Why games stopped using cel shaded graphics? Aside from new Zelda

>>379053686
time consuming to produce, and the current game market is heavily reliant on reducing time taken to make games because at the end of the day you can make a beautiful looking well crafted game but if it doesn't sell as well as something like a phone game with simple graphics it is a big loss in profit

>>379053686
It still gets used plenty, just not in AAA stuff

>>379053686
Because it looks abhorrent. Puke-tier art style

Because people are much more content with just slapping something together in Unreal 4 and calling it a day. Having an actual art style would take making the game with love, attention, and care, and there's very few cases of that within the modern industry.

I'm sure Borderlands 3 will be cel shading too. I really like these artstyle.

Also XIII was a fucking masterpiece. Back when Ubisoft was good devs.

Borderlands wasn't cel-shaded.

That's not cel-shading, that's just putting outlines on edges. The lighting itself is pretty typical.

Stop being fucking retarded. Cel-shading is just a more basic version of normal diffuse shading.

>Aside from new Zelda there aren't any big titles that came out recently and use it.
Guilty Gear Xrd, and it does it more masterfully:

The Little Witch Academia game has the best looking cell shading I've seen.

>>379053686
Because it looks shit.

>>379055134
No it fucking isn't, you jabberwok.

Cel shading generally looks like shit with modern resolutions, so people usually go with compromises like this >>379054906 these days, and I'm okay with that.

XIII is one of my favorite games of all time
Get feels everytime i see a screenshot of it
I'm really pissed of when i see that we can't play it without WXP or any older Windows version

I can't believe I haven't played XIII since I was a kid. That game was great.

>>379053686
Because except for XIII they look like giant steaming piles of shit.

The complete opposite. It takes a day or two to setup the shader properly, but after that you can reduce texture work by 1000% because your textures are going to be fucking solid colors anyways.
