As close to perfection as a video game can get.
While there's some awkwardness with the fan translation, it can't be helped. It's an impressive effort from a fan community. The cases are compelling and I especially loved the 3rd and 4th case. I found the last case to drag and not be all that interesting to solve. It's a damn shame this game never received an official release in English, and the Investigations duology would be greatly served getting a modern release like AA4-6 or The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles.
This game took me honestly way longer than it should have to finish. At first, I didn't care for it as much as the first Investigations, mainly because the first 2-3 cases seemed to drag on a bit and I didn't find them all that exciting or enjoyable, aside from seeing the bond between characters such as Kay+Edgeworth or Gumshoe and Edgeworth's bonds develop more.
However, that all changed when I got to case 4. This case truly was one of the best cases in the game, everything from its use of the investigation mechanic to the storyline. Case 4 and 5 will definitely be why I come back to this game in the future, because they both are so iconic and speak to the franchise's core messages of believing in yourself, finding the truth and true meaning of justice, and trust.
The latter half of the game was a treat, and I am glad I decided to play the Investigations spinoffs. I loved seeing Edgeworth shine, and I hope we can get more content featuring him as a main factor someday.

El mejor juego de la historia
A vast improvement over the first game with only one case that didn't really hold my attention much. Really well written and the fan translation is practically flawless. Definitely one of my favourite AA games.
this ones the best game in the whole series
I completed this game less than a month before the international rerelease/remaster/translation was announced. I love it so much but it is soooo loong. What the fuck is a Eustace Winner?!
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOO, ACE ATTORNEY INVESTIGATIONS COLLECTION.
And this will be localized for the first time eveeeeeeeerrrrrrr.

some pacing issues
this game is truly debeste
great experience from start to finish
Not the best ace attorney game in my opinion but still very good. It's just that its pacing in the middle chapters is kinda bad. Case 3 takes so long that you start not caring as much about the characters by the end. But all the new characters introduced here are phenomenal. Even the new judge, who starts off being extremely annoying, actually develops into a good character by the end.
Takeshi Yamazaki's magnum opus. Not quite up to snuff with Takumi's best, but lightyears better than most mystery writers.
Anyone taking stars away should only be doing so because it hasn't been ported. 😮💨 This game is exceptional.

Cinema. (Arrastado mas ainda cinema)
an absolute crime that we did not get this game officially, inarguably in the top 2 of the franchise and in my opinion it's the best the series has ever been. The most engaging throughline mystery in the entire franchise and one of the strongest core casts.

I played the fan translation. Very good game overall but fuck you Capcom for announcing the official localization right as I was finishing up the final case
