Topic	Reminder that Turnabout Big Top is a great case and the hate's largely unfounded
dotsdfe 12/14/19 3:41:22 PM #18:	I've always thought that 2-3 is really underrated too. It's at 25/44 in my case ranking for the whole series (minus DGS since I didn't play that). It's kind of lowkey one of the darkest cases, and I really like how it touches on people accept and deal with death and tragedy. For a series so focused on death, not many other cases have hit at just how those deaths impact the people around them, and seeing how the circus members all dealt with it was great, particularly as Regina sees the events unfold and realizes that her dad really is gone and finally understands death in her own way. For a goofy case like that, it got pretty deep, and I really enjoyed that. [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Honestly, I'll be one of the first to preach 1-5's flaws, personally. The case tried to do way too much with the double victim thing, and ends up having a massive plot hole in that Meekins was attacked (on camera), unconscious for a significant period of time, and was taken into custody right after, and yet he shows up in Edgeworth's office during this time period where he should be unconscious (or taken in, but timeline-wise it was pretty shortly after the initial murder and I think he should still be KO'd, but either way there's no way he was able to be in that office. I also don't really think that the villain was particularly great. Namely in terms of how Gant was built up as this big imposing boss, but then as soon as you take him down (with evidence law being relevant for the literal only time in the series, which feels super super clunky and drags out the finale way past when it should have ended - especially taking away from the climax quite a bit), he kind of just says "Whoops! Yeah, guess I'm not great at committing crimes, huh?" and loses the entire effect. I was super on board with Gant as the big bad until the end of the case, where he totally lost his impact and just kinda backed down. Don't get me wrong, though. I don't think that 1-5 is a bad case by any means, I just think they tried to do too much with it and made it too long, leading to plot holes (like the one I mentioned among some smaller ones) and a somewhat lame climax. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest.
