![]() ![]() There’s a bar at the bottom of the screen that lets you know who’s turn it is next, and I genuinely cannot stress enough how important is it to be tactical. You get to see your units from an isometric perspective, yet have camera control to move around your soldiers and check you’re not about to be surprised round a corner. Ultimately, it’s a turn based tactical RPG that feels like an amalgamation of both the more modern Fire Emblem games and the Final Fantasy tactics titles. ![]() The setup for Triangle Strategy is very dialogue heavy indeed, but it is fitting, as it feels as though a grander story is about to unfurl as you complete chapter 3. What I would say, however, is you do need to prepare yourself for a lot of talking. The voice acting, combat, visuals, and general feel of things meant that I was very happy to get to play through the opening chapters over the past week or so. Like many playing that demo a year ago: it was enough. Whatever feedback that the development team took along the way from its first February 2021 reveal demo, the art hasn’t changed: it’s just beautiful. Both are absolutely gorgeous, and I don’t think I could ever tire of looking at each new environment as I discover it in Triangle Strategy. ![]() Any why not? Both are sublime looking games, with a modern sheen all over a retro style. So let’s get the obvious out of the way first, it’s clear that Triangle Strategy borrows an aesthetic from Octopath Traveler. But the studio for Triangle Strategy has previous, with Octopath Traveler, which is the first reason you should be very interested in this badly named Strategy RPG. I mean, you wouldn’t be as interested if 2018’s ‘ God of War‘ was called ‘Angry Shouty Man redemption arc’, would you? Well, maybe. As a game built around three nations that’s a strategy game akin to the Fire Emblem titles of the world, I get it, but it’s just silly. Honestly, I can’t help but wonder how and why the name ‘Triangle Strategy’ got approved. ![]()
