Well, today, I was talking with my friends(who have never owned a retro console) and they were talking about how great the graphics are on next generation consoles. I tried to say that graphics didn't make a good game automatically, but they said that graphics are the most important thing in every game.

So, do you know any modern gamers who only care about graphics, and do you think that modern gamers as a whole only care about graphics?

P.S: Mods, if this was already made...delete it.

Alot of gamers only care about the graphic but I care about the game itself just because a game has bad graphics doesn't make it a bad game my favorite game is king's field for the playstation one and the graphics were very bad and most of the old games are the best games I ever played so the games graphics don't make a game great it's the game itself that makes it great.

TharGamer : No, not too many people care only about the graphics. It is just the stunning graphics usually in game trailers people love and want to buy games so that is why every game usually has great graphics. I really do not care about the graphics at all as long as the game itself is good.

While I certainly think that graphics are an important part of the game, I also value other elements of the game, like a good storyline or plot, or most importantly the replay value. A would rather play a game with okay graphics and a good plot rather than one with great graphics and no plot. Honestly though I think things like good graphics and a nice soundtrack are really just a nice bonus and they shouldn't be the main thing you judge a game for...while they are nice to have, they aren't necessarily the main course of the game so to speak. I would much rather have a game that  am likely to play again and again rather than one that just has nice graphics, but that is just my opinion. I would have to say that graphics probably just lure people into buying the game if they release a game trailer and then they realize that the game isn't that great....

Most of them do, and I hate it. Graphics are an extra touch for me, and because of that I care about the gameplay more than anything else. Every game has their own style, and upping the graphics is costly. It may feel like you're immersed in the game by how realistic it is, but it shouldn't be used for a review. Judge the game for what it is, not for looks.

Well, yes and no. Many do only care about the graphics, but most just care about how fun the game is. For example, my friend will only play one of my many N64 games just because the graphics are horrible. I ask him if he wants to play Goldeneye, "But the graphics are horrible."

Some "gamers" really don't understand the concept of video game evolution. Video games started out with horrible graphics. It's not Nintendo's fault, nor is it the developer's fault. They simply didn't have the technology to produce realistic graphics back then. The N64 had revolutionary graphics at the time, but nowadays some people like to criticize its graphics.

Me? I barely care about graphics. I play games from SNES-3DS/Wii/XBOX 360. However, there still are some games that bother me with their graphics (lolkirby64).

Some do and some don't in a way. Its depends on how you feel about it, and when you play the game itself. To be honest I don't care for the graphics. But I do try and play the upgraded modern games, as I am an old school person. Its as solider said play the game for what it is, and only not for the looks. Though I might get startled by the new hd games out there, I try to play them for fun. I do play the wii and the ps3 if I can try too. But I am not like my bro who can play every cool game that comes his way. People have their own ways of deciding what they like, and what they don't like.

Refer to my post here for why I play video games. I don't care if a game has great graphics or not, mind you if its a modern 3d game from an actual dev studio I expect something a little better than Lugaru's graphics. Not many games have had me sold purely on their graphics. When I did actual know people who also played video games a lot graphics weren't the most important aspect of the game for them. Sure it was still "my gosh look at those graphics," but it was still more about the games content for them. Sadly though a lot of people who labels themselves as gamers only care about how realistic the graphics look and don't appreciate the classics (because their pixelated, low rez, what have you). I admit I do enjoy high end graphics in my games, squealed like a lil' girl when I saw the video of SR's VU in LoL, but graphics are not the biggest pull for me.

Sadly, I feel like the average gamer, all they look at is graphics and multiplayer. I mean look at games that come out every year like COD. All they have is multiplayer and a lot of cut scenes and a one player campaign that only takes like 4-6 hours to beat. That's just ridiculous to me.

The only people that really look past graphics are those that can enjoy older games, like most of us that frequent Vizzed.

Just like how people will complain that a game is too hard. Gamers just aren't what they used to be.

I would think so. If it's a new game, then yes. But if it's a classic game, then most people play for the nostalgia. But other than that, a lot more effort is put into the graphics which make it more appealing.

I know many who care about the graphics, but none who care about the graphics "alone". I'd understand if they're looking forward to having great graphics, considering the current powers of our gaming consoles, it would be a huge dissappointment to have a text based game with no pictures and stuff aside from the texts themselves and a plain black background in a ps3 for example. However as others have already pointed out, graphics alone won't make a great game, rather, it should be together with the main gameplay or mechanics, and most of the time the story plots as well.

None of my friends care solely about graphics when it comes to gaming. 

As for myself, sure I like seeing great graphic's in new games, but that alone wont make me buy a game. I'm fussy when it comes to buying video games and no matter how amazing a game looks, I personally wont buy it if the story and character's don't interest me.

Graphics are VERY important to me. If I pay $60 for a new game, it should look better than the last one I bought. I like to play games that push the limits of my console, like Tomb Raider, Uncharted, The Last of Us Assassin's Creed, Skyrim, etc.. I don't want to play something that has an overhead view or a side scrolling view. I don't want to play something that looks all pixelated or cartoony on my playstation.

I buy Playstation because they have the best graphics, and they have the best exclusive games that I like to play. If you xbox people want to try and argue this point, go play Uncharted 3 or The Last of Us. Xbox 360 could never produce graphics or gameplay anywhere CLOSE to those two games. Nothing on xbox ever caught my attention, apart from Fable, and that wasn't for it's graphics, I just really love the gameplay.?

That being said, I love retro games, and I love games on my phone. I guess what I'm getting at is if I'm playing something on my console, I expect it to have good graphics, and if it doesn't, then I don't want to play it on my system. I will if it's a good game, but it has to have some good gameplay. When I play emulators, homebrew, and phone games, I'm not expecting to get good graphics, I'm expecting to play a good game. I could honestly care less about graphics in this case, as long as it has solid gameplay I'll play the crap out of it and won't even pay attention to graphics.

I love good graphics, but only for new games. I still love the retro feel of games though. (Old graphics and all.)
Poster above me has a good point about the price, it should reflect quality.

When you think about it, this isn't the first time where something like graphics seems to be a bigger deal than other things like gameplay. At the beginning of the 16-bit era, it was all about graphics. I think these kind of players have always been around. Obviously, you want your game to look pretty, and the better the graphics are, usually, the better the game can capture you into the game. There are those people who are very narrow minded on what kind of games they buy. It could just be loyalty to a certain company, graphics, or the name, like Call of Duty.

As for me, I love games that have good graphics. But I don't feel like a game that has graphics that aren't good, for its time or otherwise lose much because of it. There are people that I know that buy games for graphics, but in the end, even they usually know a good game doesn't need the best graphics.

I care about graphics but that is to make a game MORE enjoyable, I mean if I could turn Zelda Ocarina of Time into FFXIV (PC Version) Graphics I would do it because graphics make my gaming experience better. However, just because a game doesn't have high quality graphics doesn't mean it's bad, especially with retro games, I'm sure to keep in mind that new games and old games can't be compared because the game making engines were obviously inferior to the ones that we currently have. Take for example my situation if my PC had good enough performance I would without no doubt install hd textures and shades to minecraft to make it look like this
I care about graphics but that is to make a game MORE enjoyable, I mean if I could turn Zelda Ocarina of Time into FFXIV (PC Version) Graphics I would do it because graphics make my gaming experience better.

In a way yes because people want the story of these games to be a good story same for the graphics and even people even are writing reviews saying that oh this is a crappy game or oh this is a good game you should check it out.

Considering how graphics are always changing, I think it's a little silly to denounce a game based on graphics.
I can understand maybe if the game was made recently but has the graphics of a PS1 game,
but I think it's ridiculous when people discredit a game for an older console because of graphics.
It could be compared to criticizing an older movie for not having the technology to be in colour.

I think graphics are a good selling point. Newer games are expected to look great (if it isn't obviously trying to look retro), however, what really matters is the story and character depth. It's tough to like a game in any way if the characters and story are bad. Basically, graphics are appreciated and something a creator can boast about, but it is not the only (nor the most important) factor that makes a game sell.
