Slight second game spoilers wasn't the budget for the second game relatively low compared to the first one? Which is why all the animated sequenced are in-engine rather than anime, and why so many characters and locations repeat

1-5: "This invention is not grounds for valid evidence." "Oh, but the jury summation didn't finish yet, and only their thoughts matter in the end." Holy poo poo, this is some AA prosecution level bullshit being pulled by the defense's side. Edit: lmfao at the ad hominem tantrum van Zieks threw immediately afterwards.

Endorph posted:I mean, you experienced it with the fan tl knowing a second game was coming. In Japan, there was basically no guarantee that there would be a sequel. One was not immediately announced or promised. The first game obviously plants sequel hooks, of course, but it also did not sell very well. Shu Takumi had to argue with Capcom a ton to get one greenlit. There was also a two year gap between the release of 1 and 2

Araxxor posted:1-5: "This invention is not grounds for valid evidence." 1-5: nah, Van Zieks doesn't really have a point. He's right, it's not decisive "this Eggbert guy absolutely was there" evidence like say a DNA test for all the reasons he expounds, but it absolutely is reasonable grounds to find this fellow and have him testify. Additionally the basic workings of the magical technicolour luminol could be tested in court in like 5 minutes, to show that yes it's magical luminol that can distinguish between people. Not that the jury isn't a gaggle of morons, mind you.

1-5 What I'm wondering is how did he manage to bleed all over the disk while wearing gloves? And if he ripped them, shouldn't anyone have mentioned that?

the way 2-5 highlights the (everpresent but more apparent here) found family aspects of the story really made me wonder about ryunosuke's japanese family. does he have alive parents? relatives?? do they care about him??? did anyone even notice he left japan for a study tour???? it is standard ace attorney practise not to talk about extraneous characters like family unless they're relevant, but it's really extra apparent in this case. i guess we could safely assume ryunosuke to be not in touch with his family due to whatever circumstances and living alone at the time of the first game's start and it's not that weird though

1-5: I sure do hope that I never have to actually do anything with this stereoscope photo thing, because the way Iris explained to do it is physically impossible for me, yay.  I say "hope" but they wouldn't have explained it in such detail if it wasn't gonna happen... Good thing Story Mode exists to skip past that stuff when it crops up, I guess.

Oh don't worry there's basically a different built in cheat they ported in for those segments and you can clearly tell they threw up their hands at porting the 3D segments to other systems.

I assume his family situation is the same as Nick's; they're alive and well and he just has no reason to ever bring them up. Maybe it's a Wright/Naruhodo thing, because they're just about the only main characters whose families never come up. Like, of all the other prosecutors, sidekicks and defense attorneys, the only one whose family we never hear from is Godot. If Ryunosuke had a troubled or tragic home life, it would probably have warranted some mention when he's hanging with Gina and Iris and they're bonding over their respective parent situations.

i mean, the clear difference there is that phoenix doesn't have 50 days of sea voyage between him and his (presumed) family, while ryunosuke does, so it seems rather like a much bigger deal

You don't know that! Maybe Nick's folks are also back in Japan and he can never afford a plane ticket. They could easily be a month's travel away.

phoenix being perpetually unable to afford a plane ticket is so perfectly consistent with the canon that i have to concede you might be right lol and yes i know he took a plane in AA6 but let's ignore that

End of 2-3: Well everything I predicted seems to have come true. The game is ramping up fast, I'm legit kind of wondering how they're going to fill out two more cases. Beginning of 2-4: Judge Jigoku in a business suit rather than that judge getup is looking spicy as heck.

Currently going through 2-5, and man is Jigoku just showing himself more and more to be an rear end in a top hat. It's just making it inevitably so much more satisfying for when Ryunosuke finally unveils all his bullshit here.

I would be fine with Athena and a soft continuity reset at the same time because Phoenix has had his time.

It's going to be called Trucy Wright Ace Magician and will deal with Athena's murky backstory and never mention Trucy and Apollo being siblings.

I'm honestly more excited for whatever project Shu Takumi is working on. I'm not sure what exactly it is, but after playing Great Ace Attorney it's pretty clear he and/or his team have a magic touch that I've felt the 3DS/Edgeworth games lacked. Plus AA7 will probably contain little to no Apollo, which is not a draw for me. E: I'm fine with retiring Nick or relegating him to the background, and if Takumi is actually involved with AA7 it will obviously be good. Like even Layton versus Phoenix Wright was extremely solid any time Phoenix/Maya were running the show. Zulily Zoetrope fucked around with this message at 22:00 on Aug 15, 2021 |

Yamazaki left Capcom about a year ago and Takumi is officially noted as Series Director in the GAAC announcement video, so it's very likely Takumi's brought the A team back on the main games.

That still doesn't explain (1-5) Borshevik, pointed out to not even be a citizen of England, ending up on the jury unless they needed him because he just so happened to have something kind of similar happen to him as what happened to Sholmes. Maybe that part specifically was just a joke but it kind of undermines the idea that the jury was intentionally selected

Maybe that part specifically was just a joke but it kind of undermines the idea that the jury was intentionally selected (1-5) He does almost immediately introduce himself as a firearms expert, which seems like a relevant skill to have when investigating a multiple shooting. More likely to come up than an obsessive understanding of stereographs, at least.

In 2-3 the trick was that inside a floating hydrogen filled balloon was a wax work dummy in a wooden cage which was then shot and the balloon exploded with no visible damage to cage or waxwork because of 'how the hydrogen was mixed'. Also at one point they thought it was a real person and no one even bothered to ask how they could breathe. Sometimes you just gotta not think about stuff too hard. Or at all.

He's just an unrelated Russian tourist with a war-torn past. He spends half the trial imploring you to not juge people by their appearance, a lesson that evidently completely flew over your head. smdh

This is all to say, we barely know anything about AA7. We don't know if Yamazaki might have been working on it before he left, if Takumi is on it, or even if it's just a new director under Takumi's supervision.
