FINISHED! Case 5 is a doozy, probably the longest case in the series. It also hit mostly all the right notes for me, with a few things I predicted (like any good mystery), and a couple shocking twists (like any good mystery).
Case rankings! 5 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 1. Like my favorite AA game, T&T, all the cases were at least good.
In fact, SOJ exceeded my expectations and is actually now one of my favorite games in the series. Here's my list:
8. Ace Attorney Investigations (ehh, pretty dull. I didn't finish the last story) 7. Layton vs Phoenix (that endinnnnng) 6. Apollo Justice (fun but a bit lacking) 5. Justice for All (two iffy cases, two great ones) 4. Dual Destinies (a solid return to form, great DLC story) 3. Ace Attorney (the classic original, does a lot of things correctly out of the gate) 2. Spirit of Justice (a bunch of strong cases and a lonnnng story with high stakes) 1. Trials & Tribulations (still the king! Amazing finale and build-up)
All in all, SOJ is currently my GOTY. Let's see if DQ7 can top it! |

Case 5 complete! Wow, that was great. One of the best in the series, for sure. The same can be said about Spirit of Justice as a whole, I think.
Too many thoughts flying around in my head to sum it all up, but a few things that bubble up...
-- How long has it been since Gumshoe was acknowledged? I'd almost completely forgotten about him until I presented evidence to Phoenix's "assistant" in case 5, and there was at least a tease...
-- If Phoenix Wright / Justice for All / Trials & Tribulations was the Phoenix Wright Trilogy, could Apollo Justice / Dual Destinies / Spirit of Justice be acknowledged as the Apollo Justice Trilogy? The middle one's a stretch, but the first and third are very heavy on that character, in a way we never really saw of any character in the first three games.
-- With that in mind, what is the future for Justice Law Office and the kingdom of Khura'in in general? Spinoff series? Slip in a case there every so often, maybe once a game? I really like how the Divination Seance turned out, more so than any other gimmick in the series, so I'm hoping we haven't seen the last of it...
-- Nahyuta is still the worst prosecutor. Sorry, Yuty. It's true. |
