There was that demo trailer back during GCN I think, for Zelda, where Nin went for realism. It was actually pretty great looking, at least back then. They obviously dropped that idea and have steered clear ever since, so the odds they ever play with that idea again would seem slim.

Yeah they don't avoid realism entirely; Twilight Princess pursued a more grounded look for its time, and Metroid typically aims for a semi-realistic approach, albeit in a sci-fi setting. But yeah, 90% of their games are highly stylized, and I doubt very much that will change with Switch 2.

Yes, Nin does dabble in realism at times, but never goes hardcore. It looked like that was the approach for that old Zelda demo, but being Nin they decided against it. Like RDJ says, never go full realism!
