Allright, seeing that I've come across the fact that I do not fully embrace realism as my favourite thing, as all my prima artist examples use a realism that is further away from realism than I expected: I'm going to dive into SUGGESTION.
So, here goes!
Where I had found an article about the realism in videogames, I found another one stating exactly the same thing. I guess more recent (3D!) videogames are unable to 'suggest' things, not sure how to explain this, but it's more like: all textures, area and surfaces are clearly defined to be rendered by the engine. This leaves more or less no room for any 'undefined' areas that can tickle the imagination.
This is why I love 2D and not 3D. A brushstroke in itself can suggest a lot of things. A plane in a 3D environment does not.
