LeonhartFour 04/17/18 12:52:04 AM #407 | In Trails the 3rd news, Of course, everyone has plenty to say to Cassius once the fight is over, and he has plenty to tell them. It seems he knows who the Lord of Nonsense is because of course he does. My shot in the dark guess here is Rufina. I've noticed that they never refer to the Lord of Nonsense with gendered pronouns. It's always just "they," which means they're trying to keep the gender ambiguous. I feel like they might only do that if the gender mattered and it's not the one you might think, but I could be wrong. Next up is a direct challenge from Schwarzritter to Joshua upon the Black Ark, which just turns out to be a recreation of the Glorious, only instead of crimson, it's--you guessed it--black. Since Joshua is required here, I can just roll with my Kevin/Estelle/Joshua/Kloe party here. It's nice that I was able to keep them together for two of the four trials. The final one will have to wait until later though. --- |

LeonhartFour 04/17/18 12:38:24 AM #7 | Paratroopa1 posted... it has some real problems - I particularly hate the segment where they go outside and figure out the trick with the lights because it serves NO purpose and doesn't connect to the rest of the crime in any way Yeah, E1-5 feels kinda disjointed at times, and that's probably the biggest example. Pretty much the only real takeaway from that segment is learning about the auto-refilling pool that they used to put out the fires (which you later use to piece together how Shih-na crossed into Babahl without anyone knowing), but it's not like you couldn't have learned about that some other way. And yeah, I don't think the Alba showdown is as bad as people make it out to be. He actually becomes a legit opponent once Lang strips him of his title because he can't just stonewall you with his authority anymore. The last couple of testimonies are really good, but I can't blame anyone for being worn down and ready for the case to be over at that point. --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 5:34:45 PM #399 | xp1337 posted... So if the topic comes up with the gang talking about the trip later and Joker is also dating Ann, assuming he picked one the truth comes out and results in broken links. See, I don't like this concept either. One of the things they talked about was having real consequences to dating multiple girls, which I think is a pretty bad idea. Or at least the idea of having unavoidable real consequences is bad because collecting a harem is one of the appeals of Persona, whether some people want to admit it or not. I think you'd get a lot of backlash if they just took the fun out of that. Now if you have potential crossroads where you could get busted if you make a wrong choice, then sure, that would add some tension, but it shouldn't be an inevitability. --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 5:21:59 PM #396 | xp1337 posted... I feel like Golden was really the only one that tried. P5 walked it back as far as I remember and P3/P4 vanilla didn't do much with it either. Golden probably had more, but then P5 Crimson probably will, too...! But you still have events tied to your S. Links, like the school trip and the school festival, and obviously Christmas and Valentine's Day, too. The idea of being able to hang out with multiple S. Links on the same day is a really good one, although P5 did a good job of having your Confidants cross paths with each other when you choose to hang out. It'd just be better if you had more control over it. --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 5:10:17 PM #390 | Well yeah, but the games already do stuff like that. Like, if you want it to legitimately affect the game in a real way (which seems to be what that suggestion is implying), that's a lot more difficult. Perhaps the only way you could do it is to make someone joining your party dependent on advancing their S. Link. --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 5:05:48 PM #388 | xp1337 posted... But better integration of S-Links into the main story with consequences is the holy grail. it's a great idea on paper but since everyone does S. Links at different paces and goes after some more than others, it'd be kinda difficult to implement effectively in reality, at least beyond what they already do with them --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 1:06:42 PM #495 | NeoElfboy posted... C'mon Leon, you're better than this. Address my arguments instead of speaking authoritatively about what everyone else does and doesn't care about, or don't address them at all. I already said (and so did Para) that I don't agree about Lang being a poor judge of character on the basis of him not realizing Shih-na was a mole, so it just sounds like you're listening poorly if you think that's why I'd think that's a cool thing. That is why I was dismissive about that point. Shih-na effectively deceived everyone she's ever worked for (She was destined to betray everyone from the very beginning, after all), so unless you want to say Alba, Coachen, Badd, and Byrne (and pretty much everyone who's ever met Shih-na/Yew, which would include Edgeworth and Franziska) are all poor judges of character, too, this is a pretty flimsy assessment of Lang's character. The much easier conclusion is that Shih-na is just super good at what she does. Lang has 100+ men who are super loyal to him, but sure, okay, it's firmly established that he's a poor judge of character on the basis of the one black sheep. I guess everyone who met Fulbright in DD is a poor judge of character, too. Actually, I guess everyone in the Ace Attorney universe is a poor judge of character because they all get misled by someone at some point. Phoenix Wright: Firmly established poor judge of character because he defended a guilty person once. NeoElfboy posted... It's a paper-thin "study", which pretty much boils down to "character A is GOOD, character B is BAD" Pro-tip: Foils are the best. You can boil down any foil to Character A is THIS and Character B is THAT, but that's the definition of oversimplification. NeoElfboy posted... And because Zheng Fa is never seen and only rarely mentioned, we don't even get a good study in the ways that he's a worse president anyway. (Apparently he's still good enough to win re-election.) If it was the real president all along, then either Lang was just wrong about him all along (which is boring), or he's become a corrupt politician over the years and the fact that he used to be good is just an informed attribute we never actually get to see (which is also boring). --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 3:10:52 AM #493 | E1-5's biggest problem in End is the fact that Badd gives you the directives card and the tape as trump cards and urges Edgeworth to use them even though they're illegal since the ringleader is "above the law," and they make it out to be like this is what's totally going to bring him down then they give Edgeworth a faux-dilemma over whether to use the trump card and even after you use it, Alba just shrugs it off and the case goes on for two more hours the only purpose of the trump card is to get Alba to transform, which kinda feels like a waste there was a way to have the case end well with the structure it currently has but they eschewed it in favor of overloading you with every character in the case saving the day at the last second before Alba gets away the funny thing is E2-5 ends the same way but everyone lauds it --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 12:51:08 AM #492 | NeoElfboy posted... Is it redemption for Lang being a poor judge of character in the first game...? no you're the only one who seems to care about that NeoElfboy posted... One of the many reasons the plot twist is dumb is because a president becoming weighed down by expectations and responsibilities over the years was a pretty neat plotline! Sometimes "cool" people become less cool when the world grinds them down. By saying "nah man it's just a fake who's a loser" you throw that out. it's more that the fake got tired of being the fake, thought he could do just as good of a job since he's been pretending to be him this whole time, and discovers that he can't since while he may look like him on the outside they couldn't be any more different on the inside it's a pretty excellent study in contrasts the real president being as cool as Lang says he was all along is much better than him just turning into a douchebag over the years too --- |
Topic | Ace Attorney Topic Part 4: The Happening (Spoilers for AA1-6, AAI1-2) |
LeonhartFour 04/16/18 12:33:41 AM #490 | NeoElfboy posted... So it mostly connects to Lang and eh, we've come full circle - I don't think Lang is that central to AAI2. yeah but I don't actually care if Lang is central to the game or not since he doesn't have to be for the moment to be great NeoElfboy posted... I mean the obvious real connection is that the coverup of the body double crime helped create Simon Keyes as we know him in the first place, but exactly what that crime was is rather unimportant. yeah but the crime doesn't have to be important to be great plus it makes total sense in hindsight with E2-1 because Lang hypes up the president of Zheng Fa as this ultra cool dude and when you meet him in E2-1 he just isn't then you find out that the real president literally asked Dogen to give him a few extra minutes before assassinating him so he could meet his son for the first time and you realize holy crap Lang was right the real president is an ultra cool dude it's just proof that you don't have to meet a character for them to be great same thing with Manny Coachen here dude is absolutely one of the best victims in the series --- |

LeonhartFour 04/16/18 12:16:07 AM #487 | Anyway, E1-5 Middle is finally complete after nearly 2500 lines. Edgeworth racked up over 1000 lines by himself, but eight other characters had over 100 (with three of those going over 200). I don't expect very many other segments to reach that mark. E2-5 Beginning is sadly way too long for its own good, so it might get there. 6-5 Trial Day 2 will probably challenge it, too. --- |
Topic | Ace Attorney Topic Part 4: The Happening (Spoilers for AA1-6, AAI1-2) |
LeonhartFour 04/16/18 12:12:32 AM #486 | NeoElfboy posted... It's a pretty major detail if you actually care about the backstory plot. It's fine if you don't, but I'm not sure why you'd hype the fake president stuff in that case. it's not an important detail at all that's why like the effect the body double had on Zheng Fa and its government is pretty insignificant to the story, it's just a tertiary detail it's more the connection to Lang and the original president that's important (and to Simon, Marsh, and Dogen too I guess but they're not as big of a deal) NeoElfboy posted... Is E1-5 on track to break the line record? I assume so. Nope, it's not even going to come close. E1-5 Middle is massive. E1-5 End is big. E1-5 Beginning isn't that long though. --- |
