FuRyu has released a gameplay video for The Alliance Alive, showing the game’s Talents system. Talents are abilities that characters can learn for different strategies and playstyles. They require points to learn, which are acquired by all characters by winning battles. A few of these talents include:
– “Continue the Fight Ability” – restores 1 SP per turn
– “Scouting Skill” – decreases enemy awareness
– “Negotiations and Bargaining” – decreases shop costs by 25%
