Tomb Raider

the game is simply wonderful! I just feel sorry for some of the characters (such as Alex )

Graphics: The graphics are just super! (the plot is more important than the graphics, remember this, and if you are a “graphic wanker”: forget these words)

Plot: pretty good

Requirements: I could even run it on my grandmother’s PC! (at least on minimal settings, but I could. Her PC is from 2005-2006! think about this)

I recommend

The reboot of the series is amazing and I'm in awe as I watch an unprepared Lara struggle with the challenges that literally fall on her head. There is only one desire in my head and heart - to help the poor girl overcome difficulties. It is already obvious that this is the best Tomb Raider since the fifth part. Of course, it was not without its drawbacks: Batman: Arkham City belongs to the type of game that I am ready to give 10 points with a pure soul, but Tomb Raider clearly falls into a lower category. I'll explain the reason when I get to the end, because it's still a little early to talk about the game in an informed manner.

The game is mostly beautiful. Even in 2020, it doesn’t look bad, the plot is not complicated, but intriguing, the riddles are not boring, the design of the locations can be called well-designed and not boring.

The only thing that infuriates me is the popular interactive cutscenes at that time (among game designers. Personally, I always hated them.)

A reboot of the beloved curvy seeker of various antiquities, a lover of short shorts and heavy pistols in fragile girlish hands.

We're talking about Tomb Raider.

The reboot turned out to be very large-scale. All that remains of the classic concept is the name and, at times, locations. Everything else was comprehended, thought out and rewritten.

We are sent back to the origins of the formation of a favorite image, at the moment of the beginning of the first adventure. An innocent girl, a shipwreck, the first promenades along steep cliffs and ill-wishers with automatic weapons.

Lara herself became as “close to reality” as possible, i.e. There is no trace left of the appearance of a female cowboy; before us is yesterday’s student, with her fears, a little awkward and, give or take, average.

I’ll say right away that I haven’t played the original Tomb Raider series, so I will evaluate the game as an independent project. Well, this game caused a storm of emotions during the passage, it was interesting and pleasant to play. The constant tension during firefights and the peculiarities of the combat zone surrounding you force you not just to shoot at dummies, but to think and improvise how to kill all opponents much more effectively, spending much less ammo. We use weapons in the game almost always, and not only during shootouts with opponents, but also while exploring the world. Although the world seems open, in fact these are separate locations, but the impression of the scale of these locations is very pleasant. The tombstones deserve special attention. They allow you to take a … Read full
