The thing I fear is many of these game's achieve lower sales than others. Whilst FE is doing better than ever it still only sold 1 million units, which whilst amazing for a normal game, for one of the biggest games in the genre? Those numbers are concerningly low.

From this trailer it looks like you can lose party members based on your decisions. I’m curious to see what happens. I would be devastated to invest in a character only for them to leave me later on in the game. I guess that’s part of the strategy on how you vote and what path your choices take you. This game looks to have a lot of replay ability to see the different outcomes. I’m excited for this game to arrive. Hopefully they do a final demo like they did Octopath Traveler.

[@Klffsj]

That would be really interesting. I would assume that your decisions will affect which characters can/will join your party, but I really like the idea that a divisive choice can break apart the party. It kinda forces a majority voting system in a game where the player makes the final call. That alone is quite the juxtaposition, and it fits the theme of convictions very well in my opinion. I'm glad for replayability, but I hope the games a good bit longer than Octopath traveler. Perhaps the 3D, turn-based combat system will help add some hours.

The demo was wild with the twists your choices provoked, I hope they are as meaningful in the final game

[@AegixDrakan]

I mean, the trailer shows that you can completely alienate your three top advisors in some way, so odds are PRETTY good that your choices will be meaningful.

[@RPanda3S]

What choices? Was there more than one battle in the demo? I don't remember anything but a battle on a bridge (preceded by wayyyyyyyy too much text/dialogue).

[@natanmaia3575]

The demo had 4 battles depending on branching fates. Some of the paths (like surrendering) caught me VERY off guard; i don't think I've seen stories in those perspectives before.

[@natanmaia3575]

And yes, TS is a dialogue heavy game, one of its strongest point even; if you just skip dialogue the battles are meaningless, held only by solid mechanics

At least "Cyberpunk" describes the exposition rather than the gameplay. Granted, "Triangle Strategy" barely even describes the gameplay.

They could have named it "The Salt Iron Chronicles" or something lore related. I am severely dissappointed in the name but super hyped for the game.

[@Narc51423]

I did very much enjoy the demo, but there are a couple of small thing that bothered me, both within the encampment: 1. When upgrading your character's weapon, you could not easily see their existing stats. You have to exit the smithy, go to the roster, check the relevant stats to see what you want to do, go back to the smithy, and then select the appropriate upgrade. 2. Also with the smithy: You should be able to purchase missing materials when choosing a weapon upgrade. The game should notify you that you would purchase X missing materials at a cost of Y and let you decide if it is worth it. If you say yes, then the materials are purchased and immediately applied to the upgrade you selected. I very much dislike having to leave the smithy, go to the merchant, buy the materials, walk back to the smithy, and complete the upgrade. Its clunky and doesn't need to be. Again, these are somewhat small things (though they appear to be core transactions that will happen many, many times throughout the game) and I admit to being a very, very picky player. Aside from these, though, the game is everything I expected it to be!

[@dx90o0]

This game looks really promising, especially if the choices offered actually leaf to major consequences in the story and gameplay. The name is terrible though.

[@BonerificPoptart]

Well from the way the trailer introduced your companions and the characters and the fact that Octopath was a game about 8 character stories. I can only assume of your companions you will have to chose 1 of the 3 and kill the other two and there are 3 fractions those companions will side with throughout the story and you need to balance this 3 way(triangle) system with lots of strategy👍 Very long and winded explanation but i feel its a solid guess.
