Could you build this?
No Developing realistic shaders involves advanced graphics engineering (GLSL/HLSL, volumetric raymarching, screen-space reflections, ray-traced ambient occlusion) and deep integration with game engine rendering pipelines.
What it would actually take: Requires expert GLSL/HLSL graphics programming, mastery of deferred rendering, shadow mapping, atmospheric scattering math, and screen-space or hardware raytracing algorithms, along with reverse-engineering the target game's graphics pipeline and asset injection mechanisms.
