History YMMV / TriangleStrategy

** "Unwavering Spear -Roland’s Battle", a particularly somber piece that plays when Roland fights against Patriatte during chapter XV in the middle of the destroyed capital (be it from the previous assault or from the destroyed dam), and also if you go for the Liberty route in chapter XVII, in which both the piano and the organ (with the brass instruments kicking in later, with the organ staying the main instrument heard) take central stage to highlight how dire the circumstances are (as this event and the ones that follow ultimately shatter Roland) and the extent of Patriatte’s depravity.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Roland is the most polarizing of the main characters, largely because of the debate about if his character is meant to be viewed as flawed, or is just badly written. On one hand, some find Roland to be extremely unlikable, because a lot of his choices, and the reason for them, come across as badly written and hard to accept from some, even more than Benedict's intentionally extreme choices, since his route has some questionable reasons for why he would do the things he does. On the other hand, some like that Roland is a flawed person who doesn't make the right choices at times, since it makes him interesting without making him outright unlikable, and that he is intentionally not perfect given his insecurities are present from early in the game. While both Benedict and Frederica have some division in terms of their characterization, neither reach the same levels as Roland.

* BestLevelEver: [[spoiler:Chapter 18 of the Conviction Route is this to a T: Serenoa finally decides ScrewDestiny and rejects the notion that he has to alienate any of his loved ones, instead performing one hell of a risky gambit to both subvert Gustadolph and destroy Hyzante, while also freeing the Roselle in the process. What follows is a three-pronged power play where you, as the player, send your three main generals (Benedict, Roland, and Frederica) as well as every one of your heroes (divvied up between the generals leading them) to concurrently defend the Wolffort demense, get Aesfrosti aid from Svarog, and incite a Rosellan rebellion. The battles are suitably climactic and tense, and even have bonus [[EasterEgg Easter Eggs]] of multiple mid-battle confrontations between significantly related characters depending on who goes with each general [[note]](Archibald/Milo VS. Kamsell, Geela/Avlora/Cordelia/Groma/Flanagan/Maxwell/Hossabara VS. Gustadolph, and Milo/Avlora VS. Exharme)[[/note]]. It's a great way to let your entire army shine in a climactic turn of events - and they ''will'' all get usage in these fights.]]

** Cordelia has been described as 'the fandom's darling' since day one, given her unique and cute voice, her take on the PrincessClassic trope revolving around her playing the political game to win back as much of Glenbrook as she could with the power of politics, and her close relationship with Avlora. She's also considered to be second only to Quahaug in terms of being the most powerful unit in the game, having WhiteMagic that can easily turn the tide of any battle. Some fans think [[spoiler:she should have never abdicated the throne at all to Roland, out of the belief she honestly made a better ruler than he did.]]

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Archibald is greatly appreciated for being perhaps the best and most versatile recruitable archer — including a OneHitKill ability — having no downsides besides Movement (which can be rectified later), and just being an all-around CoolOldGuy who can keep up with the rest of the cast.

* BreatherLevel: Chapter VIII, assuming you [[spoiler:don't trust the offer from Telliore]], if you chose to save Roland in VII. It comes directly after a difficult fight against Avlora, who can give you a bad time despite being at an elevation disadvantage and having a nasty enemy force to contend with; in contrast, [[spoiler:House Telliore's]] army is smaller, less damaging and attacks you in favourable terrain of Wolffort's choosing. The boss, Rufus can definitely hit hard and tanks most damage not unlike Avlora, but with just one notably strong unit to defeat (as opposed to a rout map of tougher soldiers) this makes for an easier overall fight… Its [[ThatOneLevel counterpart map]] is notably tougher.

** Similarly, while the game tries to treat [[spoiler: Frederica's Chapter XVII conviction as being utterly ridiculous and even selfish and delusional, it's very easy to sympathize with Frederica. The game tries very hard to make the player feel Frederica's desire to be naught but a childish fool's errand, with some characters being hard to convince to side with her, and some will ever refuse to assist at all if you try. The issue is that, by all accounts, Frederica wanting to help her people is a noble goal that is understandable, while nobody else tries to remotely address the issue. So despite the game trying to call the player out for seemingly abandoning everything and everyone else, justice for the Roselle by liberating them, then [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere fleeing the continent altogether]], Frederica comes out looking very sympathetic for her desires, especially when she achieves it, but it comes as a personal loss in the end.]]
