The small improvements in gameplay mechanics like the psyche-locks and presenting profiles not being restricted to punctual situations are very appreciated. Justice for All actually makes a poor first impression, because the tutorial case is very bad, and while the third case is great, it's very flawed. However, the second and fourth cases are phenomenal and represent a much longer fraction of the game than the other two, which solidifies this game's position as one of my favorites of all time.
The fourth case is better than the fourth or fifth cases from the first game, which is kind of incredible. The game leading up to that point is a much more mixed bag, with some absolutely awful sections. It's a bit hard to rate a game with such higher highs and lower lows. Overall I think I'd give it the same score as the first game but that doesn't really give the full picture of how they compare to each other.
Going from first game to this game was a bit of a disappointment. Even from the first case I felt something was not right, every case feels seperate from each other and nothing connects to nothing, feels like bunch of filler dlc cases than a sequel with no focus or reason for it's existence, I struggled to continue multiple times, I even forced myself to continue with convincing myself it's gonna eventually be good and it didn't... until the grand and the best and the most awesome case in the entire goddamn franchise that is.
THE FINALE CASE
(and the sole reason I am not giving this game a 2/5)

Los casos no están al mismo nivel que el primero, la resolución de la mayoría es un poco floja y el único caso sobresaliente es el último, pero está lleno de deus ex y con un final pésimo. Irónicamente, el primero me tomo 4 años en terminarlo, este lo terminé en menos de 1 semana, lo que hace no haber pagado el internet y solo poder jugar videojuegos para pasar el rato (?
Aun así, es un juego disfrutable y no diría qué malo. Por cierto, Franziska besto wai- sería lo que diría, pero termina siendo repetitivo y cansado el chiste del látigo, así que ese puesto se lo lleva a mi andrógina favorita, Andrew.

Ace Attorney Justice For All is a game largely carried by its final case. The others, while good, with the exception for turnabout big top, don't particularly have that AA spark that almost all of the cases in the original had. With each case of the original, it felt as if the cases were written around each character in the main cast, as Edgeworth, Phoenix and Gumshoe all grow as actual people over the course of the game. In Justice For All, it rather feels like they’re filler cases, where nothing of any real importance is advanced with the exception of the new prosecutor. It even feels as if they’re constantly looking for excuses to shove Maya off to the side for the sake of Pearl being the focus helper of the game. And while I certainly like Pearl, I don’t want Maya to totally disappear because of her.
But, like I said, the final case more than makes up for what is a light and fun, but ultimately filler Ace Attorney
