      Claudiu Ralea i think the first in this trilogy is the best. it's a bit darker and the enemies and their motives are far more unique and interesting than trinity, who are just like any group of mercenaries in any other game, just there so lara can have people to kill.

    Easily my favorite game of the reboot series, the gameplay is still the strong point just like in the other two but I found the story so much better, so compelling. Especially when you compare it to the mediocre story of Rise. There were various memorable moments and setpieces in this one aswell (that I won't spoil for who hasn't played the game). For me as a trophy hunter, the platinum is also pretty straightforward (and no multiplayer trophies in this one which is a huge yes for me). Overall one of the best experience I had in gaming this year, it's a shame the lack of marketing for this one.
    That being said, for me it's an easy 8.5-9/10

    Just finished playing shadows. I love this series of games, and the third installment. I also agree that their next game (if at all) needs to bring something fresh to the formula, but I don't know what that would be. One thing I have always wanted was more boss fights. Kinda like the witch in Rise where you get the wraithskin from. That was a very cleverly designed boss and I think the game would benefit from more, "puzzle bosses".

      @ParkerLad88 Рік тому

      Big facts. I don't think that tomb raider needs a refreshing, as if it's stale or something, but I think it would benefit from some new gameplay ideas. As an example, I think shadows could have leaned more into its camouflage mechanic more (hiding in the mud and such) since the trailers led me to believe that this was going to be a big element of the gameplay. From a gameplay standpoint shadows felt like more of rise, rather than a progression (which is not bad, because rise was great.)

      If you blindly follow one review your a dummy. However, it's good to find 2 or 3 reviewers you can trust which make good content and then form an opinion based on that. It would be better though if all games had like a demo of the first hour or section of the game. Unfortunately that doesn't happen often so listening to reviews is the best way to see if a game is possibly for you.

    My wife never played many of the old TR games (unlike me) and the reboot was her first foray not just into the series, but 'gaming' in general. I bought her the definitive edition of the 2013 game and more recently, the 20th anniversary edition of Rise.
    She absolutely loves these games and when we heard about Shadow, we were pretty on-board. I very, very recently finished up Rise with 100% completion and so I have an extremely fresh comparison between Shadow and Rise, I am seeing a lot of re-used elements, but also some great looking new ones.
    I'm aware that this new entry is likely just more of the same, but that's what I am expecting and don't mind it.
    I am impressed to see more emphasis on stealth. I tried ghosting Rise, but some areas just do not make it possible. Less combat would also be incredible, always felt alienated by how much combat is in this rebooted series.

    Croft edition here, playing from the moment it was open to croft edition owners, and having immediately 2 days off from work;
    Without even working on 'completionism' yet, I'm still only 74% through - not finished the story yet. The game is amazing. I really hope Crystal Dynamics is allowed to go on with the series. I loved the reboot, more than I did the old ones, but they really nailed it with this last game. The labor of love really shows and they managed to make everything good there was about the previous installments better. Although on a personal note, I wouldn't mind a little bit more action. But that's me.

    @n1c98 3 роки тому +10

    I like the stealth and puzzle aspects to the game. Two big negatives to the game thus far. One is that they could have ease of controls by toning down on excessive use of different buttons for different features. I play PC and this is what I've experienced, can't speak on behalf of consoles. Just assigning for example "E" for more features, instead of "E" being applied to one function where you can't use it for other functions. Why not use brevity in the pragmatics of the gameplay's controls. I am near a ledge with a body of water under me, I jump, and press "E" to dive, since "E" is used for many other interactive features. This would make climbing much easier, and other features more fun in the gameplay, not to mention you would be toning down on all the controls explanations in the large portion to the beginning of the game. The second thing I don't like is the climbing physics and concepts. You see Lara as a kid jump down 25 feet onto the ground and get up and brush herself off. Yet there are unnecessary/ excessive climbing parts where I can easily jump down 10 feet and yet she ends up dying like she jumped off a 250 foot building - all for the sake of making you climb more. This I don't like, this part I may be more opinionated on, however I know from what I have read the excess in the different controls for different features is something widely voiced by the gaming community. I'm not against the climbing, there are just things they should have cleaned up with this. Great features with the resources and skills sections. The cut scenes and overall adventure is well done. Quixotic at times, but overall pretty great game

  • @takoshihitsamaru4675

    Playing through it now for the first time, almost 100% (second last mission now I gather).
    Yeah, I have to admit, as much as I'm an old-school Tomb Raider fan, these games do have a satisfying gameplay loop, and Shadow is no different, it's very samey in comparison to Rise, but it definitely takes on a darker tone at times, story is decent enough with some fantastic moments (Croft Manor being a highlight), and although there's less combat, the game is better for it.
    Definitely getting closer to Tomb Raider gold with all the crypts and tombs in this one, the biggest issue though is that none of the puzzles really had me scratching my head.

    I got the game on Tuesday and I absolutely love it so far. I'm taking my time with it but it's been an amazing experience throughout. Great story, bad ass combat, and beautiful sequences and scenery, even the devastating ones. I also really enjoy how they brought more of a puzzle element back into the games. Reminds me of the classic ones. And the voice acting for Lara and Jonah, especially in the emotional moments, is just incredible. I have felt so many chills already throughout the game. This is definitely a must buy for Tomb Raider fans. And if you're not a fan of the franchise yet, make sure you play the first 2 in the reboot. The game is heavy on the story so it wouldn't make sense to play it without the first 2. And heck, I'd take it a step further and look into the older games. But that's all up to you. I love Lara and the Tomb Raider series and I can't wait to finish this chapter and see what happens next for her.

    • @ilovelctr
      @ilovelctr 2 роки тому +1

      Puzzle-wise, I find this entry to be the best in the trilogy too, and in this regard it vastly outperforms Rise. But it bugs me though how the combat has worsened ever since TR9 in 2013. And in Shadow the combat moves seem rather glitchy I would say. However, I don't feel averse to the shift to fewer combat sequences but more puzzles at all. Actually I'm very keen on this new take, which as you said, reminds me of classic ones too. I just wish that for the combat sections that there are, the mechanics and animation could've been as good as in TR9.

If your not into action adventure games, obviously tomb raider has never been for you plain & simple. If u can hold off for a black Friday sale just wait, it's always smarter to pay less for games. My rule of thumb is pay the 60 for 1 game to tide u over until black Friday, its just satisfying. But shadow of the tomb raider happened to fall into the perfect time frame, early Sept to FH4 game pass October, to black Friday November

    This is the first Tomb Raider game since a long time, that has the same feeling as the old Tomb Raiders from the 90's. It feels fucking good to play. The challenges are real, it takes lots of thinking, the cutscences with Johnas are awesome and give a lot personality wise of both characters, the sidequests are nice to have and actual are rewarding (guns, bows, outfits and skilltree points and unlocking options), the story is well written and it's not just click and shoot. I also like the part that depending on your outfit, you'll enable or disable certain sidequests. Since long I've looked for a game that can straight up caught me multiple days in a row.

    Came from your Rise of The Tomb Raider vid. You said almost exactly the same thing about it that it is just more like a extended version of the Tomb Raider 2013. I am totally fine about it, too. I don't know why people will complain that the new game always has to come with a new system. For example, I love Horizon Zero Dawn. I would totally play another new story of it with a exact same system. People will argue that's more like a DLC, but remember there wasn't DLC back in the days and that was how game works. Plus, you love the games for the storys, characters and your be loved protagonist for most of the time, not the combat mechanics. You love the content, not the controls. Not to mention that there is no way they make a game with exactly the same system. There will at least be a better UI and control system for sure, that you might be wishing for in the previous sequels. Therefore, why complains about games being the same, but with new storys?

    -The perk tree has a lot of perks that seem useless. So most of the time when I leveled up I never had that sense of excitement when I will run into another camp site so I can get a new perk
    -There where many sections of the game where I was forced to not have my whole arsenal available and also was forced to wear an outfit I didn’t wanna wear (this is a big game breaking con for me)
    - I personally wish there was a little more opportunities to do stealth combat but throughout the whole game there was only a few sections in this game that had stealth.
    - I feel that Laura’s personality was a bit bland tbh. And it really stood out during the dialogue cutscenes for the side quests. Her voice just sounds so boring and she doesn’t have a charming or charismatic personality at all. Not to mention overall the voice acting was a little dull if I’m gonna be honest

    Without too many spoilers, but does this game still have supernatural elements like the previous 2 games as they really added to the mystery and exploration in my opinion.

    GAMERANEX. when u said that the graphics with her face in some parts are messed up it’s because of the outfit u put on her. If u have that specific outfit on her, that will change her appearance sometimes, so just change it back to the first outfit u had. And it will be “fixed” per say. Still love your videos, keep it up

    My PC is barely able to run it and there are many lighting glitches when you put everything at the minimum. But there is a tool in the main menu that helps analyse how well the game will run and how it will look. That was really helpful.

  • @lespaulphoenix5179

    Just finished it. I agree with you for the most part.
    I am kind of concerned that the game hasn't changed alot. While in fairness the pace has slowed a bit and the emphasis is not so action heavy, but I am kind of worried especially in the way Lara looks/plays is playing it a little too safe. Especially in regards to how I really want to see an updated take on classic Lara, but the tounge in cheek, "here's blocky classic Lara instead", is almost a slap in the face. (Maybe it really is.)
    I realize it's challenging to certain sensibilities, and I respect that, but then again, I miss the gadgets, the flips and the ridiculous awesome stuff Lara did in the old days.
    The game is so grounded, it feels like they're afraid of taking any risks to as to not upset anyone.
    I don't know if I'm wrong, and I hope I am. But that's my two cents.
    Irregardless, I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt for a third, and final, time.
    They got one last prequel before I stop buying them. Haha

    I have been a huge fan of Tomb Raider games all the way back to the first one ( I know, blah blah). Anyway, these new ones have been awesome. They have done an incredible job rebooting this franchise and I loved every minute of TR13 and ROTTR. Then Horizon Zero Dawn came out (I know that the two games are very different but both have a badass heroine with a bow). I started Shadow and I was really loving it but I found myself missing HZD. Lara feels stiff and uncoordinated compared to Aloy, probably due to the latter being a PlayStation exclusive. The dilemma I have is this, if Horizon never existed I would be loving this game wayyy more than I am now. All this time I've been playing SOTTR I miss Horizon. Whatever, the game is great but once I finish it, it'll be right back to HZD.
    Great review as always!!
