It's not the look that bothers me. I just want to actually play the games, not watch a 15 minute cinema cut scene every so often. If I wanted that, I'd just go watch a movie.

I just think the "looks like a video game" criticism has been used too often. It's become a generic canned response to anything that is obviously CGI. I think the trailer for Foundation looks amazing, and I haven't seen a video game look like that. But what do I know, I used to watch Buck Rogers. Same with video games. I grew up playing Final Fantasy and Zelda on the NES.
My concerns regarding Foundation are more story-based. This looks to be more "inspired by the Foundation books" than an adaptation of the books themselves.
