Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ This clears in a weekend (1.8h main story), pick it up without derailing anything else in your backlog.
- ✓ You like squeezing every drop out of a game, there's a deep completionist path here (1.8h main vs 95.2h to fully clear).
- ✓ You want to master matchups and execution against other players or the CPU.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want a game with real longevity. This is over almost as soon as it starts (1.8h main story).
- ✗ You mostly play solo story content. This is built around versus play.
Track Arms in your backlog and see where it ranks against everything else you're playing.
