the game is fine. edgeworth is my heart and soul. i loved the interactions between him and franziska in turnabout reminiscence.
Singlehandedly the worst set of writing I've read so far this year.
I couldn't get past the first two cases, the writing was so utterly awful and the case logic and characters so hamstrung boring, with it wasting your time more than any other VN I can think of at the current moment. Not to mention the self fellating it does every hour for either fanservice or weak attempts at characterization.
Put it in the fucking bin and read the summary if you want to play AAI2.

This game, especially the early cases, is HORNY for returning characters and motifs and it puts a stale edge on what would be a really nice variation of normal Ace Attorney gameplay
Miles you fucked it up noooo (the game's okay)
edgeworth is not very good as a main character
the game is only ok but i'm genuinely boggled how i never realized edgeworth is the Gayest Man Alive when i was younger
this game in the aa series was also okay, but it introduced kay and lang so i guess I like it. i still don't know how i feel about it rest of it but the 5th case can go fuck itself!
Kinda drags on too much, I'm only playing this for my boy miles, and also because they say the sequel is amazing, let's hope so
This is a very good game. However, it faces a huge roadblock in having two not so great cases. And the final case being such a chore to get through. However, if you are a huge fan of Columbo and Ace Attorney than this will be a treat for you. Miles also carries the plot so hard, we need to give him more credit
quelle immonde merde
easily the worst game in the series. its story is silly, even for a PW game where you assume it will be silly. the villains are painfully generic and often times cases pad out their run time with filler that just heightens how boring catching the culprit is. Shame we didn't get Investigations 2 over here, apparently that one is really good.
Masterpiece
the court room is missed
I mean it's a cool little spin-off game. HATED the last case, it just dragged on and on I wanted it to end.
Another great Ace Attorney game, with great cases, music, characters, etc. While I did enjoy most of the cases, some of them seemed to unnecessarily drag on longer than they really needed to (the last one especially). It's also not as good as Investigations 2, but that's just because Investigations 2 is really that good. My review to Investigations 2: https://www.backloggd.com/u/MrSolo/review/89785/
In this game, the action takes place outside the courtroom. Gameplay is still very similar, but you can move around freely this time and there's a new "logic" system which is a welcome addition. The story is good, and the first few cases build up and connect to the last one nicely. Definitely worth playing after the Phoenix Wright trilogy.
An interesting experiment that has bright spots and good ideas, but is utterly mauled by pacing issues.
I've been needlessly mean to AAI in the past, but the fact remains that much of the game feels like a slog in ways that nothing else in the franchise does. Almost all of these games are made or broken by their final cases, and never would I have expected how desperate I was for AAI's finale to end. It just keeps going, trying harder and harder to lose my interest, something which I don't think it ever had in the first place.
There are two cases in AAI that I would call "good" and neither of them are powerful enough to carry the rest.
Thank god it's all worth it for AAI2.

I asked my girlfriend if she'd play an Ace Attorney game other than Investigations and she said "why would I want to play an idiot like Phoenix?"
This game is fine, but that uplifts it to art.

Screw you treeman
not the best ace attorney game but I have a soft spot for a lot of it
it's too slow-paced and with the exception of case 4, it never has the same sense of emotional investment that makes OG Ace Attorney so good
Ace Attorney já é uma franquia absurdamente maravilhosa desde suas primeiras edições.
Neste primeiro spin-off assumimos o brilhante e carismático promotor Miles Edgeworth em sua aventura solo. Temos aqui mecânicas novas como o sistema de lógica e gameplay com câmera em 3ª pessoa, muito similar aos adventures point'n'click ocidentais.
A trama não é sensacional como os outros jogos, mas o sistema de lógica funciona bem para ligar fatos e eventos. É uma mecânica que ao invés de trabalhar com combinação de itens e utilização dos mesmos com o cenário prioriza a coleta de pistas e a interação das mesmas dentro da cabeça do personagem, fazendo ligações e deduzindo soluções para as questões encontradas.

this game sucks
you gotta eat your veggies first
Surprisingly bland with only case 4 and the first half of case 5 being the standout... Genuinely surprised to see the sequel be held in such high regard.
What a drag this was.
A very shallow attempt to breathe fresh air into the series that comes off as gimmicky more than compelling. All its new additions and changes in perspective are merely window-dressing to the fact that its copying all the tropes and cliches of previous games without adding any compelling mystery or characters to make it interesting.
it was an alright time! it wasn't as memorable as the main games or dai gyakuten saiban but i found enough enjoyment out of it. haven't played the second game though i would love to at some point as i see people raving about the characters.
Pretty neat spinoff to the Ace Attorney series. It leans more on the side of point and click adventure game compared to the main games which are more VN-like. The cases are ok, the last one goes on for a little too long but it was still a cool mystery. I actually kind of like how every case follows a central narrative, instead of the somewhat disconnected court cases of the main series. Though I don't think either style is any better or worse, it's just cool to see something a little different. Not much to say about this game other than Shi-Long Lang is a CHAD.
This game went from fun to ok to absolutely horrible over the course of each case. Every character including Edgeworth act like idiots and it feels like a chore to playthrough.
