A Question Regarding a PL FF I'm writing

Soooo as the tittle says, I'm writing a PL Fanfiction. I've recently gotten back into fanfic writing & Layton is on my list of fics to write.

Now I used to write a lot of Professor Layton fics (most of which I never shared with people other than my family) so here's my thought; if I'm writing from the Professor's perspective, should I refer to him as Layton or just stick to The Professor or Hershel Layton?

Ex:

"Are you...Mister Layton?" The girl asked. Layton watched as the young lass awaited an answer.

I won't be doing this every sentence, but is it ok to refer to the Porfessor in this way? What are your thoughts? I haven't shared my Fanfics with anyone in a while, so this girl's got a few butterflies in her stomach (I just don't wanna dis the Professor)

Podcast review of Professor Layton and the Curious Village

Hi guys. We are Living La Vita Loca podcast. We're a retro gaming podcast for SOME of your retro gaming needs...

Specialists in PSP and PS Vita reviews, generalists in gaming, lethargists in life.

https://linktr.ee/livinglavitalocapodcast

Our latest episode is...

Episode 84: Ace Attorney Investigations (PS4), Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64), Prof Layton & the Curious Village (NDS)

https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/living-la-vita-loca/episodes/84-Ace-Attorney-Investigations-PS4--LOZ-Majoras-Mask-N64--Prof-Layton--Curious-Village-NDS-e2q8i9g

Welcome to another edition of 'Freeplay Fortnightly' where we all pick a video game that we want to play and keep it secret from our co-host (and special guest this week!). We then review said game on the podcast and ask our other pod pals to score the game out of 10 based on our review. Simple? You bet we are!

This week, we invited Fiona back on the pod to defend the honour of the Ace Attorney series after Fazz registered his inconclusive review of Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney last year. The evidence presented by the defence? Ace Attorney Investigations Collection (2024), a remaster of Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgworth (Nintendo DS, 2009) and Ace Attorney Investigations 2: Prosecutors Gambit (Nintendo DS, 2011). This is the first time the sequel has been released outside Japan so how will it be judged on the pod?

In response, Fazz decides he will try out another Phoenix Wright-inspired video game series, Professor Layton and the Curious Village (Nintendo DS, 2007). Does the puzzling protege provide a more positive affair than it's forerunner? This is the real Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright showdown you never knew you needed.

Finally, Halloween lands in the LLVL house in the form of Rich's review of Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64, 2000). Impending doom, scary moon, world go boom?!? This is Link's most horrifying adventure to date... tune in to find out why!

Enjoy the pod.

The Professor Layton Film

I just watched the film, The Eternal Diva, and I’m very confused, does anyone have any explanations? Or a link to a good YouTube video about the film?

Which game do you consider to be the best in the original Trilogy

I haven't talked about it here, but I've been working on a Professor Layton retrospective series (episode one released yesterday), and I was wondering what people considered to be the best game in the og trilogy.

If you want to add a reason why you consider it the best in the series, feel free to explain why. All I'll say is try to avoid saying spoilers.

Professor Layton and the Unwound Future, logic of time travel.

Hi everyone, I would like to see your thougs on a question about the way time travel is developed in the game. There are many lines like: "You are me, hence you lived this moment yet", it's even the main argument of Paul/Layton in order to prove that future Layton is an impostor. For me this part is poorly written, I mean, future Luke asked for Layton's help because something went wrong with its Layton, and there are many lines where future Luke says basically "It's better I don't do anything because otherwhise I could alterate more the events" which sounds like "I modified history when I asked your help" and it's a contraddition. Idk if my point is clear, but despite I think this game has many beautiful things, this detail make me unconfortable everytime I replay it.

I was finally able to download PL vs PW:AA's extra content key today!

10/23/2024

I've been going at it for the past two weeks to no avail. The download would fail each time. Until today, that is. Today, the extra content key downloaded in about 15 seconds! I have no idea how or why, but I wanted to share, and I'm happy that I can finally experience the epilogue.

what’s your favourite in game location?

I think Misthallery has to be mine. I’m replaying spectre’s call right now and it’s so fun to be rediscovering the town and the music fits with it so perfectly. I wish i could visit! what’s your favourite layton location? :)

Your Favorite OG PL Game

I only included the original series without the crossovers or spin-offs.

I’d love to know which one you all consider your favorite and why (if you’d like to explain).

For me, it has to be Curious Village because I played it so often (it was my first Layton game), or Unwound Future – that game really broke me when I was about 9 😭.
