Changes: Argument

Revision as of 20:23, 29 August 2014

Ace Attorney core series equivalent: Trial

Arguments are gameplay phases in Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth and Gyakuten Kenji 2. Miles Edgeworth confronts a suspect, person of interest, witness or rival investigator and undergoes a questioning process that is very similar to cross-examinations during trials in the core Ace Attorney series. Rival investigators generally put "arguments" forward, while witnesses submit "testimonies", but the difference is merely cosmetic. Edgeworth then has an opportunity to give a "rebuttal", in which he presses on certain statements or presents evidence contradicting the argument or testimony. Each testimony or argument consists of multiple statements, and on each one, Edgeworth can either press it for more information or present evidence to contradict it.

Incorrect inferences incur a penalty on the "truth gauge". If the penalty bar is depleted, the truth becomes irretrievable, and the game ends in defeat.
