realism in visuals just make everything else look less believable and disappointing. Like rubbish AI in 99% of games, poor collision, physics. When something is stylised and obviously not real you can live with and ignore the flaws.
But were so used to realism in every day life that the slightest thing will stand out even more is its not quite right.
Realism has its place in simulations, and you can still have stylized environments and worlds with realistic surface materials. The problem is that realism is kind of boring, especially for the artists that have to photograph everything, or grab it off of google and basicly copy whats already there.
