So, finished Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies earlier today. And overall... I am very pleased with the purchase. The experience was not flawless; the annoying download-only purchase didn't win any points with me (though it wasn't the nightmare I was expecting from Nintendo's online service!) and Case 2 was a ridiculously over-complicated pit of madness even by the standards of the series. And, while I'm not sure this is a flaw since the sequel hooks are clear and there's no way Capcom is letting this series die, I would have enjoyed seeing a little more of the lingering threads from Apollo's game.
That said, new rookie attorney Athena Cykes is a load of fun, new prosecutor Simon Blackquill is mah boy, and 99% of the new characters were also very likable (Robin Newman in particular is damnably amazing, trust me). Add in some very clever mysteries and some very cool cameos from old favorites, and it's an experience I found to be not at all... objectionable.
