But, it also depends on the type of game. Mass Effect 2 needed realism. The game carries such gravitas that to go with a stylized version of reality would have been a disservice.

I actually don't agree with Mass Effect 2.
But I guess "realism" is subjective in this matter. I mean you start off the game, or at least I did with glowing scars which gets better or worse depending on if you are good or bad in the game.
From that point on, realism is kind of out the door.
But I guess you mean they went for more humane proportions.
