When you’re playing a video game, every frame has to be rendered in real time with the decisions you’re making in game. The level of detail is limited to how quickly it can pump out frames. But cutscenes are largely static and can be prerendered. The game developer can use a giant server farm to render high quality cutscenes that wouldn’t be possible in the game engine.
