But a huge portion of that four hours is scene after scene of story exposition.

Everyone who’s ever played a fantasy JRPG before, that’s who.
It’s all stuff that’s been done before (and better) in other fantasy games.
It’s disheartening to see Triangle Strategy seemingly just retread old ground as opposed to doing something new.
All that said, Triangle Strategy’s opening three chapters have two saving graces: combat and character relationships.
Triangle Strategy shows the most promise in how it tackles the evolving relationships between its characters.
This means that your direction in the campaign is not entirely your own.
But you’re free to’t just pick which to go to–your party picks for you.
So while some folks may be easy to convince, others may prove significantly more difficult.
Triangle Strategy is set to launch for Switch on March 4.
