I think the best plot twist of this game was finding out that serenoa was actually king Regna’s biological son I seriously saw no major hints that pointed to that even paying closer attention in the side stories I was really caught off guard and then I really felt I couldn’t betray none of 3 supporters beliefs I’m glad I got the golden ending on my first run
I never stopped playing this since launch until i finally got my golden route on my 2nd playthrough. Loving this gem of a game so much, and the soundtrack is just amazing
for anyone coming to this video for the requirements they are basically Ch7: don't use the fire traps if you chosed to protect Roland // Surrendering Roland doesn't matter. Ch9: Go ahead with the illegal salt trade (don't turncoat Sorsley) Ch10: Reveal Roland's identity to Svarog (only available if you went ahead with the salt trade) Ch12: Protect the Roselle Ch15: Return to see Lord Symon Ch17: If above conditions are met you'll have a choice between "using the scales" or "there must be another way" choose the second and Sereona will give himself a Q/A that you can basically try over and over until you get the right answers. Note that this route battles are really really hard even on easy/ normal on a first playtrough without at least 25 recruited characters
That note at the end is so true, had to pretty much cheese the first 2 of the individual regiment battles exactly for the reason you stated: too few characters, and then about 1/3 of them were underleveled and underequipped
I did this on new game+ hard. I was kind of disapointed. Divine punishment didnt always oneshot, so it felt kinda cheap. He didnt summon more than 3 hierophants (which I’m happy for.) Didnt act until i hurt him and sometimes didnt abuse his act twice. I hoped for a horrible time but ended up first trying it. I kind of wanted a galdera fight (which took me 45min +) But in the end, I very much enjoyed it. Very good story and very good fights.
Wow! I really want to know the breakdown of all the different variables because for my Golden Route ending, the wedding was in Castle Wolffort, not at Whitholm. This game is so phenomenal, I'm just mad they didn't give us at least 5 more minutes of epilogue.
You get it at Castle Wolffort if you avoid using the traps during Benedict's section. I consider it to be better, especially because of the door, but otherwise, I don't think there is anything else that varies.
The the first time I played through I got the worst ending because I didn't find the salt crystal, my first real ending I took Benedict's plan, then after that I play through one more time for the golden route With the golden route obviously being the best because it's supposed to be, I think Benedict's route is the second best, I looked up Frederica and Roland routes on RUclips and thought they were the worst So I feel pretty good going with Benedict's route for the first time in my blind playthrough
@@DeltaMcKnight yeah Frederica's route, at first I thought Centralia might have been a myth so I didn't think it was a good idea, and then I saw on RUclips that Serenoa sacrifices himself, that's why I didn't like it, and I wasn't about to submit the world to a false religion so Roland's route was out of the question and I didn't care for him much, I thought he was a weak King, so to me Benedict's route was the only logical one, plus this might sound cold but Gustadolph didn't kill my family, well maybe he did but I didn't grow up as royalty lol
@@shonwest1539 yea, i didnt pick Benedict cuz i didnt wanna abandon the roselles but rolands path was even insane. Is good that the good ending balance it out. Also Serenoa nvr wanted to rule, he just wants to be a loyal vassal.
@@DeltaMcKnight yeah Roland's plan was out of a question plus it would have left the Roselle in slavery they and would have had to give up the ones hiding in the Wolffork area, Rolands plan would have abandoned everyone so I didn't see him fit to be king and because I'm also technically of royal blood I thought it might have been my duty to take over because I wasn't really a Wolffork I thought Benedict's plan would accomplish three things I saw necessary, 1 destroy Hyzante, and by doing so also 2 liberate the Roselle and three remove Roland, the only problem with Benedict's plan was it did all these things but without a plan after so instead the Roselle dying at the source they were free to die in the real world because they were still poor and had no structure
Overall after completing the game I am very satisfied, and they did nice things with the story, but although this is clearly meant to be a Tactics Ogre and FFT spiritual sequel, I just think these two are superior, if only for Matsuno's sensible world building and writing. I don't see any reason for not making the game slightly more open-ended with things like exploration to different spots and random battles, or the possibility to create generic characters of any desired class that can be customized at will. Even when it comes to the golden route, the ending feels unsatisfying and there isn't much closure or development with most characters. Even an almost 30 years old game like Tactics Ogre had more. The one thing they had over Tactics Ogre is multiple routes that take you into wildly different directions, because in Tactics Ogre they all converge into one path. But overall, Tactics Ogre is still the undisputed king of the genre after all this time. Often imitated, never equaled. Triangle Strategy is more like a visual novel with sporadic battles.
@@DeltaMcKnight Tactics Ogre was remastered for PSP. Overall I still prefer the original game because the game became too easy and I didn't like what they did to the class progression system. Triangle Strategy is clearly meant to be a spiritual sequel to Tactics Ogre, because it had a considerable impact and popularity in Japan that FFT didn't have.
I always felt Idore rejecting Seranoa's offer wasn't because he hated him but because as an old man and knowing how there will be people continuing to worship him as a martyr and wanted to die alone and let the goddess decide the fate of the man and his friends.
Im sure he hated Serenoa, because his ideals are the opposite of what he believes and can be possibly a better path and pure, while his was perfected in his way to the point he will not accept any other way believing humans are greedy and corrupt also him having the power to silence anyone in his path also becoming god himself, instead of accepting Serenoas future he rather die with his ideals and pride. The Hyzantz are the reason why the nations are constantly at war. His religion didnt last long after thet found out salt was everywhere and the goddess is fake
I always suspected Idore was just speaking for the Hirophant. It's ment that only he can but I always just felt he was doing his own stuff and using the goddess as a shield to hide behind. After all if you choose to free the Roselle from the source in I guess what's considered a bad ending you see how they revere and fear her...and she's literally just a statue.
Do you know why your wedding is in the garden? Mine was in the house Wolffort, i don't know if its random or if it has a thing to do with the convictions.
Was easy mode + max lvl + upgrades, im sure in normal it will still do some damage but i figured with lower def debuff and focus on him should do it. Assassin is OP
@@DeltaMcKnight I saw. Protect rolland (without settings off fire traps) go ahead with illegal salt trade, defend Roselle.. return to wolfort and finding a purple key object during exploration to avoid a game over.. then choose there must be another way
Which is why they choose this multi story route lol. 60 buck but 5 days 8 hour average play a day for one playthrough is not worth for that but with multi it is worth.
@@12exstar kinda dissapointed just like FF15 when the bad empire's end is so simple, i want aefrost to be destroyed by my hand, and the archduke should be the final boss.

"my steps shall never waver... Death from above!" is smooth af
Just finished my first playthrough. Going to go for golden route on my second run

3:55 Anna stronger than demigod.
She got the final blow on my playthrough, would not have it any other way.
This gameplay reminds me of the 3DS title, Project X Zone.
Which OST tracks are played in this final battle?
look at all those lovely numbers..some tweaking with decimal and most of the automatons were wiped out in 3 blasts of hp4 even in Hard.
thank you for uploading the golden ending!! would you be able to do roland's too? if not, that's totally fine! i just cant find it anywhere on yt lol
I got the Frederica ending on my first run... I just couldn't allow the Rosella to be enslaved.

Do you know why your wedding is in the garden? Mine was in the house Wolffort, i don't know if its random or if it has a thing to do with the convictions.
Huh didnt know that, maybe when you attack the castle depends where u place the bomb
I was laying in bed and it fking hit me. Ours was able to be held in house Wolffort because WE NEVER SET THE TOWN ABLAZE!
@@brennanlow2336 for real wow choices in this game bro
Is level 50 the reccommended level for this boss on your first playthrough? I plan on going for this route first, so I am genuinely curious.
Not really is pretty steady.
its 33 on NG
Huh I noticed that during the golden ending the wedding either takes place in the Crown city castle or Castle Wolfort, why’s that I wonder?
Base on other comments i saw they say they didnt burn down their town, for my case i burnt mine fighting the hyzantz
@@DeltaMcKnight Ahh that makes sense.
How do you get maxwell?
Maxwell requires a specific amount of convictions to activate him to join your party, reddit guide has the answer.
wow that seems really easy for a final boss
maybe bc you’re high leveled but that didn’t seem too hard
Was easy mode + max lvl + upgrades, im sure in normal it will still do some damage but i figured with lower def debuff and focus on him should do it. Assassin is OP
Lo jugó en facil we
En dificil el Oraculo te mata de 1 golpe
It’s clearly easy mode, you can tell if you actually played the game.
@@sharpshooterxigbar5713 sorry, i’ve never played the game
I did this on a hard difficulty fresh save and still found it pretty easy. Just rush the boss.
Fam idk if I really do suck but this bastard took me 2 hours to kill literally wasted time killing those puppets
I still feel like the Benedict is the best.
Lmao when you skip the end credits.
Yea already saw it nothing special so just skip lol. Not gonna drag extra 30 minutes
How is this route unlocked
Look up the guide on Reddit
@@tiger8154 I already did after asking this
Reddit can guide you better than i can lol, i went there after i finished my first playthrough they will provide a chart to tell you how.
@@DeltaMcKnight I saw. Protect rolland (without settings off fire traps) go ahead with illegal salt trade, defend Roselle.. return to wolfort and finding a purple key object during exploration to avoid a game over.. then choose there must be another way
@@bradDark6941 not purple key but is a key item during the protect the roselle chapter.
Lol u skipped the credits, so u missed a small scene
Hmm? Small scene?
wtf is this damage? very easy?
Imagine playing on easy mode
Your looking at it :) finished my first playthrough on normal which was Frederica route, decided to speed run NG+ and unlock the golden route.
Game is too short. A little bit dissapointed. How can it be ending with just lv3x -_-
The game encourages NG+, with levels scaling pretty perfectly onwards from 3x.
Which is why they choose this multi story route lol. 60 buck but 5 days 8 hour average play a day for one playthrough is not worth for that but with multi it is worth.
@@brennanlow2336 i hope it will have a deep ending not just like that
@@12exstar kinda dissapointed just like FF15 when the bad empire's end is so simple, i want aefrost to be destroyed by my hand, and the archduke should be the final boss.
