You could also say that the graphics look like they are for a game that needs approximately two more years before it's ready.
They are going for a rather spesific look, with thick cartoony lines around the characters. The characters looked like they were 3d-models, and if that's so they can rework the textures and the outlines independently of each other. It's like painting a miniature - once you have a mold for making them, you can paint them again and again until you like it or run out of time.
I agree that everything didn't quite feel like it fit tgether in these screenshots. Some of the trees and mountains looked strange, water and shoreline of one pick felt a little plastic etc. But that's easy to change.
