Sliders are the best way of doing things to suit all sides. Or filters when it comes to lighting. I do agree that most of the things look too sterile, and adding dirt after two steps off road doesn't really help in that department. What Count Turnipsome did seems perfect, and I assume not that hard to do coding-wise.
D&D always seemed more like a high fantasy adventure, but since we moved past alignments we can also move on to more gritty settings
If not, I'm sure there will be plenty of mods to allow us to make it just perfect for each of us.
