2-3 has one of the best dialogue options in the series at least. "I'm not even sure if this day hasn't been some kind of Kafkaesque dream."

There wasn't a game in the the series where I can say that it was strictly about Phoenix until AA4. AA1 was ultimately about Edgeworth, AA2 is about Maya, and AA3 is about Mia.

AAI isn't like completely not worth playing but it's definitely on the low end of the series. How they went from that immediately to AAI2 I have no idea.

Lechtansi posted:Oh, we can't figure out how to keep Pearl from channeling Dahlia so lets concoct this crazy plan and kill Mayas mom while we are at it. Like, nobody just said "Hey Pearl, lets go check on Maya real quick to make sure shes OK then go read stories with Elise. Boom, entire plot foiled. Godot wanted to be the Big Manly Hero and so created this convoluted plan to allow himself to save the day to deal with his crippling guilt and self loathing.

It is funny how Edgeworth plays Unofficial Defense Attorney in a large chunk of his AAI cases just because he has to fight that trend.

If Case 2 didn't win you over then yeah you're probably not going to like it.

Pablo Nergigante posted:I’m almost done with Apollo Justice, should I move right on to Dual Destinies or do AAI 1/2 in between? Also I know there are DLC cases for DD/SOJ, do they fit into the overall plot or are they more standalone? The DLC cases are standalone.

Zerilan posted:Most of the 3rd game felt like it was more about Mia than PW even. I mean Phoenix didn't get a game about him until Apollo Justice. The first game is about Edgeworth, the second is about Maya and the third is about Mia.

Personally I think PL vs AA is worth playing for the 95% of the game that's fantastic before the poor 5% at the end.

Everybody treating Phoenix like some idiot is explained by the system treating defense attorneys like trash. If he was smart he'd be a prosecutor see.

Yeah I feel that the writers do a good job of making each character you play as feel unique even though the gameplay doesn't really change.

Regy Rusty posted:Being a video game means you just have to accept some amount of contrivance or inconsistency. Take Edgeworth, who in the AAI games demonstrates the same kind of tenacity Phoenix does and refuses to give up until he's found the full truth before it even gets to court. But then we've later seen him prosecute two cases where he didn't do this and it's up to Phoenix to find his mistakes. . This is actually easily explained by the cases in AAI being ones he investigated personally while the ones you go against him in the games are ones which he was assigned after others did.

SI-7 is the case where Gregory Edgeworth managed to prove that Von Karma had forged evidence and get the one mark on his Perfect Record. This case wasn't given any details until AAI2.

Amppelix posted:sure, but i do not like how the story wants me to feel bad for the guy who tells franziska to stay in the kitchen I mean that negative character trait is also part of why he ended up having a tragic fall in the first place. His sexism is directly tied to his motive in wanting to be the big manly man who saves the day and thus helps cause Misty Fey's death.

Raxivace posted:I thought Holmes was public domain now? There shouldn't be a need anymore for tacky legal dodges like "Sholmes". There are still some Holmes stories that are under copyright. The Doyle estate is very picky and will find any excuse to try and sue over them. Notbaly they argue that if you're not writing Holmes as a dick than they have the copyright lol.
