I thought it looked like a PS4 cutscene tbh. I think if you play video games then you're primed to notice the facial animation techniques.

Yes, I couldn't help but feel like they were very well rendered video game characters surrounded by live actors, and I had to force myself back into the movie. I still have no idea what happened in the first scene Tarkin appears in.

I think this is why my two teenagers noticed it immediately when he first appeared. They instantly recognized being in a cutscene. It took me an extra second to go through an internal "Wait, he's dead, right?" moment.
