大逆転裁判 ‐成歩堂龍ノ介の冒険‐

the real issue with case 4 is I had to sit there watching that lady pour tea on that older dude like 12 times in a row, just to then go back to the defendant and watch him do some weird-ass Four-Word Fabulous Fountain Freak gimmick like twenty times in a row. it's like every character in this universe has to be as over the top as mike meekins, like guys please just stop.

Why is every case 5 so damn good?

Crashed so much on PC, sometimes I would get a good hour of playtime before a crash, sometimes it would crash every 10 minutes.

Didn't really understand the appeal. 5/10. probably 6/10 if not for the crashing. I'll rate the collection when I'm done with part 2. Hopefully, it's better.

it's interesting in concept and the second part was great but with this i was just really bored. still good though

i always thought my issues with this game and its sequel (among other things) was its pace, but playing aai1, which is decidedly a mid ace attorney game, is making me realize it might be more of a character one.

like in aai1, every primary character is fun to me, including returning (edgeworth, gumshoe, surprisingly franziska) and new (kay, shi-long, shih-na). many of the non-major characters act more as annoying roadblocks, but that's the ace attorney way. so even though it's slow, i'm still enjoying the dialogue between the primaries.

in this game the whole main cast leaves me cold. ryuunosuke and susato are unfortunately dull, sholmes just annoys me, iris fails to endear me, and barok just isn't that interesting. gina is like the one stand-out as someone who is both funny and well-rounded and she's debatably not even a main character. i often found myself wishing more that a random witness would be fun to talk to (for instance, the couple in case 1-4 for me) since the main cast wasn't doing it for me.

like comparing the two, the gaa series is undeniably better put-together, but the story being comprised of characters i just can't vibe with makes the slow pace feel glacial.

So, shitting on all characters while liking Gina? Seriously?

Curious what fans would recommend — after finishing the original trilogy, would diving right into these great ace attorney games be worth it, or would you recommend sticking with 4/5/6? It seems like both subsets of games have mixed reception in the fanbase

first four parts of this game were exceptional but the last case is boring as all hell admittedly
