Uncanny Valley is just an imaginary concept to deal with some people’s uncomfortable-ness with dealing with characters in a game or robots that are made to appear close to realistic human.
Uncanny valley is the stupid dead stare that every character has. It has nothing to do with people thinking they're real. It's that they look real, but the eyes are disturbing to look at because they're dead.
This is the reason I don't like hyper-realistic characters. It's completely because no one can get the eyes to look human. If characters looked like that one AI pop star that no one can tell is computer generated, I'd freaking love the hyper realism. Unfortunately, gaming companies don't spend cash like that on character development, though the sims certainly should.
