Today I wanted to talk about detective video games. Follow Me: / kirotalks The Super Gaming Bros. - LA Noire PS4 Remaster / @sgblikestoplay Lacry - Phoenix Wright Trilogy / @lacry #gaming #danganronpa
I mean it was the 1940s. From pictures that I have seen of LA in the 1940s there's a tiny bit more traffic than in the game but the streets for the most part were mostly clear with minimal traffic.
Seems like more and more people are talking about it. Like I haven't played it but like three years ago or so I started seeing it being mentioned a lot more by various people on websites/forums and more RU-vid creators talk about it or mention it.
@@Gatorade69 It's definitely starting to gain a bit more steam than when it first came out, that's for sure. I played it for the first time about 9 years ago just before Danganronpa 2 came out and back then absolutely nobody knew what I was talking about 😂 It's great to see it finally gaining momentum and being recognised for the absolute banger of a franchise it is
If you're that happy about Danganronpa maybe give Spike Chunsoft's new game Master Detective Archives: Rain Code. May help give you itch that scratch in 2023
Recently, Danganronpa's spiritual successor launched and it's pretty great. It's even more wild than the Danganronpa trilogy, as much with its humor as it is with its story and murder cases. For anyone who may want to look for it, it's called Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE
I finally got around to wrapping that up and yeah, I enjoyed it (and think more people should play it). The cases are interesting and engaging and I like the characters
If you liked these here are some other great detective games: Return of the Obra Dinn Umineko: When They Cry The Case of the Golden Idol Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective Master Detective Archives: Rain Code Disco Elysium and The Wolf Among Us are great too if you count those as detective games.
Yeah the Wolf Among Us is a weird one. I have Disco Elysium so I'll check that one out as well. Rain Code is on my list to play at some point in the future. I've heard of Umineko but I'm not too familiar with the series. The Case of the Golden Idol is another one I've only heard bits and pieces about. Ghost Trick just got a remaster so that's an excuse to check that one out.
While I haven't bought the full game yet, juging by the demo, Ghost Trick is an amazing and quirky game. It's made by the creator of the Ace Attorney series and brings possession and time travel into a whodunnit story.

Just got into Ace Attorney recently and the whole experience has been super charming. Ive always wanted to play them all but never got the chance to until recently. The characters, world, story and just...everything is super cool
I think Judgement is a really nice detective game as it has the unique position of slotting into a already established universe (the yakuza or like a dragon series as its now called) while establishing itself as a unique entry. It has all the quirks of a yakuza game while managing to give its main character yagami a distinct personality and a distinct supporting cast. It also serves as a stark contrast to being a yakuza in games before it and serves to tie in nicely to the overarching plot of said games.
Hi Kiro, I just wanted to tell you that I've recently watched literally all of your videos and checked your posts. I just want to say... That I seriously have faith in you to hit even 1M subscribers and more. I'll keep supporting you forever because your talking is great and also your content obviously as I enjoyed every video and never got bored. Never Give Up, love what you do. One last thing, can you make a video about Fighting Games pls 😅
I greatly appreciate your kind words. That'd be amazing if I did hit 1M one day! I've actually been planning a fighting game video for a while now, so hopefully I can get it finished.
@@kirotalksyt awesome!!! Btw, I wanted to add that I'm from Iraq 🇮🇶 just so you know how your channel has been spread all over the world just imagine it! I also share your channel to my friends! And I believe it'll hit 1M subscribers hopefully. So be proud and happy 😊.
As a fan of both LA Noire and Danganronpa series, I cant wait to try Ace Attorney as well. The trilogy of best detective games in my hands soon Also, honorable mention to Batman Arkham games, for a little but of investigation gameplay here and there...
What makes Danganronpa interested as a Detective Game is that the Player Character is actually Watson not Sherlock. That tradition of the POV character and the Detective being separate is very bakes into the genre as a whole, but it is something you expect to be gone in a Game. But Danganronpa is an Otaku Game so the Holmes leading you to the right answer being a Beautiful Kuudere Waifu makes it work. There are also plot reason why Kirigiri needs to use you and not just lay out everything herself.
Detective games arent top popular but when they are done they are useally done well. I haven't played any of these games discussed but i did buy the Ace Attorney on Wii U and 3ds before the Eshops closed. I'll check them out eventually on a rainy day, they look fun
if you like the phoenix wright games you should check out ghost trick: phantom detective. it's made by the same creator with a similar writing style and it recently got rereleased on steam
another detective duology i recommend is ai the somnium files from spike chunsoft :) (it’s not by mister danganronpa though it’s by kotaro uchikoshi who also created the zero escape trilogy. which isn’t quite a detective game but i guess it does have mystery elements)
I loved AITSF and loved Nirvana Initiative until the twist was revealed, though I have heard that's pretty par-for the course for uchikoshi games apparently.
@@TableClothPersona yeah, i loved ai and was actually thinking that AiNI could surpass it when in first started playing (the hype they built at the beginning of the game with ryuki was immaculate), at least until the uchikoshi hijinks ensued anyway. still a great series of games, even if the sequel left me disappointed or mad about a few aspects
In 20+ years of gaming, the best detective game I ever played is Discworld Noir. LA Noire came close to being as good, but I'm still trying to scratch the itch DWN left. Looking forward to the Apollo Justice trilogy tho having done the other two Ace Attorney collections, they are indeed excellent :)
LA Noire doesn't really shine in the interrogation. You have no room to wiggle it's a highly simple and cheap system. If you don't ask what the Designers intended you to ask, you loose. I always thought "Doubt" was to push a bit and maybe get more infos, nah somtimes Cole just lies or yells at a victim and that ruins the investigation. It's really really REALLY BAD
Yeah, the original AA HD Trilogies on mobile and 3DS used the original assets, while AAT 2019 actually features immensely faithful sprites redrawn and hewing very close to the original assets, but done for HD resolutions.
Kind of sad that he didn’t mention grim fandango I absolutely love that game. It’s not really a deceive game but it has similar elements such as the story and puzzles.
I'm glad I'm not alone about the HD versions of Phoenix Wright. Like I always want to replay the series and the HD graphics is just...well unnatural if that makes sense. Plus, I very much prefer the DS touchscreen controls especially with the stuff like the Court Record being on the bottom screen and the characters on the top where in the HD version has to map everything to one screen and that's distracting.
I'm only at 6:30 or so and I thought you'd mention Déjà vu? Because I view it as the first detective game and it was first on Mac OG, but was popular on the NES! One of those point and click games including "Maniac Mansion", "Uninvited" or similar!
Thanks a lot for using Danganronpa clips and managing to not show a single spoiler. That''s something that's really hard to do. I remember IGN's DRV3 review literally showed a dead character's trial portrait in one of the clips.
I was only 12 when LA Noire came out, but man was I enthralled with the game and it’s aesthetic. Teleported me to a completely different time. I’d love driving from location to location rather than fast traveling just to enjoy the cars, radio, and scenery. Engaging gameplay from a truly brilliant video game
Despite L.A. Noire had some flaws, and it has some developmental issues over the years. It still holds up to be a good detective film noire style game. The gameplay mechanic and it’s way of facial animation is still looks amazing back when it came out in 2011.
PLEASE , TO ANYONE READING THIS: PLEASE PLAY AI : THE SOMNIUM FILES ITS GENUINLY THE BEST GAME IVE EVER PLAYED. PLEASE JUST PLAY IT , EVEN IF YOU CANT JUST WATCH A LETS PLAY JUST PLEASE GIVE THIS GAME MORE ATTENTION. IM BEGGING FOR MORE PEOPLE TO NOTICE IT SO WE COULD POSSIBLY GET A THIRD ONE PLEASE.
I found your channel just a few days ago and I cant believe you have only 50k subscribers. The games you discuss in this video are my favorite mystery games along with disco elysium. You should try it too if you haven't played it yet.
You forgot to include the zero escape trilogy, it's not per say a detective game but it's got murder mystery, interesting characters, a branching story path and a cool sci-fi setting and lots and lots of plot twists that will keep you up at night. Also, by the same story writer and same team, there's the AI The Somnium Files games, in which you're literally a detective solving murders with a machine you use to travel into the suspects and the witnesses's consciousness to gather clues, and just like the zero escape trilogy, it's got a sci-fi setting and lots of plot twists, lovable characters and branching story paths.
If they ever remake persona 4 completely like they did to p3 they NEED to axtually have a mystery solving segment where you have to peice up all of the clues instead of naoto talking for 15 minutes straight. Great game though
@maushii8804 p3 needed a remake because of dated mechanics. P4 is basically perfect as is. I do like the idea of finding clues, that's a great idea, p4 could use better character models and maybe flesh out the queer stuff with Kanji and Naoto. Maybe reduce the Yosuke borderline homophobic stuff or add in his cut romance?
You should 100% play ”an elmwood trail”. Whilst it’s not THE best detective game out there, the sheer concept of working with your phone is really good, the story is amazing and it’s an indie game too, worth checking it out
Recommend playing Ghost Trick since it is made by the same man who created Ace Attorney, and it is arguably his magnum opus. Play for Missile the greatest dog in fiction.
Just discovered your channel today and I've really been enjoying your style! You've got a new sub! 😁 Going off of this video, I think you would enjoy the Professor Layton series! It's been my favorite franchise for half my life. I'd love to see a video about it from you in the future one day!
I wish I could get into the danganronpa games but the character designs are too unappealing and the story was a bit too wacky to have any sense of believability or stakes for me. I'm hoping i can get into master detective archive as the character designs while still wacky seem a bit toned down
