All the early Blizz games had some ugly fucking CGI. And that's not just a retrospective thing, they looked ugly back in the day as well. I remember thinking that with Starcraft, Warcraft 2, and Diablo.

The game was developed 2-3 years since 1994, they didn't have the time or budget to update the CG.

nobody played Blood for cutscenes

Pic related is one of my favorite games ever. All the cartridge or floppy versions have some great vector cutscenes, but all the CD-based ports use those damn pre-rendered videos that look cheap and stiff.

Game of that time should have done what Thief did and some other games did at the time: Voiced images as cutscenes. Not sure how cheap was 3D animation at the time.

the intro cutscene to Digimon World.
i mean not the CG fight of metalgreymon and metalmamemon, but the part of the cutscene where you see Hiro running to the square to play with his friends, that is some uncanny shit

You're on the money and it never really gets any better in that game. Subsequent games went for a more anime themed style and that lessened the contrast so badly

I fucking love shitty cgi, especially if the fmv shit looks grainy and blurry as fuck with artifacts. I can't express why I love those, but there's just something beautiful about low poly, stiff 3d animations.

There's not enough time in the world to make a good in-game cutscenes in that engine. It will always and forever be just about as shitty as the related video even in the best of scenarios of unlimited time and resources. CG was the right choice for the opening of NV as it could set the tone better.

Seeing the floating eyeball and chicken bones in the green sludge soup actually made me hungry. And the armor looked really cool. All the stronghold games had really neat cgi cutscenes like in Legends with the titlecard videos. The neutral/cold campaign with Siegfried had the best one, with the cozy castle in a middle of a blizzard. That reminds me, the 00s also had some pretty bad cgis like Oblivions opening.
