Chapter Two thrusts you immediately into your first exploration event in Triangle Strategy. This is an opportunity to relax for a while and talk to your allies and NPCs. There are items to be found as you explore each location, and some characters will give you Conviction choic

In battles, you’ll earn Morality points through achieving victory without killing every enemy unit (obviously impossible in fights where the goal is to do just that). Buffing your allies also earns Morality points, so a character like Benedict is highly helpful here despite his more Utility-minded personal

While it’s possible to enjoy a playthrough without looking ahead and planning everything out, some of you will want to know exactly how to secure the vote in your favor. Success will depend on your Convictions, but you can do things to boost your chan

Serenoa and co. reach Wolffort Castle… and receive the bad news. And then some more bad news. And then yet another piece of bad news. It just isn’t going well for our heroes, is it? It’s a bad day to be a father/father figure in Norze

Once the battle is over, revel in your victory and watch the following scenes. Unfortunately, you don’t get to control the battle against the Dawnspear – but it’s probably for the best. Oh, well. At least that is chapter two of Triangle Strategy compl

It’s been a while since a big-budgeted tactical RPG launched on Switch. It’s as close to a sequel as Final Fantasy Tactics as fans are going to get for now. That’s not to say Triangle Strategy is an example of beggars can’t be choosers – far from it, actua

One thing that is missing completely is cutscenes. The PSP version of Final Fantasy Tactics added cel-shaded cutscenes to some major plot points, and they looked great. They aren’t needed in Triangle Strategy but they would have rounded out the package nic

In Triangle Strategy, there will be multiple events that require you to make a decision using the Scales of Conviction . This involves a vote held amongst seven of your allies, who each get a say in the mat

The chapter also features a fun battle against individuals from one of the other Norzelian countries, and the strategic aspect of the game gets a little deeper as it prepares you for the challenges to c

So, for example, during a Scales of Conviction event you’ll be chatting with, say, Geela. And in order to press Geela into agreeing with you, you’ll want — again, hypothetically here — a high enough Utility score. Picking the Utility-based dialogue option will add another 50 Utility points to your stockpile, thus raising Geela’s likelihood to listen as the conversation contin

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

This battle is a little step up from the tutorial battle back in Chapter One, but it’s still not too tough. This battle is when you’re introduced to the Battle Preparation menu. Here, you can decide the placement of your units and even head to the Encampment for last-minute shopping if nee

Merchants only have a set number of materials in their possession at a time. For example, the camp merchant may have three pieces of iron to buy. Materials like iron are used in a skill tree. Each character upgrades a different way, Tournament Rewards meaning the more varied materials players have, the bet

Triangle Strategy takes a twisty path to its finale, with a fair few battles and story beats playing out in entirely different ways. This is first depicted in Chapter Three, when Serenoa must decide whether to visit Aesfrost or Hyza

Today, you’ll be exploring the outside of Castle Wolffort intending to locate Lord Dragan. You can talk to him without ending the exploration – you don’t actually have to talk to him at all to progress – you can only end the event by pressing the Plus butt

HIgh Conviction scores also influence the arrival of new playable characters via Character Stories . Starting around the fourth chapter or so, Character Stories will be accessible by pressing the ‘+’ button while on the field map. Some Character Stories further develop important cast members in fun ways, and those will typically pop up per how often you use a given character in battles. But the rest will, indeed, provide powerful new units for Serenoa’s a

Likely the easiest way to accrue Utility points is by gathering information, notes, and items during Exploration Phase. Our walkthrough always lists everything that can be found in towns and such, so simply gather as you normally would, and you’re gol

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
