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
As a result, it’s important to pay attention during this chapter. There are two exploration events and a battle to contend with, so there are plenty of items and tidbits of info to miss. But don’t worry, you’re in safe hands with
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
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.
Luckily our hero isn’t alone, accompanied by his betrothed Frederica Aesfrost and Roland Glenbrook. The former is his betrothed and sibling to the rulers of Aesfrost, making her subject to racial distrust and sudden vitriol thanks to her fluorescent hair and willingness to side with the enemy. Roland is the prince of Glenbrook, and following his father’s death must hatch a plan to save his family and take back everything that was lost.
Upon their arrival in Hyzante, Serenoa’s entourage is reminded rather brusquely of the Hyzantian distaste toward Frederica and all other Roselle. Moments later, the group meets with the hierophant, who speaks through Minister Idore and poses a quest
This is also the first exploration event that you’ll experience that features a merchant . These offer time-limited shops that may sometimes offer exclusive items. If you want something and do not currently have the Coins for it, you can partake in Mental Mock Battles in the Encampment to earn some. This can be done even during an exploration ev
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
Conviction, as it happens, is a shorthand for a three-pronged system: Liberty, Morality, Utility . The three play against each other in varying ways, and they’re pivotal in the making of many of Triangle Strategy’s narrative decisi
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
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
Ultimately there is no right decision, and Triangle Strategy accommodates each narrative branch with a level of flexibility I never would have expected from the genre. One early decision has your party deciding to make a trip to Aesfrost or Hyzante for political purposes. I chose the latter, monopoly go pickaxes which led to me encountering unique characters and information that would have a huge impact on the events to come. If I had chosen otherwise things would have unfolded so differently, perhaps unveiling the evil plot and the motivations behind our central villains far sooner. Frederica also would have encountered her siblings, a dramatic encounter I decided to avoid because I didn’t want her feelings to suffer, knowing how delicate the situation had already become.
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
The characters you’ll need to sway to head to the deserts of Hyzante are Roland, Erador, Hughette, and Anna. You can safely ignore Frederica, Geela, and Benedict, as they are already in favor of this propo
First, let’s note that a heightened degree of Conviction in a particular aspect “feeds into itself” in a nifty fashion: selecting a dialogue decision during Conviction-related conversations will boost that decision’s reflected aspect substantial
Likely the easiest way to accrue Utility points is by gathering information, notes, and items during Exploration Phase. Our walkthrough always lists everything that can be found in towns and such, so simply gather as you normally would, and you’re gol
