I just started playing AAI1 again and I'm having A LOT more fun this time around, now that I haven't recently played the 6 main games in quick succession. Stuff like Gumshoe's and Franziska's quirks feel more tolerable now and I'm not constantly comparing this game to the others.

I remember hating the fuck out of I1-1 the first time and now I liked it. The villain is actually pretty decent, might be better than most games' first case villains. He just needed fewer coat moving animations, I guess.

I1-2 feels a little to too slow, though. You have to defend yourself against a whopping 3 different people and that's kind of repetitive. Though it has a good plot and some good characters, other than Lablanc (then again, Lablanc gives us that epic falling scene and a good efeat animation).

Also liking how this game has a thing where is slowly builds the main mystery bit by bit every case. AA3, 4 and 6 attempted that, but not with every case like this one.

The main problem is that debates just don't feel as exciting as trials. There is something about the lack of tension that makes the whole thing a little more chore-y. Maybe later cases will improve that somehow.

And I keep saying that every time, but the soundtrack is an absolute 10/10 and makes the boring parts more fun to play.

Last time I only beat the first 2 cases. Now I just finished those two cases again. Let's see what happens next.

Not sure if I'm gonna make this a playthrough thread because I'm kind of burned out from the Danganronpa one. Also I think I've already learned the identities of every killer in this game by reading other B8 threads back in 2016. I did forget their names after all this time, but I might remember them when I see them.

But maybe I'll post my after-case thoughts here, if this thread doesn't purge.
