    • @MyEternalReward
      @MyEternalReward 6 років тому +18

      Ah. This comment.
      Not only does a different person review different games, CoD OBJECTIVELY tries to change up its formula with every single game. Why does CoD get circle jerked about being the same game every year rather than Battlefield? CoD adds jet packs, hero-based abilities, goes back to WW2, changes how health and weapons work, creates a CS:GO mode with buy menus and one life modes, and yet Battlefield and many other games are content with a fresh coat of paint over the same game every year or two.
      Do you seriously think the three new Tomb Raider games are wildly different or try to innovate at all? Please. Lara has been climbing on white rocky walls and falling through rivers in the same set-pieces, using the same crafting mechanics and taking out enemies in the same ways for three games now.
      You can’t stick your thumbs in your ears and cry “COD SUCKS!” whenever a game you were looking forward to starts to get bad reviews. Sometimes games suck, bud. Get over yourself.

      Most of the complaints he has with this game can easily be attributed to Horizon Zero Dawn to the same degree or more. That game was egregious with bugs and stupid AI. Gets universal praise.
      That just means if a game is truly good and made with love, it will Rise above its flaws. (See what I did there?)

      @stellarhyme3 6 років тому +37

      Stephen Brown Zelda's fetch quest have always sucked. No one was praising Breath of the Wild for that, they praised it for everything else though. It was an exploration game that literally made you feel like an explorer. The Shrines in the game offered some of the best puzzles ever. The physics engine was top notch for an open world game. The traversal system can't be touched. Climb anything and go anywhere. There were numerous things people gave Breath of the Wild perfect scores for, side quest weren't mentioned because they have never been the strong suit of the series. Plus the game does everything else right and I played it for well over 300 hours and didn't see one glitch. You can't say that about 99.9 percent of the games that come out today. And to be honest, the Reviewer complained about more than fetch quests in this game. He complained about lack of dependability of some play mechanics. He complained about enemy NPC AI and how inconsistent line of sight detection was. He complained about the dated combat mechanic which hasn't evolved to counter updated enemy types. He complained about pacing and he complained about Lara being unlikable in this sequel as compared to the other games. All these things led to him giving the game a 6. He loved the tomb raiding aspects of the game but there was a lot more he didn't like than just fetch quests. At the end of the day, you have to form your own opinion. You like what you see then give it a go. If the things he dislikes about the game don't bother you as much then, by all means get the game.

      While it's not directly about payment or no payment, videogame reviewers are clearly biased one way or another. They are not professional journalists and their views can be easily skewed by press kits, marketing materials, promotional events, or the lack of all that. Add to this a potentially tight deadline and they get frustrated with it all, completely changing their attitude towards a game. It's not corruption or buying review scores but all these clearly have an effect on how reviewers approach a given production. Marketing and hype (or the relative lack of it) skews their judgment just as much as average consumers'.

    First you complained that the gameplay feels old and there aren’t enough new gameplay features
    Then you complained that the new vision system gives you more information and makes things too easy
    Then you complained about the fact that you can put mud on yourself now which makes things a little easier
    Then you complained that the new fear darts (the third new feature mentioned within a couple minutes) don’t make enemies kill one another every time because sometimes they miss and that doesn’t make things easier
    Then I paused it, disliked and left this comment and now I’m going to close the video altogether because within a few minutes I can already tell what a horrible review this will be.

      In terms of game development? It kinda is, it's a big chunk of a console's cycle.

The games are certainly similar, but 5 improved on everything its predecessor did in terms of gameplay.

    I don't think this review makes any sense. If the old mechanics were mostly the problem, how on earth did the 2015 release get a score of 9? With that logic, every game should have a lower score just because they used older mechanics LOL! Call of Duty, for instance lol!? I think video games are all about opinions and maybe he just got bored of the game or whatever, however, that doesn't mean it is a bad game!

      I agree. I’ve played 3 Assassin’s Creed games, 2 Uncharted games and the Tomb Raider trilogy, and his complaints are oretty much present in the entire genre. Also 90% of it has been fixed by patches and updates by now anyway. No, the AI and parkour controls aren’t perfect, but they aren’t nearly as bad as he makes them out to be. It’s the same thing we’ve come to expect after playing Uncharted and Assassin’s Creed. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is pretty damn good-I agree with IGN’s 9/10 score but with a caveat-if you don’t like semi-open world, you won’t like any of the TR reboot games. A lot of people complain about that but lots of people like it too.

    People complaining about the formula being too similar to the reboot and to Rise? As far as 3rd person action adventure games go, this rebooted series has been top notch. It’s only been 5 years since the first reboot...how much does a successful, critically acclaimed formula need to change at this point? They aren’t THAT old lol. Since the original series, TR has been rebooted and drastically changed several times already (and not always very successfully).
    I, for one, am glad that they have made several games with this formula and they have definitely improved upon each one visually and gameplay-wise. And honestly, regardless of whether people think it’s stale at this point, I have had more fun with Shadow than I did with the other 2. They listened to some of the criticism of the other games: made a less drab/boring location, increased the puzzles/tombs, decreased the repetitive guns blazing fire fights in favor of a more stealthy approach, more personable interactions, and actually gave Lara more of a personality and sense of humor, making her more well-rounded. I applaud the developers for continuing to improve upon what made the 2013 reboot successful in the first place.
    TLDR: This is an unfair score considering how well the others were received.

    While I agree with most of this review's point on the combat/AI, it's worth pointing out that you hardly spend any time actually in it. It's even less frequent/sparser than it was in RoTR. So I wouldn't worry too much about that aspect (the lack of combat does, however, make the focus on crafting/skill unlocking for it a bit strange, and a weak incentive to explore).

      Stewart Howard 5 games versus 3 isn’t comparable. Further, the older series controls aged poorly because the gaming industry evolved well past them while Core Design kept using them to maintain annual release. A game maintaining its control scheme for a series isn’t unusual anymore because game controls have largely been worked out to be playable. The TR controls are phenomenal and Lara plays very well. Classic Lara moved like a tank.

    ok as a huge fan of the series, I actually agree with most of the points you're making about the platforming and game design, but you're nitpicking too damn hard on some things. I love stealth games and I played this on the Hard difficulty (One with the Jungle) for everything. It was great. No survival instincts mean that you have to pay attention to enemies, their patrols, objects in the environments, etc. The game won't highlight ANYTHING for you. It was also fun to play through the exploration + puzzle difficulties on Hard, because it's that much more rewarding to discover stuff yourself instead of just relying on a yellow/red highlight for the game to point it out for you.
    Overall I enjoyed this game a lot. It's lengthy, it's got some great action setpieces, I love the added emphasis on stealth and exploration, the lore bits scattered in the collectibles are excellent, the environments are so gorgeous and incredibly detailed, the challenge tombs and crypts are amazing, the three major hub areas are awesome and full of life, and finally, the story is actually decent and gets you to care about the characters more than the previous games ever did. Not sure how you ended with a 6/10 after that glowing review, I'd say it's an 8.5/10 for sure.

    My review :) ifya interested....This game is utterly gorgeous I can't gush enough, the textures, the lighting, the shadows, the particulates in the air, the rain that splatters the screen, the detail is insane, (were in the jungles of South America this time around as opposed to the frozen tundra of rise, but if you compare the greenery of say the geothermal valley to this game it blows the socks off of it hands down, beautiful improvements) it's all lush and utterly immersive, it's captivating and scintillating eye candy galore, some points I'll stop playing and just stare at the scenary like it's a painting, I zoomed in on the ground I was standing on with the bow or the photographer mode in menu examining the bizarre amount of detail in every rock and leaf expecting it to blur at that zoom but no, I was totally hooked in the first 15 minutes, and by that time I already gave this game a 10, I mean it's a 10 on visuals alone, but same great mechanics with a couple clever additions on top of it, it starts with a great Terrantino style entrance, with blazing action on the brink of disaster, cut away and a callback to two days earlier, and the rust of the time between games immediately dissolved and I was back on the bike again, the water in game is absorbing, you almost feel wet when your in it, clever use of controller vibration with her faster strokes to add to the immersion, a lot of the game has full 360 underwater sequences, and they look and feel great, searching for air pockets avoiding piranhas, collecting resources, it's all a really well fleshed out callback to the original, stellar sound effects to boot is the icing for the visual treat this is, the guns and bow have a real punch to them and alongside everything is a subtle haunting and immersive soundtrack, all this with tremendously deep and nuanced voice work too, the relationship between Lara and Jona feels really organic and genuine this time around, and it was smart to focus in on these 2, it feels believable, and the game play of Lara's childhood was utterly engrossing, really takes you back to suddenly become a kid again on your childhood swingset, head full of imagination and unburdened possibilities with the horizon always on the brink, very clever show of Lara's childhood background inclinations, very reminiscent of her manor you can play through in the original, speaking of which you can play as the original polygon model of her, I mean it looks ridiculous, but a nice wink from the developers paying homage to the source material, but they gave Lara a blue top this time around more reminiscent of her in the origin days, a clever callback of days past nostalgia, really reminded me of the old games, especially with the jungle environment and jaguars, the jaguar scenes were utterly jaw dropping, totally flustered by those sequences, great throwback and wink to the fans and the new features were super cool too, including repelling and swinging, where you have to gauge the distance to jump and appropriate amount of slack on the rope, and the mountain climbing looks and feels naturally great, also you got mud mechanics, where Lara slathers herself in realistic looking mud, predator style, and when you hear her unsheathe her blade when an enemy is in kill distance, covered in mud eyes popping out behind the vines.... dude, so bad ass, and hence the greater focus on stealth, and the mud in game looks freakin amazing trudging through deep patches of it, seriously it's all these little details that make this enthralling and dare I say a masterpiece, and there is an upgrade in laras skill sets where you can for a sizable window of time warp to bullet time while aiming!!!! very helpful and slick in those super hairy situations, to aquire this there are focus plants in the wild or at merchants to purchase (*helpful sidenote - it has a bullet time meter which length can be upgraded in skill sets and once initiated the meter runs down on the use of the focus in general and a separate meter while aiming, once the general plant wears off there's a visual on screen cue, or in menu a color like clock meter that runs down if you want to check before, and wherever you left off with it while aiming and release you have to wait for it to refill full to use again or once it runs out or you get hit it also stops it and you can either let refill before you use it again,*** or (and here's the trick) immediately use another focus plant to refill the meter, keeping it slomo without skipping a beat, you'll thank me later... maybe, I had to figure that out on my own, you gotta be quick on your feet for the slomo, and usage is a little tricky, but no problem once you understand it, and my god blowing back those clamoring cave creatures slomo in those eye catching caverns with a shotgun,....just a blast,(pun not intended, but I'll go with it) Get your Max Payne on!!, Awesome, also to boot the cover mechanics along with the combat look and feel fluidly intuitive...I mean and there's so much to do on top of all this, and I know this is long winded but I have to refute the unconscionably negative reviewers out there, so I'll just run through and elaborate on some of the core gameplay elements and content on top of it for those perhaps unfamiliar, a lot of things have been carried over from the last installments, but it feels more fluid and enhanced, it's all very well done, and it really encourages free exploration, it's as close to open world as you can get, I mean you got the story campaign, which is well executed for the source material and region, but more subtle and in the background where the game play and environments are the real stars here, I've never been a fan of the stories of tomb raider but having it more subtle I preferred as its more about the journey of unfolding clues and archeological riddles rather than the destination, but between the main story and it's adrenaline inducing sequences, (those cave creatures and there echoing wails in the caves are spine tingling), to just exploring the jaw droppingly beautiful landscapes, to collecting resources or hunting wild animals, which you can use at the scattered base camps to upgrade weaponry and outfits (which are really great looking for the south American region and have their own benifits like allowing access to certain restricted temples or ability to carry more resources or prolong bullet time or move quieter, whatever your playing preference or visual style... .all well done, relevant and engrossing), or collecting hidden treasues, arifacts, architecture (which your still able to view and analyze 360 and by doing so uncover deeper secrets or realities behind them occsssionally which reveal the history and culture of the regions bringing a feeling of discovery and appreciation more to life), believable journals, fallen travelers backpacks which reveal map secrets and hidden treasures, analyzing religious structures, which sharpen your deciphering of monoliths which reveal secrets within a specific radius on the map with an associated environmental riddle that you have to seek out, or completing challege tasks like seeking out hidden treasure chests in piranha infested underwater area etc. etc. both of which garner more xp points that contribute to expanding Lara's skill sets at the base camps which are all helpful and gameplay enhancing thus even more incentivising, i mean all these great collaborating gameplay elements along with discovering and raiding tombs and crypts, filled with ancient puzzles of physics and death and wits which are gorgeous and practically on there own worth the buy, to perusing the vast and alive villages, specifically Paititi, it all feels credible and well fleshed out with tons of characters to talk to which look and sound great as well, and from some of them you can venture out on engrossing and fun sidemissions that they inquire of you that offer their own rewards in the the form of information or access to other merchants in town where you can buy items and trade resources, that upgrade equipment that give access to previously inaccessible tombs or areas, which absolutely encourages great replayability and exploration..... ugh, let me take a breath, it's just soo rich and we'll done, the best visuals in a game to date I'd say along with all these tremendously well fleshed out characters and intertwining gameplay elements..... this is the truest yet to the originals and this game is a must have, and I'm really baffled by the negative reviews that almost made me question my purchase, and that was being a fan of the series,.... hands down glorious game and just a well crafted blast, Peace out, and happy hunting ; )

    25th October, 1996 - I can still remember the jaw-dropping first moments of the original Tomb Raider on my SEGA Saturn. 25 years later, both game core & chatacter never gets old & everytime they reboot the series it only gets better. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an amazing adventure & a great final chapter on this gen series reboot.
    Played it both on PS4 & STADIA & recommend the STADIA version w/ a Chromecast Ultra 4K.

    Some cons seem fair but the reviewer is nit picky as hell, it gives the impression he was mad he had to review that game.

    Sooo, when I saw this GameSpot review I was like yeah sure, nice try, GameSpot must be high or something.

(along with Angry Joe) How could such a great series end up like this I don't know,

  • @iforgot87872
    @iforgot87872 4 роки тому +1

    I'd say somewhere in the 7's is fair. IGN's 9 is way to generous, but 6 seems a little harsh considering the solid puzzles and amazing environments. I'm surprised to see complaints about the jumping being too hard. If anything this game is crazy forgiving with the jumping, especially compared to the old ps1 era games.

    I respect this review, it matches the metacritic score. a lot of them are in thlow 70's and 60's.. even a 40 in there. people are just throwing their toys out of the pram cause they're not seeing what they wanted to see, probably were dumb enough to lock themselves in to a digital preorder and now have no choice but to delude themselves in to thinking this is a great game and gamespot are wrong

    • @Bloooo95
      @Bloooo95 6 років тому

      Nope. If you liked Rise, you’ll like Shadow. The combat is a bit different, though. The controls aren’t different, but it really rewards and encourages stealth.

    I loved the game but I agree with the review. The game has brilliant parts and it's doing so many things right. For these parts it definitely deserves higher score and people will love the experience. On the other hand the combat mechanics, platforming, conversation system, story telling needs to be polished or reworked.

    To anyone upset at this review -- you make me laugh. Even ACG, who liked the game overall, had issues with it, calling it a "tentative buy" as opposed to a "must buy." It's not a game everyone will like, and GameSpot's review clearly shows that -- whether you agree with it or not -- so please, children, do grow up.
