ALMOST CHRISTMASMEANSIT ISN'T CHRISTMAS

AA7 when?
>>729218485Why would you want AA7? Modern Crapcom could never produce any AA worth a shit without Takumi and they won't let him back on the main series.
>>729218520I just want to see my wife again
>>729218329You mean Happy Holidays right?
>>729218329Merry Christmas Anon.Good on you following one of the objectively best vidya series ever.Never let the bitter fools here tell you otherwise.
>>72921832910 years ago on this day in history, Phoenix officially became an attorney.
Maya Fey in jail.
>>729218485only the original trilogy was any good
>>729218715This. I don't understand why you people keep hugging the decomposing corpse of this series
>>729218706pfft, she'll get away with it again, anyway.She always does.
Is the Layton crossover ever going to get a port or does Level-5 not want the free money?
>>729218715TGAA 1 and 2 were good teebeeh.An argument could be made for AAI1 even if I don't personally like it.The rest is bad, yeah.
Love my wife ThenaMerry Christmas to all and happy new year
Only a foolishly foolhardy fool would foolishly make the fool's fool of wishing Merry Christmas before it is actually Christmas.
>>729218329I'm turkish, I don't celebrate christmas!

>>729218329>OBJECTION>You mentioned in your testimony you were at home all night playing your PS5 >Well there's one small mistake then>PS5 has no games
>>729219386Too old.
Why is Almost Christmas memed so much? He was absolutely right.
>>729220608Where are her clothes???
All things considered, are DD and SOJ still worth playing if I know they suck and I have played all others AA games? They seem like a waste of time.Takumi not working on them is not an excuse because the two AAI are good.

>>729220768The hate for 5 and 6 is massively overblown. 5 is just "more wacky Ace Attorney adventures" with less of a focus on continuity or overarching plot. It was meant to be a soft reboot and does that just fine. It has its moments and one legit interesting twist.SOJ is legit good and top 3 Ace Attorney. Final case is epic and has all the turns and twists you could want. Apollo is an actual character now and the visuals are a lot nicer.Also you have to remember that the English localizer (Janet Tsu) has been the same across all the games, so the tone and dialogue is very consistent. There isn't this massive gulf in writing quality that folks would have you believe since it's all basically rewritten by the same person anyway.
>>729220958Oh and if any anons want to know, power ranking:>AAI2>AA3>AA6>TGAA (1 and 2, they function as a collective)>AA1>AA4>Layton>AA2 = AA5>AAI (it is so dull)
>>729220768DD and SOJ are still worth your time, and are the two entries I intend to return to at some point since they're the only ones I've not played twice.DD gets memed on because of the "Dark age of the law", and suffers from a lack of optional investigation points, you have to exhaustively examine every scene, with no optional stuff that exists for character interactions or insights.It's got its legit moments though, and the DLC case is one of the strongest in the series. SOJ is overall a far better game and ties a lot of things together nicely with the wider cast, but strangely the DLC case is one of the weaker ones.
>>729221169I'd probably put TGAA over AA6, and maybe not put AAI2 so highly, but this is an agreeable list.
>>729221182SOJ's DLC case is scuppered from the outset by centering on the hook of "oooh, could time travel be real?!"And just... no. No it isn't. We KNOW it isn't. The series has supernatural elements but nothing as batshit as that could exist in canon. So we are just being strung along waiting for the other shoe to drop.
>>729218680how did they make so many great female designs in just these two games? even this hag juror looks hot to me
How are AA locations filled with so much sovl?
>>729220327
>>729221801One of my fave things about Ace Attorney was how, as the games went on, Capcom USA's insistence that they're actually set in America became more and more ludicrous, and you can see them scrambling to cover their asses.>oh it's actually an immigrant village in the mountains that adheres to Japanese traditions
>>729222220Yeah, Japanifornia is part of the charm.
>>729222220>>729222478There was a pretty good article about that recently.https://www.timeextension.com/features/they-were-pretty-sure-it-was-not-going-to-do-well-how-phoenix-wright-ace-attorney-was-brought-to-the-westAlso a great article about how the composer, Masakazu Sugimori, nearly worked himself to death making the original Ace Attorney OST. It was his first role as a composer, and he had to learn how to make audio for the GBA hardware on the job.https://www.timeextension.com/features/i-was-really-close-to-dying-phoenix-wright-ace-attorneys-original-composer-on-the-hidden-struggles-behind-its-iconic-score
>>729223126It paid off, Pursuit is one of my favorite themes on the gba/DS.
>>729218485Phoenix x Maya marriage simulator game when?
>>729220327Gigabased

>>729224195it's the fate of long running franchise scared of ruining the status quo>tfw kindaichi waits until he's 40 to get his first and only child
>>729219119Garbage opinion. The best part of the Ace Attorney games was figuring out what happened as the case unfolded and then construing your narrative through finding contradiction and presenting evidence.TGAA is almost entirely fluff when it comes to the investigation because Sholmes just comes in at various times, crafts a story that is 90% accurate, and then all you get to do is find minor (or major) inconsistencies. It really isn't fun being the 2nd smartest guy in the room in a game where you should be the smartest. The trials are fucking abysmal. A juror system that seems interesting at first only to realize that it's completely rigged to give the illusion of suspense. The jurors have information pertitent to the case and often necessary to prove the defendant is not guilty. The game is a total slogfest and any semblance of accomplishment is whisked away by how much is out of your control.
>>729218329Merry pre-Christmas.
>>729218329merry christmas!
