I think it is good and a classic, but I really do get sick of hearing the overwhelming praise for the final case, and the game as a whole, when it is so sloppily written.

I will be vague for spoiler reasons, but:
I think it is a poor critique to complain when things have an easy fix. People are people; they make mistakes, do unexpected things, and do not always do what they should, but this has limitations. It is hard to take Bridge to the Turnabout seriously when it would not have happened if Godot treated women like people. Worst of all, Godot walks out of the story rewarded and heroized for his actions. 

It is a hard game to enjoy when most of the cases are all building up towards a sour conclusion, but the game still has the charm of pre-AA5 Ace Attorney.
