I'm guessing this 'living world' feeling has more do to with any little attention paid to such things as idle animations (leaves falling, water rippling, birds and other animals, rain, snow, etc.) than to the quality of the graphics itself. Basically, things that many 3D games of other genres (KOTOR, Morrowind, Psychonauts, etc.) automatically have.
