The prologue was great, but things went downhill REAL fuckin' quick after I was dumped in a endlessly similar environment where everything looks exactly the same no matter which way you turn and suddenly a linear story driven game was unnecessarily made into an open world title. The first game was perfect. Why'd you fuck with it?

Just when I felt the story was picking up and had a few more hours left - BOOM - final boss fight. At least I got the 20th Anniversary edition with PS Plus.
I'm also not quite sure how I feel about the semi-open world.

When the first in the triogloy was released, I remember seeing online "they must hate Lara due to
Saying that, the theme of hating Lara must have carried over to this. I don't recall Nathan receiving this much pain. 🙃

I'm halfway through I think. I'm enjoying it a lot, it's really a lot of fun. I love that there's a lot of exploration to do and physical puzzles to figure out. The different journals scattered throughout are a nice way to flesh out the lore of this particular story.

A few hours in and it seems like it's a fun game at the core and looks gorgeous, but I just have an incredibly hard time giving a shit about Lara's motivations. The first game's premise of being stranded on a strange island works, but this is looking a lot like "go chase arbitrary MacGuffin X."

I know a lot of people consider this to be the best of the trilogy, but I'm honestly having a hard time getting into it on the same level as the first one. I thought the first hit hard and fast and was really compelling. This one feels like it doesn't know what it wants to be--an open area RPG …

I thought the first hit hard and fast and was really compelling. This one feels like it doesn't know what it wants to be--an open area RPG (optional quests??), a narrative driven action game, or a collectathon.
I like the story so far; I guess it's the pacing that is driving me nuts. I could be to blame for that, though, will my compulsive need to hunt for shiny things! :)

Finished. Had a great time with this. That Karen O track was a pleasant surprise at the end. Will definitely hop back in at some point for Blood Ties, but am currently ill and therefore won't be using VR anytime soon. Now I really want to play Shadow.

Just got to the flooded archives and this game has won me over completely. The combat is surprisingly satisfying. I love how scrappy it feels, scampering around the battlefield avoiding bullets while trying to turn corpses into makeshift poisonous gas bombs. Of course, this is kind of pointless since the Baba Yaga arrows are far more effective, but that won't …

Oh, and all the optional tombs so far have been fantastic.

Playing through Rise of the Tomb Raider. Beat the original reboot of Tomb Raider back in 2013 and loved it. This one is shaping up to be even better. If you enjoy a great story, puzzles, upgrading weapons & abilities, FPS mechanics against enemies, intense action with some beautiful scenery, you can't skip this one.

7/10. I enjoyed it, it seemed like about halfway though the game, the vibe was that it was about to end soon, so that kind of made it feel like it dragged on for me, I was rushing through it anyway so I can play Red Dead 2 tomorrow with an open mind. Very solid game, I liked the first …
