Tomorrow, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney will finally be available in North America. Are you as excited as I am?
Here’s the launch trailer, to get you in the right mood:
If you’re like me, you’ve heard all sorts of reviews by now, from people who loved it, to those who hated it, to those who thought it was fine and missed its potential. Normal enough for reviews–but responses are just as mixed when you ask which style it favors more.
Is Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney an Ace Attorney game with Professor Layton elements?
Is it a Professor Layton game with Ace Attorney elements?
Is it a 50/50 split between the two franchises?
We’ll all know soon enough, and you can bet this is one I’ll review!
To tide you over until tomorrow, here are the translated answers from a new interview with the producer of Dual Destinies.
I actually haven’t read reviews.
Why bother?
I’m getting it anyway regardless.
It’s a combination of wanting to know what other people think (even though I’ll play it regardless) and just being interested in any content that won’t spoil it. XD
Similar to why I watch the trailers–to get a taste of the awesomeness to come!
You can’t trust that reviews won’t spoil it.
That’s the same risk I take when watching trailers.
Warning: if you ever decide to play the Professor Layton games, don’t watch the trailers. The story trailer for Azran Legacy spoiled the majority of the ending plot twists if you paid close enough attention.
