it's very insane that syn sophia had refined the QOL controls of the style savvy series to a science, but decided to throw it all out the window for this game. this game is not style savvy, and if you expect style savvy you will be very disappointed. but even taking the game for what it is the characters and gameplay feel so vapid, and there's so many frustrating design choices that make no sense knowing who developed this one. they definitely needed another year on this one to make it feel less aimless
if i played this on the wii i think i would have broken my arm. good story, but strangely paced. zelda plays such an interesting role in this game, but they give her zero time and development to shine. i really enjoyed link's journey from being a lazy teenage boy to a determined hero, especially in the few moments they allow him to fail. unfortunately this journey is only in the first three dungeons of the game LOL

(aa2) it truly was "justice for all" phoenix wright.......
honestly this game is even better than i remember it being. the main three cases have such a strong emotional throughline that its hard to not care about them even at their most ridiculous moments. 2-2 and 2-3 do really well about giving a chance to humanize the guilty and bring attention to the wrongdoing they faced. and 2-4 is just really great ace attorney writing they've been trying to replicate since.

first time playing the male side of p3, i feel like it holds up decently well. some of his exclusive slinks are very barebones/suffer weird writing decisions and i hate the auto-romance feature but there were some standout ones (yuko and mamoru esp).
i really do think femc p3p really is the best version of p3 after this lol. but i had fun!!! and cried like a baby!!! i hold the themes of this game very close to my heart. this game really gets what persona is about
