10 Features We Hope To See In Triangle Strategy

Sidequests in JRPGs can open up a lot of space for the player to gain access to additional in-game rewards such as items as well as allowing the spotlight to be put on side characters for further character development. As Triangle Strategy is being billed as a game built around a player's choices and decision making, sidequests could be used in a variety of interesting w


In short, it's a system that finally forces players to shuffle their rosters as the game progresses, and a clever solution to those who send the same soldiers into battle again and again. The challenges of maintaining a healthy roster of skilled soldiers adds plenty of surprising depth to the XCOM experie

Other Quantic Dream games available for PC would also count in this entry. Initially a PS3 exclusive , Heavy Rain eventually made its way to PC. Though quick-time events are a part of the gameplay, a majority of the game is making decisions and cinematics . One's appreciation of these games varies depending on personal tastes. They are all technologically impressive, so seeing them on a handheld will be a novelty regardless of the games' qual

If you’re playing XCom 2 , and you encounter a human-looking enemy that has white hair and a purple visor that covers the entire face, have all your soldiers target that enemy. That is probably the only chance of successfully completing that mission. That type of enemy is called an Avatar, and thankfully they are rare. They have extremely high mobility, armor, and damage potential. To make matters worse, Avatars have powerful psionic abilities as well. Many aliens can mind control the player’s soldiers; Avatars can mind control up to three at one time. This enemy can kill a well-equipped squad by itself if it’s not dealt with quic


For whatever reason, very few tactical JRPGs in recent memory have featured PVP multiplayer. Allowing players to face off against each other simply adds more variety to the game as a whole. Additionally, as the game is centered around the player's choices, opposing players may have access to different characters, weapons, and other resources based on the choices they made, making combat even more var


We've already seen from playable Triangle Strategy demo that the choices that player is forced to make aren't always going to be black and white, and that there will be pros and cons to the choices they make. Maintaining this approach over the course of the game will be key, as it can lead to a much more hollow experience with telegraphed outcomes that are much easier for the player to anticip


Few companies have mastered the art of making turn-based strategy games quite like Firaxis . The studio's work with Sid Meier's Civilization and XCOM have resulted in some incredible experiences in both franchises. What's interesting is how Firaxis were able to reboot MicroProse's XCOM franchise without sacrificing much of the depth the older titles


While not a major development fact, the XCOM franchise was the first IP Firaxis worked on that did not have Sid Meier associated with it. Sid Meier is the Director of Creative Development at Firaxis Games and responsible for many of the games developed by Firaxis, such as Civilization and titles from MicroPro


Jumping into a quick game just to fool around or do some daily challenges is a solid way to spend a short gaming session. Though it is competitive, Fortnite allows for many different types of players, from deeply competitive people to creative types who just want to bu


The Heavy Floater does not have the toughest armor, or a particularly high damage potential, but its special abilities more than make up for those deficiencies. The most exasperating ability is that Floaters can launch themselves to any location in the battle zone. This is annoying when a Heavy Floater is near death then launches out of range. They can also bombard an area, which usually negates the cover the player’s soldiers are hiding behind. Lastly, when they are airborne, a Heavy Floater can evade incoming fire; which lowers the accuracy of the player’s soldiers by


Firaxis made it clear that this game was focusing on telling interpersonal stories and experimenting with game mechanics rather than making a full expansion for XCOM 2 or War of the Chosen . The game's unique characters and removal of permadeath mainly stem from Firaxis experimenting with storytelling components. While it hasn't been outright confirmed, it's safe to assume that Firaxis made Chimera Squad as a way of testing the waters for major mechanical changes in a future XCOM ti

There is no function to skip conversations entirely though which is a feature that usually is in games. One may want to skip scenes for myriad of reasons like playing the same story twice, or someone more interested in the RPG gameplay rather than the st


The Mutons are some of the most difficult enemies to defeat in every XCom SLG game Rankings. Muton Elites are enhanced to make them even more formidable. They have some of the heaviest armor in the game, and a very high health rating. Muton Elites are armed with heavy plasma cannons; which can kill even a heavily armored soldier with one shot. Elites are also armed with explosive grenades which can negate the cover the player’s soldiers are using. They also have a suppression ability which can gives them an attack of opportunity during the player’s turn. Sometimes it seems like Muton Elites are invulnerable; which not only affects the morale of the player’s soldiers, but the morale of the pla
