Do you own her in Fortnite? I sadly missed the battle pass version (picrel) that has all the styles but I have the shop version based on AoD and I’m pretty happy with her. Looks more biblically accurate than the BP one.
>>550621435Shop version
>>550621435I missed the battle pass version as well but yeah the Angel of Darkness one is probably the best looking although I also like how the survivor one looks in game more than the classic surprisingly.

i think the colosseum is my favorite part of tr1. when i was a kid i would go over to my buddies house and one time when i brought tomb raider over we were playing through that area and had the tv pretty loud and my black friends mom thought i was the one making gorilla noises and almost beat me and my buds ass, good times. first time id ever seen a black persons skin complexation change, i had no idea they could turn red just like us, we really are all the same. she got us reeses later as an apology, fucking love reeses bros.

i always described tomb raider as resident evil meets doom meets prince of persia
>>550621435i just realized the gold is a reference to the midas touch death in 1. actual kino.
>>550643282>doomWhy? it was never a shooter. Action was alaways mostly cosmetic in TR. Just there to look cool and break the pace
>>550644176shooting while doing puzzles and jumping around to make it to end of a level where you are scored on a multitude of things and there are secrets to be found in every level
>>550645348you gave a definition so generic that it fits tomb raider, doom, bubble bobble, Bionic Commando and 1000 others
>>550646342the way you get to the secret areas in bubble bobble is not the same at all in how you do it in tomb raider and doom
>>550646934Yeah, and the action and platforming component of doom and tomb raider couldn't be more different.I was just confused by your doom reference, of all things
>>550647378the secrets and the results after each level, just easy to explain it to people that havent played before

What is /croft/'s favourite TR trilogy?For me it goes:1. Legend trilogy2. Original trilogy3. Von Croy trilogy4. Horse trilogy
>>550704293>4. Horse trilogyuhm correction, there were 4 parts in that
New to Tomb Raider and I just played 2013 first after buying the entire franchise. It was way better than I was expecting it to be. I went into it expecting it to be Uncharted and it ended up being one of the edgiest, most 2013-core games I have ever played. Was it controversial when it released for the extreme levels of violence? Also are you supposed to play these with a controller or mouse and keyboard? I am going to start Rise today
>>550704293original for sure. 1 is just very memorable and still has the best lara voice imo, 2 is my favorite with its plot and memorable areas and 3 is just pure fun. after that its von croy > legend > survivor
>>550709938>Was it controversial when it released for the extreme levels of violence?No, just for it being a very very different game compared to the ones before it>Also are you supposed to play these with a controller or mouse and keyboard?Really doesnt matter ive played them using both and dont have a preference
>Die to bug>Have to replay 10 minute climbing tutorial>Die to bug againMaybe I will not be playing Rise
>>550715547Shit blows dont remember any bugs personally
haven't played the originals before the remasters, so i check og mode back and forth, and man the original graphics sometimes mog the shit out of new ones, i mean look at these stars
>>550718685many such cases. i do think lost valley looks much better in the remaster though
i forgot james bond was in the first movie
>>550718809me in the back
I made a huge mistake trying to play Rise on bullshit mode. Every time I think I don't need to backtrack and save I get instakilled by some stupid ass bug like the camera randomly deciding to spin around in circles while swimming underwater (apparently Lara can only hold her breath for 10 seconds) and then I lose 30 minutes of progress. You also can't change the difficulty so I would have to restart the entire game again in order to play it on survivor without the bullshit save system. This is implemented terribly so I guess I'm just not going to play it and skip to Shadow.
>>550724702What a beautiful and strong black woman~
>>550724702There isnt a mod that lets you change the difficulty level?
>>550719081yeah definitely, i think basically all levels in 2 and 3 look much better
>>550728427i wish the lighting in the water areas was more bright but thats my only complaint
don't fucking tell me i have to jump above these blades on the slopes back and forth to push ALL FOUR switchesthere better be a fucking switch somewhere to turn them off
>>550733758SAVE time
>>550736123motherfucker there is no time to save they get to the other side in 5 seconds, there's gotta be more to that
>>550738161land more better and save :D
>>550738217you LIAR i figured it out, they have safe space here
>>550738862isnt it satisfying figuring it out on your own?
>>550739098would be more satisfying if crouching between them worked too but it doesn't, so i thought they take out the entire tile and spent an hour jumping up and down like a retard
>>550739376i did the same shit when i was little, rite of passage really

i am palace midas
I want to thank Legend for giving me a tummy fetish
>>550724702idk why people do first play throughs of games on the hardest difficulty when they are almost always intended as second play throughs
>>550744165Lara would be great in Venus Vacation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLAlU4LvY0Q
>>550691936Did you also like the DK Country games? I feel like usually people that love water levels have played those games too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvknNfjWL4Q
i always get lost in citadel
I always pull the switch too early in cistern and then forget the water isnt that high when you start it and get stuck trying to figure out how to lower the water and feel like a dumbass when i remember
how fast do you think they would asset flip a 2 remake? for the games to fit in the new shiteline at all the would have to remake pretty much all of them no? plus it would be cheap to make a remake of 2 and 3 at least since you already have so much made, yet i have the feeling we are just getting 1 again and nothing else.
she kind of looks like a dark crystal puppet...
>>550788247More Planet of the Apes to me
>>550788247I sound like that one Skeksis whenever I look at Lara. MMMMmmmmmmmMMMMmmmmm...
>>550792024
I would honestly rather have the comics just reprinted in their original format since its easier to store comics than a big fucking book and dropping 100 dollars all at once is insane, spacing it out at like 5 bucks every other month is just easier for most people even if its more money in the long run. Omnibuses are also just not super comfortable for actual reading because of their size, imagine trying to take a tome into the shitter.
>>550786057sorry what were you saying?
I always described tomb raider as sex meets more sex
wish 2013 got a physical release on switch
>>550801346wish goty was on switch instead of "definitive"
Did they make 3 the way they did because of game rentals?

>>550808986Cheers bud, take it easy.
>>550808986i feel like i must have seen an episode or two at some point. actress looks deadly familiar.
>>550762661I played 2013 on the hardest difficulty and it was easy as fuck. The actual game part of the game is still easy even on bullshit mode, you just waste hours of time when you die to a stupid bug and I don't want to engage with such dogshit design.
>>550769074never played them, but yeah i have them on the list i'll get there eventually
How does the level design of LAU compare to the core design games?
>>550820792More simple but don't make that discourage you from playing them
playing Rise right now and I like the game well enough, but I really hate Lara's characterisation - she just keeps whining about how everything is her fault and that she has to help the natives and so on. just for once I want her to surprise me and say "you know what? i don't care"
lara sex
>>550831868Sadly they thought a woman who takes artifacts from tribes of times past was racist so now she is...helping them and giving back to them things they couldnt protect themselves, so a white savior gimmick. Yeah thats a bit more racist actually isnt it?

I never played a Tomb Raider game in my life. Just got Anniversary, Legend and Underworld on Steam.Should I start with Legend or Anniversary?
>>550878762Anniversary, hope you enjoy.
You know, modern controls don't feel that bad for the remasters outside of maybe combat (though you can cheese a lot of the AI, especially humans, since you're so agile, like continually circle strafing to their back while unloading). I've played through TR1R first with tank controls, then with modern, and I actually prefer modern 90% of the times. I think the hate that modern controls get is because the game doesn't bother to explain how to actually use them. Like if you want to ledge grab, you just run off the platform holding the grab button and Lara will automatically grab on. If you want to back up to do a precision jump, hold your weapon equip button down and press back (back and side flips are also initiated by holding down the weapon equip button and jumping back or to the sides).
>>550870142kino
>>550873276yeah so i just bought a new pc just so i can play the new tr games coming out
>>550880737I just think tank feels better but maybe its just muscle memory
>>550880737Even if modern controls controlled better, they'd still be shit because tank controls were a huge part of classic Tomb Raider's charm.
>>550880737>>550889117I think tank feels better if you're playing on a keyboard or dpad, while modern feels better with a joystick. The greater precision of tank controls is overblown. Tank is more precise, but not by that much and you give up the ability to quickly orient your camera (both a strength and weakness).
>>550893765I hate this annoying ugly bitch and I hate seeing her everywhere because she cosplays anything and everything to advertise her OF
>>550897496i like petite women that look like monkeys
>>550897496
>>550897496gay
>>550816304I think you will really enjoy the water levels even though you cant drown. The atmosphere and movement are great.
>>550808671https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSDerRNtHeY
>>550897496Didnt even realize it was that blonde chick, weird seeing her forehead.
>>550880737Tank controls are the only way worth playing. Modern controls are for brainrotted zoomers. Tank controls have waaaay more precision. Every movement has to be deliberate and every action calculated. It slows down the pace of the game, making for a more cinematic experience. Tank controls are more immersive and rewarding. The controls are part of the challenge and add to the puzzle element. They force the player to think about their movements and plan their directions in advance that modern controls lack. On top of that, they add to the sense of suspension and tension, and contribute greatly to the atmosphere of the game as Lara must carefully navigate through a perilous environment and combat situations with controls that don't have immediate responsiveness. Basically, playing with modern controls is like removing attack commitment from Dark Souls, or pulling back the camera in God of War. It sacrifices gameplay and atmosphere for the sake of easy mode convenience, and fuck that trend. It's killing gaming.
>>550908768the controls werent made hard on purpose, thats just how they are. most issues people have with tank is just perception. instead of going in the direction of the stick the character goes in the direction of them. their perspective vs yours and once thats explained to people they usually have a much easier time. the character is right, which means pressing forward makes them move that direction since its through their eyes that they move.
>>550908768>>550880737It's funny that everyone is like>modern controls suck>they have 0 precision>you can't make jumps with them>you can't beat the game with themwhen most of the challenge/speed running autists will use modern controls. Ultimately, it comes down to whatever you're most comfortable with. And as far as>realism and atmospherego, I think the fluidity of modern controls is more immersive. Lara taking a few seconds to turn around does not match the super-gymnast gunslinging adventurer the game portrays her as.
>>550909576 I hate the zoom zoom kiddy-controlls so much. It's totally a different game. Parkour different, battles different, timed puzzles different. You didn't beat the game if you used modern controls. You didn't even play the game!
>>550909576honestly shocked people have more of a problem with modern controls and not the graphics, in both modes.
Isn't Lara lesbian?
>>550912486if the timelines are merging then it means she was lesbian in her younger years because of her daddy issues and fear of abonnement but then got the taste for dick and never went back, honestly a based message. thanks cd!
>>550912486Only in the Netflix show. In everything else, she's either ace the a stands for adventure or bi. I get that girl on girl is hot, and they want to be "inclusive," but I never got why all strong and competent action movie-esque heroines had to be lez. Going to do a bit of lib brainrot here, but when most badass females are lesbian, it ends up perpetuating stereotypes that the only women who would leave the kitchen, enter the domain of men, and thrive there are all carpet munchers.
>>550913424there is no way thats an actual character hair style right? that type of hair was not a thing back when the show is supposed to take place
>>550913424Yeah, it feels like most female main protagonists are lesbian. Ellie, Alloy, Atsu, Fem Shep, and Reboot Lara are all gay. It seems like you can only have a straight or bisexual heroine if they're playing second fiddle to a male protagonist.
This and Legends had the best Lara face and hair.
>>550915021Fem Shep fucks aliens and black men, no?
>>550915301Genuinely dont even recognize this
>>550915021i really think lara is cute
>>550880737I watched playthru's and modern controls and half the problem is that they are struggling with the 'modern' controls. Not only for moves and lining up but the camera as well so that it's easy to miss things. 'Modern' controls certainly make it easier to run around an open areas and for some combat. You can in fact run around easily with tank controls using the left stick as well. I'm totally new to tank controls, but I know these games are made for these controls so I took the time to practice with them because I am not a retard, but kids these days want modern gratification and and instead fumble around with 'modern' controls and then complain about how the game is bad. Tank controls are the way to go because the game mechanics require it. You must be 100% precise to make all the jumps you have to make and you just can't get that with modern controls. It's easier in TR1, but TR3 especially gets incredibly tricky with modern controls. All of these games are designed around clunky controls, therefor its better to just go use the clunky controls. tank controls are just part of the authentic experience. They are what makes the platforming so challenging and rewarding.

>>550922202Okay but what are your arguments against it? Accessibility?
>>550880737i only played them with modern controls and i had very few problems going through the first trilogy, the only parts i remember being somewhat clunky is backflipping from a ledge and turning in the air to face the other way
>>550925649
Why did they make Pierre so handsome in the Remaster?
>>550929072He's supposed to look like Lara if genderswapped, so him being a heartthrob checks out.
>>550928930stupid stupid stupid sexy sexy sexy
>>550929235he looks like a chihuahua
>>550929472I can see it.>>550929072>>550929235Only fags and women see other men as handsome. For those of us who aren't freaks, when we see another man, we feel nothing. It is like looking at a remote or can of soda, and we do not think those are attractive.
>>550929615this fags never shoved a soda up his ass
people wouldnt need modern controls if they just did the tutorial instead of skipping over it and if people could explain the tank controls to them more precisely. its simple, the characters moves based off their view, if they are facing a way pushing forward causes them to move forward in the direction they are turned towards, bakcwards does the opposite. its that simple.

Is there much of a difference between Anniversary and the original? Which one should someone play?
>>550998650Not a lot were printed
>>551001734>Is there much of a difference between Anniversary and the original? Yes. Not just in gameplay and level layouts, but in art direction. Anniversary has a much more grounded and grey artstyle, while the original/remastered get almost Lovecraftian by the end. Like descending into Atlantis in the original was like walking into a completely alien hell, whereas Anniversary's take was a lot of big stone architecture with glowing runes rather than flesh walls that beat like a heart.>Which one should someone play?Both.
>>551004950And here's Atlantis in Anniversary. It's likely the look that the new game will lean into.Which version do you prefer, anyway?
>>551005169TRA's Atlantis is so painfully generic compared to the original's take. I can understand that they didn't go with flesh walls and body horror to avoid the M rating, but it sucked so much soul and atmosphere out of the final levels.
>>551005169Original looks much better. Idk why they would go in that direction its so boring compared to the other, i might just play the original and not even bother with Anniversary.
Why did Natla send Larson to kill Lara, anyway? Lara was working under Natla up to that point. Lara probably wouldn't have handed over the scion to Natla anyway, but Natla couldn't have been sure. Additionally, it probably would have been easier and safer to just steal from Lara's mansion later (like some of the other main antagonists have done).
>>551019442It's dumb, but it's because Natla was a cheapskate who underestimated Lara. Natla is also a paranoid control freak, and Lara wasn't one of her people. Finally, Natla just did not like Lara that much from the get-go. Personality conflict; it happens, especially between strong women. She'd probably have tried to bump off Pierre as well
would lara like matcha tea?
>>551004950>Natla's Pyramid in 1 was a bio mechanical monstrosity made out of blood, bone, and creepy architecture>Natla's Pyramid in Anniversary was generic fantasy civilization.
>>551020895Was TRA Atlantis really that bad?
>>551021143Yes
>>551021143completely killed the shock when reaching there and its otherwordly feel. its the worst sin of the remake and is the reason i say its a failure.
was lara not even in that dog shit all stars brawl thing sony made? idk why games keep skipping on our girl
>>550921737there's not much difference between tank controls and modern, with look button pressed you get the same thing as with mouse look, also weapon draw for back and side flips, but that's basically it so it's not a big deal
