Oh my god this is so peak. Storytelling, art style, music are all so so soo good! It took me a little bit to adjust to the combat part of the game, but when I came to it, it was so satisfying obliterating hordes of enemies. Definitely ranks highly as a game for me.
My biggest disappointment of 2024. I was only looking for a good story and a modern jrpg. This game failed me in both regards.
I get that they tried to appeal to the older audience but this isn't 1991, there's no need for having to walk around town for 10 minutes to get to a save point. Random battles are also completely dated if done like this. Doing puzzles is a complete nightmare because you're constantly getting battles pop left right and center plus finishing those battles takes forever even on auto.
Menus are slow, combat is terrible (also slow and with no option to speed up), magic is complete garbage...
The story is just... There for the sake of being there? It takes FOREVER to start and even when it does the game refuses to make any character interaction interesting from the getgo. Nowa spends 5 minutes with this guy and suddenly they are besto friendo's!
As I said HUGE disappointment. I hope the sequel is at least decent.

This is my least favourite Ace Attorney game that I've played. It's about four times as long as it needs to be with mountains of dreadful conversation and mostly rubbish cases.
