Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Predict Arms' Metascore

78, my first impression was pretty bad, but I liked it more from test to test.

Hmm, I low balled it with Splatoon and that bit me in the ass. I'm gonna go for 82

I'm gonna be pretty optimistic with a 91.

No, no it doesn't. And I honestly don't know why I'm even discussing it with you at this point; clearly someone with an Arms Avatar is just about as likely to admit its deserved sub-90 score than a republican is to admit a wall is a stupid idea.

Arms is a boring game with a very Nintendo premise that, if made by anyone else, would get ignored. If it gets a 90, it got it from a Nintendo bump- not through its own value.

 

You don't want to discuss because it would show that you're not as informed as you claim you are, though trying to say the game has no depth already shows you know nothing. Just as a start, the basic attack > grab > guard > attack triangle that is in most fighting games is here as one would expect, but one of many things new to the genre is how there's aiming involved via curving your punches. Since punches have range, movement and spacing are especially important as the further your opponent the longer it takes for your punch to reach them then return to you. I could go on and on with the many different mechanics, ARMS, characters, stages, and so ons but I've made my point already, there is undeniably depth to this game.

So preemptive denial, very well then!

It's a boring, over involved homage to Punch-Out. My prediction is an 82.

Overinvolved? Are you now saying it has too much depth!? Also 82 seems pretty high for a boring depthless game.

Uh ARMS does have depth. Now I'm even more doubtful that you truely looked at it!

I don't have a problem with you having that opinion of ARMS, but you can atleast acknowledge that if ARMS scores 90+ it's because the reviewers feel it deserves it, not because they're scared for some reason.

No, no it doesn't. And I honestly don't know why I'm even discussing it with you at this point; clearly someone with an Arms Avatar is just about as likely to admit its deserved sub-90 score than a republican is to admit a wall is a stupid idea.

You are the one not worth to discuss with, you have decided ARMS is boring because you say so and in case it suceeds is just because comes from Nintendo, if it gets good scores, is because critics are afraid of giving low scores to Nintendo (despire 1-2 Switch showing how big of a bullshit this nonsense argument is) what a trap you made lol meanwhile almost every single person that tried it thinks the game is super fun, including all the media, so make all the  excuses you want but you I'm afraid you are still wrong.
