the real answer is that apollo justice just had kinda crappy writing

unlike AAI2, which is good. i was playing case 3 on christmas eve yesterday, which felt right

You are correct on both points.

Okay maybe not in a vacuum. But case 3 always sucks and the final case is usually one of the best in the game so AJ's last case is way more disappointing.

The two days of trials are so disconnected that it's like playing a completely different case and on the final day of court the player only needs to do two things to win. It is the most anti-climactic case in the series from a gameplay perspective.

Anti-climatic from a plot standpoint, too. The big culprit of the final case is the same guy we showed was guilty of the murder in the first case? That could be neat in a roundabout way...if it weren't for the fact that in the PW world, a murder conviction is a guaranteed death sentence. So all we did was would Glavin's pride a little more than we already had.

I don't understand why the internet is so in love with the AA April Fools joke. Like, it was a cute little non-malicious joke about the new game coming out, but people are acting like making the characters dogpeople is somehow this amazing idea.

Probably the shot of young Athena covered in blood, plus her being accused of killing her mother as a child.

Also the implication that said murder occurred by her mother being ripped apart by the robot arms or whatever.

Can someone explain the love for AA5's DLC case to me? It was good, but I don't see what makes people call it the best case in the game or even the series.

You defend an orca.

Sasha Buckler is fun in that wacky AA character way.

One of the characters is an older Spike Spiegel.

The resolution was nice.

This is correct. It wasn't the best AA game but it was a far cry better than AJ and I quite liked it.


I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. Capcom executives really meddled in Takumi's original idea for AJ and forced him Kojima style to add Phoenix to a plot without him when T&T was supposed to wrap up a quality trilogy. Then the crossover went through a million revisions until we got a great game with a craptastic ending. I'd rather judge him on The Great Ace Attorney except, you know, it's not slated for Western release. :(

I'm just going to judge him on Ghost Trick, so yeah.

Surely they'd just need to give every conversation its own flag, rather than each text box? After all, it's not like you can get out of a conversation if you choose to talk to someone in the game - you just have to wait for it to end. All the game would have to know is if you've chosen that particular dialogue option before, or examined that object, or presented that evidence, etc., to know if you could skip the dialogue there or not.

I can't remember for sure, but it's not unheard of for the series to have a conversation that starts the same but branches between a dead end and actual progress based on you doing the proper thing at a different statement.

I liked the idea that even though you got Kristoph in 4-1, you still had to untangle the web he'd left behind, especially since he was still riding high on having ruined Zak, Nick, and the Mishams. But like a lot of things, it was undercut by Apollo having no real stake in the case despite the fact that he really should've, being Kristoph's pupil. It's bizarre that DD did more with that than AJ without even mentioning the guy by name.

Considering that Kristoph was a master defense attorney who was willing to cheat and fabricate evidence, AA4 should have had him defending himself in his own trial for what you get him charged with after 4-1 and getting acquitted through his bullshit so that 4-5 actually has more of an impact instead of just breaking his pride.

I'd love it if Spark Brushel, now a freelance web columnist for Buzzbait, came back as a witness for at least one case.
