Graphics - 3/5
When first starting the game, I was kind of confused. There is an unskippable cutscene that looks straight out of 2005.
Generally, the graphics aren't top of the line, which is a bit surprising considering this game was made in the Unreal Engine. For those of you who don't know, Unreal is known for having radically good graphics. Just look at, for example, Assetto Corsa Competizione to see what can be done with that engine.
And then there's Dakar Desert Rally. I have to honestly say, the world looks great. World design gets an A+ from me. The issues I'm having are with the vehicle's outsides and most of all the people.
The roadside people and some stage objects that are scattered bring down the rest of the graphics to a lower level.
The vehicles look dated, to say the least. The people look not at all realistic. More like cartoon people. And that is a bit immersion-breaking. It all kind of looks similar to Dakar 2018, which in itself didn't have the best graphics, to be frank.
