I've rewatched this game like 8 times now and it genuinely gets worse every time I do (I gave it a 9/10 at launch). Genuinely one of the worst sequels ever.
I've rewatched this game like 16 times at this point and it never gets old. Genuinely peak fiction.
This was the final AA game I needed to play since it didn't get officially localized until 2021 and before that I always heard from people who watched it subbed that it was possibly the best game in the series. I heard constant praise for this game and I expected another AAI2. When I played it, it certainly was... good. Nothing mindblowing. Somehow the one filler case ended up being my favorite, genuinely great cae and a great use of the location and time period. 1 and 3 are pretty good too, and then when I saw how the last case was formatted I knew this would not be matching AAI2. At the end, this game was pretty good. 2nd or 3rd favorite AA game with T&T.
As a whole, TGAAC is like a 9/10, better than the sum of its parts.

This game nails the vibe but besides Case 3 has some fairly underwhelming cases. Works much better if you think of it as the first 5 cases of a 10 case game with GAA2, because that's pretty much what it is.
Guarantee any AA fans who complain about this game's story have never played a Layton game in their life LMAO
Underrated AF. A marked improvement from AA5, having 4 really solid cases. The final case kind of sucks ass unfortunately. The DLC case is...fine.
Hot off the heels of the best Ace Attorney game they proceeded to make the worst one. The final case is pretty alright (but still somewhat flawed) but everything else is either a snoozefest or kinda bad. Hard carried by Blackwell who is easily one of the best prosecutors in the series.
BY FAR the best AA game. It's absolutely insane going from AAI1 to this. Some of the best new characters, returning characters, and cases this series has to offer. The only game in the series where I can confidently say every case is fantastic.
Investigations' gameplay is actually more fun than mainline AA but this game doesn't really do it justice because every case in this game is painfully average. It's enjoyable seeing returning characters in this fashion but other than that there really isn't much interesting going on in this game.
A really good first and last case carry this game, because the middle two are really, really boring.
Yeah it's pretty good. 4 really solid cases and 1 kinda iffy one is pretty good for this series. 3-5 is really good but it's definitely a bit overrated too imo.
JfA has 1 good case, 1 mid case, and 2 outright bad cases. The only thing keeping it from being the worst in the series is the fact that the 1 good case is straight up one of the best in the series.
Ace Attorney 1 is really good for it's time but also after playing the rest of the series is kind of tame by comparison. 1-4 and 1-5 are still great though.

Xenoblade 3 is really, really, really good for the majority of its runtime and feels like the culmination of everything Monolith learned from their previous games and has possibly one of the single best sequences in the entire series in CH5/6 and has so many loveable and memorable characters and then falls off in like the last chapter hard. It's not like it's terrible or anything but man I really hope for the sake of the story that the DLC is an epilogue (and is also good). Still a fantastic game overall.
