Graphics in Video Games: How Much Do They Matter To You?

I don't really care if a game has high graphics or low graphics but I like graphical consistency throughout the game. Why? Well, it makes me thinks the devs are being lazy when bits of the game look like ass compared to the rest of the game. 

 

I hope you don't mind me asking when a game was inconsistent with graphics? I'm not sure if I have encountered that before...

As an quick example, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Some parts of the game looked good and other parts after looking at it closer look horrible. 

In the opening sequence cave, the cobwebs had pixellated edges and were on a completely flat plane. It looked like the kind of thing you'd find in Duke 3D.... a pixellated  sprite with a transparant background that your character clips through as if they weren't even there.

In the golden claw cave, on thee other hand? The cobwebs looked just fine. 

I'm sure you played plenty of games that were like that and didn't notice or cared.
