I don't think that the realism is the way they are trying to go... as far as i can see, they are making stylized characters and not realistic ones... And for what i can see too is that not many people here had tracked games developments in their first steps, because are trying to make points on things that don't need it... the game models(especially the character ones) change over time in the project development, and rarely stay the same as the first one. Another thing is that sometimes the base models use helpers for reference so everything meets a standard (those platforms on the feet or "high heels" as some of here are calling them, could be one, per example so all footwear that has high heels can keep the same height).
