7D2D is one of the games where the graphics don't matter that much. That is at high settings tough. That bad drawing distance is a no go as you see where you should go much later.
Beside that, the gameplay matters and I think it's great. But it's not for everyone, of course. If you don't like the mining/farming/hunting/building surviving gameplay the game would not be for you even if it had great graphics.
There are tons of let's plays on YouTube.
I like Kage843's. He usually starts a new season with every new alpha.

The support by the developers is amazing. You should take a look at the early alphas to see how the game evolved over the years.
