The graphics made me wary of trying it but I'm 300+ hrs in, best gaem evar! This game reminds me of Ultima Underworld.
Check out my LP in my signature.

The problem is by accepting such low effort crap you're further encouraging devs to not bother with decent art direction. Same goes for the shitty pixel art game JarlFrank posted.
Even indie devs can do better than that.

This is FACTUALLY wrong. Just look at the sequel, that was made possible because of the support for the first game.

Is this RPG Codex?
Some of us have been graphics whores since the 1980s.

Defender of the Crown, Archon, Aquaventura, Shadow of the Beast
I did a search.
Defender of the Crown is ingame and animated, the rest are cover art which is not gameplay graphics.
You are talking about being a graphic whore you should be posting gameplay graphics instead of cover art.
They may be better than Unexplored but do the gameplay graphics qualify for a graphics whore?

Archon title art vs gameplay graphics.
I've played this, pretty fun.

Shadow of the Beast cover art and ingame graphics, the game art is good.

Unexplored's poor cover art.

Bonus artstyle that was not implemented.

The graphics update is dead. Long live the graphics update.

When we announced the graphics update, people reacted strongly. And mostly not in favor of the proposed changes. And although we still need to draw in more people, we were swayed by your arguments. But also we realized that we needed to invest too much time and effort in making the style work to your satisfaction.

If you graphic whores want good ingame graphics, here is nice graphics made in 1990. BEST GAEM EVAR!

Edit to add:
The issue isn't whether the games look better or worse than Unexplored.
He is talking about being a graphics whore but posts cover art instead of gameplay graphics and whether those are "graphic whore" quality.

all the games you put in that poast look better than unexplored

I didn't say they look worse, that is not the issue.

He should be posting gameplay graphics and they should qualify for graphics whore.
Will the ppl complaining about bad graphics here complain about Aachon or Aquaventura today, not whether they are better than Unexplored, a lot of games do.
