Is the Ace Attorney franchise worth playing?
>>
>>342894278

yes, play them in order

dont listen to faggots who tell you to skip apollo justice
>>
>>342894443
I started the first one, am on the second case and it's kind meh so far, do the games get better?
>>
>>342894659
First one gets better after the second case.
>>
>>342894659
What exactly don't you like about it?

The second case isn't really remarkable in contrast to some of the other cases, but I thought it was enjoyable enough with the characters and tone. I suppose if you aren't really warming up to it now, you probably shouldn't stick with it.

>>342894278
No, Fuck off
>>
>>342895338
I just find it a bit too easy and straightforward, especially compared to the dangangronpa cases
>>
The franchise? Eh.

The original trilogy? Yes.
>>
>>342895619
The game gets plenty challenging later, especially by the time you get to the final case. The second case basically serves as an extended tutorial.
>>
>>342894278
not even a game
>>
>>342895792
okay I will keep playing
>>
>>342895619

The first case is babby mode, fourth case is better than danganronpa 2-5
>>
>>342894659
Get the fuck out of here before you find out that it was von karma

>>342894278
Only the first three is good.

Apollo Justice and GK2 are god-tier though
>>
>>342896000

GK2 is the best game of the entire series. Apollo Justice is dogshit that nearly killed the franchise.

Why? Because it decided to take a new direction with the series as opposed to rehashing the same characters and formula for the next 10 years?

I'll admit that the whole Jurist system didn't really give way to an easy rehash, but that should have been an opportunity to steer the franchise in a different direction rather than just tossing it in the trash.

The cases weren't nearly as bad as people make them out to be, either. Turnabout Serenade garners far too much irrational hatred, I feel, and while Succession felt a bit rushed, it still had its moments.

You're right, I love this song

in fact, let's play it again

while we're listening to it, should we think about the fact that they establish there's no possible way that a small kid could shoot a .45 and then proceed as if he's the prime suspect anyways?

...

lets play the song again

This is the water temple /"le annoying navi xD" of the AA franchise.

Totally overblown.
>>
>>342897429
Fuck off Americlap, only trigger happy autists would understand that kind of physics because you're all obsessed with guns.

The game is primarily Japanese, they don't know or care about gun physics. Neither do I.
>>
Sure, go for it. Some low points in the series but the overall package is worth it.
>>
>>342897429
nice meme-ing, bro, you certainly showed me

>while we're listening to it, should we think about the fact that they establish there's no possible way that a small kid could shoot a .45 and then proceed as if he's the prime suspect anyways?

That's because he IS the prime suspect. At the time, the police knew of nobody else who could have possibly committed the crime, and Machi had an obvious means of doing it. Just because it's ludicrous doesn't make it impossible.

Is the anime better? I stopped at the Steel Samurai case. How did it handle the fourth case?
>>
>>342897914

dude, the game itself says the revolver is too big for anyone but an adult to fire it without dislocating their shoulder

>>342898098

its still dumb as fuck. machi can't shoot without dislocating his arm and can't drag an adult body up the stairs. its not ludicrous, its straight up impossible.
>>
>>342898560
Just because it's a powerful gun doesn't mean that it'll instantly tear off your arm when you fire it. Plus, again, Machi was the only person believed to lack an alibi AND was the only one believed to be able to leave the crime scene without being caught.

Yes, the body transportation was dumb, but it doesn't deter from the case.

Kay was the only assistant to have actually gotten on my nerves, and that's an accomplishment considering this series' track record

>>
>>342899005
>but it doesn't deter from the case.

yes, it does. In a series where tiny contradictions like adrian's height comparing to the nickel samurai's costume is pointed out, its ludicrous everyone ignores that machi can't possibly transport the body.
>>
>>342899413
Not even Trucy makes a magic reference in every single dialogue box.
>>
>>342899590
The body transportation doesn't automatically exempt Machi from committing the murder. Even it was proved that somebody else had carried the body, Machi was still the only person believed to have been able to do it, the corpse movement was just icing on the cake.
>>
>>342899579
I really don't get the AJ hate.
Just started playing through the series and am halfway through AJ now.
4-1 was good and 4-2 was really nice and amusing as well.
So far it's certainly better than JFA and the pacing is much better than the slog the other 2 can be.

I miss some features like magatama and showing profiles but overall it's a nice breath of fresh air with a brand new cast that isn't retreading the same damn drama the first 3 cases can't get over.

It's all downhill from there anon. I'd literally play 2-3 five times before having to play AJ all the way through once.
>>
>>342900097

the best parts are over.
>>
>>342900097
Some people really get their panties in a bunch over the last few cases. Some people like it, some people loathe it. It's a pretty alienating game.
