I don't know who will direct mainline ace attorney next, but I pity that person. Solving this giant clusterfuck of an finale case ending while also need to continue 3 protagonist's stories sounds... Horrifying
I need to calm down while writing this review but... finale of this game is the only ace attorney case in the franchise that completely and utterly made me hate the franchise(it's worse than investigations1 finale for me). First half is garbage that is a "FORCED" conflict with Apollo that angered me to no end!
and second half is.... Let me ask you this: Did you thought space story wasn't grand for you? How about revolutionizing an entire country? Is it enough to be a grand story for you? What are they gonna do next I wonder? Maybe time travel or parallel universes? Why not? There is no limit anymore after all. Oh also Apollo take the short end of the stick again. No, don't worry, compared to dual destinies, this time he is the protagonist... but for a completely baffling reason, when you learn it if you say "oh cool" rather than "what the hell they they were thinking with changing his story again!???" Then unfortunately we are not on the same mindset. Look... I want to explain one thing: Like all of us I like that "leader" character as much as anyone. But like the 5th game, they throw him at the wayside so they can do a GOD-DAMNED big "goverment level" plot twists again... That just works to anger me! Oh also the whole "story" happens because Maya is coincidentally there to train and just called Phoenix for him to visit. That's the reason. Yep.
There is only one... only one case that is managed to make me happy and that is the second case. Because it's just a huge 4th game fanservice case that just shows what could have been. That's all.
Oh they also forgot the existence of Athena like how they did to Apollo previous time. Ironic really.
