Because once you go 3D, you might as well just go modern 3D.
It's why, amusingly, the PS1 game that is probably the most highly regarded today is a 2D game (Symphony of the Night).
3D games just age like milk and people have no interest in old ones.
- ajmurmann 5y agoThis is definitely it and impacts even later games. I've been playing through the Yakuze series and been loving it. Once I got to the oldest non-remastered game, Yakuza 3, I just couldn't get myself to play it. That game came out on PS3 in 2009. Yet graphics and controls made this a pain.
- incrudible 5y agoIf the look of early 3D doesn't appeal to you, sure. You probably would have had to experience it at the time. That said, I do feel the mix of 2D sprites and basic 3D that many of the JRPGs (like Xenogears) went for did age well and works best at that resolution, without texture filtering.
