PLAY TOMB RAIDER.
>>731075068I'd like to raid her tomb. If'n ya catch my drift.
>>731075185I do indeed
>>731075068NuRaider is better than the platformers, they aged like shit
>>731075383I like NuRaider but that's wrongThe first few PS1 Tomb Raider games are total classics with awesome remasters and the LAU trilogy is extremely underrated Playstation 2 game design soul food
>>731075068Give me a good reason the remasters don't include a level editor. We were robbed.
I will later this year.
come post in /croft/ for all things Lara
>>731075068NoThat creepy old butler guy terrified me as a kid and still unnerves as an adult
>>731076156That's just Winston, he won't do you wrong
>>731076248Sharks? At that depth? In such cold waters? Bullshit!
>>731075068I was playing The Last Revelation until I got burned out and dropped it.
>>731076305He really went the extra mile with these feet. Fucking sicko.
>>731076419Lara has epic feet
>>731076156Just lure him into the freezer and shut the door
I just got 1-6 so I will be
>>731075068Every Tomb Raider made after Core Design died is shit. Yes, this includes LAU. They're not "soulful" or anything, they're cinematic QTE-laden trash full of completely fucking retarded retcons that misunderstand Lara's character at a fundamental level.
>>731076305Running around half naked in a rusty old shipwreck.Isn't she worried about tetanus?
>>731075383I started with Nuraider trilogy, went back and played the remasters a year ago or so and honestly, nuraider is better than tomb raider 1, but 2 is objectively better executed than all 3 nuraider games. Nuraider tries to make an engaging story with engaging characters and fails three times in a row. The level design is fine in nuraider but nothing that will knock your socks off. Tomb Raider 2 doesn't try and make it about the story and characters, there's really just Lara who's a cheeky hot bimbo that drops a one liner before gunning down the bad guy. The level design in tomb raider 2 is genuinely einsteinian, it really doesn't get much better. The combat however is better in nuraider.

>>731076351Anon are you saying sharks wouldn't be hanging out in the arctic protecting Mjolnir underneath the ice? Because I think they would be>>731076817Based!!!
>>731075068I'm kinda mad that no indie devs or even regular devs have tried to copy the original TR games gameplay does nobody else see the brilliance of the level design and how the grid-based movement works so elegantly? other 3D platformers feel like a bad joke in comparison with their double jumps and magnetically snapping you onto platformsall you have to do is look at the shadow underneath your character and you'll be fine
>>731076845You're allowed to be a tastelet
I played 2 as a kid and since the remasters came out I'm playing 1. My two complaints are that it's hard to quantify exactly how much running counts for starting a running jump. Multiple times I've fucked up what I thought would be a simple series of jumps over gaps because I'll land too close to the far edge of the platform and then just run off the edge because the game won't let me jump again. I remember this vividly in the room with the magnum pistols. The momentum gets lost if I have to put myself behind the middle of every "block" for every jump. The other complaint is that the only puzzle I've encountered is the Cistern. I'm one or two levels after that. Everything else plays out the same. You go into a room, see two locked doors, see the obvious order of climbs and jumps to get a key, come back, open one of the doors, go in and start shooting an animal that can't reach you, then throw the switch which opens the last door and then you complete the level. My memory's hazy but I don't remember 2 being like this. Are the others?

>>731077041>does nobody else see the brilliance of the level design and how the grid-based movement works so elegantly?It's not elegant at all actually. Nobody moves like that irl. It's not natural, nor is it intuitive to play.
>>731077041>>731077162Just watched this video the other day, great and simple explanation of why it's so satisfying and reliable to platform in Tomb Raider
>>731077058>LAUfag calling anyone a tasteletEnjoy your retarded pandering capeshi-tier garbage that makes Natla a lynchpin of the entire setting because the devs are uncreative hacks.
Tomb Raider II is peak
>>731075068i'm gonna go through the whole series this year. i have every game available on steam in my library already.
>>731077201who said games have to be realistic or intuitive? the art of game design lies directly in limitation, and a healthy dose of abstraction the challenge in a game like Castlevania is created by your limited toolkit and the enemy roster's ability to exploit said toolkit with careful positioning and their own abilitiesif you gave Simon Belmont the ability to fire a sniper in any direction, a double jump, a parry, a backflip and more then he would technically have more freedom, but the game would lose all difficulty very quickly. the same is obviously true of a game like TR and how the levels are built around her movement
>>731077435You've probably been bitching about Crystal Dynamics Tomb Raider for 20 years haven't you? What a fucking nerd.
>>731077549It's been shit for 20-something years, so yes.
>>731077513>i'm gonna go through the whole series this year.BASED! Come visit /croft/ if you haven't already! Would love to see more people post about their playthroughs.
Is shadow of the tomb raider any good?I finished rise of the tomb raider about 3 or 4 years ago. It was... fine. But it didn't really drive me to buy the sequel. Specially towards the end.
>>731077603Core Design never made a shitty game. They never made any shitty decisions. Nope. No way. They never mistreated Toby Gard either. There's no way Core Design could produce anything other than divinely inspired perfection.That's why they actually hated Lara and wanted to kill her off after working on her for 4 years straight. That's why they couldn't have possibly saved Lara from the nightmare that they created for her. Tomb Raider Legend saved Tomb Raider and so did Tomb Raider 2013
>>731077853I never said Core Design's games or production process were without fault you fucking sperg. What I said was that Crystal Dynamic's games were abhorrent dogshit, which they are.
>>731077685No, it's the worst entry of the trilogy and Lara is truly insufferable in that game.
>>731077443The hitscan enemies were shit though
Again? But i just finished the remasters. I didn't remember the games being so rough and they didn't even bother to fix obvious bugs
>>731077956Rope, fat bald nerd. Core Design developers treated Lara with disdain despite fanboys clamoring and pretending otherwise for decades and screeching that Crystal Dynamics is responsible for disrespecting Lara (Crystal Dynamics/Toby Gard turned her into a legendary mythical figure).You can like the old platformers more all you want. But Lara Legend who was written and concepted by her original creator >>>> Lara Core that was manipulated and exploited by Eidos at every opportunity
>>731078186I felt that way at first because I sucked at the game but once I gotgud and picked up the Uzis the enemies became pretty fun. Sure they're bullshit, but Lara is bullshit too. The only way they can have a chance is to cheat
>>731075068I'm playing the 2013 one and it's pretty fun but it's hard to finish it because I always end up needing to go masturbate
Why do I want to see Lara take black cock?
>>731075949enjoy a game full of indians and white man bad narrative.
TR1 > 3 >> 2
>>731078784Legacy of Atlantis is a remake of TR1 and India is not featured in the game, the antagonist is a White woman Atlantean with demon wings who transforms into a monster.Catalyst is a sequel to Underworld and is set in India (Lara will be killing lots of Indians) and the antagonist featured in the trailer was a Black woman who gets kicked in the face.
>>731078730If you have that problem, stay away from Tomb Raider Underworld.Basically impossible to keep your dick in your pants playing the game, it will literally unzip itself and burst through your garments trying to reach Lara's bum.
>>731078997>the antagonist is a White woman Atlantean with demon wings who transforms into a monsterShe's so underrated.I think her and Lara should kiss.
I demand big succulent Lara Croft tits. I am a boomer, I have the money, I will not buy your product unless you cater to me.
>>731079147Natla is hot as hell in Underworld and I was really hype to see her again because I fucking loved her in 1 and TR Anniversary. You shouldn't waste a dynamic antagonist character like that, and I'm glad Toby Gard brought her back. It makes sense that she would come back for revenge, that she wouldn't be easily defeated, and it makes sense that the journey's beginning hook gets looped back to the ending.Core Design never actually having any plan for a story for Lara beyond "next years release" really sucks for her character in hindsight. There's nothing cohesive to hold on to outside of game mechanics, whereas with LAU the narrative of her journey very cleanly flows together and many plot elements are mirrored across all three games
>>731079305I think LAU Lara has the best boobs/figure, but the original TR IV and V is an insanely busty Lara. Her boobs are ridiculous in the Remaster version but they're still smaller than the original model/FMV
Any favorite custom levels? I played this a while back, what a gorgeous levelhttps://trcustoms.org/levels/3738
>>731076529I agree
>>731080161It's a Lara feet thread
lara croft CANONLY runs away from little teenagers with knives in the fog of dead by daylight
Ok. But which game is her tits at their biggest? In-game model.
>>731080801Tomb Raider IV is very, very big
someone post the webm of her getting turned into goldand I want to see it in the remake
>>731080839They are not that big, they just are big if you compare it to her torso. Comparing it to her head is a better measure.
>>731080839Alright, I will play Tomb Raider 4. Any other games at maximum melons?
>>731075068Have they done the breast cancer plot yet?
Tomb Raider + BLACKED
>>731083121
tomb raider on /v/ died the day essayposter left
I'm waiting for TRX to get full support of 3.
>>731075068Is there a womb raider mod?
>>731075068I started playing Rise because of the NicoleBounxe modI hate bows
Is it worth it?
>>731078997>Legacy of Atlantis is a remake of TR1it's set in the new Crystal Dynamics "unified" universe so don't be surprised if it's woke
>>731075068Im going to get all the achievements for rise
>>731085931wtf, where did you find such a cheap key?
I’m wrapping my head around jumping in TR1 but for the life of me I can get it around combat / shooting. Is there something I’m missing or am I supposed to just cheese the AI constantly from far away?
>>731088608pretty much, that and jump spam. they're more there to annoy, jumpscare and encourage you to find secrets than anything
>>731084749Essayposter sucked. Seriously people would agree with essayposter and they'd still be mad. There was no pleasing essayposter
>>731077041Dev pov: there are multiple reasons- ppl like Lara, but if u make an indie version you need a new chara- almost nobody plays the classic games with the classic controls (aka the world is on a square grid, and you have perfect and reliable jumps) - who does still play them it's a real fan, and a real fan knows there is a doomlike community for custom levels- a lara/tomb engine it's also being made for free, so there no reason to make a LaraMaker for profit
