R6 is in between an Arcade game and a Tactical Competitive Game
I think R6 is very far from an arcade game.
I actively played R6 and Overwatch for a while and then stopped. After a pause, coming back to Overwatch was no problem; below Master pretty much everyone is playing casually. Coming back to R6 however, was overwhelming. Everyone is playing strategically optimally, you have to play a lot, follow the meta, and be very focused to be able to play in mid to high ranks.
At least that’s my experience. R6 is not what I consider an arcade game.
