Review of "Phoenix Wright. Ace Attorney": Who would have thought: speaking color pictures convey the tension of the situation so very well. Nails are bitten and tears come rolling down. The reason is the perfect artistic compilation of the project. Moreover, the static nature of the game graphics and plenty of repeated animation in no way affects the perception of the game. Bright emotions so very well convey the atmosphere of events. And the masterful design of the characters simply overshadows the remaining deficiencies. The "eternal" student, cop-loser, medium ... I do not often come across such unusual characters.
The cyclical nature of the Ace Attorney game process does not get boring. The tangled plot uplifts the curiosity and dialogues further enhance it. They are generously peppered with jokes and some suggest themselves to be quoted in citations. Spoken words just underline the characters. The emotional speeches of the prosecutor significantly vary from the aggressive intonations of the local magnates. And the French accent of the "slightly" feminine chef makes his speech truly unbearable. But this comic character has turned out to be excellent.
In general, humor is all right in Capcom . This is also reflected in its direction. The classic pair – stylus and touch screen - has not gone. But there are exotic ways of manipulation. The witness is lying and if you have the proof of this? Shout into the console microphone “Objection!” - And the villain gets his due.
All the above-specified is not exclusive to Trials and Tribulations. The trilogy with the participation of Phoenix Wright was created according to integrated patterns. Differences in game operations between them are minimal. The second part of the series uses the idea of psychological locks and a new storyline. “Trials and Tribulations” copies its ancestor in all things - except for the plot, of course.
The history of “Trials and Tribulations”, perhaps, is the most powerful in the entire series. The third part makes a spectacular point in the history of Phoenix Wright. Brilliantly-designed crimes contain a lot of loopholes and talented scenario findings. But the most important discovery – a new prosecutor Godot. This coffee maniac loves real "male" emotions and metaphors, attributed to a favorite drink. He also has the objects of hatred. For example, Phoenix Wright. But where did this hatred come from? And who is this mysterious masked man? The mystery opens up in the final. In the meantime, one thing is clear: the more formidable opponent to Wright is still not there.
Diagnosis:
Phoenix Wright's career path comes to a natural end. Trials and Tribulations – the third and last part of adventures of a brilliant lawyer. The new face in the series is on its way, but in the meantime - welcome to the unexpected ending. The cases were thoughtful and deeper and the new prosecutor has conquered his manic passion for coffee. Alas, recent court trials do not differ cardinally from the previous trials. Capcom has decided to stock-up all innovations for continuation. |
