As you've noticed, we haven't only said that 3d engine sucks for the blocky graphics, but also in playability. Got better things to do than fiddle some camera all the time that gets stuck and trying to find all party members and cursing the view for not going to good spot in combat...
*edit*
What comes to me being hypocrite... imagination works with text based games of course since they leave pretty much everything concerning graphics to mind but doing 3d engine is forcing their own vision of the game up. Kind of like the difference with television and books. You've red books right?
And comparing which in my opinion pleases the eye more, 2d or 3d, I say 2d if those are the options. Too bad if you dont agree, thats your headache
