Needs more FPS, but if Ocarina of Time were ever actually remade, this is indeed almost exactly what I would imagine/want it to be.
Minus the cel-shaded look of course. The visuals here look amazing but not every Zelda game needs have that cartoony look to it, especially an OoT remake. I just hope the next-gen entry for this series goes back to the Ocarina/Twilight style.
Make a choice. Either you do stylized graphics or realistic. Mixing the two looks horrendous. Mayonnaise and spaghetti are both lovely, combining them however, is disgusting.

Someone used shader art style in unreal Engine 5 , they could make own game in this art style like ni no kuni 3 ?
Every 3d renderer, be it a game engine, 3D program, even CAD programs, can do cell shading.
Normally a Phong or Lambert lighting model measures every surface’s angle to the light source, so you get this gradual light. What cell shading does is use just a few bands of light, and every angle that falls within a certain band gets the same color. Cell shading requires far less expensive dot products, that’s why a Nintendo Switch with potato hardware can run giant worlds.

Regular 3D games use a Phong or Lambert lighting model which measures every surface’s angle to the light source, so you get this gradual light. Cell shading uses just a few bands of light instead, and every angle that falls within a certain band gets the same color. How many color bands you choose is up to you. It’s not that different from vectorizing an image.
Cell shading requires far less expensive dot products, and you generally don’t even need to use any textures for most assets, since the style looks fine without them. Cell shaded games run ridiculously well and can have a tiny install footprint due to the lack of textures, you can almost endlessly optimize them with lookup tables. That’s why a Nintendo Switch with potato hardware can still render giant 3D worlds.

Mixing stylized graphics with realistic graphis like is like putting Mayonnaise on Spaghetti. Both lovely in their own right, combining them however, is disgusting.
The only 2 things that Nintendo games really benefit from are higher FPS and higher higher resolutions than found on Switch. The moment “modders” start messing with assets and lighting, they mess up the style of the game and make it worse.
I have always found it a bit pretentious that these modders operating from their basement, thinks they’re better at stylizing a game than Nintendo. Newsflash, you’re not.
