for the collection itself, its satisfactory. the costumes being GAA2 exclusive was dumb, albeit understandable because they were technically in that game only originally. i think being locked at 30fps as well as having inherent resolution issues was lame, though mods can easily fix that (apparently there was audio issues too but i dont care about FLACs or whatever)
GAA1: i think that its one of the best ace attorney games straight up, herlock is one
of the best characters, and i think a lot of the others were super neat too. I think case 1 being one of the hardest and probably longest case 1s was fun, and this was a good one to boot. case 2 being entirely investigation shocked me, but i think it was overall for the best. case 3 was interesting because youre so obviously defending the guilty party. case 4 was a decent case, though, i wouldnt call it something special. case 5 was really easy, but it was also an amazing case and an easy favorite.
GAA2: i think that this one relied on 1 a little bit too much. i think case 1 was a mixed bag, it was way too easy, but it just dragged on and on, i figured everything out as soon as male aya was introduced, and had already figured out the how and why before that anyways. case 2 was another soseki case, and i dont particularly mind him, but i dont think that 1-4 was one of too much note to ride the coattails of, although, i did enjoy 2-2 more than 1-4. case 3 was really neat, but harebrayne's side of the story was definitely not the interesting part. cases 4 and 5 being different was a cop out just so there would be 5 cases, and honestly i would have preferred there just be 4 cases in the game. i think that herlock having created holograms and robot walkie talkies was also going too far.
