gaming thread: Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy

sun 18.5.25

tag: gaming thread


a part of me regrets not doing gaming threads of the other 2 layton prequels cause my memory is garbage but i'm finding myself warming up to this game, so let's try to jolt some thoughts here.

spectre's call didn't leave a huge impression on me. it wasn't bad per say but i don't remember too many details aside from loosha...
miracle mask felt a bit more enjoyable. it was nice to see some layton backstory when he was young. the 3d models weren't as terrible as i originally remembered (though they're now lackluster compared to azran's). imagine having such a strong bond of love and friendship to create a town just to have a friend return home...
rewatched the eternal diva as well since i forgot it was set during the prequels too. completely did not remember people were attempting to win eternal life, and then pull a whole another code plot with transferring/copying memories from one person to another.



4.6.25
- finally 'awakened' all the eggs after revisiting all the places again only to discover that one of them was replaced with a fake. and now we're at the nest i.e. the bad guy's hideout. this place has nice music
- oh hell no don't you threaten layton's parents here
- sycamore: "i will look after the key in the meantime. now, try to get some rest." mate you've been cute but i don't trust you either
- ajkdajkdnas the reveal was practically instant hello descole
- his sole purpose is to take down targent, ok buddy wants his revenge.
- WAIT WHAT THE HELL I WASN'T EXPECTING THIS REVELATION FROM EMMY?! EMMELINE?! A SPY?!
- i mean is this uncle really worth helping?
- WHAT THE FCK IS THIS REVEAL WITH DESCOLE AND LAYTON?!?! HERSHAL'S NOT HIS ACTUAL NAME BUT THE BRO'S?! LAYTON FAMILY?!
- WHAT THE FCK IS THIS FATHER REVEAL
- damn he really stabbed her
- ah of course, build a new sentiant race and they'll destroy yo
- awwww they showed off the first cutscene from curious village at the end
- that sure was something. overall enjoyable as well. being able to explore various places was neat. the last chapter really hits



28.5.25
- sycamore had a daughter... that died??
- all eggs finally collected


21.5.25
- feeling a little sus of the butler closely monitoring our movements since sycamore commented on it, but maybe it's all just an act
- game you can't hit me with emotional music after reuniting a girl now grandma and an old dyin dog- nvm he wasn't dyin. but still nice to unite them again



18.5.25
- i started the azran legacy back on friday 16.5.25, after finishing miracle mask. the post-credits scene with descole got me too curious about the next game
- right now i'm on chapter 4, and just started the hunt for the eggs. the idea of travelling around the world is quite fun
- sycamore has been growing on me, and i'm very curious to see his reveal (cause i'm assuming upfront he's descole)
- seeing layton with a duck face had me legit wheezing irl, help
