I had originally finished GAA1 in 2019 with the Scarlet Study translation and felt good enough about the game to give it a 4, but playing the sequel with those two years of distance made me reexamine the feelings on that game a little to bring the score down a peg. Mind you it's still a fresh feeling Ace Attorney title and (S)herlock is the most joyous interpretations of the eccentric detective, but with the overarching mystery and emotional payoff hinging this hard on the resolution in the second game, GAA1 just didn't leave an impact on its own. I put a great trust on GAA2 to pull it through though.
