I'm not even upset at the style itself, but its an expectation that if a modern game adopts a simple chibi style that they're at least going to balance that out with beautiful environments. It's the same philosophy behind people accepting open world games being lacking in terms of graphics compared to racing games.
You're doing less so you have room to fit in more. The problem is they're just doing less.
