I always wanted to try an Ace Attorney game, is this one a good place to start?

It's decent, but just start with the original trilogy

I really disliked it. I prefer the OG trilogy.

It's a fantastic game, and a stand-alone story, so you could start with it.
But I always recommend starting with the original trilogy, which you should be able to buy the collection for cheap.

best writing and localization in the series, but start with the original trilogy

They're all good stories. I played AA5 first before playing the original trilogy. Admittedly, playing AA5 beforehand made me dislike a couple cases in AA1, but they're all fun stories so you'll want to play them all.

With respect to the GAAC completed Great Ace Attorney 1 and that game was PHENOMENAL, head and shoulders in writing and gameplay over the others, but they're all story intensive with entertaining characters and mysteries to solve so I don't feel you'll miss out on anything starting here since GAA is self-contained.

I will say one thing I've appreciated is that the Logic and Reasoning Spectacular segments feel like they finally perfected the magnatama and bangle interrogation segments and made them fun. I didn't enjoy the latter two when I played the games but I doubt your opinion will change if you play GAA first.

Writing this out, I haven't thought of any compelling reason to start with the original trilogy over the GAAC, so... good luck I guess.

You start by playing any of them, it’s that simple.

I would start with the first one on DS (or the more modern ports, same shit) if only to get a feel for how the series began and the gimmicks it added over time. That, and the first three games range from good to great (mileage varies on Justice for All/AA2)

Pic related is a medium sized VN with gameplay so if you don't mind reading, yes it's a good start. The cases are easy and the handholding is massive for new players. You just need to READ and take notes.
Don't buy into the hype. Go for it with zero expectations.

It's a good game, but I'd highly recommend treating it as one big game rather than two separate games.

only 2nd part is good

No. Why would even consider playing this first when the OG trilogy is available on everything.

Play the original trilogy. It's on every system in the world.

Play the original Shu Takumi trilogy + Apollo's first game. Ignore everything else.

Investigations and GAA are pretty good though.

You can ask the same thing for the zoomers that started with the trashfire AA4 or the blog fagging retard some posts above you that started with 5. In any case, either this duology or the original trilogy is a good enough intro.

OP, dsregarding any fujo or faggot that recommends you to play Apollo justice. Their brain isn't qualified to make judgements for anyone.

I'm glad to see someone else enjoyed Investigations 1. I liked it more than all of the modern trilogy games and GAA1 so I'm really confused as to why it's always rated so low.

It's not the strongest case-wise.
>Visitor is a serviceable tutorial
>Airlines is fine
>Kidnapped is bad
>Reminiscence is excellent
>Ablaze is great
I think that's why people don't care for it.

They're literally all good in their own rights. But start with the original trilogy so that you can get familiar with the characters.

My favorites will always be the 3DS ones though, perfect blend of modern and old-school

>>Kidnapped is bad
Funny, kidnapped was actually my second favorite after reminiscence. Ablaze is great, but I wish the final two hours were trimmed a bit.

Nonsense. The GAA games have nothing to share with the OG trilogy. And the MC in the GAA was born first.
>but muh reddit references
No.

>>but muh reddit references
????
The GAA games hardly reference the other games at all.

I think there is the Phoenix brand in the omnibus in case G1-3 for example. You are right that there are hardly any references to older games in GAA so the argument of those retards made about learning/being familiar with the characters to play OG triligy first is downright stupid.

Yeah, absolutely great

It works perfectly fine on it's own, and it's indeed one of the best entries in the series (counting both games as one, which would also make it the longest), but I would still advice playing the original Trilogy first, at least the first game. Besides, the game may not be blatant with it's fan service for long time fans, but it does hit when you catch the references.

>sold 500k copies
this is on par with aa1 right? gaa3 when?

>>Ablaze is great
eeeeeh. It starts out great and then doesn't know when to reach an ending

>I vivaciously clapped at the tiniest amount of references
American moment yikes

>Turnabout Big Top
No No No No No Don't play the Original Trilogy, you've picked a good place to start OP.

Not a good place to start, but the game is good. Get the Trilogy first, that's on switch.

Absolutely. The cases are really bare bones because of the time period

For all people gripe about third case syndrome, at least the 3DS games never had it.

Aha! Aha! Aha! Aha! Aha! Aha! Aha! Aha!

The newer versions let you skip cases. You have no excuse

Big Top was fine.

>skip cases
then you didn't beat the game. You miss important lore and character introductions if you skip the case

>Big Top was fine
In West Clownadelphia, Born and

2 as a whole definitely suffers the most from a memey localization. It's pretty jarring coming back to it after playing through the rest of the series because it almost feels like a fan translation at times.

Down by the big top I spent most of my days

>you can skip entire games but not cases
what are you talking about?

I dont know how anyone can hate 2-3

A case in a fucking circus.

I can see why circus folk could get on people's nerve but
The mantle on the statue was fucking retarded and you know it.

Godots entire plan was retarded and 3-5 is still the best case of the trilogy

because GAA has nothing to do with AA but if you're going to play AA then you better not skip a case

so you're saying GAA are the only AA games worth playing?

because it doesn't even have a real murderer and the girl literally doesn't give a fuck about anything and is more retarded than any other character in the series and there are some stupid characters.

1 is shit
2 is great

By all rights, Acro is a murderer.

No AA is worth playing except 2-3 but you have to play 2-3 if you want to say you beat the game.

JFA does have the best Cross Examination theme in the series though

You didn't beat the game zoomer

yeah but not really

>t. a legit retard failing to make a normal post

It's good, but there's better.

2-3 was actually in my top 5 for a long time. It's dropped down to a "good" now that I've beaten the rest of the series, but it's still my favorite case in JFA.

I only played AA1 years ago and I loved GAA.

2-4 is the only great case in JFA
2-1 and 2-2 are ok.
2-3 is the worst of the original trilogy only 4-3 is worse in the series.

The introduction to the real culprit is lame, and while I like the circus cast, some parts of the investigation segment drags on worse than the one in case 1-5.

Any faggot that praises 1-5 but hates the circus case should be gassed.

I'd probably like 2-4 more now that I've beaten AAI2. I didn't like De Killer much in 2-4, but he's a fantastic addition in AAI2.
