Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies


Hello everyone <3


It's been a little while because I've been so busy with extra hours at work recently, but I'm back at college Tuesday which means I can get back to routines. ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

I did however manage to Finnish Dual destinies (ノ^o^)ノ and honestly I believe it to be the best in the series that I've played so far! (I really wanna to get Apollo justice, I'm just waiting for the right price)


If you have not heard of  the Ace Attorney series before basically it's a series of games in which you are a lawyer and have to clear your clients of a guilty verdict. More often than not the cases are very close shaves that have intelligent turnabouts which the player does not expect. The games play like a visual model where you have two modes to each story, the 'investigation' mode; where you look around the crime scene to gather evidence, and the 'courtroom' where you listen to the case facts evolve, question witnesses and present evidence.

What was so good about it:

1.The characters:

I'm not even talking about the main ones here but even the side characters are an absolute pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. My favorite has to be Robin Newman (below) They all have their own personalities that can sometimes clash with the Wright team but more often than not it results in hilarious remarks. You know if I was one of those people I would call it 'banter' 


2. Story Arcs:

All the stories in Dual destinies are linked rather than stand alone like the earlier games which means you get to really delve into each characters story, some of the story lines were also the best that I've played. My favorite case was one that took place in a law school as the murder was incredibly intelligent. (ノ≧∀≦)ノ

3. Saving at any point:

The past ace attorney games you would have to wait till a whole court/investigation session to save the game that could be anywhere between 0.5-2 hours as I was playing this mostly on the go to work I was very thankful to be able to stop and start the game. 
( it's especially good as if you present the wrong evidence instead of getting a penalty you can just turn off and try another item. hehehe (◣_◢))


What was bad about Ace Attorney: 

1, it leaves you with so many feels 

Happy/sad/empty/confused/EVERYTHING

Thank you ^^
