Most* games nowadays are less immersive, for me. Literally just my opinion fam. Many do not take themselves seriously by having loony psychedelic colors, weird and totally unrealistic body shapes etc. But there is also a certain change in the genres which has occurred, games no longer posses any romantic qualities and they tend to take place in here and now or in not so distant future. This bit is very subjective of course but I have enough post modern in my real life and I don't need any more hookers, drug lords, skyscrapers, hackers, 21st century profanity and plain psychos. A few games featuring those would be fine and fun, but you get really bored and fed up with that stuff after your sixth or eighth encounter.
It seems like in general and on average game developers have started to put increasingly less effort into creating tangible and immersive environments in their games, it's as if games have less or no sense of being. As for me shitting, you've been disagreeing with me all along, did I tell you to stop shitting on me or my opinions? Feel free to love Dishonored, I can't force you to dislike it. I meant what I said, this is not trolling. I don't like it when guards have neanderthal heads in a game which presents itself as some kind of dramatic and mostly tragic 19th century novel.
