Irony

IMO, I think it's the weakest game in the Ace Attorney series for multiple reasons (e.g. The ending of the game is kinda weak compared to the rest of the game, some of the characters aren't that memorable, and there are a few other things.) I'm not saying that it's a bad game (some of the writing in the game is absolutely amazing) but I just think that the main series and Ace Attorney Investigations I and II are better games.

Actually, it wasn't even because of him saying that T&T was too long. I didn't even notice that post actually. The only reason I posted was because Ms. Bunch wanted some constructive criticism, and so I decided to try and offer my 2 cents on the issue. I apologise if it seemed reactionary, and if it wasn't constructive at all.

One word: Immunize.

Time for some badly worded constructive points on the series: One of the issues that I have with Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney & Dual Destinies kinda relates to Phoenix actually. Don't get me wrong, I love Phoenix in the original trilogy.... But in Apollo Justice and Dual Destinies he kinda feels shoehorned in, especially in Apollo Justice. I felt like his story was over after Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations, and the only reason he's in Apollo Justice and Dual Destinies is due to Fanservice. But I felt that this led to other issues. In Apollo Justice, for example, the title character wasn't as developed as he should have been because Phoenix practically stole the plot from him. I admit, it was slightly better in Dual Destinies- they did give Athena and Apollo the screen time they deserved, and Phoenix admittedly did not entirely steal the plot from the rest of the cast. However, some of the plot points from Apollo Justice still haven't been resolved, and I don't think that they will be for as long as Phoenix is the main character. Not only that, I still think that the Capcom writers are overusing the guy and it's getting to the point where I am actively starting to hate Phoenix because as a playable character he feels really dull now. Literally, Capcom could make a game just starring Apollo and Athena solving cases without Phoenix and I would actually be happy. Give them a chance to develop as characters. Let Phoenix be a Lawyer somewhere else. Anyways- In a nutshell: Phoenix's story felt finished after the third game, and the Capcom writers are beating a dead horse every time they include him as a main character. They should just let him do Lawyer things off screen and let some of the other characters be developed more. P.S. When it comes to Ace Attorney 6- I'm torn. I will probably explain why later, but I don't have the time to do so now.

I didn't realise Chrono Trigger DS was so rare nowadays... I got my copy a couple of years back for something like £8? And I got the box and the manual with it...

I've also read about the Ice Block strategy to shave off half of her HP, which I'm also going to abuse at my leisure~! :D if she has 23000~ ish HP- if I take off half of her HP, I'll only have to take off 11500~ ish HP... Which I can do. :)

Trust me, I know how amazing Flavio's and Bertrand's Force Boosts/Breaks are. :) I'm not kidding, Flavio managed to attack one enemy 7 times when I Force boosted him. :D And Perfect Defence has saved my hide multiple times. I will also probably use Chloe's Force Boost/Break if I need to. :D Blade's Force Boost is a-maze-ing and I'll save the Force Break for the end of the fight. And I'll spam Prevent Order, and maybe Force Boost Arianna as well when she does it? :)

When it comes to prepping, I'm the Queen of it... I easily spent 6 months prepping for the final boss of Etrian Odyssey IV, and was surprised by how easy the fight was. XD Though the RNG will probably hate me... :( I think I have 4-5 Amritas, plus I kept Arianna as a Soverign, so I can use her Force Break skill in a pinch.

Etrian Odyssey Untold 2: The Fafnir Knight came to Europe a month ago, and it's the only 2016 game I've played. It's literally amazing. :)

Well, I'm screwed. XD I am just gonna go FOE killing, finish off the last quest I've got (apart from the Chess one... Which I cannot remember the name of) and then just go ingredient grinding. :) I'll probably be at level 40-1 by the time I finish all of that, right? :) I had the Dark Hunter and Wufan.. Still lost the Hollow Queen Fight the first time I tried it. :( Well, I guess you're gonna have to put up with me complaining about the delay for the next two years then...

Thank you! I'm probably gonna be at level 40-1 when I tackle that boss? I'm currently at level 39. I'm not looking forward to it...

So, now that the first batch of SNES Games are available on the New Nintendo 3DS eshop, which games would you like to see next? Personally, I'd love to see Final Fantasy VI, Fire Emblem IV and Fire Emblem V.

I'm level 38 in Story Mode Standard Difficulty. Guild Esbat- yay or nay? Edit: I decided to do it Anyways. Succeeded on my 2nd attempt on the 16th turn. It was kinda easy??

The new information looks good- I think I have my main Guild Leader for my EOV Guild! :D A female Necromancer named Azriel! :D (FYI- I have main Guild Leaders for each of my Etrian Odyssey Guilds. For EOIV, it was Blade for my first Guild and Kader for my second. Both were Landsharks. For EOU, my main Guild Leader was Jalen the Medic. For my main EOUII Guild, it's Haya the Ronin. And now Azriel the Necromancer.)

The music is incredibly important to me. Some of my favourite games also have my favourite soundtracks. ... Especially Radiant Historia. Even though the soundtrack is 24 songs long, those songs are so powerful and beautiful. Mechanical Kingdom, for instance, takes me back to Alistel, and I swear I can hear the hustle and bustle of the city. As well as this, When the Wind and Feathers Return ALWAYS makes me cry.

Yes. So much yes. I love this game! :D

It would have been awesome, but yeah it didn't happen. However, I still can't believe that we're getting this game on the same day as America (I'm from Europe btw) and before Japan. It's crazy. It's like a dream come true. :D In all seriousness, the trailer looks so good. I'm enjoying the English VA. Come on June, I'm waiting for you! :D

I'm curious about Q. Like, He's the only character Crash Keys DIDN'T LEAK, plus there's that mask that he's wearing. He's got to be important, but why? Maybe he's a Left Clone (but then everyone says the same thing about Carlos), he might be working with Clover & Alice.... HE COULD BE QUARK, or related to Quark in some way. Whoever Q is, I'm keeping my eye out on him. Also- there's 4 females in the main cast this time, not three...Interesting. That would be pretty awesome if they did that! :D It's two days to go until we possibly find out! :)

Dat fan art.... :D I should do some. :)

OOOOH YEAH BABY! :D *coughs* I'm hyped for this!!! :)

I'm seconding/thirding this, as well as Golden Sun. I'm also going to add Etrian Odyssey to the list: You know a game is obscure when even WORKERS AT SPECIALIST GAMING STORES IN YOUR COUNTRY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT! (On the plus side, I might have persuaded one of them to give it a go. Hopefully?)

Ikr? The Localisation team missed out on a golden opportunity, it's logical, plus I did spend a couple of hours thinking that Therica As healed Ailments, and Therica Bs healed Bindings. :/

Also: Why do Therica As heal Bindings and Therica Bs heal ailments? Surely it should be that Therica As heal Ailments and Therica Bs heal bindings? Anyways- I'm gonna buy 5 more Therica As, get all my other healing items and then go in. (I also put an Unbind Grimore on Arianna, just to let you know.) Edit: Arachne's dead. Took 2 days of planning and 15 minutes of battling, but she's down! ... Thank goodness.

I know that Arachne is weak to fire, and that there's a bit in her room that, if you burn it, can take off half her HP. I also knows that she likes binding the party. Anything else I need to know? Or is my team good enough to go in there and slaughter her?

Two EO related things: 1) GUESS WHO FINALLY OWNS ETRIAN ODYSSEY UNTOLD 2: THE FAFNIR KNIGHT AND THEREFORE DOES NOT NEED TO COMPLAIN ABOUT WAITING FOR SAID GAME ANY LONGER? ... Sorry about that... So, yeah- I got the game on the Tuesday after it came out in Europe. I'm really enjoying it's! The wait was totally worth it! I'm playing Story Mode ATM, though I have two Classic Mode Guilds ready and waiting to go. I'm on the 3rd Stratum (which is really pretty) but I need to defeat Arachne before I progress. I'm at level 29 for all characters bar Bertrand (who's level 27 because I rested him). Any advice that I need for the fight? 2) ETRIAN ODYSSEY V NEWS AT LAST! And I want this game already! The races system sounds pretty cool, and the character creation system is certainly better than ever. Haven't seen any gameplay yet, but I am trying to find it! :)
