My professor layton thread!

[RucyL]

I am very hyped! I'll get it for sure, not the 20th of July, but when it comes out for 3DS. I was quite worried thinking it would be a dissappointing game, but, after all the information L-5 has released, I'm sure it won't.
The only things I am going to miss are Akira Tago's puzzles and the professor and Luke. :"(

I was thinking of picking up the series with this new entry - new protagonist seems like a good jumping on point.

I'd be surprised if it was as good as the Unwound Future which had nice antagonists (the ending part when Layton says that they're

Spoiler:

the victims of political propaganda for progress

was really nice) and was deeply connected to the MC's, though Azran Legacy had a really good twist about "Hershel" Layton.
Anyway the 2nd trilogy overall has better stories than the first because Curious Village and Diabolical Box were not that great.

Curious Village was a good way to start the series. Just like Last Sceptre was well formulated the introduce everyone.

Curious Village was a really simple one-off idea for a game with no long term plan in mind unlike Last Specter. It had barely any story to speak of.

Wahh... Here I am again, half a year later, and, most importantly, having played Layton's Mystery Journey! What can I say, liked a lot the game, I cried in the end like I usually do, but it's not as good as the old ones. That said, I think it's a very strong starting point for a new series, it reminded me of Curious Village in a lot of aspects. Kat is a great main character, Sherl is funny and it would be interesting to explore his story in sequels and Ernest is just lovely (although I do not agree with him having a different name in each language, half of the time I say Howerd or Noah).

So aparently, there's a new game and an anime in production, scheduled for next year... I can't wait to continue unraveling the mystery of this mysterious journey!!

"It's very simple, Luke my boy. Everybody's a robot."Obviously, of course, we were all suffering highly elaborate hallucinations. Except for that swordfight. I really am that awesome.
