Triangle Strategy - 8/10 GS, 82 MC

https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/triangle-strategy-review-in-progress/1900-6417840/

Update: finał review is up!

Not bad.. was hoping for better, but not bad. How about you, SW? You interested in Triangle Strategy for Nintendo Switch?

Japanese games always have the weirdest names.

Dream Drop Distance

Having strange English names is part of Japanese pop culture. I doubt that these names are intended for an English-speaking audience.

Good enough for me. Will be picking up a copy tomorrow. 😁

Reminds me of that Japanese song Matt Stone and Trey Parker wrote for their anime episode of South Park. One of the best J-pop songs I've ever heard, full of weird and funny stuff.

Bravely Default

Yeah, I’m excited to play it. Though, I’ll be waiting for the summer like I am for Elden Ring.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue is one of the weirdest to me, beautiful in its weirdness.

What the hell am I buying?

lol I love JRPG names.

That's a lower score than I thought it would get. I'll probably enjoy it anyway. Not willing to pay full price, though.

Never heard of it before?

Seems like its more contained than it appears. Oh well I'm still looking forward to this.

I will wait, the demo didn't sold me the game at least not for full price.

Only thing that worries me is the grind part ... aside from that, i'm sold with the gameply and specially the story, will probably get it in a few weeks if not sooner.

I don’t think Triangle Strategy is a weird name in the typical weirdness of Japanese game names. It is focused on the Rock, Paper, Scissors kind of gameplay mechanics and focused on three different factions if I’m not mistaken.

Infinite Undiscovery now that’s a weird name. 😅

Typical shoveware on a Switch. While everyone and their mom plays the best game in the last decade, sheep are stuck with forgettable 7/10 games.

@hardwenzen: Seems fans don’t agree, Elden Ring is the worst reviewed game by fans ever made. It’s reviews are worst than Dark Souls 2. People have so many complaints it’s insane. It’s the Skyward Sword of the series.

Maybe people will play both ... i mean, not everyone wants to play hardcore games all the time, sometimes you are in the mood for something more mainstream and casual, so you play Elden Ring.

Same! *high five*

@sheevpalpamemes: *declines high five* You’re hands are probably filthy. 🤢🤮

I use scented toilet water.

I'd definitely pick it up if I wasn't swamped. I'm such a sucker for puzzle, strategy, tactics games, and love rpgs as well. it's a good hybrid of my passions

Don't make me post yet another STFU gif😊

@hardwenzen: I fund this here for you fakeboy. 😅

Its too short. An impactful quality gif must be long-enough. Yours is of a low quality.

I got a better idea.

Exist Archive. Good luck trying to figure out what that means :)

I really want this game. However I'm in the middle of playing every square inch of Elden Ring and Gran Turismo 7 drops at 11 tonight.. on top of that I really want Elex II.

Or like most people, I can get this and love it and also play Elden Ring. (odd that people honestly think people just own a switch and nothing else not even a PC....)

What do you mean its odd? People like that do exist, we have some on SW. Back in the Wii days, this place was full of Nintendo only fans. Outside of SW, there's a LOAD of them.

Of course if you own the Switch as a secondary system, there's nothing wrong, but Nintendo hasn't been good enough to be the primary in generations.

I just don't think it is all that many people. (and even less on SW)

Of course even less on SW, they all ran away during the WiiU days. But its false to think that there isn't many outside of SW. In the youtube comments alone, you can find a load of them that will justify you why they don't need anything else but their Switch.

@hardwenzen: Just be thankful for any scraps of attention that I throw your way. 😅

Your attention is not feeding me very well. Pedro's, tho. Its incredible.

@hardwenzen: My condolences to your ego then. 😅

Walmart has this for $49.94

I've sunk a bunch of hours into it, and I'm enjoying it so far.

The start is sloooow. They introduced their detailed world and politics with several hours of dialogue and minimal fighting, which...probably wasn't the best choice. A few 'training sessions' and pointless bandit encounters would have really spiced up the intro.

Past that, the structure is Fire Emblem and the combat is FF Tactics. It's a good mix. I don't know what to make of the conviction system and branching story paths just yet (playing it blind), but I'm sensing good replayability here.

Picked up the game today. Looking forward to trying it out for a bit this weekend.

Playing the demo right now, and honestly, I am enjoying this way more than I am enjoying Elden Ring.

The beginning is slow for sure. But the worldbuilding is superb and clearly well thought out. From what I am hearing from a friend who has gotten further, the C&C becomes extremely gripping as time moves on.

I am just glad to play a decent game again, if anything.

man, the switch has a bunch of great games. SMTV I just beat after pouring in almost 140 hours. I wasted way to much time on that game though.

actually I feel like the switch can be a primary system. It has tons of great games that provide unique experiences. Not everyone has time to dedicate to 2 or 3 different consoles plus a pc. Gaming is a personal thing, and everyone has their own interests.

A friend of mine owns a switch by itself and hes happy with it, playing games like pokemon, mario kart, etc.

Game is incredible. They really get you involved in the politics/story.

Don't be a fool, the Switch is as far as it can be from a primary. You have no online multiplayer (don't even bother calling the meme that they have as an online infrastructure), unplayble frames, visuals are so bad that any crossplay titles you're in an instant disadvantage, minimal to no third party support unless its old ass titles from generations ago that you've already owned and beaten, etc. If you own a pc, the Switch is not even a secondary, because the PS5 would be it. Nintendo has left chasing the first position, and instead, are chasing parents money so they buy it for their 6y old.

LOL...got to love how you called me a fool in the first sentence. I could have swore last week I played mario kart and super smash online with my friend. I guess I must have been hallucinating.

Your main gripe is as usual about graphics and frames. Calling the switch out as trash graphics, but 10-15 years ago, we were all playing these level of graphics and it was state of the art back then. People loved playing games as much then as they do now.

Face the facts, people don't care about graphics all that much.

Again, you talk about graphics as if this was the only difference between the Switch and REAL SYSTEMS. How about 17fps gaming in 2022? How about 2004 online infrastructure? How about missing out on 95% of quality third party titles? How about paying the same amount, but get an inferior, way way inferior version of every third party game? How about having nothing to look forward to but the monthly "Bayonetta3 is still in development" updates? The Switch is nothing else but a meme you buy to play a 3D mario once per 3-4 years.

what an ignorant comment. lol. Im almost surprised...no actually im not. But that is about the most nonsense ive seen in a post in a while. What does the online infrastructure matter? As long as it works and people can play online with their friends without much lag, then what else do you need? Not all those 3rd party games matter that much. Look at belden ring and how badly it flopped with a 65 user review. BF2042, where EA is talking about shutting it down after 3 months..and cyber punk a game that was released before it was finished.

Theres plenty to look forward to on the switch. The first wave of the mario kart dlc should be releasing soon. Triangle strategy just came out, metroid dread came out 3 months ago, same with SMTV. Jeez, you just keep owning yourself. Xenoblade chronicles 3, chrono cross, switch sports, BoTW2, advance wars. Actually, nintendo has a better lineup of games than pony does this year.
