Should Games Aim for Realism or Fun?

Some games chase realistic graphics and physics, while others focus on fun mechanics. Do you prefer ultra-realism like in simulators, or exaggerated, arcade-style gameplay? Which approach makes a game last longer for you?

If the game has realistic settings and graphics, the fun of playing doubles. I think game developers should be focus on developing games with realistic elements to make it fun

Publishers should aim to build realistic games that are fun to play. It doesn't matter how it is looked at as the most important thing is having a game that is complete and would definitely stand the test of time.
