Hey bud. Tell me your favorite thing about twewy or ace attorney. Dealer's choice. :)
FDJHSBKNGFD mal ily-
okay so fun fact actually, both twewy and aa fall into the category of 10/10 games for me. like, i like a lot of games, but very few do i actually think are perfect. both twewy and aa i think are absolute masterpieces. and playing through the aa trilogy again and twewy final remix absolutely solidifies that for me. they’re super different games ofc, but oddly the reasons i like them so much are pretty similar, so i can kinda cheat and answer both at the same time-
the soundtrack and sound design in general. both are absolutely iconic for their soundscapes. you KNOW what twewy sounds like. you KNOW what ace attorney sounds like. i hate when games sound the same as each other, so when the audio stands out that’s a huge positive for me. plus, absolute bops on the osts of both. no one is immune to “twister” or “objection”, we simply are not!
this isn’t so much a “favorite” but i really do have to commend the localization teams for both. both had a LOT of japanese specific humor that i know HAD to be a gigantic pain in the ass to try and get right in localization, and a lot of the changes to make the ideas more accessible to western audiences are great imo. you’ll never get a perfect translation or localization of anything just bc of how language works, but aa 100% keeps the spirit of the original, and twewy is like a damn masterclass in how to make it work.
the characters. i mean obviously both are very character focused kinds of games, so ofc you’d expect the characters to be memorable and enjoyable. but the characters REALLY do stick with me. and what’s more is both have antagonists/rivals that are almost MORE enjoyable than any other character in the games. i won’t go into too much detail bc some of that stuff is major spoilers, but yeah reapers and prosecutors my beloveds <3 but at the same time neither falls into “annoying protagonist” territory, which...idk i feel like it’s super rare to find media where the protagonist and antagonist are equally enjoyable, so i really appreciate both of them for that.
also both have made me legitimately cry over certain story beats so like i know something is good if it does that to me! aa: justice for all really fuckin punched me in the face when i played it for the first time, and the entirety of week 3 in twewy is just me losing my mind, so like very good times all around.
