ARMS is a game that really shows how important it is to have a good amount of content to make a great game. I would by no means call it a bad game, it has a good OST, characters, and is charming in its own way, but it doesn't provide nearly enough content to be a $60 Nintendo game. For the price of about four copies of Hollow Knight, one would expect a game to have sufficient content to keep the player entertained, but ARMS fails to deliver. It's a fun novelty, but the glaring lack of things to do makes it wear off fast. There is potential for a sequel which takes everything good about ARMS and make a genuinely great game however.
