    I have never seen a channel able to make the claim that practically every one of its videos has at least one comment pointing out how underrated it is.
    I encourage you to perservere, Syr. Yours is worthy stuff and frankly, UA-cam is undeserving of it.

    This was my first 3D game. We went from Sonic the Hedgehog to this. It's just impossible to convey what a quantum leap that was to someone who wasn't around at the time. There will never again be such a cataclysmic shift in the experience of gaming.

    Lara's home is one of the greatest tutorial stages

    The original tomb raider is very much still a fun one to return to, but boy it takes some time to get the feel for controls again. The freedom of perspective with the 3rd person view certainly takes a while to get used to after playing something like Gears of War that will snap the camera around for you.

    An era defining series - both it's stratospheric highs in the first 2 and a half games as it unlocked new discoveries and gameplay potentials, then later the limitations as the hardware and knowledge just wasn't ready for what was to come. Great video

    Been binging these today and i don't understand why this channel has so few followers. I guess people prefer to listen to others criticize things rather than praise them. Anyway, i have subbed and look forward to more.

    TR1 is my favourite game of all time. A classic.

    I've never played Tomb Raider, but I suppose Lara Croft is one of the most iconic female protagonists in video games for a reason... Or at least, I hope the reason is rooted in how good the original game was and not... well, you know.

    Did you already talk about what's so great about Chrono Trigger? I'd love to see that!

    A map system would kill this game. Less is more when it comes to game design.

    I'm pretty sure "Scion" is pronounced "Sai - on". Unless the game also-pronounced it Ski-on.
    Not that it really matters, because you're unlikely to ever use the term again. I'm actually mostly commenting for le algo.
    Also, when you remember that "tomb raider" is a synonym for "grave robber", it's pretty easy to see why Lara isn't exactly worried about the environment.

      The game does pronounce it ski-on
