I like Pixar's character design, so I just can't accept that cartoony style = automatically bad.
That being said I cannot disagree that most cartoony style in games are really shit. They just look low effort and seems like they're only doing it because they don't know what art style to use. Civ games, for example, I surely can't say that semi-edutainment historical games cannot use cartoony art style since there some history books with cartoon illustrations out there aimed at all ages, and they do look good. But Civ games' art style is more creepy than goofy.
I've also heard Overwatch being claimed as "influenced by Pixar" but all I see in promotional art and screenshit are crap pseudo-anime girls rendered in feature film-tier 3D.
People already said enough about WoW.
