Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Even more details about The Great Ace Attorney have come out of this week’s Famitsu. You can find the full set of information below.
– Ryuunosuke begins the game in Japan
– He’s a college student involved with a certain case that puts him on the path to becoming a formal attorney
– To better study law, he transfers to England along with Mikotoba, where he meets Holmes
– Much of the story is set in London
– Japan is the setting for Ryuunosuke’s first case
– Court and investigation proceed in mostly the same way
– During investigations, Ryuunosuke and Holmes will use joint reasoning
– With joint reasoning, you must point out any inconsistencies in Holmes’ rapid-fire reasoning
– Ex: Holmes accusing a witness of being a certain revolutionary
– Settled on 3D to allow for a very dynamic camera to match Holmes’ high-speed thinking
– Takumi jokes that Holmes really set the stage for the game
– Takumi has a deep love of the Sherlock Holmes stories, so he’s trying to respect the character
– Holmes is described as falling somewhere between the “storybook Holmes” and a “real Holmes”
– He’s a man who focuses maybe too much on his investigations, but isn’t a bad person at heart
– Ryuunosuke and Holmes’ meeting is a key point of the game
