Looking at a game's water textures is a good indicator for whether or not the developers actually cared about the game they were making or not. Good looking bodies of water mean the devs had time to make sure everything looks nice, while bad looking water means that everything had to be thrown together without much thought. And yes, this thought comes from the "Amazing water" guy, but after really sitting with the image, I came to realize his autistic fixation with water made sense. Thus, it is something where I'll just let myself soak the textures in for a few minutes at least when I play.
