That is a really good question! I went for fairly, depends on the game! Is LOD and View Dist considered graphics in this case...cos they are real important..well LOD is! Also the display settings like bright and contrast can help pick out an otherwise well hidden player easier. As always gameplay is the important thing, but graphics do matter too! I dont know how else to explain...A crap game with great graphics is still a crap game! A great game with crap graphics is not necessarily a great game its more of a great idea not supported well enough visually!
In summation...graphics and performance need to be in harmony for a game to be good in my eyes...either way to the extreme the game suffers! Luckily most games allow you tweak such setting to find the right balance! If you cant find that balance then the game is not good (or you need a new graphics card)!
