Coloured tiles appear whenever you are about to move a character, making it clear when you are within reach of an enemy attack and when you are safe. This makes positioning a breeze, guaranteeing safe passage in the midst of chaos when moving more sensitive units like mages and healers across the battlefield. Synergy is also emphasised. If an attack is performed with an ally sitting on the opposing side of a foe’s position, you will perform a two-pronged combo that essentially doubles your damage. These are small additions, but compile to create a tactical experience that feels infinitely more layered and satisfying. It is no longer about executing a single action and hoping it goes well, forced to restart if the opposing side suddenly decides to call in reinforcements or deal a critical hit.
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.
Triangle Strategy was criticized pre-launch for sticking to its bizarre title, but at least it owns it. Everything about the game, thematically, seems to revolve around the form of a triangle to some extent or another. In the case of the Conviction system, that's plain as day with Liberty, Water Vein Challenges Morality, and Util
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
Serenoa and co. reach Wolffort Castle... and receive the bad news. And then some more bad news. And then yet another piece of bad news. It just isn't going well for our heroes, is it? It's a bad day to be a father/father figure in Norze
It should be noted here that regardless of what you have done in the past three chapters, it is possible to secure the outcome you want based on just one of these conversations. To sway Anna to your side, you will only need to answer one of these prompts with a Morality or Liberty option and then pick the best option from the tables below . Convincing Anna will be enough to get the outcome you des
Pieces of Information are very important as they can be used to sway characters to your viewpoint during a Voting Event . They will be essential for making sure you get to choose the story path you des
Some dialogue choices are locked behind having certain pieces of Information . These are acquired in exploration events and voting events by talking to NPCs and finding hidden items.
Before we get on with the vote itself, there are two Conviction choice dialogues that you can partake in by talking to Frani and Patriatte at the northern end of the bri
Anna will agree with this path if you have 'Defying the Holy One' in your inventory. You'll have either received this from Chapter 8's Exploration Phase, or you won't have; it depends on which location your version of the chapter is set wit
Raising Liberty, Morality, and Utility plays a direct role in your success rate of convincing the game's lead characters to see Serenoa's point of view during Scales of Conviction sequences. Serenoa's point of view, of course, is whatever yours happens to be, and yours will be reflective of which story path(s) you wish to expl
A wise ruler employs some measure of each of these aspects in their decision-making. The liberty to represent one's individuality within a kingdom; the morality to do what is right and refrain from what isn't; and the utility to take advantage of everything one can in order to further their people's happin
Today, you'll be exploring the outside of Castle Wolffort intending to locate Lord Dragan. You can talk to him without ending the exploration - you don't actually have to talk to him at all to progress - you can only end the event by pressing the Plus butt
So, for example, during a Scales of Conviction event you'll be chatting with, say, Geela. And in order to press Geela into agreeing with you, you'll want — again, hypothetically here — a high enough Utility score. Picking the Utility-based dialogue option will add another 50 Utility points to your stockpile, thus raising Geela's likelihood to listen as the conversation contin
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
Triangle Strategy veers in unexpected directions like this all the time, likely encouraging repeat playthroughs or a naughty bit of save scumming in case a pivotal decision turns sour. I stuck to my guns even when it was clear I should have acted differently, making me curious to revisit certain moments and seek out alternate endings where those I love might have lived, or sacrifices to my people might have been avoided if I was more cautious. One battle involves setting braziers alight to keep enemies at bay, but as a result countless houses are burned to the ground. These belong to real people, and they will reside by the wreckage in later sections talking about what they’ve lost while bitterly accepting that it was for the greater good. Nice one, Serenoa.
