When did you first notice that grafix had diminishing returns?

You can't have a serious conversation about graphics when you say higher resolution makes things worse, its's honestly the first time i have heard  a opinion like that. You seem not to be into realistic graphics, which most games that push the envelope are aiming for realistic graphics so i guess it makes sense. It is impressive being able to that in zelda, but we have seen that before on 360/ps3, and most games are doing that now.

To be fair, I've kinda felt that way about a game once, that a higher resolution made it look worse, because the added level of detail just turned otherwise blurry graphics into slightly uncanny valley material. That game was just a remaster, though (Shadow of the Colossus, PS2 x PS3), so I guess in that case it makes a little bit more sense for the argument. Definitely a very strange thing to say... I only wish Breath of the Wild ran at 1080p, it would look at lot better.

Very strange indeed. I was watching some 4k on Resident Evil 4, Ninja Gaiden, Mario galaxy 2 and MGS2 and it's kind of crazy how much Resolution plays a role in making graphics look better, they look better then most 360/ps3 games.
