I started with the 2013 reboot game. I saw it was made by the studio that made the recent Deus Ex games and it was on sale so I figured I would try it. Sure enough I really enjoyed it and its sequel. Which is why I'm sad that I can't enjoy this one due to what they are doing with Lara's character. Did I miss something? What are they doing with her? Is it just the more muscular look? No, it's the whole them making her do things that in those moments make her closer to a villain than hero that will be happening in this game.

Ah I see...well she is on a character journey towards becoming "The Tomb Raider" so I expect a bumpy road (she wasn't a saint in the previous two games). I'll have to see when I play it whether the choices they made bother me or not.

I was disappointed by the brief gameplay footage they showed. It actually looks worse than Rise, both visuals and animations. Switching studios was a mistake.

The studio that developed the previous 2 is busy making an Avengers game. I agree that the in game character models look a tad inferior, but not enough for me to really have much of a problem with it. If graphics are more of a big deal for some, I can understand them being disappointed. As long as I still like the story and characterization I am good.

I hope to start with most of the skills Lara already has over the last two games, I don't want known skills blocked off by levels / story progression. Throw me the challenges, I don't mind since I really enjoyed the combat and traversing in the rebooted series. I don't think I can go back to the old series much as they hold fond memories. I like the old Lara but I like the new Lara more because the development from a newbie to a more seasoned adventurer is shown and goes along a practical path, not something pulled out of a hat. Looking at her physique, I've to wonder where she had been. You don't get those triceps from sitting around.

Nani? A lost civilization that's been hidden away from the outside world. Since they don't seem frightened by Lara, I guess they are aware of the outside world but chose to continue the way they did. ... should be interesting to hear the native language. add atmosphere, no? 50 + days to go!

Seeing that video, makes me wish I had a PS 4 to play this game. Alas, I'm going to have to be content with video's on youtube. Though I'm really tempted to get one just for the last 2 games alone. Hmh I have to think about this. Pretty much dropped console games since the ending of PS 3 era.

New game just looks like more of the same, which isn't a bad thing tbh just hope collectibles been toned down Same...I thought Rise was ok, but the story was lacking for me....the first one was a bit better.....Rise had stunning visuals tho and super smooth gameplay. I'm not a fan of openworld tho...well Rise had these "hubs" where you can do side-missions and in the very first big open hub that had NPC's in it, i did ALL of the side-missions which were challenging and interesting, but when i came into the next open hub with side-missions and things the NPC's wanted me to do there?...i just couldn't be bothered...i just stayed on the main story path. I understand that because of what Tomb Raider is in general, the game really should be open world and i like that the game gives you the options for side missions....I'm still looking forward to this one tho....I feel these newly rebooted games are far better than the old originals....it'll be pretty hard to go back and play lara with her awkward/stiff controls.....

I was just watching that video yesterday. I'm excited about Shadow, to have Lara and Jonah back, but this was too reminiscent of Rise to me. The facial animations weren't so good either, though admittedly they weren't cutscenes. I'm just....not very impressed, which shocks me as I love Deus Ex and was hyped for Eidos taking over the franchise. I hope they put enough fresh content in to differentiate it from the previous 2 games and not just fall back on collectables.

Outside of that, the game looks good.

Looking at her physique, I've to wonder where she had been. You don't get those triceps from sitting around. Tons of rock climbing (aka the last two games) will do that to ya.

So i just need to start rockclimbing, tomb raiding, murdering, plundering and zip-lining, then I too can look like Lara? Neat. Second thoughts it sounds like a lot of work.

It's not a proper workout unless Arcadia's bloodlust is also satisfied.

The devs of the new TR games really do know what part of Lara's model rendering need the most focus and effort.
