misunderstanding of my point on one of my post :/
#point was that people who argue that aa4 is more thematically off-base from Ace Attorney as a series than aa5 & 6 are#are ppl who just like to play Phoenix because of familiarity without much thought to his character and themes of AA#point was not ‘ppl who like 5&6 only like it because they can play Phoenix’#especially because the ppl i was talking about dont even necessarily like DD or SOJ they just argue they are more align with the series#and my point was that 5 & 6 do not write the themes of curruption as well (among other things) as the previous games#so if you argue that aa4 feels more ‘off’ from the series than 5&6 do: then you just like the comfort of Phoenix being in the blue suit#because aa4 was different than the trilogy yes but it carried the themes of the trilogy with it into a new era in a way that made sense#aa5 coming in and talking about ‘the dark age of law’ and aa6 having Phoenix say ‘where im from ppl are innocent until proven guilty’#is much more of a slap to the face to the trilogy than anything aa4 did#because these things deny and erase the fact that the trilogy was always about the system being currupt!!#the end of DD doesn’t fix that curruption it finds one bad guy and then has the characters say they fixed it and thats not how that works!!#aa4 doesn’t make the trilogy out to be the golden age of law;#it specifically highlights how that system is what lead to Trucy being abandoned and Phoenix losing all he worked towards#but I wasn’t saying there isn’t anything to like about 5 & 6 or that people only like them for Phoenix back im blue#you gotta not zoom in on one line and look at the rest of the things I said#never said 5 & 6 didn’t have characters that were interesting and charming
