On the heels of Duke Nukem 3D, I distinctively remember Half-Life and Counter-Strike being "realistic enough" for me to feel like I was playing in actual places. Subsequently, no improvements in graphic quality has ever single-handedly added to my enjoyment since. #

Honestly, yeah

Video game graphics just feel so weird these days - just hyperrealistic stuff that's gonna render wrong in a few years and look dated

That said, I have been impressed by the successive computer graphics technologies on their own, like bump-mapping, but I have not kept playing a video game just because it had bump-mapping if it wasn't otherwise catching my attention.
