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

The Fire Emblem series hasn’t utilized the direction units face as a game mechanic, although other strategy RPGs such as Final Fantasy Tactics do. Triangle Strategy takes after Final Fantasy Tactics by including unit direction – where players place their units is always going to be important in both Fire Emblem and Triangle Strategy , but players will have to also consider the direction their unit faces in the latter. Whenever a unit is hit from behind, they’ll take a critical hit – something players want to protect their units from and utilize when they see an enemy open
Thankfully, the introductory chapter is great at easing you into the game’s flow. You’ll meet quite a few of the principal characters, get to take part in your first bout of combat, and get acquainted with the game’s complicated Conviction sys

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 former route, Serenoa and co. get to see the chilly north for the first time in the game and meet Archduke Gustadolph. With a large exploration event and a pretty difficult battle to contend with, this route can be a challenge. Luckily, it also comes with a nice reward – the ex-salt smuggler Rudolph, who makes for a fine addition to the team. More WalkthrougTriangle Strategy made me feel like a terrible person. JRPGs are normally defined by anime melodrama and silly haircuts, but this TRPG somehow brings out the human side of fantasy as we are forced to make decisions that have a tangible impact on the world around us. Ruling a kingdom is no easy task, especially when you find yourself embroiled in a war where everyone around you is a potential saboteur ready and willing to embrace betrayal.
The larger number of Fire Emblem games to choose from is offset by their growing scarcity, especially with the Nintendo 3DS eShop shutting down in March 2023. Still, Triangle Strategy ’s accessibility compared to most Fire Emblem titles, which are still Japan-only , doesn’t mean it’s a one-to-one replacement for them. The two actually have major mechanical differences that can either lead players to prefer one greatly over the other or to offer welcome diversity in the SRPG fan’s collect
Triangle Strategy takes a twisty path to its finale, with a fair few battles and story beats playing out in entirely different ways. This is first depicted in Chapter Three, when Serenoa must decide whether to visit Aesfrost or HyzaJRPGs 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.
This is the most readily apparent example of Convictions playing out in your favor; whatever it is that our above example would theoretically pertain to, you’ll stand a far better chance of accomplishing it with a high score in a particular aspect. Grinding that out, even if you can’t see the exact stockpile number until New Game Plus , is still worth the eff
Once you have won the battle, you’ll get to learn a little bit more about Rudolph’s story and end up recruiting him into your party permanently. Unfortunately, you don’t get to keep Sycrus and his overpowered buff sk
Fire Emblem titles have dabbled in “branching paths” in the past. In Thracia 776 – a “midquel” to Fire Emblem: monopoly go fortune expedition rewards Genealogy of the Holy War – and Sacred Stones , players can choose between two different “paths,” or sets of chapters to complete, which change the maps they visit and characters they can recruit. But in both these games, the deviating paths eventually merge, and the games thus feature a singular ending regardless of which path they chose. Games like Fire Emblem Fates and Three Houses feature drastic story splits, but they’re each treated as their own game – to the point where players must buy the different “routes” of Fates separately – and don’t have major deviations within them or different endings to unl
