The game's graphics rely on outdated retro pixel art, which many players find lackluster and simplistic. Although there are resolution options available, they merely upscale the existing visuals without enhancing quality, leaving little room for improvement in the overall graphical experience.
“A choice was made to use obsolete, decades-old retro pixel 'art' as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
“While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
“Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lackluster 2D visuals.”

The story of "Hecatoncheir Story" is described as being closely tied to the 3D Game Kit developed by Unity Technologies, suggesting a focus on gameplay mechanics rather than a deep narrative. Overall, the storytelling aspect appears to be minimal and may not be the primary draw for players.
