Personally I think it's more that the characters are crafted to look faithful to their N64 designs, which were themselves the result of that console's limitations in terms of geometry, so you get a lot of really stylised characters that look neither "real" nor like a modern cartoony game.

I'm fine with this myself, as it helps the game feel nostalgic yet modern.
