See; Dwarf Fortress for an extreme example

The game title Dwarf Fortress reminds me of a game my dad used to play. It was pretty much all in a letter format :o Is this the game you're talking about?
But no, graphics aren't what makes a good game. It frustrates me when you show a kid nowdays an old game and they'll reject it because of the graphics. It disappoints me ;_;

SA2B was a game of my childhood. Took me forever to beat that stupid lizard whatever creature at the end :P

I would have said this to my friend but I never got a chance.
"If you played a game with the best graphics ever, but had horrible gameplay, would you play it?"
Tom Gunn:
I find that with todays tech that visuals do market a lot of popularity. I border between the two but gameplay being the strongest.
Tons of the students at my school a handicapped because I asked every one of them "what makes a videogame?" and the majority of responses were related to Call of Duty
And Graphics. Don't get me wrong, Call of duty has "goodish" graphical attributes and a wonderful gameplay for the campaigns. The Multiplayer is where the lower forms
of human life reside though. Personally I believe actual "gamers" care about a good gameplay and storyline. With the way videogames are being bounced around today, a
lot of developers have focused more on graphics and multiplayer than trying to equally appease the small crowd that enjoys a good story and gameplay.
