They might momentarily enjoy the novelty of a motion game, but it's just a gimmick. When you get down to it, a lot of people enjoy just sitting on the couch twiddling their thumbs to get the character to do all the work.

It's not at all like a Wii style motion control. Gestures aren't merely mapped to button presses. You have precise control, so you can do something like swing a sword between a monster's shield and helmet.

That said, if the game is reducing the motion controllers to something like the Wii motion controls, then it is a gimmick, and you might as well be sitting on your couch.
