How important are graphics in video games to you?

Bump for interest
They're optional,unless you make literal eye barf.
I don't not care for graphics at all.
I find low graphics more interest and have more charm. It depends on the game but overall I do not care about graphics. Stylization and performance are more important.
>Gameplay<Story<graphics
This is the only respectable answer

So much that I\m happy to sacrifice 30-40 FPS if it means the game looks pretty.

SO wait, are graphics the most important to you or did you intend for your brackets to be interpreted differently than "greater/less than?"
Im even fine with pixel graphics long as the game is fun

Pixel graphics are a must to me. I can't play a game without pixel graphics after experiencing Shovel Knight, Undertale and Stardew Valley. Heh, I guess you could call me somewhat of a retroist and an Indie-ana Jones.

>tfw they could have left the ground untextured and it'd look better
Graphics are a huge factor in my impression of a game.
But if I don't care for the graphics, I simply disregard it altogether. Good graphics are a plus, but if the game is perfectly redeemable and fun otherwise, why give a fuck if it's pretty or not?
WHAT DID I SAY?
Does art style count for graphics
As long as I can make out what's going on, I'm fine.
Framerate is far more important.

Gameplay is the driving factor. It's a game, not a movie.

You can't see a game without graphics
Its a VIDEO game, not a imagination
>>335714165
Art direction is more important. For example, the original Rayman still looks great today.

good art style and artists who can maintain that in regards to the hardware matters more

just as 2D games rely on good color choices, it matters in 3d games too. I hope you enjoy what I've posted, I'm glad I was fortunate enough to have other people tell me about these games in the past.
