Maria Doria and Temple of Xian make this the best Tomb Raider game.
>>
>>12114257
Maria Doria is the best level. But overall I gotta go with TRLR due to it being set entirely in Greco-Alexandrian Egypt and is the most "TOMB Raider" in the whole series.

The entire underwater/ship arc is the highlight of the game.
I also like Opera House

Temple of xian is the best level of any Tomb raider

that specific picture always bothered me. her right boob seems off just like the goldeneye cover. it cant be just me and please dont tell me she is squeezing her boob with her right hand thats why it looks like that.
>>
>>12114624
next you'll tell me she visits area 51
>>
>>12114720
Her tits are just massive, anon.
>>
>>12114720
It's because of the shadow on the other boob that makes it look smaller, but they're the same size
>>
>>12114720
That's what you find weird and not how her left handgun is holstered backwards?
>>
I'd raid Lara's tomb if you guys know what I mean...

you fuckers never told me this was some kind of horror game holy fucking shit.

It feels too much like a cheesy, tasteless action movie. Like one of the bad James Bond movies.

It does have some great areas that redeem it (like Maria Doria), but overall it's way below TR1. They took some huge missteps and tried to turn Tomb Raider into a borderline third person shooter, which it was never supposed to be. The core gameplay systems are clearly not designed around that kind of action and it shows. Not that lighting up wops in TR2 is never fun, it does have some good fights, but very often it feels awkward and like the devs didn't really know or care what they were doing when designing the encounters with the Italians

>>12115224
Why do her feet look like they're backwards? Like her soles look like the tops of her feet. Very disturbing, keep those grippers locked up

i won't tell you that, but what i will tell you is that it's actually her left boob that you circled
>>
>>12115423
1 feels more like a horror game with the Atlanteand and Atlantis, I guess 2 has freaky spiders too
>>
>>12115461
1 you can say 'is' more horror esque with your examples and ideas but idk. There's something wayyy more eerie about 2. The atmosphere alone has a higher density of dread to it. Maybe a larger use of fog and shadows but idk, its not it. There's a creepy undertone to 2 that I haven't seen in other games. Its freaky af.

They didn't really care about the soles of her feet with everything else.

>>12115423
its literally in the same category as Resident Evil 1

gameplay is better than tr1

TR2 also uses 20 more triangles to make up lara totaling 350 in TR2.
>>
>>12114257
I agree and as someone who got it at the time back on a playstsion one the opening of the actual games and the music made it stand out as something special, brilliant game

I got Legend, Anniversary, Underworld, and the three nu-Lara games on Steam during the last sale, what am I in for? I've only played the classic games.
>>
>>12116840
>Anniversary
Shitty remake of 1
>Underworld
Big areas, little content
>Legend
Action tomb raider with tombs being dumbed down.
>>
>>12116840
Lara has great legs and ass in Underworld

Toby Gard (TR1 designer who created Lara Croft and left immediately after that game) worked on Legend. It really shows in the amount of soul it has and how right they get Lara as a character

anniversary is an ok game by itself but a terrible remake of TR1. nu lara is so fucking dogshit I didn't even finish the first
>>
>>12116868
Guess I gotta play it then
>>
>>12116840
There are only 3 TR games worth playing, the first 3 ones.

how can a low poly female videogame character be so sexy
>>
>>12118158
same reason tracing a black silhouette on white paper can look sexy: our brain us just a primitive pattern recognition machine
>>
>>12116840
LAU is a 'fine' trilogy, obviously simplified for the times but there's still enjoyment to be had and the soundtrack especially for the first two games was actually great. Underworld showed promise but while good it ended up being a bit too short. The newer ones are not worth the effort, Rise is probably the best of the three and even then it's not Tomb Raider.
>>
>>12118893
I enjoyed Shadow because the environments looked really gorgeous and it still had a good number of tombs with decent platforming and puzzles.
Also, it's the only video game where you can completely turn off all the visual hints such as the yellow paint (or was it white, I forget) so it makes you use your eyes and your brain a little harder. I think you could also turn off automatic ledge grabs so that you had to grab everything manually, classic style. Those settings made it much more gratifying to play for me and I still can't believe that things like yellow paint are obligatory in modern games when this game did it right years ago.
Make no mistake the game has some of the most retarded writing and characters I've seen, especially nuLara, but I had fun playing it.

NTA gameplay is better than tombraider one and bring on more videogames with cheesy adventure plots and less arsy fartsy cut sces about muh feelings written by failed media studies graduates who don't know what a register or an interrupt is

It was the 1990s. Portraying a woman unshod was less idealized aestheticism and more of an expression of ritualized archerypes. It wasn't until the mid 00s with the proliferation of affordable digital cameras and digital drawing pads did people have the resources to reference and perfect without having to dredge the worst corners of the internet or print media. By the early 10s the hermeneutics of fetishistic suspicion infiltrated every depiction of unshod females as the social media arms race brought the worst attention whoring and degenerate fixation into a tight embrace.

The prototypical reporductively available unshod female falls into the coy/feminine/vulnerable or adventurous/tomboyish/coquette categories. Lara is clearly in the latter category, and with the archetype comes low inhibition and sexual availability. The only time you will see a woman's foot bottoms in a polite society is when she is on her back with the legs up or on all fours. The picture works on a symbolic level to activity male sexual attention despite being nominally a tame, poorly modeled example.

it's hard to draw cute feet, and it's even harder when you're using ye olden 3d modelling
should've given her pantyhose imo
>>
>>12114257
I sort of believe it, but the Venice level was so meh that it killed my interest in continuing the game. I dropped it after that

I used to feel bad about stuff like that but eh, I'm not crazy anymore. I finished TR1, TR Legend, and TR2013. I honestly liked all three of them.
