Borderlands isn't Cel shaded.

Yes it ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is. Are you trolling?

XIII had some great visual for it's time and it's perfectly captured the essense of a comic book.

cellshade is a visual style and if you don't like it then it's just that you don't like it.

Are you sure you're not confused with pixel games?

It's a type of rendering. The devs still have to make 3d models just like everyone else.

You're free to say that cell-shading looks ugly, that's your opinion, but calling it lazy makes you look like a jackass.

Oh, and if you want an example of a good looking cell-shaded game, try Guilty Gear Xrd. Probably the best looking fighting game on the market right now.

Necropolis looks alright in that style, even though the game itself is bland imo.

Don't mistake minimalism for laziness.

Good looking game: Models, textures, shaders.
Cel shaded game: Models, textures, shaders.

Where are the savings? What part requires less effort?
