Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies - Episode 11: Prosecutor May Cry
0In today's episode of the "Dual Destinies" playthrough, we finish the first day of investigating and start the first trial portion, where we meet Simon Blackquill, this game's rival prosecutor.
As I stated back in Episode 9's description, one thing that this game nailed out of the park was its rival prosecutor, Simon Blackquill: he has a great theme, good chemistry with the protagonists, and he does an amazing job at subverting expectations. I mean, when I heard that this game- the first M-Rated "Ace Attorney" title- was going to feature a convict prosecutor, I thought that the trials would be like Tigre's cross-examination in "Recipe for Turnabout", only with follow-through- especially after seeing Simon's intro cutscene. However, while Simon looks threatening and puts on a tough guy act, the worst he'll do is bombard you with snide remarks. Heck, Simon comes off as more as a troubled teen than a convict, with him actually taking on that role towards the end of a later case.
But Simon's character becomes even better when you realize that despite his best efforts to portray himself as this remorseless, coldhearted criminal, he's actually a big softie. For example, those black streaks under Simon's eyes are the result of him frequently crying during his seven years in jail and never wiping his eyes.
