Address my arguments instead of speaking authoritatively about what everyone else does and doesn't care about, or don't address them at all. That said whatever, it's not a big deal. I think it's pretty obvious that Lang is a poor judge of character and that this is directly supported by the game. If your point is that you disagree that's okay. I was just trying to find a narrative justification for a bad plot twist in AAI2, we can go back to discussing the bad plot twist in a vacuum.

And because Zheng Fa is never seen and only rarely mentioned, we don't even get a good study in the ways that he's a worse president anyway. (Apparently he's still good enough to win re-election.) Presidents have difficult jobs and are generally complicated figures. With Zheng Fa they had an opportunity to have such a figure, but they did not take it - instead we get one character who is little more than a Platonic ideal and one character who makes no sense. --- The RPG Duelling League: www.rpgdl.com An unparalleled source for RPG information and discussion <cite>NeoElfboy posted [p:899745701] in Ace Attorn...
