Doesn't really work without something like the PC, where you got shit tons of research you can do on builds and guides etc, streaming and a means for literally anyone to play no matter how cheap the hardware is.
On top of that, most games built like a MOBA will only be able to try and imitate Dota or LoL at a pinch, and not too well since they have forever and a half of build up and development.

Best case for a MOBA on consoles is to just throw it in like a game mode to supplement something, like Future Cop: L.A.P.D. had a Moba multiplayer versus mode alongside a co-op campaign.

Bayonetta as an IP is still SEGA property even if Nintendo funded the second game. I'd like to see Nintendo try their hand at an action game ala DMC, MGR, or any other game you'd expect to be made by Platinum.

On one hand, it seems impossible for Nintendo to be able to pull that off, given the limitations of the Switch.
But on the other hand, they did make a shooter where precise aiming isn't required to do well, so who knows, maybe they'd actually do it.

A LoL clone with a terrible camera, a dumbed down RoR-but-PvP clone and a game that failed once and got rebooted to fail again as it's exactly the same: missing the point of Mobas entirely and just copying what the combat sounds like when simplified.

Demigod would be a better alternative to consider, for those to smart for Dota. It just straight up didn't get popular.

In a real fighting game the neutral tends to dissipate as a player wins it and gets in on the other player for the offensive (this is where frame traps and mix-ups and the like come in). ARMS is played almost entirely at a range, you can't call it a neutral when it's the whole fucking game.

Honestly, I would really like it if nintendo would do a minecraft clone, one that isn't blocky and allows you to create happy upbeat worlds and populate them as you wish, maybe with various species from Nintendo Canon, but nothing you couldn't imagine in like Mario Kart, such as Pikmin,Toads and Koopas. Creating a functional village how you want.

Just checking some of the first few results from a quick search:
>A fighting game is a video game genre in which the player controls an on-screen character and engages in close combat with an opponent, which can be either an AI or controlled by another player.
>Fighting games are a form of action game in which two on-screen characters engage in one-on-one combat. Fighting games frequently feature unarmed fighting, such as boxing or martial arts, but can also include fighting with weapons like swords or guns. Players are given options to control the on-screen characters and engage in close combat with opponents.

ARMS might not be a traditional fighting game (read: derivative or clone of Street Fighter), however it is a fighting game. Combos don't make something a fighting game, nor does a 2d side scrolling perspective. It's a game about people fighting, its literally in the fucking name.

Not even that, you can easily classify it as what's mostly known as "arena fighter" or those fighting games that use a big 3d space like Gundam Versus, J-Stars, those naruto games, etc. But I guess to purists those don't count as fighting games either.

Isn't fighter more of a personal definition. Like I honestly am fine with calling it a fighter, and to most people I think it would fit that definition, it's functional and serves it's purpose, no reason to get anal about it, at the same time, if you are some evo guy maybe the term fighter isn't functional for ARMS because your set definition of fighter exists solely as Street-Fighter like games, and since fighting games that aren't like street fighter tend to lack the kind of depth you guys are looking for.

tl;dr you both win the internet fight stop fighting plz.

there's no rules to be able to call a game a fighting game. i don't know where that shit came from. if the characters hit eachother and it's marketed as a fighting game it's a fighting game. maybe not the type of fighting game that pops into your head when you read the words "fighting game", but a fighting game nonetheless.

Everyone has different functional definitions based on taste, using the term fighter for some people is an easier way to categorize this game, at least until it becomes more standard and we can sub-categorize it as something more accurate.

The fact of the matter is, for most people just calling it a fighter is the path of least resistance, and no one individual controls language so as to what you may view as the unwashed masses are concerned, ARMS is a fighter, to those who need more precised definitions, it is not.

TOP KEK, you just made up some specific criteria so that only the fighting games you likes could be called fighting games.
Fighting games are about a character fighting another, that's all.

I'll entertain you. Let's say that ARMS is a fighting game, okay? You've convinced me. If I asked for fighting game recommendations, you could throw me Arms and I'd try not to laugh, in fact I'd take you seriously enough to hear you out. What then, gives ARMS any sense of depth or competitiveness to it? What latent mechanics or ingenuity is present in ARMS that makes it better, deeper, or more mechanically intense than other fighting games? Why wouldn't I choose to play Tekken, Street Fighter, Guilty Gear, or even KI and Blazblue over ARMS?

Why do leftists like to "win" arguments by arbitrarily changing the definition of well established terms.
Genres are terms that are given to a game by the community of consumers to allow other consumers to easily determine what gameplay mechanics they can expect from their purchase. But fags like you have to run around playing with words and fucking up the entire system for everybody. Just so you can feel "smart" for picking apart abstract concepts.
>This game simulates a virtual world so it's a simulation game
>You play a role in this game so it's a roleplaying game
>You jump in this game do it's a platformer
>There is nothing physically preventing you from playing this game at parties so it's a party game
Congratulations, now every game is every genre and you've completely ruined a useful classification system for everyone else.

Play the game yourself, or wait for it's full release, or lurk more these threads. At each testpunch I managed to discover something new and play a little better, we can't really speak about depthness before the game is even out.

Except no one is calling Super Mario titles roleplaying games or anything but platformers, people aren't calling Overwatch a fucking shoot em up?

Seriously what kind of fucking strawman is that. Shoot em ups are basically bullet hells and galaga clones. RPGs either are defined by being a derivative of D&D and other RPGs adapted into video game form, or the existence of a sort of statistic or ability score system. Overwatch is a FPS game, Mario is a platformer, fuck off with your baseless logic. Super Mario is a game where you platform, Overwatch is a shooter in the first person perspective, and ARMS is a game where you are competing and fighting in a combat sport.

>>378430880
Also thats absolutely false. All RPGs are derivative of Dungeons & Dragons any other Tabletop RPGs, and were at least originally an attempt to apply those systems to a video game format. This is more apparent in earlier RPGs and MUDs, which exist as a means to be "an RPG that doesn't require other players or a DM". RPGs have been disconnected from this as time went on, mostly due to RPGs, which in themselves were a vast misinterpretation of poorly translated early D&D rulesets, with weird confusions coming out of it like Bahamut (who was definitively one of the most virtuous and "good" gods in D&D) as a big evil dragon, or slimes being weak (when they are pretty terrifying and dangerous if used correctly in D&D), mostly due to the fluff (lore) being poorly translated while the crunch (mechanics) coming through fine.

By your idiotic definition I could make a boxing video game and it wouldn't even be a fighting game. It isn't a specific type of fighting game, but it most definitely is one. Fighting is a very broad genre. The "2d combo heavy SF2 clone" type of fighting game is a sub-genre.

SFV has problems but most of the hate towards it is a meme, it's still a viable competitive fighter to get into, just be prepared to be fucking irritated by how few defensive options there are and how strong throw mixups can be. Fuck Capcom for that.

Easier execution was a huge step in the right direction, though. Lowered the skill floor while keeping all the other fundamentals intact so you still have to learn to get any better, just most of your time learning isn't spend on 1f links and FADC.

Smash is not the Street Fighter-style of fighting game. It was never intended to be the uber competitive clusterfuck that it ended up becoming. It's intended to a fun multiplayer party fighting game where you get to see what happens when your favourite nintendo characters fight it out, not what the shitstain that melee has become.

No one is getting confused or turned off by fighters because ARMS and Smash Bros are considered by some to be fighters.

Like, I get why people bitch about post modernism logic, but in this case you actually have to prove that there is harm being done, in the case you pointed out everyone can call any game a simulation, rpg, platformer and party game, but people don't. Why? because people are good at cessing out pattern even if we can't recognize it fully why we recognize it as a like group.

The post modernist argument, that everything can be interpreted in a infinite amount of ways is bull, not because it's false but because it's not useful. Something needs to be interpreted in a way that is useful and what you are arguing is that this definition is useful to me, so it must apply universally, what you have to disprove is that the term fighter isn't useful to us.

I'll ignore the fact that the quality of ARMS as a fighter has nothing to do with its genre and try to answer you earnestly.

It's a game for people wanting a slower paced match that rewards positioning and strategy over mashing, since you have minimal means of offense which have relatively small hitboxes and are also your means of defense. Less blocking and throwing out attacks, and more dodging, maneuvering and landings counter hits
>>
>>378431045

It's a fighting game in the barest sense. It's got corners, health bars, combos, wakeups, AAs (even if every character has the same damn AA), somewhat of a neutral, you get the idea. It's missing a few other core concepts and its combos are easy modo pre-made bullshit but for its simplicity, I like to call it the "tutorial fighter". It's the fighting game people should play first to learn the most basic of executions before graduating to something else.

If you could accurately label all fighters in different levels of complexity could you show me which ones are more fighter or less fighter based on that.

I just told you. A lot of people are asshurt over the execution barrier being lowered but it's just because they're being exposed, their specialist combos aren't unique to them anymore and they can't gain an advantage solely by being the best at execution, a concept that should not have taken so much of a large precedent over SFIV. The other complaints such as lack of defense options are valid, but everything else like the game's pitiful launch status and balance issues have improved fantastically.

Since retardnon fighter want some depth, here's what I've discovered so far (I'll list everything, even obvious shit):
- short hop/full hop
- dash/full dash either aerial or ground
- multiple ways to charge your punch (guard, landing with both arms retracted, full or mid ground dash), so if the opponent is trying to recover from a grab you can short hop and have your stun punches ready when he'll stand up for instance
- charged punch can have multiple effects : screen splash, stun, burn, ...
- directional influence on your punches
- aerial or ground grabs
- can counter punch and grabs by punching them
- can stun or reduce's attack of opponent's Punches by punching into their string/arm
- curved punch can break the guard depending on the type of punch
- you can air dash out of grab with a few chars
- character dependent ability (ex: flying with mechanica, double jump with Ribbon Girl, Healing guard with Mummy, ...)
- you can automatically dash after landing if you hold the dash button before landing
- ending lag of punch is determined by the distance it travelled
The game can already be played in a fast-paced way, just imagine how it could be in a few months after people had all their time to discover new things.

>>378433806
I will be legit surprised if ARMS sells anywhere close to Splatoon. I think ARMS works well and has a lot of appeal, but since it's max number of players is only 4 in any instance, it feels like it'd have a harder time gaining attention through word of mouth.

Nah, keep it kid-friendly. A cyberpunk future world populated by androids. You're a Fixer, whose job is to go around and fix infrastructure. You unclog the sewers, repair the elctrical grid, close gaps in cyber security, etc. caused by Trogs, ugly organic things that cause chaos and dismay.

>>378429504
>ARMS is played almost entirely at a range, you can't call it a neutral when it's the whole fucking game.
Not that guy. But that's not really true from the look of things.

For an example, with Minmin you can do a long side curve with the Ramram making them evade to the opposite side.
As they're avoiding the Ramram they throw a punch(es) for extra protection in order to compensate.

Quickly dash in and kick away their punch and do a close range jab with your left arm Megawatt. That's naturally already a charged dragon arm from before.
They're disabled with electricity. Grab them from close range.

This is but one example. But the point being, there are a lot of advantages to getting in close. Punches/grabs connect faster when you're up close. Which is typically essential to combo off of disabled arms, electricity, stun, or wind. And speaking of combos, you can combine elements like disabling with electricity, sending them flying with wind, and end with an air combo.

Not to mention that you can deflect arms by countering with guarding which can easily set you up for close quarters plays. Even if almost no one in the Testpunch actually ever used the guard countering or even ARM charging.

But yeah. There is almost certainly more to the game than you're assuming. But to what extent only time will tell.

Genres are super fluid; trying to pigeonhole everything is stupid. You can be a fighting game and a party game at the same time. You can be a fighting game without having all the same elements of SF2.
