It depends on the video card. I installed a new video card into Zilly's computer a week or so ago and the difference between that and the on-board video adapter she was using is like night and day, especially since I was able to actually turn up all of the graphic settings to high without it freaking out. There are so many details and subtleties that we didn't even see before. This is quite honestly a very beautiful game. I may need to grab some screen shots from her computer later to show what I mean.

The framerate is also very horrible. Why can't they keep the cool enemy looks but make the framerate look nice? They can in other online games so I don't see why they don't do that with POTCO.
Smooth and detailed textures while keeping up with frame rate? Apparently Disney chose to lower the resolution of the textures immensely to make up for it. It's possibly a limitation in the game's graphics engine.
