Support NeoGAF

[reelbigtink]

I'm moderately interested and will probably pick it up mostly for fun but partially to support a new IP in hopes that good sales will lead to more cool stuff like this.

Yes, I might purchase this game depending on the my experience with the Testpunch event.

Looks like a fun package, I'm interested. I was on the fence before, and a bit put off by the ARMS themselves. Body horror feelings. I think I'm over it now, though.

I didn't get that at all from your post, but my bad if I interpreted it incorrectly.

SF V absolutely had single player content at launch though... it was just really lackluster (and no arcade mode, which is inexcusable).

It made more sense if you read (or don't, it's trash) this post that I quoted, that you then quoted me.

It was already on my list, the Direct definitely made it more interesting though. Hopefully the game will still be alive when I pick up a Switch next year.
Edit: Ah yeah, gotta say I'm not in for $60, but by the time I pick it up it'll hopefully be at least $40. I know Nintendo can be unpredictable with price drops, but still...

I will be the first to admit that when I saw Splatoon, I thought, this will be the biggest garbage that will ever be released, and now its like one of my favourite IPS ever. So I had an open mind to this Arms, and after this trailer, I am definitely on board. 1st Day for me.

 

[Shaii]

Yeah, I went from a solid meh, almost not bothering to watch the direct to: "ok this is actually a fully fletched and fun looking game".

Quite the turnaround

No, I get that and I agree his point was silly. I simply interpreted a portion of your post incorrectly. You cleared it up, so it's all good.

The game looks better now

This tweet sums it up

 

[dead souls]

Zero interest. Just not the type of game I want to play and not what I want from Nintendo.

So the arms are basically a loot system. Having this at tournaments would seem to be a nightmare, I guess the ones with bonus strength would be banned or something


Anyways art direction is honestly appaling, same with the music(like every sound in the game is oh and ha, that's lame, Mario already covers having iconic non-speech sounds). Every character looks like a Wonderful 101 npc or something, I still can't believe such uninspiring characters are made by the company that has gaming's biggest icons. Gameplay looks very monotonous, even considering the different arms and attributes every match still looks like a battle of attacks with fairly high startup and cooldown. Sure they got more modes than SFV but who the hell cares about Spring Man. Will try this at my friend's who buys everything but doubt I'll ever consider it when I get a Switch

Update - Just pre-ordered this morning on Amazon. I thought the price might go up soon, because demand might uptick, and now they have my dollars.

It's not $60 on amazon? Hmmm

 

[wild wild rice]

Absolutely not.

I was sold on the reveal and I can't wait to play.

Went from "that looks kinda fun" to "holy shit I need this game now!"

It looks like so much fun.
