Minor(ish since you know the other shows exist) spoiler:

Spoiler:

Arrow was originally going for semi-realism, it wanted to distinguish itself from Smallville by not being about super-powers / sci-fantasy but they obviously changed direction, Barry Allen (pre-Flash) gets a backdoor pilot mid S3 and then from S4 onwards, after The Flash itself started airing, Arrow is obviously part of the same universe with Metahumans, mystical stuff, eventually Multiverse etc. but that obviously changes the overall direction of the show.

Being fair though, stick with it, because while it sort of fumbled a bit trying to make that change initially, it allowed for some of the peak Arrow stuff IMO (Ra's Al Ghul storyline) which wouldn't have been possible without it becoming more... comic-y.
Heh, I won't be too bothered by the change, my "current" Arrow is probably the most serious thing I current watch regularly
Plus as a fan of DC comics, I had an idea things would move in that direction based on some of the episode titles.
