Yeah, it's important to note that everytime someone says America or Burgers its a very transparent paste over by localizers, and it only holds up to scrutiny in this game. The story is very much set in Japan.

GilliamYaeger posted:Yeah the game's designed for you to press all the statements one by one before going ahead to present evidence. Eh, the story flows a lot smoother when you don't. It kind of let's you decide if you want a tighter drama where Phoenix feels a little more competent, or if you don't mind breaking the flow to watch Phoenix talk to the judge about Ms Cinder Block.

Nidoking posted:That, and the pacing is going to be pretty sad for you if you stop to do polls for every testimony. Audience speculation about where the contradictions are can be fun, but stopping at every choice to take votes is going to establish a slower pace than you might be comfortable with. Yeah, later games get pretty chonky with dialogue in between player actions, but in these shorter earlier ones it's short enough that stopping for a vote every time would kill the pacing.

the update posted:It's hard to see but Larry's left arm is swinging back and forth in this sprite and appears to be missing a hand. What the hell? Actually, let me go into my second file with the transparency maxed out and snap it: Since Larry is, well Larry, his coat doesnt fit him and has sleeves that are way too long. That bend right at the end is his hand inside the sleeve.

Blaziken386 posted:Jailer's Elegy is such a good song Nah, it makes sense for the defense as well. For a good chunk of the planet, having to look at the all the evidence including photos of your murdered boss (that just very professionally asked you out for drinks) would provoke an emotional reaction that could compromise your decision making skills and prevent you from mounting the best defense possible. Especially if the defendant is said close relations sister and a memory trigger for the deceased.

Please. Like a real life lawyer would accidentally send a cell phone full of incriminating evidence to the other side and then sit there silently letting their client commit perjury repeatedly knowing full well the other side had hard evidence against their lies?

I mean, it's also a game where the op is very openly saving and reading to try other joke options. It's not like going "well it finally won, here you go" actually hurts them.

I will help with another post with some advice on that. It's not something easily done in an lp, but the games own advice from case 1 is always helpful.  Unfortunately here, you'll have to skim for the update they got logged/updated instead of just whacking tab

whitehelm posted:All the images showing the woods show waist-high hedges/bushes everywhere. Maybe Cody is small enough to climb through or over, but I'm assuming it wouldn't be possible for an adult to do it without noticeable damage to the foliage. It would be nice if that was actually mentioned in the game though. My understanding of the events is 1) Cody enters through the drain pipe in the employee area 2) Cody passes through the gate and gets photographed 3) Cody ditches into the woods to avoid the old hag (she's coming back to her post from the run through maybe? She could also be putsuing from behind if she was at her post and saw the photo get snapped) 4) Cody wanders around lost until he stumbles upon the steel samurai "battle"

I've always found it weird the album doesn't work for the first prompt: it and the camera both follow the logic of "he was trying to take a picture for the album." It's weird that they split the two pieces of evidence up for a single conclusion. And yeah, the way they quietly build up your assumption on who the killer is all case only to then yank the rug out here is pretty great.

argosaxelcaos posted:Incredible twists! Challenged assumptions! Bits of dialogue that are incredibly important in hindsight! I mean, the big twist was also delivered with a brain dead player choice. The issue here is that the crime scene being different than assumed should also be a big dramatic reveal, but it comes so close behind hammer was the samurai that you get completely underwhelmed by it and get left with an insulting easy input.

argosaxelcaos posted:It's true that in any real court, this would be your win and that's that, it's not your job to Perry Mason your way into finding the culprit. But in a game it's pretty unsatisfying! I remember in KOTOR 2 you have to investigate a case to prove an ally innocent and it ends just like that. Your dude is innocent. Fin. You never learn who did it and it's kind of a letdown, so I'm okay with the game doing this for the sake of drama That's actually a fun one, because you can dig deeper and find out he did it. It creates a moral quandary between what is right in the immediate moment versus possibly sabotaging the war effort. E: you are absolutely right :

This scene is just so great when you're playing because having the writers jerk you around with the music the whole time just makes the gag land so much harder than the music links. I love how there is a clearly canonical line there that has Edgeworth and Phoenix mirror each other. It's kind of a shame you can miss that.

AncientSpark posted:Also doesn't help they did not come up with the idea of making this a trilogy until after the first game was developed, so the first game is designed to be a very tight storyline. It's also just a fairly short game. We're a little over 2/3 through the original game. To put things in context, the bonus case they added in the DS re-release is roughly the length of the entire original game. It's probably why the first one is my favorite, I appreciate brevity in a story, even if it creates a few cracks in this one.

serefin99 posted:It is on the Phoenix Wright 1 cartridge. You can argue its place in the continuity all you want, but if someone is actually playing the games, they will see it in Phoenix Wright 1. It's from Phoenix Wright 1. It's on the Phoenix Wright trilogy ds remake card and all subsequent releases. It is, in fact, not on the Phoenix Wright 1 cart. They did put it in the Phoenix Wright 1 section of the collection though.

apostateCourier posted:It is on the Phoenix Wright 1 DS cart, I don't have anything beyond the first one. Nah, it's on the Phoenix Wright trilogy ds card. Phoenix Wright 1 was a gba game that didn't leave Japan. Rise from ashes was made as a bonus for the collection which is noticeable in that it has a bunch of ds features that get brought into play for it and it alone in the original trilogy. Well that, and it's relatively disconnected from the original trilogy and serves more as a prequel for the ds game than a part of the trio. That's the whole reason people are able to argue for and against it going where Capcom put it.
