Yes, I actually thought of the snow in RDR2 as I wrote that comment! The beginning of RDR2 with the deep snow is one of the most impressive visual scenes in a video games so far, visually, to me. You could implement little bugs without all that much trouble, true. Maybe a better way for me to think about it is more like, the real world has an incredible diversity of appearances at a small scale, that's hard to reproduce in a video game. The bug isn't the part that causes trouble, it's the fact that every leaf looks different, some leaves are oddly discolored, some leaves have bug bites on them, some got a little torn up, et cetera.
