https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzrMZgZhCGwIs the guy in Katrielle's imagination at the end adult Luke? I mean, the real one?
I like the choice of VA
Suits the role
Wasn't expecting that voice for her
>>381230697
Very cute.
I haven't played any Layton games, though. Should I?
At the end she's referencing stuff from past games right? A magical box, a letter from the future, and i'm not sure on the other one since i only ever played the first 3 Layton games.
>>381231692
Depends on what you look for in a game, but if you like the idea of solving riddles and puzzles while calmly exploring screens with beautiful vistas and amazing music, you should give it a shot. It's really easy to get attached to the characters too.
>>381231951
They're slightly warped idealizations of the second, third and sixth game, yeah.

I really don't like the style of 3D models this uses. How nice the animated cutscenes look only makes their poor quality stand out more even.
>get to play dressup with a qt /fa/ London girl
I wonder if Uchikoshi played the first three Layton games becauseVirtue's Last Reward took all three twists and made it work. I guess the trade off there is between puzzles and stories.

>>381232835
She's adopted, of course.
>>381232651
She's certainly a far cry from the professor in terms of style and outfits. I remember one of the NPCs telling him he had to renovate his wardrobe and him awkwardly walking away from the conversation.
>sjws have won

That's because they got an actual fashion design to create her outfits

Oh shit, fifty puzzles for fifty days? And it will let you transfer stuff to the full game? This is great, I guess it's time for daily Layton threads.
>>381233509
It's not really "Talking dog" but "hearing the animal" because yes, it is, Luke is able to hears and talk to animal.
>>381233509
There are characters who can talk to animals (and the cutscenes show said animals outright talking in human language when said character is around), but this seems to be the first case of a talking animal everyone can understand.
>>381233509
she can probably talk to animals like luke could

>>381234792
yes
>>381234792
No, it will be a painless death
>>381234792
Half the puzzles are basic math/logic, 25% is multiple choice with 3-4 choices you can repeat and 25% are actual puzzles with some BULLSHIT sprinkled

>>381234792
I'd say about 75% of puzzles you can eventually work out, the other 25% will make you feel like a fucking retard
>>381232998
C is weird
I'm doing the second puzzle right now with the word blocks.
Literally what the fuck is this shit?
HOW DOES SHE KNOWS WHERE I LIVE?!
>>381237017
If you fuck up too many puzzles, Layton appears at night and rips your kidney off.
>>381236242
Insert the blocks into the squares and read the letters corresponding to each one of the numbers on the blocks from 1 to 4. Then pick out the corresponding letter to form the question at the end. The problem is that two vital word blocks aren't live yet, and while I can easily deduce #15, #9 would require me to just wing it. Looks like 5000 people already solved it though, so it can't be that hard.B E F O R E _ (answer to #9) ->
_ _ _ (the actual answer)
>>381237462
i dont see any blocks. is my puzzle fucked up?
>>381234454
Luke the father, Flora the mother. both die and Layton has to raise their daughter.
Layton dies an autistic puzzle solving virgin.
>>381237695
Click on the numbers from 1 to 15 at the top of the page and you'll be transported to various Japanese pages with the blocks on them. #8 looks like this, for instance.
>>381237908
well fuck. that makes it a little easier

>mou, brainlet-kun...
>>381237462
>>381237908
i still dont get it
By the way, I'm glad she's not always serious. She's shaping up to be a great character.
>>381237745
Luke belongs to Arianna!!
>>381238914
If you solve the puzzles in each site, you end up with a 4 letter word. The answer to the first one is YEAR. You need to write it in the table. Then you'll notice a letter is overlapping one of them, in this case the "E", you need to transfer that letter to the small table at the bottom. no idea what to do after this
What Layton game do i start with?
>>381232784
It's a game with a majority female fanbase. Layton himself was designed to appeal to the soap opera audience, i.e. older ladies.
It's one of the few times where a female protagonist actually makes a lot of sense.
>>381241201
The Curious Village, the first one.
>>381241518
How many of the games can i emulate?
>>381241613
There shouldn't be any problem using a DS emulator for the first four (Curious Village -> Diabolical Box -> Unwound Future -> Last Specter). I don't know what the status of the Citra 3DS emulator is to play the other three released so far (Miracle Mask -> Azran Legacy, plus the crossover Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney).
>>381230697
OLD HAG
L
D
H
A
G
>>381241613
All of the ones that matter.
Incidentally, the European versions are canon, but the American version of the fourth game (Spectre's Call in UK, Last Specter in NA) has a cute bonus mode that the UK version lacks.
>>381241803
>Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney
Is that canon? I have just finished the Ace Attorney series.
English trailer when?
>>381242138
Not really. Or rather, it doesn't contradict anything in either series, but it doesn't get referenced either, so it's only canon if you want to. It's theoretically set between Layton 2 and 3 and between AA 3 and 4.
I had no idea this was coming to 3DS. Will be nice to give it a good sendoff on Layton.
>>381242078
>Incidentally, the European versions are canon
Specifically, NoA pretty much gave up on the series after Miracle Mask. Azran Legacy and Ace Attorney both default to the UK names/voices/spellings if they would differ. The NA release of Eternal Diva also uses the UK dub.
I am bad at math and these games make me feel stupid for it.
>supporting SJWs taking over with female protagonists
Fuck off.
>>381230697
Might be good, she's cute and Layton games have decent puzzles even for a brainlet like me. The sample online puzzles are fun enough so far.
I solved puzzle 2 in the site. You need to clear all the puzzles on the different sites to get a four letter word, like YEAR or FORK. After that, you find the next clue that says "BEFORE N", you need to fill the squares with the letters A through M, and this will reveal 3 letters, that's the answer. I don't want to spoil it, but it's easy, even without filling the 9 and 15 lines in the table. It's a 3 letter word, the first letter is "A"
>>381242785
For the last time, there aren't any SJWs in Japan. This is purely so they can jack off.
Answer to puzzle B is "ACE"
You get all the words, or infer it based on clues. Then you get "BEFORE N" -> *Black square*
Which means color in all the squares with letters that come before "N", which spells out:
A
C
E
So what happened to the professor?
Did he just retire or?
>>381243760
I believe the plot, or at least a sub plot, is finding out where he went.
>>381243170
>>381243608
I don't get the last part.
>Which means color in all the squares with letters that come before "N"
Which squares? How do they spell out "ace"?
>>381232651
>that webm
HNNNNG
>>381233509
Luke is the mother
>>381244103
Once you fill out the whole chart *or partially, cuz it's still possible*
>>381244656
Oh shit. This feels like an endgame or postgame sort of puzzle, yet they made it the second one. Thanks.
>>381243405
Then where the fuck is Layton? Why is some bitch replacing him? Why couldn't they just have a game with Layton instead? Fuck off with your apologetic bullshit.
>all these brainlets
>>381244980
>Then where the fuck is Layton?
>>381243881
>Why is some bitch replacing him?
Because you can jack off to Layton.
>Why couldn't they just have a game with Layton instead?
Because Laytons story is over. Do you want some more Ace Attorney shit where they have to keep inventing backstories to keep a character relevant?
Are the wheel of fortune prizes fixed? Has everybody got Katrielle's pajamas, a hint coin and a striped stuffed cat from doing the first three puzzles? I'm hoping it's fixed so that doing all 50 puzzles always gives you all 30 items.
>>381245282
I'm rusty, man. It's been three years since the last Layton game.
>>381245620
I think not. I got the pajamas, some curtains and a wall clock.
>>381246110
Rats, I hope you can't randomly get too many hint coins and end up locked out of getting all items.
>>381234652
>>381232835
She's going to be adopted. You know it, I know it. We all know it.
Isn't this coming out on smartphones in the west exactly in a month too? It's weird we haven't seen any promotional stuff about its English release.
>>381245362
>Because Laytons story is over
Bullshit, Layton has no story of his own. The only time where a story is specifically about him is a subplot in the Unwound future, and even then he doesn't particularly change from it.
>>381249543
The prequel trilogy tells you every single detail about his past since his childhood too. He could have had further adventures after UF (and he certainly did), but he would've mostly been an observer rather than having personal stakes in them.
>>381249920
Apart from the final games of both trilogies, he didn't have any personal stakes in his other adventures. Besides the usual life-threatening situations and endangerements of a minor.
Tfw want to play the Layton games.
Tfw have to buy an R4 because running DS games from the SD card is shit
>>381230697
>Jap audio
But Layton is one of the few series which does work better in English.
>>381251869
Well, it's a Japanese trailer.
>>381245362
AA didn't need a new protag, even moreso than Layton. Devs don't even disagree, not when their answer for a new MC is someone who's 90% the same as the old one anyway. Phoenix was about as unuseable a protagonist at the end of AA3 as he was at the end of AA1.
Though, like Layton, who the MC is doesn't really matter too much as long as the setting (more specifically the focuses within the setting) is the same I guess.
>>381230697
Thank god this is coming to Mobile. Bye Bye 3DS now i'll be able to play Weeb games on my phone without it looking weird
>>381232651
I didn't expect to seefeetthis soon.
>>381230697
I know those are supposed to be eyelashes but they look like crows feet and it makes her look like a cake.
>>381253593
Well, she probably is a cake. I doubt she can be any younger than early 20s.
Puzzle 3 is more easy, but just in case, the answer isWEB
>>381232973
Nicely memed, kiddo.
>>381233198
Find it hard to be the case, Japanese makers don't like to drop continuities as much as American media.
never played Layton games before, so where should i start?
>>381234652
Adopted is the most likely case. Or it's Emmy.
>>381257060

>>381250253
Pretty Miracle Mask about one of his fucking friends you fucking idiot.
>>381234282
>short enough that she doesn't have to bend over to succ
Spoilers idc
It takes place in an alternate universe where Claire didn't die in the accident but died 5 years after birthing Layton's daughter. He builds a time machine to go back and save her but instead causes the accident in the original Layton's timeline. He is the villain in this series and you meet Luke along the way who is reluctant about telling you what happened.
>>381257246
The entire prequel trilogy is about the Hershel family and its problems so it's not like you need to find another reason. I'd even say that Layton's friend in Curious Village set up the entire puzzle for him, considering the plot twist and how he was the only outsider who was told about the "treasure." Only the Diabolical Box has a very loose reason for Layton to be a part of it.
>>381257745
Well, Layton's university professor "died" at the beginning and he wanted to solve the mystery of the box because of that.
>>381230697
Will LadyLayton-fag ever come back?
>>381258801
Good question. At least Mare is picking up the slack for Lady Layton and MR stuff.
>>381240043
Luke is a mega playboy who has solved hundreds of girls' puzzles.
Smartphone version? I-It will reach Europe, right guys?
>>381260267
Yes, it will do better than the 3DS version and make Level 5 start making games only for mobile
>>381260824
Not a bad idea. It's a bigger market than the 3ds and I doubt they're gonna make you pay jewels to solve puzzles.

YE i can guess that f is e for before,but what is the letter after it?
And is that the solution or is the solution just 3 letters?
Aparently for #9 and #15 we have to wait til the 22nd,but fuck why release the puzzle if it aint out yet?
>>381230697It's not Luke, in the part of the video that the guy was shown they were going over the previous game's plot. The dialogue roughly translates to "Perhaps we'll find a box that kills anyone who open's it or maybe we'll get a letter from the future or maybe we'll find the remains of a long lost civilisation!" The box refers to The Diabolical Box, the letter is referencing The Unwound Future and the long lost civilisation is referencing the Azran.
