Everything is situated here, and once again I would have welcomed a bit of extra variety to spice things up. Triangle Strategy is rather traditional in its definition of fantasy, so those who aren’t pulled in by political showdowns and melodramatic expressions of bloodshed might not find a lot to love here. The voice acting doesn’t help either, some of which is downright awful thanks to a lack of direction that has some characters come across as emotionless husks that never give the writing they’re propping up justice. Serenoa is easily the worst, a rather damning indictment given he’s the main protagonist we hear from all the damn time.

There is an aspect of the sound that is not perfect. The voice acting, for about 80% of it, is great in English. The acting isn’t the problem though, it’s the amount of dialogue. Many fractured scenes take players back and forth on the map, even if a scene is continued from that same po

In Fire Emblem games, whether they allow units to change their class or not, the player needs to be provided with multiple units of the same class just in case one of them dies at some point. Although they may have different personalities and backstories, mechanically they function the same. Some Fire Emblem games will give each unit their own exclusive skill to let them stand out, but otherwise, the units are interchangeable with each other. On the other hand, units in Triangle Strategy whose HP reaches 0 leave the field of battle for the rest of the map, but they don’t die forever. Players may be left at a disadvantage and take longer to win in Triangle Strategy when their unit leaves, so they still need to be considerate of how they strategize, but this also means Triangle Strategy has more leeway to make each unit highly distinct from each ot

Once the event is over, you will have access to the Smithy in your Encampment . At the Smithy, you can trade Coins and materials for upgrades to your character’s weapons. These can be as simple as attack increases or grant entirely new passive abilit

Each major character also has a trait unique to them – such as being able to act twice in a single turn or build ladders to navigate trickier terrain. Everyone is different, which makes selecting which units are coming into each battle that much more difficult. You will need to mix and match in order to pawfect match monopoly go each new situation, which can often result in lower level characters having to hang back until they are needed because, as I said before, grinding opportunities in Triangle Strategy feel oddly truncated for a JRPG of this scope. Outside of battle and between story sequences you are free to visit a War Tent filled with your allies ready to strike up conversations. This is also where merchants and traders are found, who are required to upgrade weapons and advance character classes on the regular.

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

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

The second chapter of Triangle Strategy introduces a few new concepts. The first is exploration events, short scenes where you control Serenoa as he goes rooting through strangers’ possessions for items and learning more about his philosophical convicti

Triangle Strategy is an excellent game that expertly combines satisfying combat and a layered narrative to create something I didn’t know I needed. Serenoa Wollfort’s journey is punctuated with intrigue, betrayal, and triumph that are all driven by player decisions that actually feel like they matter. It isn’t smoke and mirrors on a moral railroad presenting the illusion of choice, it’s a ride or die political rollercoaster where failing to convince a single ally will result in the untimely deaths of thousands.

It would have been preferable to have one giant cutscene rather than a bunch of them. In general, there is way too much talking. The characters and story are well-done, but it could have been tighter and presented better. There is nothing worse than a meandering conversation in an R
