I don't get why Capcom doesn't bring this series to other platforms besides Nintendo and IOS. Do they see it as not profitable? But that shouldn't be the case when stuff like Danganronpa sells well and there's probably an overlap between people who play this and stuff like that and Danganronpa went on Steam and all.

He was fucked pretty bad, with a lot of years taken off him. He needed to rebuild his career. It's not something you shed off so easily.

Massive experience with piracy. AA was one of the most heavily pirated games on the DS. I remember years back when Capcom was vocally incensed that AAI's ROM was on pirate websites a day after release. That's why AAI2 wasn't released in English.

>>385741907
When you see things from his perspective in the MASON thing, you can see that inside, he's still the same old Wright. He just puts on a facade that makes everyone think he has it all together. The only reason he wasn't goofy or caught off guard in AA4 was because he was on this case for SEVEN FUCKING YEARS. He knew everything already. Nothing could surprise him and he literally knew more than everyone else.

The reason he seems worse in AA5 and AA6 is because we're back to seeing things from his shoes. But whenever we see him from Polly or Athena's perspectives, he looks way more formidable, mature and skilled. Remember, this guy's known for his bluffs; half his tactics involve pretending to know more than he lets on. During the civil trial, when we see him as an antagonist, he's actually pretty intimidating; the only reason he lost was because he was trying to stall a case that he knew he had no grounds on.

Unfortunately, the main team is way too afraid of drastically changing a character, like Phoenix and Ema were in AJ.

That's why Pearl/Maya/Larry etc. are all still the fucking same despite the timeskip.

It just shows you how much the devs are afraid of breaking the status quo, and that they only make characters return for nostalgia fanpandering.

I was only counting the mainline games in that comparison but yeah AAI is worse than Apollo Justice.
I think the series would beneficial from a new protagonist if the new team is in charge cause while I liked DD and SoJ the static characters get more and more grating as time goes by.

I'm not convinced with that reasoning honestly. Losing everything and having to kid dumped on you would fundamentally change any person I think.

I'm not saying that he should've gone full edgelord or whatever but they backpedalled way too hard with his character in DD, but for Trucy showing up sometimes it almost felt like AJ didn't even happen to him. DD wasn't set that long after AJ itself either so you can't pull that excuse.

The series doesn't actually need a new protagonist at all, the devs being convinced that it does is what's shitting the series up. It's not that I'm especially attached to Phoenix either, personally I think he does his job as the protag and not much more even. It's literally everything else around the MC that makes this series function though - the courtroom being constantly against you at all fucking times, the witness and shit having unreliable or mistaken testimonies, the general banter you have with characters in the investigations, the other characters pretty much covering all the sobstory shit for you, and so on. Not saying that the protag having a backstory at all is bad but it doesn't need to be focused on as much as it has in recent games, they don't need THAT much personal motivation to do their literal jobs.

Pretty sure that was intentional on the devs' part. Athena felt more like Phoenix's daughter than Trucy did in that game, I don't think he's ever defended anyone as staunchly/blindly or constantly comforted in the previous games as he did for Athena in DD.

If AJ didn't happen, I would agree. Phoenix was a perfectly fine main character. He was still just 3 years a lawyer. But you could see development for him was already sort of flat in T&T. They had to revisit Mia Fey again, and they could never let go of Edgeworth, for some reason.

They should have just created a new trilogy with still Phoenix as the MC. He needed a new sort-of rival like Edgeworth to feature in the new trilogy. Also, they should've developed his romance with Maya, like everyone expected.

You know what they REALLY need? Like, seriously? Legitimately good, thoughtful cases. Cases that really make you think. Puzzling, bizarre, but still somehow following some logic. I mean, I get how difficult this is. Thinking up a good puzzle can sometimes be harder than most other types of games, but if you really create an interesting rollercoaster of a case, then it doesn't matter who the protagonist is; Nick, Polly or Athena, they'll all be forced to approach and react to it in interesting ways.

For the protagonist, what's really important are two factors: the range of emotions and thoughts that the protagonist is capable of, and how well the protagonist can reflect the likely response of the player. Nick himself was originally designed to be a stand-in for the player, so his train of thought was designed to hopefully reflect what the player would be thinking. In short, what's important for the protagonist of a series like this isn't backstory or development, but how strongly the player is capable of resonating with them.

More like it would had been boring to play as some emotionless cryptic douchebag. Seeing Phoenix react to all the craziness of the series in an over-the-top way is part of the series appeal, just having him be entirely straight faced would be more boring then any "regression" that people accuse him of going of.
>>
I would have preferred them to just outright say AJ 'didn't count,' but they did their best to fix the jump the shark moment that was that game.

I'm just miffed about how off the rails that single entry took the franchise. I mean it's telling in how all the spin off material, like the Professor Layton crossover, it's still classic Phoenix and Maya.

That first case was magical, the pure mindfuck of it was probably the greatest thing to come from AJ.

MGS2 actually had intent behind all its mind-fuckery. You can even see it in the marketing. They hid the fact that Raiden was the main character.

As much as people shit on Kojima, it was a genuine subversion of expectations he was aiming for.

AJ? Not so much. Phoenix was straight up shoved in the game late due to producers wanting a familiar face.

It's more MGS2 though.

You play as a new character, and the previous protag gets shit on hard in the beginning, but comes back and steals the whole show while upstaging the new protag.

I didn't think playing as Phoenix in AJ's Mason System segment was boring, personally. Some of the best dialog and tension in that game happens in that section even.

Like some people mentioned before, he spent years raising a kid, he shouldn't have regressed as a character that hard in DD. Surely there's some sort of decent middle ground here?
>>
>>385749230
Middle ground would imply that Capcom didn't think the entirety of AJ was a burning trash heap. They did the best they could do to fix the damage without outright stamping the entry as non-canon.
>>
>>385748762
>Phoenix was straight up shoved in the game late due to producers wanting a familiar face.
>shoved in the game late
Tall tale by the fans. It's possible that Phoenix wasn't in the game at the conceptual stage but all throughout developmentfrom what's been told about the game it seems like he was there. Takumi personally didn't want to bring him back, people are conflating that with this idea that he was shoved into the game at the last second.

Even if Phoenix wasn't in the game at concept phase, that alone isn't that big a deal either, we've had bigger changes than that before. AAI1 was originally thought up as an Ema Skye game, AA5 was initially planned to feature Apollo's dad, AA6 originally didn't involve Khurain at all but instead Phoenix getting mixed up in the criminal underworld, and so on.

What a lot of people don't really understand is that Wright is ALWAYS the goofball he is. The only difference between his portrayal in AJ and the rest of the games is that we don't have access to his inner monologue.

Take the first half of Turnabout Revolution for example when you're up against him as Apollo. He's serious as fuck and seems prepared for literally everything you throw at him, despite his client clearly being in the wrong. That's what Wright looks like without you being able to hear his thoughts on stuff.
>>
>>385750274
>after three games of goofy Wright who is always in need of help, this new personality was actually really interesting to see

Except now he's a dirt poor hoarder who's raising another man's daughter. But no, his state in life totally isn't a fucking embarrassment and insult to all the character development of the previous games.

I don't get at all where you're seeing Phoenix was always in need of help. The basically only ever lost one case, and that was intentionally.

>>385750521
People didn't want to see his entire character development over a trilogy get thrown in the trash.

You people don't fucking think. Phoenix literally lost his ability to be an attorney /months/ after T&T. He was only a lawyer for three years, and then became a hobo for seven.

You wonder why Capcom ignores this? Cause they realize it was fucking retarded.
>>
>>385749889
>The locks did break
No, they didn't. The locks are more than just "oh he's hiding a secret".
Black ones mean that he himself didn't know the reason, they're the unconscious locks.

>They dragged him into court and proved it
They did no such thing, they only got a guilty verdict because it was an experimental jury system. A system which Phoenix himself fucking designed. Do you not see the conflict of interest here?
You know damn well had this been a regular trial he'd have gotten away scott-free
Hell, one of the fucking jurors was the WIDOW OF THE MAN HE FUCKING KILLED

>People didn't want to see his entire character development over a trilogy get thrown in the trash.
Why are you arguing that he should still be the same bumbling lawyer?

>You wonder why Capcom ignores this? Cause they realize it was fucking retarded.
It's fucking retarded to pretend it didn't happen, it's out there so they should salvage it - and it is salvageable, but instead of trying to do that they instead just sort of but not really pretending it doesn't happen.

If they really wanted to fuck AJ they would've just rebooted the entire series.
>>
>>385750893
Technically he gets away anyway, it wasn't his trial.
>>
>>385750653
DGS is by Takumi. The reason people hate it is because of the non-main characters, writing, pacing and mysteries.

For example: Case 4 of DGS is 8 hours long: 5 of it is in investigation, 3 of it is in trial.

During the 5 hours of investigation, you get 2 (TWO) pieces of evidence. And during the trial, you spend an hour and a half proving something that has nothing to do with the crime itself. The witness and the killer in Case 4 are considered some of the worst characters in the series.

Case 2 is all investigation, but the crime is nonsensically bad

Case 5 feels like it was a case 2, but upgraded to a case 5, the villian feels like a case 2 villian, the crime feels like a case 2 crime.

Yet how many times does he pull through?

Been driving an EMT for years, I still have moments where I'm mentally screaming "Sweet fucking Jesus, this is fucked and we're completely fucked." If you think everyone that acts calm and collected also thinks calm and collected, then you're retarded.

>Apollo Justice is the worst AA game and had only 2 good cases
How was DD any better? Cases were alright at best, story was completely stupid and there was 0 investigation

>>385750274
Mainly because you can't read his thoughts anymore.
Come on, it was even mentioned in the game how he's got a stonecold pokerface. He was also often pretending to not give a fuck

>>385747841
A lot better than DD. You finally need to somewhat investigate and put something together.
>>
>>385751667
As an EMT*, fuck.
>>
>>385751662
>>385751667
He is exactly the same as he is in the first case of the first game.
The same bumbling idiot.

Its like the entire series didn't happen
I think in soj and DD he is more bumbling than in AA2 and 3.
>>
>>385750723
It's not just specific to in the courtroom either. You see him as an NPC throughout DD too and he comes off as way more competent in general (5-3's the best example of this I think) You see Apollo and Athena from different perspectives too but they always seem sort of spastic somehow even when the game tries to make them "cool", I guess it's because they're inherantly more over-emotional characters.
>>
I just finished Justice For All and it was inferior to the first one. Turnabout Big Top is the worst case i've played. Trials and Tribulations is better ?
>>
>>385751797
Bumbling idiot? He's won some of the most absurd court cases ever, and beaten the most renowned prosecutors.

If a man can't have panic moments in his head- /head/, mind you, his own thoughts, then where can he?
>>
>>385751980
>He's won some of the most absurd court cases ever,
And? He was bumbling through them.

Nothing ever had the stakes of like 2-4 so don't tell me this should hit harder than that case.
>>
Do you guys think apollo will appear in the next game or he will be still stuck in monktown
>>
>>385751980
>If a man can't have panic moments in his head-
So just wondering. Canonically all these animations of him sweating and stuff and showing the entire world how insecure he is are just in his head?
>>
>>385752132
Yep, pretty much.
>>
>>385752049
>And? He was bumbling through them.

How? And can you make an argument that doesn't ignore the fact that the series in inherently humorous?

>>385752132
The man is literally known for having a superb poker face. Like, a literal poker face.

In all seriousness, JFA case 4 is one of the best cases in the entire series
>>
>>385747841
They unfucked the investigations, but the crimes themselves are some of the most obtuse in the entire series. Character banter is alright, though the final case pretty much turns almost all old and new characters into bumbling retards for the sake of trying to make one specific character look better and your enjoyment of the case will be dependant on how okay you are with that.

I thought it was obvious that some of the reactions of characters were hyperbolic, and meant to more display their emotional state?

I remember Manfred slamming his head against thing in frustration when Phoenix cornered him.

They are a bit over the top but come on. One moment he's sweating the bullets and the moment after he's standing there like it was nothing.

Fixed.

>>385741907
He's a lot more mature and takes on a mentor like role in AA5 and 6 (6 especially). He's not as depressed/cynical as he was in AA4 but he character hasn't regressed.
>>
>>385752756
Oh fuck off,
>body double
Was at least kinda fun, reminded me of the sillier cases from the original trilogy, like the one with the maid cafe.
>>
>>385752878
I just like change. I would've liked if his animations were still similar but more refined.

To me it seems like all the cases didn't happen because he hasn't learned anything from them.
>>
>>385752756
That case was fine. Not great, but not nearly as bad as the concert or the circus.
>>
>>385752756
DD really hasn't any standout bad cases.
But also nothing really good
Overall it is just meh

I take Justice for All over it just for the one case than the entirety of DD.

Because Ace Attorney is a AA series and handheld have always been cheap to develop for.

Besides, putting the franchise on other platforms (namely PC) would just attract a shitload of cancerous casual faggots into the fanbase. Look what accessibility and PC versions of DR did for that fanbase, it made it even more shit. A new and proper release of the games on other platforms would garner attention and hype from casuals. Just imagine the typical reddit-tier "PC Masterrace xD" kiddie trying to appreciate the games properly, that ain't fucking happening. Imagine the fucking e-celebs/streamers that would jump on the bandwagon too:
>"Top 10 most shocking Ace Attorney breakdowns" with a Reaction Cam thumbnail
>"Dude anime lmao xD"
>"Maya is my waifu! xD"

Another thing is that if the games were ported to different they'd almost certainly be the shitty Trilogy version from iOS/3DS so they'd be playing a shit version of the game and judging them from that.

Blackquill and Athena spin-off when?
They had good chemistry.
>>
>>385754849
They didn't rewrite the game, that's just people trying to justify Apollo sucking in it. Half the cases in that game barely feature Phoenix at all and Apollo's no different in those cases even.

Besides, the series went on to produce a game (albeit it's a spin-off) where Phoenix gets overshadowed even harder than Apollo ever did, and then sometime after that Apollo gets a case that is the franchise's biggest example of everyone being turned into a complete shitter just to make him look better. Why are there still guys still complaining about the shit you're saying, the series has left you faggots behind already.
