Of course I rather look at beautiful graphics than chunk of textures that resemble me of vomit.
Graphics don't necessarily need to look realistic to look good, but they need to look cool, original, detailed and not lag like shit and it is quite annoying to wait for textures to load for 10 seconds (Dead Island, I am looking at you)
Also I bet that when you were kid and saw new generation consoles coming up you were like: "Oh those graphics look super cool!"
At least that is what I thought when I first saw PS2 games when I had played like NES and PS1 games before that. And there is nothing wrong with it. That is like complaining why people like good music in their games. That is part of the game and of course it matters if it is badly made.
I can understand if today's kids (god this makes me sound like some 50 years old, no offence) don't like older games because graphics aren't as good as they are today. They are used to newer graphics, they have grown up with them. Probably they as well complain how some people only care about new graphics when we have something like PS5 and graphics have evolved even more and say: "We were just fine with our graphics back then, now you only care about graphics)
I don't know why you try to complain about PC gamers and I can see that you don't know too much about PC gaming if you think that it is just about graphics. Also it really keeps new technology down and puts PC gamers to wait for better looking games because they have to wait until new console generation comes out that is powerful enough to handle those games.
