Tomb Raider Thread

enjoyed the game a lot but its not tomb raider as i know it, 1 and 2 were epic games, theres not enough of the old games in there for me like the timed puzzles, block puzzles, underwater swimming, precision jumping, dual pistols!! huge level design, can go on and on.
 
Played an hour of the game after picking it up cheapish, and I feel like stopping tbh. Unfailable QTEs are the very worst in game design....I mean, how could anyone think this was fun?

Press E...Oh, you didn't press E, Game Over, we'll do it again and again until you do it how we tell you to....yawn. You can't fail them, the game might as well do it for you!....It doesn't add immersion, it removes it.
 
There are couple of really annoying QTEs at the start of the game (first couple of hours or so), after that there aren't that many .

Get past them and it should be ok from there on :p
 
Yeah the first two hours were rubbish imo, too many QTE's as said above. Glad I persevered though because once you get past them it really is a great game.

Oh and make sure you play it on hard as its far too easy on the other settings
 
anyone else seeing flashing black lines during the eidos / crystal dynamics intro on launch of the game right before u get to the main menus ?

i removed any OCs that i have and its still there :confused:
 
Personally think it's more cinematic than actual gameplay - the puzzles are nigh on non-existent. For me it's a very average game - I certainly preferred the previous puzzle based games.

A real shame all the DLC was Multiplayer based and I haven't even touched it. A DLC pack of larger tombs with good puzzles would have made me buy it. There were a few that made me stop and look but nothing too great or taxing.
 
just finished the game it was good but i found the puzzles very easy.
some great positioning /hiding of the items for the challenges had to use google to find the last few
the last scene where she picks up the 2 pistols put a smile on my face :D
 
This game is abysmal. Nothing like the original tomb raiders. I used to enjoy lining up jumps, worrying that I might not make them. This time you just get sucked onto the ledge if you get even close to it, it all feels a bit airy-fairy really.

Garbage.

I have to say, going by this thread and others elsewhere you are very much in the minority. Yes there could have been more tomb raiding but it was an origin story, more about how she became the Tomb Raider. I'm sure the sequel will be based around more exploration and puzzles.

Has there been any word on whether this has been successful enough to warrant a sequel?
