    I'm not really into tactical RPGs, but I still love this game. The story is extremely enthralling and the characters are well written. The music is amazing as well. If this wasn't a tactical RPG, it would be one of my favorite games of all time.

    Fire Emblem but with a slightly more mature story. It's still full of cliches and certain small things are annoying, like the three dots slowly appearing on screen during conversations to show some weird Japanese "im in deep thoughts / i'm surprised" emotion, that gets shown way too often and animates way too slow and is not skipable with buttons.

I daydream about playing this game at work. That's how addicted I am. And it hits hard. The game isn't afraid to embrace gritty war and death. Not like those games that are too afraid to let characters die. I HIGHLY recommend this game. I'm giving it the full 10/10. Games like this are extremely rare. Expand

    Music is a huge part in my decision of getting a game and this OST is off the charts especially the lyrical version of the main theme for this game.

    - Amazing Tactical RPG.
    - Great Number of characters.
    - More than one ending and your choices along the road DO matter.
    - easy to level up your characters.
    - Great abilities each character is truly unique in their own way.
    - all characters have personality with side story
    Pretty sure Fire emblem fans will love it.

    One of my favorite tactical/strategy games that's out for the switch, alongside Fire Emblem Three Houses. One of my only main issues is the inconsistent quality on the English voice acting.

I've played many other RPGs, both western and japanese with much worse stories and endless repetitive battles that somehow get praised for both. This game's story is high up there. The setting could be a lot stronger and there are some plot holes, but the maturity of dialogue is pretty distinct for JRPGs. The quality of the story also picks up as the game progresses where the player is presented with many morally ambiguous situations.

    Same goes for the battle system. Certainly could be more complex but every character has a distinct and unique role. Plus, the battles are curated, which means you don't have to grind endlessly. Story and character development also often occurs during the battles which is a nice touch.

    Together it creates a unique and adult-enough package which is contrary to a lot of other games that often get high scores now: meaningless lore building in drab worlds and little sense of mystery and imagination or games that are focused on annoying, unrealistic characters of high school motivations.

Different routes add up to 4 playthroughs of the game (3 normal, one golden-path). I highly recommend this game to RPG lovers, and especially tactile gamers. Between the cut-scenes and battles, there are phases of exploration. Some people didn't like this, I found it appealing because each exploration phases has items littered around the map that grant pretty good abilities during battles. One such example is the vanguard scarf that always allows a certain unit to make the first move. Anyways, if you appreciate developers who make games in this genre, support them! Expand

Fantastic music and memorable characters, but the voice acting is somewhat hit or miss. I'd say that the voice acting for most characters is actually very good especially the side characters, but mediocre performances from one or two of the main cast brings it down somewhat. Still, that's a very small detail in an otherwise great game. The only real complaint that I have is that I dislike the way that they handled new game plus. They made it so that characters start again at the level they were at when you finished the last playthrough. Enemies are also scaled up to these levels. The story is set up in a way that if you want to fully experience all of the routes, you have to play through the game multiple times. Naturally, your first instinct is to start a new run on new game plus. But I actually prefer to just start a brand new save file. This allows you to use characters that you didn't use on previous runs without them being so underleveled that you would have to spend a lot of time training them up to where they need to be. The difficulty spike even on just the first level of new game plus is also way too much. But this problem can be avoided just by starting a new game, so I still feel that this game is deserving of a 10. Expand

The combat, how to equip your roster and who to pick to clear a certain map are important choices to be taken into account. The positioning of your units in combat is as important as the use of terrain and weapons/magic/buffs to your advantage. The game has a lot of replayability because of different paths you can take. In subsequent playthroughs you get access to the choices you already made and then pick something else entirely and experience a part of the game you haven't seen before. The ng+ allows you to recruit more characters based on your convictions. If you enjoy the game, I'm sure you'll cross that bridge when you get there. I will visit Norzelia again soon. Expand

It's frustrating when I can't convince certain characters to go with my choice, but that's a great thing; all of the characters you meet have distinct personalities and motivations, and the game really lets them shine. Some voice actors aren't great (though some of them are excellent, and I appreciate the full voice acting!), and the decision to use medieval vocabulary and spellings feels rather silly sometimes, but it doesn't detract that much from my overall experience.

    Overall, this game is an instant classic for me, and I look forward to future entries for this type of strategy RPG.

    Triangle Strategy may be heavy on story but the story in my opinion is what makes it stick out. It’s gripping and every decision makes you really think before you act. It really does make you think what would you do or say in that situation. The writing is amazing and I truly care for a good majority of the characters. Every single character has their own agenda.

If you’ve played a fire emblem game you will know the gameplay and love it. This game is so close to being perfect in my opinion and will probably become one of the best hidden gem on the Nintendo switch. Expand

    For the story, the game is really interesting. Most of the time, the politics displayed is "simple" but for its simplicity, it speaks about hard topics (slavery, war, the weight of principles vs the risk to life) and all is based around 3 values: ethics, pragmatism, and freedom.

I really like the idea that the game pushes me to ask myself: will I push freedom or ethics? will i go ethics and failure, or pragmatism and success? Should I push my ethics if it doesn't go with freedom? is freedom interesting if it means sacrificing my ethics? Should i fight enslavment for the sake of freedom, or aim to win and then handle the dark means i used to win?

    Gameplay: the game is quite good but hard. Many situations have you on the "losing" side; enemies may have a bit of an advantage, and it's only using a "good" play you can compensate. Battles are often not lost when you lose some units, but lose too much and you will never win. So it's a little line on which one walk.
    I have felt the grind a bit, but it was very fun because it brings gold and materials you use to improve your weapons.

    Units have skills to improve and then "rank"; rank give them access to new skills, and weapins improvement allow you to do more with the skills you have already for all skills, or rarely, one specifics skill.

    Awful (and I mean AWFUL) voice acting. The dialogue and exposition is so clumsy. The progression system feels very restrictive. The economy of the game feels very unbalanced. It does not look nearly as good as Octopath Traveler

    Thoughts-
    Taken as a whole though, Triangle Strategy is an absolute triumph, to a greater degree than I could have ever expected, and in more ways than I could have ever expected. Not only is it a solid tactics RPG that should appeal to any and all genre fans, especially those that still look back fondly on Final Fantasy Tactics, it’s also got an engaging, ambitious, and layered story to tell, backed up by incredible world-building and interesting choices with actual weight and consequences. For all of these reasons and more, Triangle Strategy is easily one of the best tactics RPGs I’ve played in recent memory.

I've just made an account to rate this game as I saw quite some bad reviews about to much text, because it's one of the best games I've played in years. Honestly, the first 2-3h if the game we're a bit tedious to get into and for some players the ratio between "story elements" and "exploration/fighting" is too heavy on dialogue. But the game rewards you with an intriguing story, very difficult choices that usually haunt you for the next hours with its ramifications and fun battles. Best gaming experience I've had for at least the last 5 years.

    PS: play the first game with choices by heart and then aim for the golden route in game+ playthrough

    The adventures through the Kingdom of Glenbrook provide a compelling experience, more so for those who love choice-based games that involve intriguing plots and tactical combat. Triangle Strategy is one of the few games where making decisions that matter is harder than actually winning battles. This is one of those games that could leave a mark on an entire gerne if Square Enix decides to turn it into a franchise.

    Story battles take about 20 minutes, while dialogue, inventory management, practice fights and everything else that takes place in-between them can take up to two hours. Nevertheless, the quality of story battles makes up for the wait because they offer a lot of variety, and every problem can be solved in a multitude of ways. [Issue#260, p.44]
