics from its original release, they are largely viewed as subpar by today's standards, leading to frustration among players.

“Some of the graphics were even upgraded to look better in 2001.”
“I love the graphics and I wish I had more patience to actually get along with the basic key setup to give this a fighting chance.”

“I got my computer sometime around 2012-2013 and play with all the newest models and spell graphics on (as you should be able to do in any game, especially one as old as EQ).”
