I know I am being harsh I told my friend about Stardew Valley and Terraria. He literally said "This games look trash and old. Who TF even play this? I bet It doesn't even have good story or gameplay". Then, I suggested Blasphemous and Nine Sols because he like souls-like. He never even tried just see the trailer said "Both look bad I will never play with that Ugly graphics". Yea, He said beautiful Pixel Art cutscene ugly.
And he's very wrong too!
Plenty of people love pixel art, and that's cool; it's just not applicable to everyone.
Personally, I struggle playing platformers/isometric games and don't like pixel art, so neither of the games you listed fit me in any capacity (seriously, they cause me pain on a near-physical level), and I would struggle playing them even if I liked the genre overall (and I do like sandboxes, for example; just make it fully 3-dimensional and add some decently detailed textures, at least!).
So, the point I'm trying to make is that, graphics is important, not necessarily in terms of realism, but in terms of catering to the respective audience. People do care about how the game looks, and while you'd prefer pixel art (and it too can be good AND bad), I'd strongly prefer realism, and as good as the game can be, I'm not gonna play it if it's retro-oriented.
You would have told me earlier xD. Even though I love playing Boomer Shooters and Movement FPS but sometime they give me motion sickness because of View Bobbing or Motion Blur. So, I can feel you.
Oh yeah, boomer shooters are certainly not a good fit for everyone :D
Quite a niche genre, actually, just that followers are very vocal
Naah, I actually love them but sometime(only sometime) they gave me Motion Sickness. It's just not Boomer Shooters when I played other FPS game like Combat Master or Titanfall 2. It also happen.
Ahh, no, platformers and isometric games deliver me a constant stream of discomfort and unwillingness to play :D
Accessbility come first any other thing. So, Enjoy game you can enjoy.
