During summer time I like to walk around my local forests at noon while listening to the Crysis soundtrack and think about just how perfect they got the outdoor photorealism in so many locations.

Why do procedural/generated textures still fail to look convincingly photorealistic compared to real photo textures in so many games? So many hours dedicated to crafting procedural textures in things like substance, yet often they just look as plastic or cartoony as the shaders they slap onto them.
