The main issue with AAI is that some of the longer cases are kinda tedious and obtuse. Feel free to use a walkthrough.

It still has some nice moments. Gumshoe's first meeting with Edgeworth, the return of that horrifying police mascot...

Well there was that huge crime wave those years ago.

It could be worse, I hear some place in Asia they've outright gotten rid of all the defense attorneys.

That sounds awesome actually. Though I hear all their trials are ghost bullshit now.

IMO AAI2 *is* the best game in the series though. Which is not to say it's perfect, but none of the other games are. I mean what are the other candidates?

AA1? Many of the cases are too straightforward, and it pulls the thing of having Mia *just tell you the solution* too often.

AA2? Has only the one good case, even though it's a doozy.

AA3? I guess this really comes down to how much you like Dahlia and Godot. Me I found Godot's characterisation inconsistent and annoying, and Dahlia is just too one-note Evil.

AA6? This probably comes down to how much you like Apollo, and buy the idea of Sahdmadhi as an honorable opponent and not, well, a worse Franziska.

IMO, the basic problem of Edgeworth 1 is that it essentially lacks a narrative theme. The theme of Edgeworth 2 is basically about the relationship between parents and children and the need for justice in that. Edgeworth 1 is about... uh... smuggling is bad? I think AA games are at their best when the game has some kind of thematic cohesion to its stories.

Obviously Watson decided to change the names when it came to publication so that the stories aren't clearly about real people.

I thought Holmes was public domain now? There shouldn't be a need anymore for tacky legal dodges like "Sholmes".

The Holmes estate has gone after people for portraying Holmes having emotions, because Holmes having emotions is only a thing in the later books that are still under copyright
