Looks like shit as in graphics aren't great? Sure

Looks like shit as in it looks broken and unplayable or otherwise a torturous slog to play through? No

I don't actually have any problem with the graphics of FF7, but I finished replaying it again 2 weeks ago.

This. Graphics aren't that important if the gameplay is decent.

But back then, that was the best they could do.

That's not what this is about though, it's if the graphics or the story are more important, actually playing it notwithstanding.

They're both equally important. But if I had to choose, story is more important.
I won't get into a game with a bad story no matter how good the graphics are.

Define "shit" graphics. Only a few odd early 3D games look really bad. 2D looks fine for the most part.

For the most part, the story depends on the genre but if we're picking between graphics or story, I'd rather have plot.

I mean like an indie game by someone who clearly can't draw.

If it was getting good reviews then yes, but if it was that big a problem for the designer couldn't they collaborate with an artist/musician to do it better justice?

Oh, this is strictly a "what if" situation. I can probably look past it if it's a really good story.
