Lazy and/or bad developers, plain and simple. They've just been enjoying their leisurely stroll for years riding that cash cow. Meanwhile, Zelda is out here showing exactly what you can accomplish on older hardware. When you actually put effort into what you're creating.

several things actually.
gamefreak just isnt used to making 3d games. still. its wild to me that a dev team that gave us some of the best games, is struggling with modern hardware so much. still.
i guess the limited outsourcing and budget could be one.
remember pkn snap 2? cyberconnect made it. it was great. the models were also fine as hell.
People will buy it. There is no excuse. They are just giving people what they want.
