I recently replayed all of the Tomb Raider series and I think this tomb is objectively the worst one in the entire series.

>Get a map translating Hieroglyphics
>It's not even relevant or useful
>The answer to each dungeon requires you to unlock one of the rooms and use the Binoculars at the ceiling and to write down the arbitrary sequence each one lists
>They don't even translate to words. It's just a random set of Glyphs

Might post some more old Lara if that new Lara autist stays out of the thread

I'd raid teenage Lara's tombs.

The dagger doesn't make you immortal. It just turns you into a Dragon when you stab yourself in the heart with it.

Personally i thought the level design in 3 was amazing, but as far as exposition of the story goes there is literally none and it hurts it pretty badly in my opinion, especially compared to 4 which managed to still have great level design but also a well told story. The dialogue in 3 is downright retarded

>they're fun, but extremely primitive.

only the graphical aspect, because the content itself is much more meaty than Uncharted or other clone ever offered.

>controls are almost unbearable by todays standards.

I can imagine they are for someone who didn't grow up playing them, tank controls are always very polarizing in this aspect.

> they require pixel-perfect precision

Nothing wrong with that, to be honest, and with time you get the feel of those jumps very easily.

>and any tiny mistake on your part can and WILL get you killed hundreds of times

Now you are just exaggerating.

>>377627091
this part pissed me off because a running jump doesn't go far enough but if you jump and hold use it works even though that actually shortens your jump

i dont think the controls are bad, per se. just outdated. having to micro-manage your movement by stopping and slowly turning or strafing is annoying. The controls in the newer Tomb Raiders are infinitely better because it is straight-up uncharted now.

>>377627860
Next to none. It's been an entire year and he hasn't even finished the first level.

TR2 has like 14 levels overall with 4-5 different art palettes. Imagine him trying to do Venice or the Sunken Ship .

There's no micro management. It's just management. The levels are made of cubes and the digital movement and cube length run cycle are designed with it in mind. I think you perceive the controls as outdated or sluggish simply because you haven't learned them.

Uncharted feels better because there are magnet jumps and there's zero learning involved.

I mean, that's something you would notice within the first 5 minutes of playing, if you weren't retarded. Again, I have no real issues with it, I'm just glad we've evolved past that.

why the hell can't we purchase the TR1~3 DLC on Steam or GoG? I still have the TR1 expansion here on fucking CD from 2002 if I'm not mistaken, this data will eventually erode and I want to buy a legit digital copy.

TR2 is my favourite game of all. I'm trying to play through the PS1 TR games but I've been having problems with TR1. It keeps crashing whenever I press certain buttons, like taking my guns out or turning right. It always crashes after I press a button but I can play for about 10 minuites normally before a crash happens. I've gotten up to Palace Midas but I really want to get this fixed before trying to continue.

Is there a guide for how to get the game working properly on win10?

>Attends one of the best boarding schools in Scotland as a teenager where she was taught everything from archery, gymnastics and sharpshooting and was the best at it.
>On top of building her career as a brilliant archaeologist going around the world to even places like Cambodia with Werner, she had time to enroll in one of the best universities in Switzerland.

>Being a child aristocrat, she gets married off to a very rich and handsome young noble. Lo' behold, faggot dies in a plane crash. Lara is given all his wealth.
>Decides aristocracy is boring and runs off to have a life of adventuring. Does the fucking impossible, not only is she doing archaeology stuff but she's discovering shit nobody in their wildest dreams could even conceive. Finds Big Foot, finds the Ark of the Covenant, and tombs for civilizations humanity never thought existed.

>>377633276
oh you don't really have to know the story, considering the game handily kills you by turning into a gold statue once you step on a hand. The most infuriating thing is, the "climb onto hand" and "use the inventory item" are the same button, and the game has weird fucking interpretation of your intentions, thus killing you several times before it registers the desired action.

Primary reason was they were pumping them out annually. Tomb Raider 1 was a big hit because it was completely new.

Tomb Raider 2 came out and added to the formula. But by the time Tomb Raider 4 + Chronicles came out they were just completely out of ideas. The games were also very dated as the PS2 was starting to come out around 2000.

I just realized, we never find out what happens to prime Lara. At the end of Angel of Darkness she just kind of walks off screen, and that's that.

>>377638352
I read the 3 game arc that they planned for Lara starting with Angel of Darkness.

Essentially Lara becomes a drug addict and burns her mansion down and becomes homeless. Kurt becomes more and more then main character as he hunts down the Nephalim.

Eventually he gets Lara back on her feet and she continues adventuring.

Theres more too it but it was so shit I'm glad they canned that studio.

For what purpose. Also for some reason I can barely remember anything at all about AoD, it must have been really unmemorable. I remember fistfighting some guy for a golden watch or something, people with 6 toes, maybe a sort of underground arena with spooky skeletons? And some lab area with..some monsters inside tubes. Yet the other games I can remember pretty much all levels even though I played them before AoD.

>>377638682
Angel of Darkness with that Kurt character just seems like bad Tomb Raider romance fan-fiction.

I mean I don't despise Angel of Darkness, but wow, am I happy that we didn't get those sequels.

>>377639207
yeah the fact that she's british makes me just a little bit harder

>>377638938
no. Legend was first reboot and TR2013 the second

>>377638993
I'm just picking up bits and pieces from all the interviews I read on it.

It's pretty interesting how badly the game production was. Apparently none of the developers were talking to each other and just made their levels on their own.

Its apparent when you play the game because Lara's outfit just randomly changes as you go through doors. The game is also basically in Alpha.

>>377638938
I think it was supposed to be canon continuation but it wasn't by the same guys so you can choose to ignore it. Lara died (or survived but it's not explicitly shown), people got sad and told stories about her, that's how her saga ends.

>>377639343
Legend isn't a reboot. It even includes the same nigger in your ear as in the New York episode of Chronicles.

>>377639220
>>377639265
THEY'RE NOT CANON
Those were were books that weren't authored by anyone from Core Design.

It's the same if you gave enough money to Crystal to make your own novel about how nuLara decides to get a sex change and gets fat on strawberries, and then dies from water intoxication. It's nonsensical bullshit that has nothing to do with the games.

Not really, they took Tomb Raider Anniversary Edition Lara as a foundation, which had it's foundation in AOD Lara.

A Shaman brought her back from the death in Egypt. It's also suppose to explain her new Emo mode.

>But Heath-Smith wasn’t too bothered about Lara dying. Nor, when the game was released in October 1999, was anybody else.

Am I the only who does this? A lot of them I'll try going back and playing some more, but get bored immediately and end up just running around in circles until I quit.

>>377642096
Did you even do the tutorial?

It's grid-based and easy as fuck. For a short jump, walk up to the ledge (you can't fall while walking) and jump. For a long jump, walk up to the ledge, then hop back once, then run and hit the jump button at any time during that run, and she'll automatically jump once she reaches the ledge (or the end of the square she's on).

I think it was a good death, they should have left it alone instead of making a shitty game that dangles like a fifth wheel after her story should've ended.

Once you git gud too, you don't need to do any adjustments to jump too.
Honestly, I think a lot of people that complain about the controls are too used to games holding their hands and magnetic ledges that never allow them to miss. Kind of reminds me of my friend.

No. I just found pic related last year. Haven't played the sequel yet, though. I'm now in love with Laura Bailey's voice.

>>377642358
ofc i always go to lara's house first before starting a new game wtf you think im a savage?. i completely understand how the controls work, i just think there is some nuance to them.

NOLF with Cate Archer.

>>377643406
Hard to say, they were all very good and very different. I think TR3 might have the most interesting and challenging levels.

>>377643675
I don't remember Cate being flamboyant with her sexuality. She was just a female spy who shot people.

Does RotTR actually have a big head mode?

>>377643924
Yeah. I feel like they were starting to shit their pants at the low sales, and figured throwing in gimmicky shit like that would boost sales a little. Same for shoehorning in the classic TR skins.

I played the shit out of the first one but never got around to playing the second one. Should really go back to it someday.

Does it run fine on your PC? Every time I'd play it, my GPU temp would keep increasing without stopping. It got to the point it was getting close to 90 degrees celsius, and still getting warmer...and then I'd get massive lag for some reason, even when the GPU was still fairly cool.

The setup and context are often quite important in written erotica. If I just wanted fucking, I'd watch a video. People go to erotica for the complex fantasy scenarios as well as the sex. In fact, the scenario is probably *more* important. What I don't like, though, is when there's a ton of opening text that doesn't have anything to do with the sex at all, like if it's a story where a college guy gets seduced into being an older woman's live-in sex slave but there are several pages about the guy's classes and job before the older woman even appears in the story.

>>377634168
I liked the wonky remake Lara that came with Legend. Never cared for reboot Lara that came with 2013.

>>377644537
She looks better in her costume from the second imo

This thread makes me want to reinstall Tranniversary, but it's just gonna make me sad because I know the other games aren't getting this treatment.
Core couldn't into controls.
CD can't into level design.
TRA was the one game that combined the best aspects of both studios.

I get the strong feeling they were aiming to remake Tomb Raider 2

There are several comments about the Dagger of Xian in her mansion and across the game. But Anniversary didn't sell well enough.

>>377646496
Remasters and remakes never sell well. They make a profit but ultimately people don't want to buy an updated version of a game they already played.

Also Core fags refused to touch anything with Crystal's engine and control scheme.

Everything about this is true, but even so, that is how it played out. The Lara the fans know and love is a complete cow tits mcgee.

>>377643195
>>377646841
This implies that they accidentally made Lara a cow tits, and weren't aware of it.
They were and thought it was hilarious.

Toby just was too shy to admit about his Lara's imagery.

accidental or not, i'm glad she ended up looking all hot and busty.

Could that lack of sales be in any way related to the fact that it was an Xbone exclusive for a while? Then when it was finally released on PS4 everyone already had the Steam version or stopped caring. I think ROTR's release was just mishandled.
