There's something different about the music in the first game that the other two games in the trilogy failed to capture. It's like they use better instruments or have a better tempo than the music in the latter two games can't match.
The music didn't charm me the same way that the original game's did until Apollo Justice, which I think has the second-best soundtrack in the series.
>>333894421
The first cornered music is the best
That is literally it.
>>333894421
JFA just sounds straight out off compared to the other games. AAI comes the closest to capturing the feeling AA had, imo, but T&T generally had a good OST too.
You are right, I noticed that too.
I think it's actually one of the biggest issues with 2. Music plays a huge part in AA and 2's music is such a step down that I think it's a big reason why people think so badly of 2
>>333894421
Maya and Ema look like sisters
>>333895683
Best objection, logic and allegro cross-examination. There are better moderato cross-examination themes later on, but the differences in intensity between moderato and allegro in the first one is my favorite.
>>333895874
>I think it's a big reason why people think so badly of 2
I think the more prevalent factor is that it has two of the worst cases in the series. But yeah, combined with the music, it starts off very underwhelming coming straight from the first game.
>>333895743
it does have a different composer so that makes sense
it means it doesn't have a lot of good songs (though there are Great Revival and Investigation ~ Core - which becomes the de facto Matt Engarde theme - in there which are great, but that's kind of it)

>That moment when the original Pursuit theme kicks in in Trials and Tribulations
Simply glorious.
>>333895937
I was just saying the cornered music is the only thing that matters.
>>333896154
>implying objection doesn't matter
>>333896203
It doesn't.
The whole point of trials is just getting the sweet cornered music playing and going on a ride.
It always kind of annoyed me that T&T's Objection theme became Phoenix's theme, sort of, through AJ and DD. It should've been AA1's Objection, even if both are good.
>>333895907
They probably have same face.

AAI has a lot of piano in it. Sounds grand and fancy but doesn't have the same intensity about it as the original game's music.
Don't mind me, just posting the best song in entire series.

AAI1 had this weird combination of some pretty damn bad songs but also a bunch of really good ones

What are you on about? I dare you to post at least 3 bad songs from AAI1. Pretty much the entirety of soundtracks were ranging from decent to superb.
>>333897860
The investigation and cross-examination songs are bland as fuck
>>333896405
>It always kind of annoyed me that T&T's Objection theme became Phoenix's theme, sort of, through AJ and DD. It should've been AA1's Objection, even if both are good.
They remix Objection 2001 in UMvC3, PxZ2, and PLvsAA. It's his crossover theme apparently.
>>333898176
Yeah, because it's the more recognizable one, so that makes sense. It's weird that the main series didn't realize that.

and
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieDRiXwgri8&nohtml5
?
I'll give you that the first one does get bland after some time due to the slower tempo, but the investigation theme is dank as fuck, negro.
>>333898176
The English Court themes from PLvAA were damn good. Especially that Examination Allegro theme.
>>333898334
Well AA5's composer did the OST for AA3 as well. Maybe personal attachment or familiarity or something.
Also forgot to say Objection 2001 in PLvsAA is only in the first case, and they use that game's Objection (Objection 2012) for the rest.
I'm so glad RftA was stuck at the end of AA1 instead of 2 or 3
It's so good to have the franchise's best case with the franchise's best music
I disagree I think T&T's was pretty good. JFA's is iffy for the most part but it has my favorite credits theme in the series.
I do agree with AJ's having one of the best overall OSTs though.
Back the fuck up nigga, best OST coming throught.

>>333898491
The whole OST for that game is very good. Great music all around.
>>333898621
Yeah. Good example. The Pursuit theme is tight as well. Being the first AA game on the 3DS really did it wonders with the increased capabilities with the sound.

It was my favorite for a long time. A lot of people disagreed with me back in the day but I stuck to it.
>>333898376
All the variations of the cross-examination theme are pretty dull and you hear them A LOT
And that's not the investigation one I meant:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwD6O7kouw8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQPoqK3yjiU
both are repetitive as fuck very fast and you hear them throughout normal gameplay, which isn't the best
And then it has fucking amazing Pursuit, Court, and character themes, so it's kind of a mix. It's too bad some of the weaker themes show up so damn much
>>333898815
I appreciate on another level because I'm actually a major in criminal justice who plans to move onto the law field.
1-5 has a more thoughtful look at legal ethics than any other case in the series and it generally features the best courtroom dynamic between Wright and Edgeworth.
>>333899053
> it generally features the best courtroom dynamic between Wright and Edgeworth.
I'd argue that's 1-3
>>333899118
That was a good moment, but the whole case is filled with moments like that of them working together even outside of the courtroom
>>333899205
Yeah, I just think 1-3 is the best Wright/Edgeworth case if only because that's where Edgeworth has his complete change of heart.
Underrated case in general, but that part is fantastic
>>333899347
1-3 is where he starts to show it, but 1-5 gives you a villain that Wright and Edgeworth have to team up against to have a chance.
Best character theme ever
