LeonhartFour 12/29/17 2:17:27 PM #473 | It's still a top 5 case despite its semi-rough finish. It is one of the weaker epic case finishes (probably only ahead of E1-5 and 4-4), but man, 5-5 has so many good individual pieces that I love it a lot anyway. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/29/17 1:25:27 PM #471 | also I've actually been skimming through 5-5 myself on YouTube since there's been so much talk about it from two different users who somehow were playing it at nearly the same time over 4 years after the game came out That Ponco cross-examination is super good. It's one of the most unique ones in the series. --- |

Topic | ace attorney topic: the return (spoilers for 1-5, AAI1-2) |
LeonhartFour 12/29/17 1:05:37 PM #468 | Yeah, the twist of who the Phantom is was the most impressive part of that sequence because I was like you and hadn't given it much thought until they force you to pick, and you realize it can't be anybody else. Reminded me a lot of a similar moment in Persona 4. The rest of it could've been done better, I guess, but like I said earlier, his Mood Matrix was A+ (as was Blackquill's earlier in the trial). Also, I think the Phantom gets about as much time as AAI2's Mastermind does, although he's not as good, so I don't think it's an issue of time. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/29/17 11:47:39 AM #276 | I finished chapters 4 and 5 of Professor Layton and the Unwound Future last night. They were both pretty short, but they were mostly an interlude to set the stage for the next act. The good news is that Flora is back, although Layton and Luke try to ditch her straight away. She, Chelmey, and Barton all trail them back to the clock shop and now they're all in the future! I understand Layton's concern for Flora's safety, but it's good to have her back! Just don't replace her with a body double this time! --- |

LeonhartFour 12/29/17 11:37:42 AM #466 | Paratroopa1 posted... It still remains weird to me that AAI2 has some of the BETTER voice work in the series, not worse I mean, the AAI2 fan translation team is just as qualified to do voice work as the OT staff, so it's not that surprising that they could put out something of similar quality. Ray's is the only one I really like though. The rest are mostly fine. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/29/17 1:34:42 AM #459 | Well, none of the original voice clips are done by professional VAs. They were just done by the staff, so that would probably explain the disparity for Edgeworth since I doubt they were recorded at the same time. I think Ben Judd (the guy who does Phoenix) said it took him literally dozens of takes just to get three usable clips. also Calisto Yew will always have the worst OBJECTION --- |

LeonhartFour 12/29/17 1:28:50 AM #269 | pjbasis posted... Also not sure if you read the original novel, but putting it on the perspective of Albert makes it more palatable to my modern sensibilities. I thought my post about the show made it pretty clear that I've read the book! But yeah, they started the plot at the point where the story stops just being from Edmond's perspective, which is kind of a shame because that part's really cool, but whatever. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/29/17 12:27:26 AM #252 | Anyway, the anime I decided on was The Count of Monte Cristo: Gankutsuou! Do you guys remember that Romeo & Juliet movie with Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes (it was Claire Danes, right?) where the story and the dialogue was all the same but it was set in the modern day, and it was critically panned? Well, this is sort of like that...except it's also set on the moon with a very psychedelic and eccentric art style. I don't even know how to describe what they're doing with everyone's hair and clothes here. I think I like it though! The plot starts during the middle of the novel, so they've basically skipped all of Edmond Dantes' backstory and how he became the Count of Monte Cristo. Also, it might have the most subdued OP I've ever seen, coupled with an ED that would fit right in with Persona 5 (it's literally entitled "You'll Never See Me Coming," which is an awesome title for a song considering the plot of the story). --- |

LeonhartFour 12/28/17 10:38:45 PM #27 | Well, I know there were issues that the Paragon/Renegade system created when it came to flexibility in decision-making, but I think I still preferred it over what Andromeda did. Also, Shepard is still kinda moldable in 3. Just not to the same extent as 1 and 2, obviously. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/28/17 9:36:07 PM #243 | In Fate....stay night, Also, everyone wants to walk Shiro to school, which hurts Sakura's feelings at first, but thankfully he's able to get everything sorted out, so that's a big relief. Rin even tries to run Sakura off again later on, but she stubbornly refuses to give in and charges in to make dinner anyway. Heck yeah, fight for your screentime! Don't let your sister of all people take it away from you! Even when she finds out Rin's going to be staying with Shiro, Sakura tells him she's not worried and she has complete faith in him. At the very least, she probably doesn't have to worry about Rin since we're not on the UBW route this time...! I guess her primary rival in love this time will be Saber, because who else is there? Well, I guess there's crazy teacher lady, but I doubt it. Plus, Shiro and Saber keep bickering like an old married couple all the time here. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/28/17 8:41:35 PM #231 | Eh, with Chrono Cross, it has good stuff in it, but I've never wanted to replay the game since I beat it. It's not strong enough in areas I'd like it to be strong in to counterbalance that. I'm not a huge Chrono Trigger fan either though. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/28/17 8:36:34 PM #125 | ChampionCloud posted... Also yes, Necron is much harder than Ulti because Necron can conceivably kill you if he gets lucky. I mean not really he can kill you if you're not paying attention but he doesn't have any "lucky" insta-kills and he's kinda slow ChampionCloud posted... 2: You for some reason didn't equip all members of your team and she chooses those 3 randomly and kills you straight off. you do realize that if a party member dies in the final fight, another one comes to take their place, right? you'll eventually get to the ones you want if it becomes problematic (or you're like me and you just kill off the ones you don't want until you get the ones you do) Ultimecia actually has to kill all six party members to win --- |

LeonhartFour 12/28/17 8:26:16 PM #226 | I'm probably in the same general league as Jeff Zero when it comes to Star Wars fandom, but I really liked it. I'm also generally pliable and easy to please. Even when it comes to stuff I don't like (and there are things about TLJ I don't like), I just accept them and move on rather than getting stuck on why they're bad or trying to head-canon them out of existence. I prefer to focus on what I like more than what I don't like, so I guess I'm more tolerant of things that are technically "flawed" but have a lot of good things going for them (like my favorite game FFVIII, for instance). --- |

LeonhartFour 12/28/17 8:16:38 PM #455 | Eh, I dunno. Like, all of Edgeworth's original sound clips EXCEPT his Objection are kinda bad. They don't even all sound like they're from the same person. The OT tries to be a lot more over the top with the sound clips (like Payne's OBJEKSHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN or Alba's HUBJECTION), so maybe people like that better than just them yelling the word at a high volume. --- |

LeonhartFour 12/28/17 7:49:59 PM #115 | NeoElfboy posted... Junctioning's a decent idea but it needed to be tied to simply to what spell you place there, not "do you have 1 or 100". I mean, it kind of is. Certain spells junction better with some stats than others, and they're kind of predictable. Haste and Triple are best on Speed, for instance. ChampionCloud posted... In fact, Barthandalus 1 is probably the hardest non NES (non Spin off) fight in the series. what? no ChampionCloud posted... What version of IV did you play first time through? The PS1 port. --- |
