Great job on the review, I'd say you hit the nail on the head. I'm on my third run of new game+ now and I'm really enjoying just how many options I have to be able to just swap people in and out and really use the niche characters in their best moments. You review again, objective and impartial as always, really makes note that this game really wants to be played over and over. Great work and I look forwards to seeing whats next on the list.

[@kaidorade1317]

Props to this game for making NG+ different than simply upping enemy stats!

[@gamlash95]

But at the expense of severely limiting the first run through of the game.. at least from what I hear from reviews. I'm not a fan of NG+ and just like to play 1 playthrough and move on so the fact that the options open up only for NG+ hinders me buying the game

[@kaidorade1317]

@@gamlash95 that’s fair

[@MrWasian]

@@gamlash95 I can see that, I'm usually that way, but ended up trying NG+ and am loving it. It also helps the game doesn't take the FE route and have permadeath as a thing in battles. Compared to the FE franchise I like the more laid back nature of TS. Makes it worth running NG+ imo

I was super excited about this game initially on release to scratch that FFT itch, but couldn't bring myself to finish it even once unfortunately. This review hits the nail on the head as to why.

[@empty_melodies]

As a fellow FFT fan, I appreciate your comment. I just got a switch and have been wanting to try this game out but Tactics Ogre Reborn just came out and now I can’t decide between these two games.

Hi Mortym! I've had this game wishlisted for a while. Been waiting patiently for you to review it. Thanks for all the awesome content.

[@javiernovoa8756]

Solid review. I'm in my first playthrough of the game and while restricting the story has me hooked. Looking forward to unlocking new game+ to see how it opens up. $60 is steep, but the story, art style, and combat really sold me on it.

[@SeanUCF]

Congrats on the growth and success, you absolutely deserve a million subscribers.

[@3lttlbirds]

I really agree with you. Actually i ve done +170h in this game unlocked 28 characters 2 normal ends from Benedict and Frederica and got the true end in my 3rd game now I started NG+3 in hard to complexify the game because all of my chars are in Level 50. I need to find Cordelia and Travis. Get to find last diaries from Norzelia. And unlock Roland ending but I m really not enjoying to get this end because i hate Hyzante's church. About the combat in hard just one mistake and you re finished. I love this game so thinking in that i ll reach 200h on this amazing game!

[@flippysbackyard]

Just finishing my play through on new game+ (second play through) going golden route. I gotta say, I’ve been loving this game and agree with your points. If you allow yourself the time with the story and multiple play throughs, this game really opens up and becomes an awesome experience. Good review!

[@matthewvillegas6494]

Thank you for an honest review Definitely appreciate the point that this game benefits from multiple playthroughs Fortunately this game is on sale on Steam for 50% off so I don’t feel under pressure to decide if refunding within a couple hours or keeping it I enjoyed Final Fantasy Tactics Advance so I think this captures the magic of Square

[@sinisterdesign]

Solid review! It's nice to see you covering more SRPGs. :)

[@Menleah]

Heck yes, agreed!

[@michaeloffgrid]

It's strange that something so story driven got ported to Quest. It's only $30 on there, so it makes it easy to take a chance on it. Admittedly, part of the appeal is just the sheer curiosity of playing a game like this in VR.

[@Levyathyn]

Easy subscribe. I still haven't made up my mind on whether or not I'll buy this, but your review was insightful, helpful, and in-depth.

[@Rasc0117]

That was quick. I started yesterday and just finished chapter 2 lol Glad I'm not the only one who noticed the controls for PC were bad, even changing the mouse sensitivity didn't do much. Switched to my controller before the first battle.

[@Jmerithew87]

Fire Emblem: Three Houses has been the game to finally get me interested in SRPGs, I’m wrapping up my 4th play through now and am still loving it. Hearing that Triangle Strategy has immense replay value has me even more excited to play it.

[@zero11010]

I’ve tried to get into fire emblem twice. It’s too slow. I want to play a game, not walk around and talk to people at a school. It’s so boring! The pacing is a lot better in triangle strategy. They have moments where you run around and explore, but it doesn’t feel as tedious.

I bought this one, but have yet to complete it. The story isn't really grabbing me so far. I love TRPGs though, so I'll get to it, but I'm already eagerly looking forward into November. I've already pre-ordered "Tactics Ogre Reborn" (cannot wait for that! 😆) and the first of the remastered "Front Mission" games!

This game was a ton of fun, and I appreciate it didn't take too long to finish a playthrough; lile with Tyranny, it offers interesting replayability instead.

[@dominiccenteno1233]

It's nice to see you play JRPGs. I haven't touched this game yet (waiting for discount) but this review is making me want to immediately buy it. I'm pretty sure I will buy this right after Diofield Chronicle.

[@ceasec]

As someone who has played both, Diofield is pretty skippable. It’s fun, and I want to support the game, but it’s so damn easy due to the game’s mechanics. Triangle Strategy was, for me, an incredible experience.

[@joearnold6881]

Ew don’t buy diofield over this…. Triangle Strategy is 33% off _right now_ on Switch, btw, for like five more days.

[@bradford433]

I gotta agree with what @Christian Chapman said, Diofield was a bit of a letdown. It looks nice and plays okay, but it's way too repetitive and easy even on hard mode and the story's not very good imo

[@jepeman]

How different are the different playthroughs? As in how much of each paythrough/path are the same scenes and battles and how much you get actually new/unique scenes and battles?

[@Corran123]

If I remember correctly, there are 4 different paths with 5 missions each in the middle of the game and 4 endgame paths with 4 missions. Each of those missions is unique, though they may share a map on occasion.

[@TheRedWaltz24]

I bought this game at launch for the Switch and I have only beaten once, so far, but I didn't feel "walled in" or "restricted." It is my game of the year at this point.

[@fearlv1rattata]

I like your reviews but I personally loved the game. I felt like the choices were actually really tough at times. I thought it was incredible. Major plot twist was awesome and definitely a surprise. Very valid points made here though.

[@Hoho2014]

Great review, thank you! I'm still a bit hesitant. I can tolerate long cutscenes, but a whole 1-hour cutscene will really test my patience. I guess I'll flip coin...

[@silentobserver888]

Getting this! I want to create a CRPG with this graphical style and design but with western style stats, and dialogue system. A fusion of Eastern aesthetics and western crpg design philosophy.

Not exactly that, but Gjallarhorn seems like a potentially neat fusion of JRPG and CRPG philosophies.

[@Marek82313]

Very good game. I am not a strategic RPG fan, I started playing games of this genre just recently (this, Tactic Ogre Reborn and Front Mission 1st) and I was a bit skeptic whether I would have liked it. The story takes a while to become interesting and the first run seems very tightly controller, but after getting accustomed to the game it becomes really enjoyable.

[@staticwild8513]

I think Triangle Strategy is a masterpiece, quite frankly. I've played a lot of SRPG's and this one pulled elements of all of them in a really effective way for the ultimate SRPG experience. To me it has a Game of Thrones gripping and surprising storyline without annoying anime elements that plague some other SRPGS. It has a visual style that harkens back to Shining Force 3 and FFT while also looking modern and beautiful. It has a soundtrack that is unbelievably good, one of the best I've heard (and should be mentioned more). And the gameplay is comprised of a solid gameplay loop with good developer choices for an SRPG to have. Personally, I can't wait for a sequel, hope it happens.

[@mtaur4113]

I have been having an alright time on NG0 with the persuasion checks, but maybe it's because my convinctions are a bit spread out. And apparently grounding the mock battles is worth smaller amounts, but hard to say. It is going to be annoying in the "good" ending which allows you to deploy more characters than you could reasonably have without NG+. If I get that far, I will probably just lower the difficulty and call it even.

[@unixtreme]

Mad respect for a proper review channel that actually completes the games properly. There are many games that only get better in the endgame, and there are many games with lackluster endgame.

Just coming back after your recommendation. Replayed and on my half way point of ng+ and loving it! I'm trying to pass each stage without turtling too much meanwhile not letting any or many character deaths, on hard. It creates the challenge and lets me strategise and replay each unique stage 😊.

These games can be played simply or very tactically, like chess if you rush your move you will be destroyed quickly, but if you think & plan your moves then it will offer a good tough challenge, i wish they could include some sort of versus mode v real opponents

[@donbemont7901]

Thank you for another organized, to the point review. In this case though I think you might be a bit tough on story dominance, seemed it could be easily fast forwarded. And I think you were too lenient as to the playability on PC with mouse/keyboard. I found it to be a show stopper with rooftop tiles untargetable either for shooting at or for movement.

[@Rallosz]

I’ve played a lot of tactics games, and this one is by far my favorite! As was mentioned in the review, it is a VERY polished experience. If you like the story aspect of RPGs coupled with tactics gameplay, you’ll love this game. I used to really like games like Fire Emblem but it kind of died down with these later iterations where they imo went off the rails. You would often have to go on “tea time” dates with your students for them to join your band. I signed up for a tactics game, not a dating sim! And while I get rapport building, they’ve taken it too far. If you want a game that is a return to form for the Tactics genre, this is a must-play.

IMO it's not anything like FF Tactics. Tactics was character driven. This game... lacks a lot of characters. I don't know if it was on purpose or not but notice how in his review he didn't go over any other characters, allies or enemies? It's because they're all forgettable and replaceable.

I love pixel art sprites, and I'm sad to see them get waned out of games, so I really love them here. The main serious where it made me really sad, of course, was pokemon. IMO a lot of the pokemon just don't really translate well into the 3d style, being made specifically for anime, manga, and sprite-based games... and they had a good thing going when they introduced the animated sprites into their games... but 3d just ain't it. The mix of pixel sprites and 3d environments is a bit weird to see at first, but honestly I love that they're paying homage to games like FFT, and it feels really good to finally see a AAA company go back INTO the pixel art style with games like this and Octopath, instead of abandoning it. It's both nostalgic, and new, and in my opinion, really pretty.
