Well Halo Infinite is said to have a $500 million budget but it doesn't mean anything cause they evidently wasted a ton of money cause they couldn't figure out what they were doing and the game development was in hell and it took forever, yet it's still a dated looking game with a ton of content missing that you'd expect in the average Halo game. So maybe Nintendo also spent $120 million on BOTW but that game also took forever so maybe they also rebooted it several times and wasted a ton of money, doesn't change the fact that it's a cheap looking game in the end compared to other modern AAA games. 

BOTW is a Wii U game. It has AAA Wii U graphics. It's not really possible for it to look significantly better than it does while running all the simulations that it does to achieve its physics and chemistry systems in an open world setting.

I mean, would you criticize a PS4 game for not looking as good as a PS5 game?

Well yeah, but I already talked about Nintendo's choice to stick with weak hardware because they haven't adapted well to HD game development as it's far more intensive. It doesn't mean they won't be compared to what others are making.
