Exactly. We are talking someone who looks at a rendering of a person who IRL would be considered beautiful and they think beauty standards were lowered. We can only conclude that they see something you might not. That the way shadows interact with new Ashley's face, the fact that her smile brings out a hint of expression lines, that her eyes are less googly and more realistic, that her nose is slightly more pronounced, and so on. All these little things spell out a more real person than an otaku brained person has been conditioned to jack off to.
It might be nonsensical to you that any of the things I've listed would diminish someone's beauty. And it is. It only shows that the problem goes deeper than just being attracted to cartoons or having porn brain. That level of conditioning might mean that the real sex act is unattractive to them. The very hint that Ashley and Ada's faces are impossibly beautiful yet built around actual human skulls means they don't perfectly follow stylistic lines set forth by cartoonists. Therefore it's woke and pandering. They don't realize just how badly conditioned they've become.
Setting aside the whole wanting to fuck cartoons aspect, I do like that older stylized, semi-realistic but still anime console game aesthetic, it has its own charm.

At least when it doesn't fall into the same uncanny valley as MGS4
IIRC the CGI artist who made the first game's cutscenes had huge trouble making convincing looking white people since he didn't have references to work off of. The Silent Hill games definitely tried to lean more on realism with their character designs, which makes sense since they were trying to make their games have a believably American aesthetic
I think they aged well. I prefer, say, Link in Majora's Mask than some more modern anime games that try to 1:1 the proportions of modern light novel adaptations.
Okay, that would have been pretty hilarious. Leon doesn't start spouting one liners until he's infected and they gradually increase as the game goes on, Ashley is a fucking genius once they cure themselves, it's why all the bad guys are the way they are. Brilliant!
That's probably a part of the issue yeah, but they also find Ada to be uglier. And it's hard to even see much of a difference. Her cheeks are slightly rounder in the new version I guess.

The old Silent Hill Face phenomenon, I think back on it fondly

Same, though I can respect the transition to a more photorealistic style given that they've done a decent job with it.
I wanna know what Ashley does to keep that hair volume throughout all the horseshit she goes through during Resident Evil 4
that's how you know she's actually infected all along
Las Plagas is just a himbofication/bimbofication/thembofication treatment

I just assumed they found the new model less appealing because she looks older and their brain has been melted by hentai.
