Never considered this but yeah, it's crazy how well that works now that I think about it.

I was just always thinking one timeline after T&T where Wright wins happily ever after (I dunno, maybe Gavin draws better cards), and another where AJ happened.

Phoenix flat-out references that a friend of his is still around and sending him Steel Samurai tapes to watch in AJ, so I"m really not sure how that would work if that isn't Maya. Unless it's Pearl, but that's stretching it.

But I'm one of the few that doesn't think AJ was a disgrace to the entire series so what do I know.

But bad end has Maya survive.

Sure he claims that he doesn't speak to her anymore in the bad end, but a lot can change in, what, eight years?

Edgeworth is a big Steel Samurai fan, so I buy it.

And again, I said it was like putting the square block into the round hole, so it's not a perfect fit, but you wouldn't have to change anything major to make it fit.

This is also good, but Phoenix and Iris talking to each other at the end is the most emotional part of the case for me. Maybe the most emotional part of the series, honestly. The end of 2-4 comes close there, but that's it.

I don't really think Phoenix/Maya is a very good pairing, and nothing in the game really points to it other than Pearl wanting them to end up together to fulfill her fairy tale fantasy love.

To be fair, Layton vs AA is coming out, the movie is coming out, and AAI came out last year. It's more like they just want to keep it in Japan, not "kill" it.

Well, Layton/Ace Attorney is getting an English localization.

But he's right about Capcom refusing to move the series forward beyond Apollo Justice. The Edgeworth games happen before 4-0 occurs.

Back to the good stuff, my friend just finished 3-5 and she was blow away by it. PW3 is probably my favorite game ever too.

This is because of the wretched fans of Apollo Justice. There are actually people who would be angry to have Apollo Justice kicked aside and forgotten.

I think these Edgeworth games and movies and crossovers are just them trying to buy time, hoping to distance themselves from AJ's release so it won't be such a big deal if they decide the next game ignores AJ's existence. Like if the next main Ace Attorney game were twenty years from now, and it followed Phoenix Wright in his fourth year of being an attorney, completely ignoring what AJ says happens that year, people would be too happy that the series is back to care.

I was just using going back to Phoenix as an example of something they could get away with after a long enough hiatus. I, too, would want a new main character who isn't Apollo Justice, and preferably isn't completely overshadowed by a previous character like Apollo was.

I honestly like Apollo as a character. He just needed a game entirely to himself so he could develop and not be in Phoenix's shadow.

Of course, it'd be hard to continue his arc at this point if you are intent on ignoring all that the first game did unless you just want to do a reboot or something.

I don't like Apollo. He's cut from that young, passionate but dumb cloth that too many Japanese video game heroes come from. I mean I know he's in his early twenties or whatever, but I'd forgive anyone who's played the game for assuming he's another Franziska von Improbablyyoungattorney before looking at his official age.

I pretty much agree entirely with Leon about Apollo.

I'm a little less bedazzled by PW3's ending, though; I generally wasn't as pleased as I could have been with the post-Dahlia stuff. Maybe that's why I seem a little less big on the game than most of B8? (It's still really good, mind!)

Apollo is alright. There are just two big problems with him. Right now, he's Phoenix Wright Lite. He is just way too similar to being Phoenix, but he doesn't have the emotional draw that Phoenix has. They need to do something about his character imho.

Another thing is that he has zero development. Klavier and Hobonix pretty much guided Apollo to victory in all of Apollo Justice and he hasn't done anything for himself. They really need to get something going with that guy.

Well, I don't mind Apollo being Phoenix-lite in the first game, but yeah, he needs some proper development of his own. It's just strange how little development he actually gets. Phoenix Wright was essentially a fully developed character by the end of the first game. PW1 can essentially stand on its own without needing the other games to complete his character.

Everyone says he's Phoenix-lite, but I just don't see it. Phoenix's inner commentary is always snarky and kind of cranky and dickish. Apollo's is just generally softer and nicer most of the time, I think. I don't particularly like it.

Phoenix and Apollo are both pretty sarcastic and uptight in a lot of their inner monologue (such as getting upset at Maya/Trucy for suggesting doing something illegal or immoral). They're very "by the book," which is to be expected since they're lawyers.

The content of their inner monologue is usually pretty different though.

I think Phoenix reacts to the craziness of the world with more snark, while Apollo reacts to it with more deadpan. It is somewhat two takes on a similar idea. I like both well enough though. Phoenix just has more actual development, even in his first game.

I generally feel like I like AJ's cast more than most (well, excluding its villains, I hate the main one) but dislike its plot more.

I generally consider AJ's cast to be a bit boring, mostly because Capcom for some reason gives you less extra dialogue from presenting things to witnesses and stuff, which is one of my favorite aspects of the PW games (AAI's a little guilty of this as well, but it's a bit better than AJ).

Although I think AJ's biggest weakness is just crappy, crappy, crappy defendants, 4-1 aside. I dislike all of them.
