Why is it that when you watch a 3D animation in a modern video game cutscene, you get beautiful perfectly shaded models that blend into the background perfectly.

Yet anime CG always looks like it's from 2002. Even the best examples just have nice filters on top of student-tier modeling and lighting.

cute goldfish

because anime don't have $100 million budgets

or multi year long dev cycles

Budgets.

Because in a video game it's typically all 3D so there isn't going to be any visual clashing.

That's because CG in the context of anime is used, almost always, as a crutch and when realizing the scene properly in 2D is too difficult or costly for the producers to want to attempt.



Gantz has nice looking 3D but it's also ALL 3d so there wont be an awkward juxtaposing visual elements.

Watch more anime retard, or create a bait a little more original.

CGI in seasonal anime is used for cost saving most of the time.

but anons told me that Budget no yaiba had better CG than crappa

Video games has bigger budgets and longer deadlines. 

3d Video games has also been refined for decades. 

The anime industry really sunk their teeth into 3d just a few years ago, and they have shit budgets and hard deadlines.

Not enough money/time.

This shows that many studios are no longer using 3D/CGI to lighten the work of animators or because they are short on time.

The 3D fish was purely experimental or by "artistic" decisions of some genius in the studio and ended up in that abomination.

Another weird example was Mappa with CSM, the "priorities" of which scene to animate in 2D or 3D was always a mess all over the place.

I remember that they animated a scene of a guy getting up and preparing breakfast at the level of a movie and then in the final battle the animations were PS3 level

he cute

Amazing how low Gainax has fallen. KnY will never be a big hit no matter how much money is sunk into it.

I liked CGI fish way better than sleep guy's CGI train form in the movie.

Because it's done in a way that brings the cost down. CGI in anime is not used as a tool, its a cost cutting method.

I like this.
