transphobic haters in my mentions all day like "actually the pope lives in that little tiny country where you can't buy helldivers on steam" i forget what it's called but if you look up helldivers on steamdb you'll find it

i know he lives in the. fucking. i KNOW

@steffo alright, at least it's not just me haha

i'm trying to write a post and i realize that i don't know how to talk about sections of a case. i want to say "the day 2 investigation", which is technically correct, but only in the same sense that the first day of court is day 2. in my head the chapter structure is "day 1 investigation, day 1 trial, day 2 investigation, day 2 trial..." which is. not true. in general, you investigate in the afternoon and go to trial in the morning

i wonder how big a deal nick is in-universe. like he's the hotshot newbie who always uncovers the truth, but it almost seems like only the bad guys know how good he is. he's the attorney shelly dekiller turns to for matt engarde's defense, and he's the attorney furio tigre impersonates, but i can't think of any time an innocent defendant sought him out unless they already knew him personally

like, he only represents ron delite because desiree saw a news story about the urn -> information about maya -> rumours about the law office she hangs out at

god damn it, this is like the one time in the series where a mandatory flag is set by talking to your assistant at the office

i feel like i get stuck right at the start of this case every time i play it. like there's just something i didn't examine, so the "finished investigation" flag isn't set and atmey isn't at his office

here we go

which is not fair to them but

the blue prince approach of "we understand why these accessibility features are important, we just didn't do them yet" annoys me on an emotional level way more than not doing it and saying nothing

you know it is actually sad that mia thinks "I'm no one's grandma yet!"

"yet"... did she want to have kids

i thought the stolen turnabout was 2-2... like i thought it was thematically important that it came before 2-4 haha

i like when they do stuff like this

the victim died at approximately 3pm. and the building lost power at approximely 3pm. that's all true

but the victim's watch is stopped at 3:05pm, and the building lost power at 2:55pm. you gotta look

god i love that mia doesn't have to say a word. payne is trying to defend dahlia but she just glares at him so hard he crumples like wet cardboard

"...Madame Fey."

"Madame?! (I'm no one's grandma yet!)"

this is an honourifics joke that didn't survive localization, right? it seems like they should have just written a new joke that does work

where's this energy the rest of the time?

[loud cheering]

it just sucks that i'm going to tear down my own guy and then winston fucking payne is going to say "Hee hee hee, what a blunder, Miss Fey... Like a fly in my web, you've fallen into my trap" or some shit

it's not really a trap you just made me do it

@steffo wait does he? it's been a minute lmao

it's for gameplay. i do get it
