TRIANGLE STRATEGY

无法选择自己要的路线，被限制死，要真结局就只能玩2周目

I agree with what most people seem to say about the game. The combat gameplay is very good and the single reason I would recommend this game overall. Every battle is handcrafted and layout of the map and enemy positioning and composition makes you carefully consider your own positioning and the units you bring to the battle, as each unit has unique abilities. Some of these are more situational while other characters are more generally useful. If you enjoy turn based combat systems this is certainly one of the better ones. The story is alright overall. Especially at the start however it feels like a visual novel and takes too much time compared to the combat while the story also starts very slow. The ratio shifts a bit later and I overall enjoyed it still. But I can understand if people lose patience with it before it takes off. There are multiple branching paths in the game so you are incentivised to replay the game despite the maps being handcrafted. I have not done so yet but I can see myself doing so in the future. That said there are a couple things I have to criticise and which lower the enjoyment of the game a bit: 1. English Voice acting could be better. It is not consistently bad, some characters are solid, but some are pretty bad. And maybe too many characters lack a bit character, especially in the early game. Unfortunately in my opinion that especially applies to the main character Serenoa. 2. Itemisation is boring and tedious to manage. Most items just give you a minor stat boost and because they are very limited in quantity and expensive, you have to reshuffle them every fight if you don't always bring the same team. 3. Resources and money are very limited. You can technically farm them infinitely if you grind out the mock battles, but this would be insanely time intensive. It is not required to grind out everything but this design just doesn't feel well. Some of the rarer materials are also so limited you actually cannot fully upgrade every character in the first playthrough, which the game does not tell you. Some of the characters also only appear late in the game, only to learn that you cannot upgrade them anymore because you used the material they need already for someone else. 4. Character upgrades are fairly limited and only a couple upgrades feel impactful. On the other hand most characters have one upgrade choice that excludes the other, and once you choose there is no way to change. Even if you go into NG+ you are stuck with your previous choice. 5. The Voting system (Scales of Conviction) concept sounded interesting how it was advertised but the implementation was rather disappointing.
