Both overlook GAMEPLAY for visuals.
And I'm saying that visuals are what makes some games what they are. If MGS used a realistic style, you'd have Splinter Cell. Part of what makes Chrono Trigger so cool, are Toriyama's character designs and the personality that was added to them. Maybe in other genres things like character design and art direction aren't that important, but if these aspects are subpar in a rpg, then that is a huge flaw. RPGs are about immersion, and most people want to be immersed in a palatable environment.
