#plvspw game

[littlestuffstohide]

I will never not love Phoenix bitching inside his head throughout this game. I didn't give this game the attention it deserved. Now I'm doing it, I think it's a shame a lot of people don't do any reference to this game.

Lmaoooo. Hilariously enough, I never knew Professor Layton was a game based on Phoenix Wright. Hence, the finger pointing. I just love the game dissing on Phoenix and Phoenix juuuuust complaining about it. Ahahahaha.

From cross examining a parrot and now Phoenix cross-examining a parrot that's REALLY GIVING TESTIMONY. Thisssss is goldeeeen!

Oh Maya. Your humor is peak one of my highlights. Ahahahaha. We can blame Maya as one of the bad influence on Phoenix's dad humor years later.

Gotta find it funny that for anyone's spoiler - gender is being asked but makes sense due to the accusation.

Alsooo, it's just ridiculous goofy and funny that the golden statue Layton is lurking in this court case from start to finish. There's the missing hand, the endless reference to Layton being a statue and juuust Luke and Espella just turning the golden statue Layton as Phoenix makes the turnabout.

It's awful on the premise that Layton turned to gold due to a spell but how they turned this and juuust the ridiculous humor is just amazing.

hey, don't be sad..... over 2400 puzzles in all Professor Layton games and still almost 1200 if you don't count downloadable ones okay?

I don't see this talked about a lot but I really like the Professors tendency to bide his time and wait. He's perfectly fine seeming oblivious to get more information out of people, and to bullshit his way through a situation and act like he's totally meant to be there. When he's suspicious of someone, instead of immediately confronting them like so many protagonists do, he pretends he's unaware of any illdoing until there's a time where he's able to ensure his safety and that the person will be locked up or face consequences. Idk, I think it's cool. He lives by the bit sjdvsibdvs.

AA4 spoilers plus im also ignoring aa5/6 canon for this little thought i had

So I’m deathly curious about what Shu Takumi’s original plans for Apollo’s backstory were. All we know is that his father is dead from a performance incident and his mother was presumed dead a few years later. But not only that, it seems like although Zak knew she had another child, we also know that Apollo wasn’t with the Gramaryes when Trucy was born. So… what the fuck happened to Apollo 😭 bc I’m thinking like the only logical thing is that Apollo was ALSO in some freak accident and Magnifi once again hid the body but it turned out he was okay. Bc Magnifi was for sure behind Thalassa’s disappearance and reappearance in another country, so something similar must have happened to Apollo?? Did he end up at an orphanage??

I feel like Apollo is the kinda guy to have the craziest environment that he was raised in but he turned out so normal. Like I wouldn’t be surprised if a circus troupe adopted him or smth hfjdwkfhj and he would casually bring up in convos how his adopted mom can swallow knives or smth

From what I know from bits and pieces is that 5/6 rewrote his backstory to have Jove the musician as his dad but that honestly doesn’t make much sense to me. If Apollo had prominent famous musician parents then they would have had that influence onto him in some way, even if it’s only learning a little guitar when he grew up or having a decent ear for music and music theory. But in 4-3 he states that “he should’ve learned to play the guitar” because “there’s not much romance in Chords of Steel.” Not only that but someone with a musical background like that would at least know who the hottest band is at the time 💀 like I loveee musician!Apollo so much but I highly doubt aa4 Apollo has any major connection to music until he met Klavier

thinking about plvspw again and how (mainly aa fans) react to the final twist. like both of them are classified as "mystery" games but layton really isn't and i feel like that gives players the wrong expectation. in aa the cases are often super whacky, but you're still supposed to figure stuff out yourself and be able to come to a conclusion. and that is just plain not possible with layton.

layton is not a "mystery" in the traditional sense; it is an "anti-fantasy" (to speak in umineko terms for a bit) and everyone who expects a mystery solution will be sorely disappointed.

still i'd recommend every aa fan to play it if they haven't, it's still rlly good. just don't expect anything but a layton-esque ending.

uhhh anyone got any more sarcastic layton quotes. im running out

Looking for help with creating puzzles and more for my Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright rewrite fanfic called the Rewritten Labyrinth

Hey all! So some of you know I am creating a rewrite of Professor Layton vs Phoenix wright. The original while a huge banger in some aspects fell flat, mostly the ending. I am hoping to add my own unique twist to the story while keeping what made the original so good. I definitely took some inspiration from other PL vs PW fanfics and stories to create it.

It definitely won’t be perfect but I hope you will all enjoy!

Most of the pre work for the fic is almost done.

But I am looking for some help creating some aspects of the fic. Mostly the puzzles. I’m somewhat good and making a few but I could use help creating and designing some brain teasers and probably parts of the case sections as well. I do have a few concepts

You don’t have to volunteer your time. just help me find some resources to help me create some stuff.

I might also look for other artists besides my self to create some artwork for this project to make it better or even a co-writer in the future but right now I just need help with the puzzles.

Plz reblog with something or say something on this post if you have anything and are interested in helping me flesh out some puzzles.

it makes me sad to think about how all the other games are on modern consoles now while professor layton vs phoenix wright never even got a mobile port like the rest of them did. since the 3ds eshop's closing last year, the only ways to play the game are through an emulator or spending like $100 buying a physical copy on ebay. i luckily was able to buy it before the eshop closed. idk i just really hope this game gets ported someday cause its really such a shame that a lot of fans dont seem to know about it

Darklaw // Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (2012)

[journalsouppe]

Ever since I accidentally picked up and played DGS, I knew I needed to play PLVSPW. I decided to alternate playing ace attorney games with professor layton games until I finished the main trilogies for both and could finally play plvspw, and it was so worth the wait. I love this game so much it is everything I could have hoped and more, so so so much more. Highly recommend to honestly anyone!!!

Summary

This game is everything I hoped it would be. yes it's a Professor Layton crossover, but it also has the charm of DGS x Princess tutu x tunic. The ending was very layton-esque, along with all the reveals. I truly had such an amazing time playing this game. I was initially introduced to this because I heard that DGS was inspired by it, so it was my mission to play both aa and pl's original trilogies before playing. And I am so glad I did bc the wait was so worth it. You can absolutely see the influence this game and professor layton had on Shu Takumi. There's so much passion and creativity between plvspw an dgs that makes playing them all the more enjoyable. I loved how all the main characters interacted with each other, I especially loved how hershel and phoenix swapped assistants. The new characters were also so fun. Espella, Barnham, Darklaw, the story-teller, they were all so unique and enjoyable to interact with. The animation was stellar. This 3D style really works for both PL and AA and im so glad both series took inspiration from it. The music and art was phenomenal, this game honestly should win awards if it hasn't already done so. I also love how any character pulled into an aa game will have their gay moments: phoenix x hershel and espella x eve especially. I can't wait to make art or even write for this game, I will definitely add scenes from this to my ballet au ^^! What a phenomenal game, what a fun premise with the most convoluted layton-esque ending. It was so perfectly I highly recommend!!
