Artistic vision is better than effects 100% of the time. Adding raytracing to a game doesn't make up for a lack of artistic vision. Some reflections that I've seen in 500 other games without artistic vision don't compare at all to something like the whimsy of the Coral and the confusing organic nature that they never over explain in Fromsoft fashion, give people enough to trigger their imaginations, use music well, then let them run with their own thoughts about it. You create an experience from this, it creates emotions players are often unable to get any other way, whereas you don't with showing off how your belt buckles accurately reflect the room, literally nobody cares about that.
