In Chapter 7 of Triangle Strategy, players must make a critical decision on whether or not to keep Prince Roland safe.
Triangle Strategy, a Tactics-style RPG, is a game of challenging choices. More often than not, players will be forced to select between two awful options. The first is a terrible choice that players must make in Chapter 7: whether or not to give up Roland Glenbrook.
Serenoa and his entourage have wrapped up their celebrations for his and Frederica's impending marriage with all three kingdoms in Triangle Strategy. While Roland and his family are still celebrating, Aefrost attacks the Glenbrook seat of power, murdering most of Roland's family and leaving him isolated in House Wolffort. Serenoa's home is then attacked by Aesfrost's soldiers, who offers Serenoa a dreadful choice: hand over Prince Roland or Aesfrost would demolish House Wolffort.
With Serenoa's Scales of Conviction in Triangle Strategy, players have only had to make one decision up until now. While the instructional choice is between visiting Hyzante or Aesfrost, the chapter 7 choice is far more difficult. Either option sounds like a bad idea, and Serenoa's pals are split on what they should do.
While Roland Glenbrook is a good friend in Triangle Strategy, he believes the best course of action is to surrender to Aesfrost's army, claiming it is his responsibility as their Prince to protect the people of Wolffort. He does not want anyone to suffer as a result of his actions. As a result, he presses Serenoa to release him. Before putting the vote to the Scale, players must persuade Anna, Frederica, Erador, and Hughette to reach a unanimous choice. Serenoa's arguments to persuade his buddies to change their minds are as follows.
To persuade the Scales to give Roland up, players only need to persuade one of these persons, so don't worry if you're missing one. Roland will live if players abandon him, so don't be too concerned about abandoning him. However, until Roland rejoins the party, he will not be able to level up in the Triangle Strategy Encampment. Players will move on to Chapter Seven, Part Two - Fate in Flames if he is surrendered.
While this option is simpler to persuade others to adopt, it is the most difficult option in the long term because players will have to face Avlora. Triangle Strategy gamers will have to choose amongst these dialogue alternatives in order to persuade everyone.
If players choose to fight Aesfrost instead of giving up Roland, the next portion of Chapter Seven will be titled: Part Two - Don't Say Anything, My Friend. They can either burn the town on fire to weaken Avlora's army or go head to head with her. In any case, this appears to be one of the most tough decisions to make during Triangle's Strategy's 40-hour run time.
This is a difficult decision for gamers, but they shouldn't sweat it too much. Players who opt to give up Roland will be able to obtain the fabled Golden Ending. If players don't give up Roland, they can still get the best ending as long as they don't set the town on fire. As a result, when deciding whether to give up Roland or keep him safe from Aesfrost, players should follow their hearts. One of the best things about Triangle Strategy is that these choices feel like huge, life-altering decisions that can mean the difference between holding the world together and having it fall apart.
