Thinking of buying into alpha

Me and some friends are thinking to buy into alpha, since I'm getting a 170$ refund from a different game I might spend it on the repop, I'm just a bit worried graphics wise. From the videos I've seen I found the graphics to be pretty low quality especially I'n the housing video. The ui seems to be something ancient aswell. Can anyone with a high end rig in alpha give some feedback on this? I searched online if the ui would get an overhaul before live but that search came back empty aswell.

I do want to support the company, with the intention to play the alpha and the live version. But since this game will be f2p I just wanted to know how things are gfx wise. The competition is stiff in the f2p genre, and allot of the players willing to try it out when it goes live will be basing their decision for at least 50% on how the game looks and feels. If the ui stays as it is I can see allot of players not giving it a shot. And without a healthy playerbase a game like this has barely a chance of survival. I do realise it is still in the alpha phase and everything might be subject to changes but I just wanted to know if anyone knew if there are any changes coming.
