War Chronicle lets you read any of the Notes, Information, and Tutorials that you have picked up over the course of the game. It also lets you view your Path Traveled, which is useful for catching up on the events of past chapt

After escorting Frederica to a shaded spot outside the Ministry of Medicine, Serenoa takes some time to get to know the city. Things are a bit more involved this time than they were when Serenoa searched for Lord Dragan and prepared for the tourney, respectiv

The most jaw-dropping thing players will notice right away is Triangle Strategy ‘s art style. What began as a one-off has turned into a series of games. The HD-2D aesthetic is seemingly here to stay with Live a Live also receiving the same treatment, and it’s easy to see why Square Enix is keen on this graphical st

You’re up against a pretty sizeable horde of enemies here, and it’s quite a varied bunch, too. It’s also very important to note here that it’s game over for you if Dragan gets defeated . Do everything you can to stop this from happen

There is also money needed for various items like in a typical RPG . It’s harder to get materials or money in mock battles, which again, makes upgrading certain aspects tricky. It gets better the deeper players get into Triangle Strategy , but it can still be a strug

Use Quietuses and secure spoils in battle. Also, in a bit of a dark twist from the Morality guidelines, you’ll gain Utility points by winning objective-driven fights but still killing every enemy. (Example: The ‘Take Back the Boat’ mental mock battle merely requires you to have at least one unit occupy the boat on a turn when zero foes are doing so; that’ll let you win, and earn Morality points, but slay everyone first for Utility poin

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

Every aspect of combat is satisfying. The one downside is the lack of interchange job classes. Autobattles would have also been nice. Those are small nitpicks in an otherwise simple but robust strategy R

Dragan sure seemed shift at Roland’s arrival, didn’t he? After a short scene, you’ll receive The Power of Salt added to your Notes and get a chance to explore a small area of the mines. As ever, this comes with some things to pick

You’ll note that the seven characters who each wield a Coin (and thus, a vote) at the Scales of Conviction will start off with three in favor of Aesfrost, three in favor of Hyzante, and Anna on her own with a great big shrug. In order to decide for yourself which path to choose, you must attempt to ensure at least four of the seven characters agree with your p

With the sand settled and Plinius overwhelmed, the party bids their Saintly allies farewell. Corentin elects to tag along, having had his fill of Hyzante’s tendency toward closely guarded secrets. Time to head back to Glenbr

For those that want to enjoy the story but do not want to pay perfect attention, there is a button for that as well. Players can autoplay the dialogue. This negates the need to hit a button to skip to the next speech bubble every time. It’s been done in RPGs before, but it still deserves applause h

It has been a long time since Square Enix put out a strategy RPG on consoles like Triangle Strategy . It has been even longer since they have made a Final Fantasy Tactics game despite fan outcry. Will fans ever get a new one or even a re-release of one of the classics? The future is unknown but Square Enix is not shy about remasters and remak

Triangle Strategy gameplay Strategy suffers from the same thing that plagued Game of Thrones . There are a lot of characters with relationships to others, each presiding over distant lands. There are the three main kingdoms of Glenbrook, Aesfrost, and Hyzante, but then there are houses and factions within e

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

Regardless of the route you picked in Chapter Three, Triangle Strategy’s story reconvenes for this chapter. This chapter is an interesting one, giving you some glimpses of the Grand Norzelian Mines and the living situation of the Rosellan peoples in Glenbr

The Mean Twins arrive at the throne room to congratulate their Less Mean But Still Mean Brother, and a sniveling Patriatte makes an appearance. And after that… some Game of Thrones-style flavor events will unf

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
