Ha! This makes me think of the episode of 30 Rock when Tracey wants to make a pornographic video game. Look, if you can get "immersed" in something like that without being creeped out, more power to you, windbane and whoever else thinks it's not a big deal.

Uncanny Valley effects some people more than others , but I think it effects everyone on a subconscious level to some degree. It's almost impossible for it not to be a little jarring if you're truly engrossed in a story, but some subtle inhuman visual or character flaw makes any empathy you could have, feel unnatural. It's not a matter of personal taste in visuals. It's a matter of becoming emotionally committed to a piece of work, only to have your suspension of disbelief constantly shattered. Thus, causing the matrix to collapse, because humans can't except things that do not sit with their views on reality.
