I’m replaying Dual Destinies, and I can sort of live with the handholding (boy is there a lot in the first two cases) but the biggest crime is that I can’t examine Charley thankfully AA6 fixed this

Dual Destinies is the worst game in my opinion and part of it is due to Charley being unexaminable. They make up for it in the next game though.

DD is worth it just for the DLC case, much like the first Investigations is worth it just for the flashback case.

I just started playing DD and woah, Turnabout Academy is really bad. I'm not even talking about the anime friendship stuff, it's just a mess of a case.

It's only half as much of a mess as the previous case with the nine tails was. Now, that case does not make any sense whatsoever from start to finish. And while i kinda liked the talisman girl from that case, i like mah hottest boye Robin way more, even archery dude isn't half bad in the end, and the breakdown in that case is amazing and exactly what was deserved.

I like the fact that when you first see the culprit, you're like "Oh, they totally did it," but then the case kinda introduces enough wrinkles along the way to make you doubt that initial thought. Kinda something I missed from SoJ and its smaller case casts.

Turnabout academy is almost the best case from DD, because it's from Athena's perspective and she has the best inner monologue. DLC is too good not to be best though.

Athena's case from DD was the highlight of the game for me followed by Case 2 with Apollo, unfortunately the POV switches back to Phoenix afterwards and it goes back to being a pretty typical AA game.

They should at least take Nick out of the main case games, his arc is already played out. A game where you switch between Athena and Apollo would be great (Athena's power is the best tho).

It’s pretty cool how different they made each character in a VN, personality-wise. Though Athena absolutely deserves her own game, preferably with Blackquill as her grizzled, more experienced partner.

Yes I also thought how it's really cool they can make a first person narrated game where the main character is always fulfilling a similar role (straight man, only sane man, audience surrogate) and still manage to make all the protagonists sound pretty different, with each having their own distinct personality.

More than anything, I just want Athena to drive a plot of her own. She kinda had some in Dual Destinies, but she shared that with Apollo.

Carlosologist posted:imo they should just save Phoenix for DLC cases and I guess the tutorial  Phoenix is fine, but he doesn't need to be shoehorned into every other protagonists' plot. That just makes the game an unfocused mess. AA4 had it worst but you can see shades of it in the later games too.

only thing is I have no idea what they're gonna do to make Athena's arc happen though. she didn't really change much from AA5 to AA6 since she was only in two cases so the book is wide open on what to do

I mean, they conjured up that Apollo grew up in another country for SoJ, so y'know. Just make up somethin' else for her.

We also have yet to see how she and Phoenix met, he even alluded to some sort of event happening then.

There's always digging up Athena's unmentioned father like SoJ did for Apollo.

It was great. Also liked that Phoenix pretty much didn't get the main protagonist role back after that, the entire second half of Chapter 5 turning him into the assistant.

Yeah having Nick on the DLC case is exactly what I meant by saying he should just be out of the main game cases. The dlc are usually one shot and outside of the story arc of the game, just bring him and either edgeworth or franziska with him for that nostalgia. About Athena: they gave Apollo a story arc two games after his first appearance so they are not shy of bringing up critical stuff and the n go "they just never mentioned this before".

My favorite part of either Athena case was definitely the sidekick. She can have all the screentime in the world if it means we get to see Apollo being a total bro or Blackquill being a superior weeb alongside her.

Imo the US naming scheme for the games paid off here. I think everyone was expecting to switch back to Phoenix for the latter half of case 5, so Apollo taking center stage for the entire case is quite the shock

"Psyche! Apollo is the main character, for real this time!" is definitely one of my favorite AA plot twists of all time.

Yeah, for real. I love this series. I'm glad folks here always talk it up so much because otherwise I wouldn't have snapped up the original Trilogy when it came out for 3DS. So glad I did! The games are an absolute joy. I've been trying to convince my husband to play them. He... kind of knows a lot of the plot twists because I talked to him about them as I was playing, but it's been long enough he's probably forgotten most of them. Plus he had no context. I just wonder what he'd make of them. We have very different tastes in games, most times.

I'd actually like to see a revisit of the civil trial idea (even though it doesn't make a LOT of sense given the Wright Anything Agency clearly specialises in criminal law and in murder in particular, it did make sense in that particular case given they're the only lawyers anyone knows and know each others' tactics) with some actual stakes to it, or at least both sides giving their all until the very end.
