I mean, it depends on how "major" they consider AA. It's definitely not one of their AAA series, so it could still be possible.

I like SOJ case 2 bad guy because he's a neat allusion to hobo phoenix. both of them got hosed over by the magicians and ended up recruiting a fan for their scheme. except Phoenix didn't murder Apollo.

I really liked Iris and think she was more than just someone he did during college, but I always felt that that case was less of a future setup and more of a resolution, allowing Nick to move on from the Dahlia incident.

Also, yeah Edgeworth and Nick are completely in a relationship in the 3ds games, come on.

Finally started SoJ having finished 1-5+dlc and I'm a little eeeehhhhhh about the Insight cross-examination. At least with the Mood Matrix you were given opportunity to fail a lot but given how loving complicated this is I'd rather they were a bit more forgiving.

Well I can't deny that 6-2 (pre-trial) made me actually angry at an antagonist for the first time since Dahlia

Holy Moly! DARKSEID IS!

TieTuesday just finished JFA tonight and will be starting T&T on Thursday. There were a few moments that despite having played that game more than a few times I still got tense or emotional about, especially in 2-4.

If you want to watch someone play through these games for the first time ever, unspoiled, I recommend checking out his VODs. He’s incredibly good at solving the cases and funny to boot.

Merilan

I feel like JFA's highs are higher than T&T's but its lows really drag it down. If you excised the circus case it'd easily be my favorite original trilogy game

Bloody Pom

I enjoyed T&T more than JFA but that's mostly because I enjoy the Fey clan stuff and 3-5 was an excellent payoff to what the previous games (and 3-1/3-4) had set in motion.

(gently caress Matt though)

SUPERMAN'S GAL PAL

Holy Moly! DARKSEID IS!

Spoilers for 2-4 regarding some telling character dialog: when Phoenix was speaking to Matt just before you break his Psyche-Locks, Matt flippantly mentions buying an expensive toothbrush made of ivory and elephant hair. TieTuesday’s chat immediately went from being cautiously suspicious to “guillotine this rich fuckboy.”

I wish we saw more of the Dark Age of the Law. It's a time when lawyer and prosecutors use dirty tricks, but you never really get to experience what that means apart from the fake evidence you get in 4-1.

That's because the writers didn't think about what it actually meant and/or weren't willing to shake up the storytelling formula to actually let you feel what it meant

I took it to mean an extension of what we saw in the first trilogy and the continuation of what we see in the series because a handful of honest, determined professionals aren’t going to stop systemic corruption over the course of a few high-profile trials.

I don't care about systemic corruption. I want my personal dramatic trials like 2-4 and 3-5.

Amppelix
Aug 6, 2010

I like character drama (obviously) but the stakes really don't need to be that high every time. I like the light-hearted trials that everyone else seems to dislike in the series the most. As light-hearted as murder trials can be, anyway.

I got a letter from the government the other day
opened it, read it

I finally dusted off the 3ds I bought for Megaman Legends 3 and marathoned 5, 6 and Layton. Thoughts:

5: Very good! Didn't expect to like the new protagonist but I really warmed up to her quickly.
6: There's a good game in here with interesting new ideas, too bad the new prosecutor ruins it.
Layton: far and above my favourite. I hope they do another one some day.

Switch to Athena and/or Apollo. Be done with Phoenix already, because he's basically done with character development.

I feel like Capcom took the wrong lesson from Apollo Justice and thought people were a bit cool on it because Phoenix wasn't the main character when really most people's problem with it was that Phoenix actually WAS the main character.

Merilan

It's definitely weird how rolled-back Phoenix is in 5 and 6 compared to his 4 incarnation. But 4 is definitely a bit of a book-end in many respects

Yeah, it's jarring how he immediately regresses back to being a cold-sweating, defeatist goofball the moment he becomes the titular protagonist again.

I know that there is no way the game is going in that direction but Zieks would be my favourite prosecutor of all time if each time he lost he just somehow managed to kill off his defendants. Like HOLLY HELL
