Well, I finally started Apollo Justice and finished the first case. One of my biggest complaints with the series is it is needlessly verbosive AND made worse by having to wait for the scrolling text. Ridiculous.
This problem is so annoying... I am finding myself yelling at the screen for the bullshit to shut up. The characters can be clueless idiots, repeating what others have said, forgetting what was just told them, and needing six minutes of exposition to recap what has been made clear COUNTLESS TIMES. And the judge is terrible... six screens of "this is important" and "all rides on this" and "choose wisely" before you finally can respond. Horrid elements... I hope they at least cut back on this in future games, as I'm close to stabbing the damn stylus through the screen. And watching this damn 'music video' and the replays of past conversations over and over again just sucks.
And the blue text in parantheses, is this him talking to himself any different from all the rest of the obvious crap said? Or is it him thinking to himself, and everyone else are mind-readers? Absurd.
