I can't get over how quickly Square upped their CGI game. Just compare the cutscenes from FFVII to FFVIII

All the human characters look like action figures with visible joints and painted on eyes and mouths

spoiler(they still made sure to animate Tifa's boob jiggle though)
, then in VIII they look like recognisably human beings.

The middle row is Parasite Eve 1 and 2 so they're relevant to the conversation too. PE1 was released in between FFVII and FFVIII and uses the same realistically proportioned style FFVIII went for and its cutscene character models feel like a midpoint between FFVII and FFVIII

Resident Evil 2 versus Resident Evil 3

I guess I was confused because those aren't Square titles.

I just happened to have that comparison image on hand
