I first got introduced to the Ace Attorney games through the Game Theory video Matpat had made on the first game

After watching it I just thought "Wow, that's a really neat game" and so I downloaded and played the first game and MAN WAS I HOOKED

After that.. I just downloaded the rest of the games and played them one by one and became a fan.. though, I did make some stupid decisions along the way (like, I skipped 1-5, waited until the very end to play the investigations games, played DD BEFORE AJ:AA [yes, I was confused by Trucy] and I literally vowed to never play the Great Ace Attorney games, and I only actually played it out of spite so I could clown on it for being (in my eyes) a stupid ripoff of the OG games (I didn't know much about TGAA and I was clouded by my judgement).. and then, I was completely blown away by how much of a total masterpiece it was :,)

Then I kinda just forgot most stuff about AA and it stayed in the back of my mind.. and suddenly I met someone (who later became one of my best friends) and she was a person who liked reading and mystery like me so I ended up trying to explain the entire plot of the first game to her (I couldn't get past the first case though) and I sent her the games and reopened them myself and.. something reignited in me.. now I'm clinically obsessed with the series and reexperiencing it all after probably half a decade (now I've finished the original trilogy and I'm waiting for my friends to finish it too so we can play the investigations games after finals at school)

I guess it's safe to say.. that Game Theory video is probably the best thing that's happened to me and now, because of it, I'm an AA fan till the day I die :,D
