The game can be casual or hardcore as that's entirely up to the player. Smash can be nothing but 1v1 no items if you choose, while Splatoon can be Turf Wars only. Doesn't mean Smash can't still be a party game and Splatoon still a competitive one. That's generally the beauty of videogames, you can play them how you want to, and I don't see ARMS being any different in that regard. It's no harder to play than Smash, hell it's even easier having only one way to attack, yet still has enough depth for the hardcore players to git gud. Not saying it's gonna attract soccer moms or grandpas though. |
The easiest way to get your ass beat in this game is to just start swinging your arms around like crazy. The movement, switch targets, consistently nailing targets, curving punches, learning that you have to keep moving, jumping, blocking, special attacks, three different weapon options for each ARM ... I mean there's *a lot* here.
I'd say it's a bit harder than games like Smash or even Soul Calibur/Tekken were you can button mash and actually win now and again.
ARMS, you really have to know what you're doing pretty much all the time, even the "simple" volleyball game is pretty hard, lol, it's not some easy bonus stage that you might expect.
That's not a knock on the game, it's a good game, but people who see these commercials may be getting the impression that it's Wii Boxing ... it's nothing like Wii Boxing at all.
