SPOILER FREE
*100% playthrough on survivor difficulty*

Overall: It is a decent entry, although a little cringe-worthy at times, especially for how serious it tried to be.

Gameplay: is cool I guess. Gets a bit silly when the game wants to be so serious, yet Lara hasn't got a problem murdering. Also the amount of physical strain put on her is ridiculous but it's just a game, so you know. The rope+arrow mechanics are utterly absurd (I think I like them). Tombs were alright I guess. Combat felt very unnecessary most of the time, but it is part of the franchise, they can't just abandon it. Can they?

Collectibles: some were a bit annoying and for a silly-head like me, it took quite a while to find them. It's ok for people who like to 100% stuff. Great attention to detail on the artifacts.

Graphics: *very nice* Played on ultra on my decent specs, had like 40 fps, good times. Sponsored by L'Oréal.

Sound: sound was oke, sfx were immersive, voice acting was immersive, thought one of the dudes was voiced by Bautista but apparently no. Music was pretty generic.

Story: very personal to Lara, so that's a plus. I guess it could be described as pretty tomb-raidery (with all the tomb raiding you do here and whatnot). A lot of it was cliche-galore, though. The characters described in the found notes seemed more interesting than those in the cutscenes. The game could use a better script, imo. The ending was p r e t t y b a d.

DLC: Was the complete edition worth it? I don't know. Finished the main dlc and it was aight. Pretty lackluster. Croft manor was cool. But don't go in expecting the huge estate from the past entries. Here, it's just a small, confined series of corridors, that's just meant to serve the story it tells, which is fine. Played like 5 seconds of the nightmare one, but I guess it's just not for me.

Other: Didn't get into the marketplace, challenge, card stuff, don't care.

It's like a 7/10 for me. Get it with a discount.

Quite exquisitely crafted piece of art. Pressing [fire] to pay my respects.

I can't do anything that's mentioned in the description, but I still enjoy playing this game. Shame it's a ripoff of Mad Tracks. Still Ate/Ben10.

This game is the most awesome thing on this side of planet Earth, I've never been to the other side but if I ever go I will see if it holds up there as well. Just kidding I have wasted so many hours playing this, and mostly losing I do not even know why I still play and lose from time to time.

great game loving it :)
