As the player, you have a chance to sway the vote to whichever outcome you desire using dialogue choices, and possible Information gathered in past chapters. Whether or not you are successful in convincing a character to your side depends on a few thi

‘Dwindling Light’ follows ‘A Soul upon The Scales’ in combining voting with exploration. You’re given the option to step outside into the castle town, which you should of course take in order to find items, shop with the merchant, and engage in Conviction Conversati

Before you attempt to sway people to your side, remember that this is also something of an exploration event. Chat to the Concierge manning the door and you can explore the Wolffort Streets to pick up crucial information and useful ite

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

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 latter route, Serenoa and co. get to see the scorching sands for the first time in the game and meet the hierophant. Hyzante’s egalitarian surface proves at least a partial facade, culminating in a conflict with rebel scholars whose worldview certainly does not mesh with those forecast by the Saintly Seven. Good thing we’ll have an ice mage to help us keep our cool. More Walkthroug

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

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

If an option requires a piece of Information, the second-best choice will also be included to know what to pick if you are missing the relevant item. For this chapter, all relevant Information is picked up in Chapter Two’s second exploration eve

The only unit you need to bring down is Plinius. As you may suspect, of course, apps getting to Plinius is no simple feat. Joining you for this battle are Exharme — who will make the best beeline possible toward Plinius, so you may wish to keep him buffed and healed — and ice mage Corentin, who will be yours to cont

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

And now for the main event. Will you see House Wolffort through the moral ambiguity of working alongside Sorsley? Or will you attempt to report his wrongdoings directly to Hyzante? Here’s how to make Serenoa’s friends see the value of each appro

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

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

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

For those of us lucky enough to live in the real world, they say variety is the spice of life. In medieval societies such as Triangle Strategy ‘s, it’s enough to hope there’s salt on the table. The first half of the game’s ninth chapter culminates in a decision to either work alongside a corrupted salt lord or abide by a forced promise to do otherw

Taking clear inspiration from the likes of Tactics Ogre and Final Fantasy Tactics, Triangle Strategy is an achingly faithful homage to classic genre conventions that can often feel too retro for its own good. However, this faithfulness is complemented by myriad innovation and creative mechanics that help it shine. Combine that with excellent characters and an unexpectedly poignant narrative and you’ve got one of 2022’s biggest surprises. After being somewhat underwhelmed by Octopath Traveller, the team behind it has returned with a tighter, punchier, and more refined experience that cuts away so much of the needless chaff.
