soo awesome .-.

kind of sucks that its fully free aim im really bad at it and have died like 12 times to wolves because i coudlnt kill them fast enough

The amount of work put into the ancient tribe its plausible it was real almost .-.

the art direction so detailed

does any one else have this game / beated it or plan to get it ?

zip lining is fun

i loved useing the bow and rarely used the assault rifle was too inaccurate although was really effective against the storm guards

those death animations were really hard to watch at times

[SPOILER="END GAME SPOILERS"]so Lara doesn't gain her iconic double pistols until she steals them mid combat off of Mathias

that final tomb was soo awesome though the waves of enemies at top floor did make me feel like I was going to fail to reach sam in time

also Alex's death made me sad but Whitman's made me happy .-.

and holy crap the sun queen statue coming to life D: 2spooky4me

[/SPOILER]

I can't wait for the next one but I'll probably wait till its $5.00 - $10.00 due to how short this one was :c I've had it for 3-4 days

Tomb Raider is fun until the halfway point.
At that point I think that's where they rushed the game.
Lara's character fully developed and she went from an insecure girl who doubted herself to a homicidal maniac who would scream how she was going to kill the enemies which is an awkward transition.

Gameplay got repetitive and the tombs were pretty easy and you only experience a few tombs throughout the game. Overall an average game due to the second half being incredibly boring from a story and gameplay perspective.

it doesn't feel rushed to me

by the time you get to this point you end up killing over 100 people and animals going through hell and back again

to me its completely reasonable that by this point that Lara is finally broken by the Island and would want all the inhabitants dead and she has the means to do it too

She an insecure girl who doubts herself and constantly has to motivate herself by saying "Okay Lara, you can do this", by the end of the game she's screaming "I'm going to kill you all you bastards!" there's a difference between being confident and being a homicidal maniac

She does not want the inhabitants dead, she wants to leave the island.
