There is a button players can hit during conversations to get brief character highlights. This can help, but it’s still tricky to keep track of them all. It is a double-edged sword and can be a nice problem to have in a story. Multiple characters give the world a more lived-in feeling at the cost of being confusing at ti

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

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

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

In this walkthrough, every exploration event will be paired with tables showing what items you can acquire, Notes and Information you can learn (stored in the War Chronicle), and Conviction choice outcomes you can g

There are breaking points throughout Triangle Strategy that will branch the game out into multiple timelines. The first major decision will have players choose whether they want to visit the kingdom of Hyzante or Apps the kingdom of Aesfrost. This is at the end of chapter three, part one. At first, it seems like players will only get an exclusive character from each campa

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 this event, Serenoa takes Frederica to a Rosellan Village within Glenbrook’s borders to ask them to make a dress for their wedding. While Frederica is having her measurements taken, Serenoa is prompted to take a look around the village. This is an exploration event with lots of interesting lore to pick up from the Rosellans, but also a few to grab,

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 match 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.

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

JRPGs are often juvenile in some manner while trying to push forward a serious narrative, so it’s nice to see something that is mature in its outlook and expects us to come along for the adventure or leave it behind. I was on board from the opening moments and never looked back.

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, meaning the more varied materials players have, the bet

There are a lot of characters to keep track of in the story. While not perfect, there is an aid players can take advantage of. Most story characters in Triangle Strategy will have a character bio. Clicking a button while someone is talking will bring up a nicely illustrated portrait as well as their basic i

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

Luckily, you can take in your entire roster with you for this battle , and Dragan has a pretty good head on his shoulders. Once you’ve managed to take the heat off of him, he should head to a safe part of the battlefield and camp
