I don’t really understand why everyone is complaining about AOD, saying that they didn’t change much in the remaster or that it’s buggy. At the beginning, I just increased the mouse sensitivity a bit, and after that everything worked perfectly with modern controls. Bugs were extremely rare and insignificant, they didn’t negatively impact my experience at all. Honestly, I binge-played the whole thing, I just couldn’t stop until the end.


✅ Pros

• Great story, especially the intense connection between Kurtis and Lara (sad that it was left hanging without a continuation, it had a lot of potential)

• Modern controls make the gameplay experience much more fluid and enjoyable

• Level and story structure

• Mysterious elements in the story and an unpredictable, unexpected ending

• Variety in achievements, some are actually challenging

• Interesting and varied puzzles, some quite challenging

• Restored dialogue lines and Kurtis’ full abilities with his boomerang weapon

• New Game+ is a welcome and challenging experience

• Improved and pleasant graphics, I didn’t bother comparing with the original version; I just liked how this remastered version looked like


❌ Cons

• Too little gameplay with Kurtis, and his levels feel a bit flat, he’s a character with much more untapped potential; but I guess this is a con for the original game

• Two achievements are semi-bugged, you need to do more or be more precise than the description suggests: Two Steps a Hades and Hit the Floor

• It would’ve been nice to have more combat options, more variety beyond just run/jump/punch/shoot

Classic fun!

Best game!
