TotK really makes Switch feel dated

 I think people who don't bother by the difference do not play much AAA western games

It's not enough to make my impression of the game worse in any sense, but definitely makes me feel like it's time for a new console.

Or people who aren't bothered about it, simply can't be bothered about it? I can notice the difference, but it doesn't flip any sentiment about wanting to have a better visual performance. If in the future they decide to rerelease the game for switch 2, great, but what is available visually now is more than enough for me.

If I look for it, yeah I can definitely see the low quality texture, but while immersed in the game, the world setting is so beautifully executed that I can't be bothered with thoughts about Nintendo needing to step up in the graphics department

Can't relate. Luckily for me I found visual performance and photorealism absurdly overrated.

Having a blast of how vast and charming the world is and how much it improved from BOTW

Who is talking about photorealism?  I don't think anyone wants, and certainly nobody expects that from Nintendo games like Zelda. But, there's a lot more to graphics than that.  

When you talk about the game needing a better foliage, isn't like craving for realism in a sense?

Btw, I know that. That's why I have listed visual performance and photorealism as 2 separate things
