It's nice to think that, six games in, Ace Attorney still finds ways to surprise you with awesome twists. Granted, many of those are thanks to the absurd premise, but it just works because the game knows it.
Less absurd is the surprisingly consistent characterization, complete with satisfying arcs and development. The best thing about these games is that they're not afraid to move the story forward, something that started with Apollo Justice for the DS.
While some may find the series's growing linearity troubling, I find myself less frustrated at the broken throught process of the first 3-4 games. The price to pay is that there are fewer instances of logic thinking and the satisfaction of finding the right piece of evidence. But the benefit is just being able to sit back and enjoy this fun and bonkers story.
