The problem I find with many older textures made in those days is there is far too much baked in detail (wrinkles, highlights, and shadows). Today, those types of details are added with normal, bump, or displacement maps, morphs, and other accessory maps that will bring out proper specular and highlighting. Standards have changed. A LOT.

Eyes. Oh, god, the eyes. So many eye textures that have a shadow over the top part of the sclera and iris to simulate light from above being shadowed by the brow and eyelid, reflections on the iris/pupil, argh.
Speaking of Vic4, it's partially true, indeed, but there's a free exception:
