Guess who's back?
At least looking at the background it seems Trucy is gonna be more relevant.
Actually it might be the opposite.
If that's a poster for one of her shows, it might be the excuse to make her barely appear in the game. Either that or a case where she's accused of murder.
I'm okay with that. I like her.
>>320715706
I hope it's the latter.
>Ace Attorney's Lightning
I hope there is more Psychology stuff with widget, this time with actual penalties to make it fun.
>>320715869
Trucy?
I just wanted Trucy to be Apollo's assistant again.
Why is that so hard? Why do we need Mary Sue Maya?
>>320715869
>Been in 2 games
>One of them as a main character, one as a minor side character
>>320715579
So the iOS versions of Ace Attorney are the definitive versions right?
>>320716036
Trucy is the worst assistent ever.
> Muh panties.
> Muh magic tricks
>>320716297
That's not how she was in the fourth game.
She was one of the two only actually competent assistants in the whole series.
The other one being Susato from DGS.
>>320715706
>Fighting to protect your daughteru
Please yes
That's great
But I fucking knew she would be in
DD is done with her story, so she won't be shoved in the plot as a focus but I honestly do want to play as her again though
Her personality is great but she needs improvement as a lawyer
Dat background looks dope
Let's hope we can examine outside the focused investigation scenes
I don't care what anyone else says. Athena is waifu-tier.
What does the text box say? Is it Athena talking?
>>320716519
The image came with an official twitter comment saying you could do just that.
>>320716527

>>320716673
Nice.
Dunno why they removed that in DD, what a retarded design choice that was.
>>320716480
But Phoenix is away, remember?
>Hey, wanna hit the gym after work? It sucks when you don't have a workout partner!
>>320717994
why is she such a mary sue
There should more cases than just homocide. Plenty of cases that Athena or Apollo can tackle.
>>320718216
FFFFFFFFFFFFFUCK you.
I think we should get a new trailer soon
>>320718368
Like bringing down the most corrupt Judge on earth?
>>320716979
Because DD was designed to appeal to new age casuals that would get lost if they could do that.
>>320718368
>homocide
i don't think we ever had that
>>320718434
I want this. Throughout Ace Attorney we have seen corrupt prosecutors, corrupt attorneys, corrupt cops and corrupt leaders, when will we get a corrupt judge?
>>320715706
>Either that or a case where she's accused of murder.
That would be fun and Athena defends her. I like it.
>>320718368
>homocide
Kewl, hate crime investigations.
>>320718434
>>320718527
A corrupt Judge would be too obvious. As soon as we saw the judge isn't the usual judge, you'll suspect him.
Then again, most cases you know the killer at the start anyway.
>That bland whore gets a second appearance
>I'll never see my own waifu again
>>320718527
>Accusing the presiding judge in a case of murder.
That would be amaaing
>>320718659
Except those rare times when it's not about just finding a killer.
>>320718659
They did it in T&T
Plus this different country is naturally going to have a different judge.
Wew lad. More yellow maya.
>>320715579
Ok according to Court Records the text on Trucy's poster says ''Gramarye''.
The fourth game ended with Trucy getting the rights to do Maginifi's tricks, is this what's happening here?
>>320715579
I want punished Athena.
Official art.
What does she need those fingerless gloves for anyway?
>>320715579
>Trucy relevant
Will we finally get a conclusion to the Lamiroir subplot?
>>320719181
It's for her courtroom magic powers anon koon.
>>320716064

>>320719181
You know, looking at her clothes they look unpractical as fuck.
How do they even work
>>320719181
If you want a straight answer, they let her interact with the holographic displays that Widget throws up.
back in my day we didn't have all of these fancy gimmicks
no, we had to rely on logic and reasoning alone without all this fancy technological stuff
>>320719958
Go away you don't exist outside of Japan
What are the chances of this game reaching the levels of PW:T&T or AAI2?
It being the end of another trilogy really raises my expectations.

They can explain how when the Raitou family moved to America they changed the family name to Wright to fit in more with the new country.
>>320720217
AA5 was alright on its own. AA6 should be amazing
>>320716064
iOS trilogy is awful, but DD is good
>>320715579
I knew she was going to be back, taking her out would mean A) To admit DD was a failure B) To ignore DD too much and C) To waste a mechanic they introduced in the previous game. It was retarded to think she wasn't going to be in this.
>>320716064
3DS trilogy is definitive. They fixed the bugs from the iOS games and cleaned up the portraits so they're not absolutely horrifying anymore.
I fucking hope they fix Perceiving. It was fucking trash and piss easy in DD.
Why would they put it on one forced Dialogue line and not in court? It fucking ruined it entirely.
>>320721015
It wasn't the game's central mechanic like it was in AA4. It seems like they wanted to basically get rid of it (probably due to fan criticism) but not write it out of Apollo's character.
I just hope it won't be another game with the main characters split across the cases. Just stick to one of them for fuck's sake.And let it be Apollo.
>>320721160
But it is, that's the premise of the game.
Two main characters (Phoenix and Apollo) each in two different locations (Kurain and Japanifornia).
It'll be interesting to see this dynamic.
>>320721238
oh boy.
What I can hope for at least is a magnificent last case with both Apollo and Phoenix working in two different places to work out the solution to the same exact -really big- case, each finding out different parts of the truth and having to work together to complete the puzzle
>>320721003
The animation is much worse than the DS versions, though. Phoenix patting the paper looks more like he's tapping it with a robot arm.
I wonder who the prosecutor in Apollo's cases is gonna be.
Either they bring back Klavier or Simon.
>>320721489
bring back Klavier but this time make it so that he has a different point of view than Apollo's. Like that we get an awesome character that an actually become a badass, terrifying prosecutor as well
>>320721585that actually becomes*
I feel like they are juggling way too much at once.
Bringing back Kurain without resolving Apollo's story means that Phoenix (and Maya) would end up overshadowing Apollo (and Athena) again. How is Athena's story going to be relevant in the grand scheme of things? Unlike Maya and Trucy, she is an actual main character. If they really threw her out, it'll be a waste.
It going to be hard to tie up all the character's plot points together like they did in the first trilogy. How are the Kurains going to tie with the Gramaryes and the Phantom? It will be anti-climatic if they aren't connected.
>>320722118
Yep, these are exactly my concerns.
I don't think the B-team can handle all of this in one single game.
>>320722118
Why does it have to revole around past things? Like why can't it be something like the Kurains angry at Phoenix for screwing their town fuck up Trucy and Apollo and Athena got to save them, where Apollo finds out they are related.
What I am trying to say is that they should MAKE story that has them all together rather then rely on past elements that all conveniently weave together
Also wasn't Athena's story finished entirely?
>>320722476
>Also wasn't Athena's story finished entirely?
Yeah, and apollo's for the most part. Having him meet his mother and find out about his sister isn't something we really need to see on-screen. It would be nice to have it acknowledged but dragging up baggage from AA4 isd a horrible idea and won't do anything to move a new game forward.
>>320721489
It can't be either of them, judging from this sillouette. Looks like a new character although with the way Apollo says it, it's like this person had appeared before.
Butterfly = Dahlia related?
>>320716384
>Trucy
>competent
HAHAHAHA
>>320722118
Phoenix BARELY has/had a story and he's the main guy. The games are about other people's stories and the protag solves these problems or whatever. Apollo's "story" barely even registers and Athena had her backstory and now it's her time to just focus on being a lawyer. Apollo could use a little more to him, but's it not super important. Characterization is what matters, not backstories.
And Apollo and Trucy don't need to know they are siblings. I don't see the damn point. Them meeting as strangers and quickly becoming just like siblings was the point in my eyes.
>>320722865
If it was Dahlia though how hysterical would it be to see her and Phoenix shipped instead of Maya. It would be like Melia all over again.
>>320722118
You assume they are going to expand Apollo's story. They won't. They won't expand Athena's story either. None of them it's going to be connected either. It's going to be a completely new story that MAYBE will be related to Maya.
>>320722865
There's no proof "that person" and the silhouette are even the same person.
I'd think the silhouette would be Phoenix's prosecutor, not Apollo's.
>tfw Athena is your AA waifu
Feels good man.
Where's Ema though?
>>320723306
She's the villain. Got butthurt about not achieving her dreams and killed someone on the forensics team who reported her sloppy detective work.
>>320723306
Ema is Penny Nichols tier at this point.
Maybe even Daisy tier.
>>320723420
>The prosecutor is her sister trying to prove it was someone else
This could work
Achtung
>>320723306
>yfw they introduce yet ANOTHER new detective for this game
>>320723306
I'm not quite at the 'no Skye, no buy' point, but it is goddamned important to me that she appear after getting shafted so hard in DD.
>>320722476
>>320722994
Because this game is an end of a trilogy. If the plot lines don't all cohesively come together, it will feel like just another AA installment (like AA2 and AA5) rather than a final game (like AA3).
Hell, being able to tie literally most of the AA plot lines together is what made AAI2 so good.
>>320724327
>Because this game is an end of a trilogy.
since when? It's just the 6th game.
>>320723620

>>320724327
Nothing from Apollo Justice was adressed in Dual Destinies. They just added more rushed backstory that didn't make any sense in the end or made any changes to Apollo's shitty character. The original trilogy at least had an overarching plot thread throughout.
Apollo Justice should likely be considered a spinoff, like the Investigations. This new game is really the second game in the second trilogy. I hope Apollo dies in this game.
>>320723694
Fake
>>320724435
>6th game
Exactly? 3rd game was the end of the 1st trilogy. The 6th game should be the end of the 2nd trilogy.
>>320725236
Why? That makes no sense.
>>320724975
>I hope Apollo dies in this game.
Fat chance of that. Remember that poll they did one week after AA5 hit Japan and Apollo was the most popular character while Athena didn't even chart? If either character is cannon fodder, it won't be him.
>>320724975
>AJ was ruined due to executive meddling
>DD had shitty writing due to the new team
I really wish this game is to able bring AA back to glory. These days, I'm looking more forward to Danganronpa than Ace Attorney.

>Maya comes back at the end of the trial to save Phoenix
will they fix Trucy model? her model in DD is fucking ugly.
>>320722904
>pretends to be hold hostage just to buy Apollo some time
How is that not being competent?
>>320726484
The whole fanbase wants crap like this and they're never going to get it. You guys are unendingly fixated on elements of the past games, and you want them to continue character arcs that haven't been worked on since games ago. They won't, the AA team is all about new characters and unique scenarios. If you felt something was unfinished and needs to be addressed from a past game, you're probably SOL because they'll ignore those bits and just introduce new stuff.
>>320726293
> I'm looking more forward to Danganronpa than Ace Attorney.
Now, now, now now, let's not say things like that.
why do the models in this new game look so weird in screenshots
they look like they are sprites

Well nice thing DGS is gonna experiment with this and have a huge overarching plot across multiple games.

>>320726293
DD's writing was great. It was just too easy. The "new team" was the same guy who wrote Investigations, Investigations 2, and Apollo Justice.
>>320727635
Takumi > Uchikoshi > Kodaka > Yamazaki
>>320730219
Apollo Justice was Takumi
>>320730459
It wasn't. Go watch the credits.
more trucy, nice!
So when is this game going to come out in the US? Any word?
Do you think they'll do any more DLC cases than 5? That wasn't a bad concept, I honestly liked it.
>>320730973
Likely digital-only 3 to 4 months following the Japan release.
>Do you think they'll do any more DLC
This is Capcom.
>>320716064

>>320732576
Investigations 1 is clearly the weakest game in the series. The cases range from boring as shit to alright. No stand out cases.
If they bring back Athena, they better show her feet this time.
>>320719181
Play 5 and find out
>>320728779
to be fair about half the cast of Ace Attorney passed the bar about 6 years earlier than is possible.
at least they didn't say she had a legal degree at age fucking 13 like Franziska
>>320732872
You won't see anything below the waist.

>>320732831

anyone have the creepier version of this gif?
I really hope Apollo smashes pick related
>>320733252
The Ambassodor shit lasted waaaaaaaaaaaaay to long. It wasn't even a great reveal either.
Some literally who was the villain all along! What a shocker.
>>320733435
They never do any romance stuff in Ace Attorney. Why would they start now?
>>320728779
>>320718216
Being unable to do or achieve anything by herself is the opposite of a mary sue
>>320733435
>ships her best friend with Apollo in-game
>fans ship her with Apollo instead
I'll never understand this fanbase
>>320718527
already happened
>>320716673
Nice
Games already better than DD
>>320734459
that best friend is a literally who? It will never appear again and it's a shit ship anyways.
I wonder what's the context
Usually it's Case 3's that tackle events, like what I'm assuming is, a murder in Trucy's magic show
Whereas Case 2's are usually local murders
>>320734459
Because Apollo himself is playing the Unaware game
He doesn't care, he was too busy crying about his boyfriend
>>320715579
Are we gonna get more information, possibly about the new prosecutor?
They're really keeping the info close to their chest this time, we hardly know about anyone beyond some of the main cast. Not even witnesses or whatever.
>>320738621
Prosecutor is never revealed until the game is close to release
It's the only thing I care about by this point aside from who's gonna be the detective.
So we are not getting the feudal chink game, but we will instead wait for 6?
>>320738889
Well we're most likely gonna have 2 detectives this time around. I'm hoping for Ema on Apollo's side and Gumshoe on Phoenix's side, though I doubt that'll happen
