I haven't even attempted to implement AArch64 and only browsed the ISA, but it's all of these things. Instructions are many and some semantics that are more painful, like handling flags which are exactly like mini registers and the load pair/store pair instructions I mentioned. Also, there are more addressing modes which puts pressure on the load path. All this complexity hurts even more when it comes to verification.
