There is a niche for players who want realism above all. Sometimes there is a studio that fills the niche, sometimes not. And while the team is usually very passionate, they simply don't have the resources to match to polish of AAA titles. I don't know what the state of the art is for 4X games. You can probably find realistic wargames though.
