Though if you have a lesser strength for strategy and most just care about the fights you can still have a storyline and different endings depending on how you do, for when they are multiple choice there is still a chance to follow the best path by educated guesses. The best fighters tend to be led by a strategist otherwise the battles are chaos. There are multiple choice questions you have to answer that will greatly effect the narrative – in some cases even more than the results of your last fight. This makes this game family friendly though, with the toughness of the game’s AI you want to watch that all of your party don’t go down for group nap time like in kindergarten. There isn’t anything wrong with that unless you really love your gore, thinking about it traditionally strategy games are usually not very gore intensive if it shows any at all. Everyone just looks like they take a nice comfortable nap. That does bring up an interesting point, the enemies may fall before you but don’t expect a severed head rolling around while a bloody neck stump spurts gore.

The real key is in rotating your fighters so you can find which skills best match your play style to keep your group from becoming a bloody smear.

Different characters have different skills even if they look alike though some classes seem to have one special skill that they share like “poison tipped” weapons.
#The banner saga 1 best ending how to
The Banner Saga 3 is, at its heart, a turn based square movement strategy game where you have to figure out how to best use your team while at the same time improving the gear and rotating the team so that you get the maximum amount of character leveling. I had the pleasure of reviewing the first game but my finances were tight when the second one came along so I don’t have it. That is something that The Banner Saga does that few other games do – if you manage to keep a character alive in the first game it will be playable in the next game, actually wherever you got your characters to in story and condition all gets played off of in the next game. That is what pulled me in on the first game and had me coming back for more trying to improve my game especially once I heard the save file will be used for the next part of the saga. The scenery in the games are terrific and the characters are flushed out not just by their stories but how they look in the old Hobbit cartoons. The Banner Saga has always embraced a visual style similar to the cartoons of Ray Bakshi.
