Also, I prefer DS art style to Halo Infinite's. Destiny has also far superior art style and direction. I n my opinion, of course.

Honesty Hour, Current Gen Games that show that Halo Infinite Graphics should have been better(Still could?)

4K and rock solid 60fps will swallow lots of system performance.
But what I missed was vegetation and debris. It annoys me that you're always running around on a golf green and this time you had just crashsed your space ship and it really didn't look like a crash site. It's too clean.
And not even a big heavy warthog jumping out a cliff could put a dent on a muddy surface. I was at least expecting some last gen Motorstorm tire tracks.
No moving water or even splash sounds when walking over water.
It just missed a lot of things that makes the world believable.

There's just no way I can look at this game and not be disappointed. Well it's open world, but we've had plenty of great looking open world games this gen and this didn't look significantly better than any of those. Well it's gotta run on the Xbox One, well that doesn't bode well for those saying that the need to run on inferior hardware won't hold back games. Well it's not out yet, but I can't think of a single example of a game looking radically better when it releases in just a few months.
I mean I'll still play it because I like Halo, but my hype for next-gen is at an all time low

Simply because it was presented as a next gen game showcase! It should have been better to be honest. If it had been presented as a current gen demo showcase of a game that's at least a year away then it would have been unfair. But this is a game just a few months away from launch and is the main showcase game for next gen gaming.
While I agree with your point, DS is an absolutely terrible example. Not only is it running at 1080p, but there's also absolutely nothing going on in it the vast majority of the time. A better comparison would be something like Far Cry 5 which is already 4k30 on XBX.
Is there confirmation that Infinite will even target 60fps on last gen?
So, a 60fps open world game is going to get the same requirement for graphical fidelity as a 30fps one?
Yeah, I suppose that accounts to a degree for the 60 fps target on Xbone? I thought performance looked excellent in that footage. Unfortunately visually it was really a mixed bag. Even that Exomecha game in the pre show looked more impressive in many ways, although I wonder if gameplay looks like that currated footage. But yeah, I agree with the OP that there are many games that look more impressive graphically this gen. The quality of some of the terrain rendering, especially the textures, falls short.
It is launching alongside Cyberpunk...and that won't be a particularly flattering comparison visually. But performance wise I think they have hit a good target.

something that bugs me is that the scenery looks so gray. I undestand that being an artificial shouldn't look like a natural cliff but looks so dull, maybe it's poor draw distance but a good art direction could have soften the look. Ghost of Tsushima looks astonishing, looks like crafted to not be hurt by draw distance.
Because is the flagship game of Xbox. Because Xbox is the MOST POWERFUL CONSOLE EVER. You can't brag about that and show a game like that. The game looks fine, yes. But for the most powerful console ever created by human beings? Come on, dude.
If the 60fps one is running in the most powerful console ever then I say it has even bigger expectations on it.
That screenshot is quite disingenuous, here is how Death stranding actually runs at 4k on an rtx 2080 super with dlss on and -more importantly- off https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmZnMlCX7Dc
It runs at lower 50s with DLSS off and Halo runs with a stable 60 with much more going on in terms of explosions, enemies, etc.
Further the XSX will be lower spec than rxt 2080 super and ryzen 9. I think Halo looks appropriate for a native 4k/60 open world game.
Death Stranding on PC with RTX cards just shows how big of a deal DLSS is, RTX 30x0 cards will run circles around next gen consoles thanks to DLSS.
Those GTAV screenshots are basically motionblur.jpg.

Ghost of Tsushima and LoU2 look better than Halo Infinite right now on those 2 teraflops.
Yeah, but it runs on 7x less TFs, half the RAM, a crappy CPU and on an HDD
