After reading this, I understand why motion controls are the superior option compared to traditional. Two big takeaways I got were --
- Curving punches are analog. The more you curve your wrists, the more the punch itself curves. That seems like it's going to be too awkward to use with traditional controls even if they used an analog stick to trigger curved punches.
- You can widen, shorten and direct the grab area for throws by twisting your wrists like with curving punches. Again, seems like something that would be noticably more inconvienent using traditional controls
