Triangle Strategy is the latest strategy RPG to hit the Nintendo Switch. It takes place in a fantasy world wherein three kingdoms are on the constant edge of war. Peace has been brought to the land thanks to a joint mining effort. However, all is not what it se
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.
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
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
It doesn’t make much sense, but from a gameplay perspective it presents an enthralling moral conundrum that had me scratching my head on several occasions. Before making your stance clear there will always be a chance to talk with allies, engaging in dialogue and presenting evidence to sway their position on certain matters. Some will be steadfast in where they stand, while others might be open to persuasion with the right approach. Serenoa will often be free to walk into town and speak with NPCs, all of whom have a perspective to offer on current affairs and small hints towards what the right path might be.
The Holy State of Hyzante resides in the east, a desert utopia renowned for its generous reserves of salt that provide it with ample leverage over neighbouring territories. Norzelia is filled with salt and iron, two precious resources that act as economic foundations for so much of its commerce and the livelihood of millions. When a mining venture uncovers a precious secret, Aesfrost overthrows its allies and thrusts the entire continent into a state of war. Kings are murdered, allies are betrayed, and Serenoa finds himself in a position of insecurity where he must do everything he can to survive.
In this event, Branching Narratives Replayability 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,
This political melodrama is all well and good, but if the game played like garbage none of it would matter. Fortunately, Triangle Strategy is a tactical darling. While the camera is a smidge fickle and there aren’t nearly enough opportunities for grinding unless you’re willing to replay the same optional missions over and over again, the core tenets of combat are immaculate. I grew up with Final Fantasy Tactics and Advance Wars, so this feels like a robust expansion of what those games accomplished while making the genre more approachable than I’ve ever seen before. It’s still a tough bastard, and making even a single rash move on normal difficulty will see units utterly decimated. But a handful of new ideas mean conclusions like this are much less common if you’re careful about things.
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
As the first battle of the game, the battle in Wolffort Harbor is really easy. It serves as an effective tutorial for the game’s combat system, though, so read those pop-ups thoroughly to familiarize yourself with the concepts. Even if you’re an SRPG veteran, Triangle Strategy has its own quirks such as elemental puddles and its TP system for ski
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
Many strategy RPGs divide gameplay into a “player phase” when the player can move all their allies however they please and an “enemy phase” when the enemies can do the same, and Fire Emblem is no exception. Players can build their strategy around moving their units all at once in whatever order they please, and they know the enemies will all move in response to how the player leaves the field. In Triangle Strategy , there are no phases: units instead move one after another based on their speed, similar to how the speed stat works in Pokémon . Players have to instead consider when each unit, enemy and ally alike, is able to next move in order to best approach the situation and keep their units protec
