Yeah dude, I saw a streamer playing and it scared the shit out of me.

 

Let's just say when you fuck up the platforming, Lara doesn't have a good time.

Not gonna lie, I wasn't interested at all in Tomb Raider until I saw the brutality.

 

Then I was like "Hey, at least they're trying something new"

 

Still downloading it with my crappy internet speed, but I'm excited to give it a try.

I remember playing the original tomb raider on my playstation. It was okay, but not good enough to get me interested when they released the second one(or however many that followed since). This looks awesome though.


First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me-- and there was no one left to speak for me.

I was interested when it was first announced, but I've stopped caring now. It looks good, but that's about it.

Played it, I'm at about 60%. It's amazing and looks amazing. Gave me the Skyrim feeling all over again.

I was curious about that, too. It seems every game has to tack-on multiplayer nowadays.

 

When it works well, it's  a pleasant surprise [Ass Creed], but I can't help but feel they will always be trumped by games that /focus/ on the multiplayer.

 

From what I've seen of Tomb Raider, I can imagine the mp being pretty interesting.

The modes are different to what you'd usually find, which is something I like. There's 2 kill modes, FFA and TDM. Pretty obvious what those are. Then you have Cry For Help, where one team has to collect batteries and hold positions while the other team tries to kill them, and Rescue, where one team has to collect medkits while the other tries to kill them. It alternates between rounds, so yeah. In Rescue the ones collecting medkits can only be killed with an execution, which is done once they get downed. It's really fun xD

 

Also, me + bow = fuck people

Lara's voice and accent are indeed sexy as hell. I can confirm.

I got my hands on this game a few weeks ago.

It is definitely worth a look for those of you that are interested.

It isn't a super long game, but it has enough stuff going on to keep you occupied for a handful of hours.

Also, play it on the hardest difficulty, it isn't the sort of gamer that you nancy your way through, it loses a lot on easier difficulties.


It is perfectly acceptable to fear and admire a being you could not possibly understand.
