You've chosen the practical path — the path of reason. With Prince Roland surrendered, Triangle Strategy 's story has taken a grim turn. Was this tense peace worth the decision? Well, that's the beauty of role-playing games. The answer is yes, branching Narratives replayability no, or anywhere in between, depending on where one's own thoughts linger. Or maybe you're just trying to complete every route and this melodramatic paragraph means little to you. Honestly, f

He says that the guilt of taking a bribe has eaten away at his soul, and he no longer can stand staying silent about it. He spills all the details, and players have yet another clue to get them closer to Sorsley's gu

"Serenoa's convictions have been strengthened." Play Triangle Strategy for more than an hour, and you will have seen the phrase pop up on the top-right portion of the screen at least two dozen times. It's nice to know the young lord of House Wolffort is no philosophical sycophant, but what does this really mean? Why are Serenoa's convictions constantly being strengthened, how do we as players affect the process, and why should any of us even c

While it may be hard to differentiate Triangle Strategy from its peers based on combat alone, its focus on decision-making will make it a radical departure from those that came before it. In fact, it seems like the game will be taking more creative nods from games like Mass Effect , The Witcher , and Disco Elysium rather than other tactical R

This is the first mandatory battle wherein you will have Recommended units . These units are considered particularly useful by the game for the current battle. Including all of them in your battle party will not only give you an edge but will net you some Utility points . Conversely, if you use none of them, you'll get some Liberty poin

There is something about Triangle Strategy 's production value that feels missing. Where are the character portraits? There are so many characters in the RPG that keeping track of them all is near impossible. There is art for every major character in the game too. They just aren’t spliced toget

In Triangle Strategy , depending on which choices players have made, they will come to a difficult section in Chapter 10. This chapter features the group of heroes heading into the deserts of Hyzante looking for evidence against the Minister of Salt, Sors

Even though there is a lot of talking in Triangle Strategy , it gives players options to skip past them. There is a fast-forward button to get through some of the more dead conversations. There is also a complete scene skip but

This is also the first exploration event that you'll experience that features a merchant . These offer time-limited shops that may sometimes offer exclusive items. If you want something and do not currently have the Coins for it, you can partake in Mental Mock Battles in the Encampment to earn some. This can be done even during an exploration ev

Having agreed to help Sycras with the sting operation, you now have all of Central Aesfrost to explore. As always, there are items and tidbits of info to pick up , and a few conversations that lead to Conviction boosts - the NPCs that give these have exclamation marks above th

What is known is that Triangle Strategy is here and it has been doing great in reviews. It is a return to the classic formula, satisfying in almost every way. However, it's seemingly impossible to release a game without any problems. These are just a few examples of the things this lengthy game gets right and wr

With an enemy force of 12 units, you sure have your work cut out for you. To balance the scales, you'll also have Rudolph and Sycrus on your side . Rudolph is an archer like Hughette, but prefers to get closer to his targets. Sycrus is a beefy Staffwielder with the Cheer ability, which grants them TP and buffs their strength for a few tu

Remember to make regular use of your Encampment. If you've not given it a glance yet in this chapter, you'll find that the merchant's got some new wares in stock including the first appearance of Quality-level materials. These are required to learn rank 2 weapon abilities. The silver you (hopefully) found in Chapter Seven, Part One's exploration phase can be put to good use now to unlock a rank 2 weapon. We recommend you use this first one on Serenoa, but there's no wrong ans

Triangle Strategy was criticized pre-launch for sticking to its bizarre title, but at least it owns it. Everything about the game, thematically, seems to revolve around the form of a triangle to some extent or another. In the case of the Conviction system, that's plain as day with Liberty, Morality, and Util

After taking part in your first momentous vote in Triangle Strategy , you will be taken to either the Grand Duchy of Aesfrost or the Holy State of Hyzante. With the former route, Serenoa and co. get to see the chilly north for the first time in the game and meet Archduke Gustadolph. With a large exploration event and a pretty difficult battle to contend with, this route can be a challenge. Luckily, it also comes with a nice reward - the ex-salt smuggler Rudolph, who makes for a fine addition to the team. More Walkthroug
