misailury | Big Bang post OH MY

Hi! I dunno if this is gonna be the final team (and if not, best of luck to you wherever you end up), but I figured I ought to say hello, especially since I haven't been around much in public. I am here! And I've been writing. I even made a Googledoc! Right now I have a draft of the first chapter done, and I even attempted an outline! That's not my usual MO so who knows if it'll stick, but it's exciting to me.

Maybe I should introduce myself a little? I go by Misailury (a name that comes from my dislike of cats, as I figured that was one of my more unique traits amongst the internet populace at large), I'm kinda old in internet years, and I currently live in Japan. I'm on the island of Kyushu, though sadly nowhere near Fukuoka, which is my favorite city in the country, even moreso than Tokyo. Unfortunately for me, the big Ace Attorney doujinshi con is in Tokyo and every year I fail to make it there... but hey, maybe next year will be my year!

I've never done anything like this before and I have no idea if my weird rarepairs are anyone's jam but mine, but I hope this can be a fun thing. :>

I'm really excited to beta for you. Your story sounds interesting and I'm looking forward to reading it. I have not played AAI2 but I'm not really adverse to the spoilers because I don't think I'd play it if it were released in English. I personally think Simon doesn't get enough use outside of Cykes/Quill or Black/Bright pairings. I'm hyped to see something different.

I'm on EST like akatonbo so I might not be available for chatting when you're up but feel free to message me here or email me (caesiumdressing@gmail.com) any time. I'll try to get back to you as quickly as I can.

Now, a question, would you like me to comment and edit on the google doc or would you like me to download it, edit/comment and then send it back?

I totally agree on wanting more Simon pairings! I'm thirsty for rarepairs in general, but I feel like Simon Blackquill is particularly interesting and versatile because he could theoretically know more AA characters than any other character in the franchise.

I can work with whichever way is preferable to you. I have the googledoc set so anybody can comment now.

I do worry a little bit about you not having played AAI2, not so much because of spoilers as I'm not sure how much sense the story will make, since a large part of the plot is centered in Blackquill being caught up in the aftermath of that game. Though if there's any way I can help with that, please let me know!

...Also I will try not to be a gross stan about it, but I'm too curious not to ask, why don't you want to play AAI2?

I'll do my best! I can maybe watch a lets play or something.

Honestly, AAI wasn't a bad game but I found myself not really enjoying it as much as the main series. The characters were great and the story was fun but the gameplay elements just weren't doing it for me. I finished it but by then end I was just begging it to be over because I wanted to know what happened but I didn't want to push myself to do the game parts any more. I don't think I'd bother playing 2 just because I didn't like the game part of the first one.

Fair enough! Though AAI2 did improve a lot on the formula and I felt like it was a lot less tedious than the original (I, too, hated Alba and his extraterritorial nonsense). But I also prefer the Investigations-style gameplay so maybe I can't totally speak to that aspect.

At any rate, I have a LP on hand if the mood so strikes you.

Oooo, I'm gonna watch that! If they really did improve the gameplay then maybe I'd give it a shot. And you hit the nail on the head, the Alba thing killed it dead for me.

The arguments are still pretty long, but they don't drag on forever and ever. The villains are also surprisingly well-developed for an AA game, which I think helps a lot. I personally found every last one of them a complete delight. But yeah, give it a watch. :> That'll probably tell you whether you want to avoid it better than I could.
