The game's graphics have received mixed feedback, with praise for its unique, visually appealing art style and strong graphical fidelity, especially on Unreal Engine versions. However, some users noted a downgrade when the developers switched to a less advanced graphics engine, resulting in a cheaper look. Overall, the design and aesthetics stand out for their originality and high quality, contributing positively to the gaming experience.
“The game is both visually and aesthetically pleasing, meaning not only is the graphical fidelity high, the design is great too.”
“The general art style is quite unique; it's fresh to see a new take on graphics. It doesn't look like every other game out there. It feels a lot more alien, and the characters are really interesting, as are the armors and flora of the game.”
“Now that I am able to play this beautiful game on my poor 3-year-old non-gamer PC, I'm glad that OOM can be beautiful for me as well, but I'm sure that the graphics are even more beautiful on better settings.”
“3 months and they had finally made it playable, but no content... they decided late 2015 to revert to a cheap-looking graphic engine, with tab-target non-action combat, and worst of all, horrible controls.”
“Right now I really liked the art style and combat, but it’s much needed to improve, though I hope it will be done even better.”
“I played the earlier versions before the move to Unreal 4 and while graphically not as strong as the Unreal 4 version, it was a lot of fun.”
