Compared to Silent Hill and Siren, Fatal Frame's never gone for absolute photorealism and its female protagonists have basically always looked more like Japanese idols. Not sexualised*, but very pretty with overdesigned outfits you wouldn't probably realistically wear when exploring an abandoned old Japanese mansion
*That is until Fatal Frame 5, the last game in the series as of now. It's absolutely full of bouncing boobs everywhere, even on the ghosts, many of whom are buxom babes with tons of cleavage showing. The game also had a wet t-shirt mechanic that allowed you to see the characters' underwear through their clothing
True, I guess for modern standards looking like an average idol or athletic woman is average to gamers compared to the various AI generated abominations they keep making
