will take all you know and love away from you

this game doo doo

gud gam

I got Rise of the Tomb Raider free with my new graphics card, and it looked amazing! So here are my first experiences.

-Pros
Absolutely Gorgeous Graphics
Hair Physics! (only on Lara)
Story kept me intrigued and I wanted to see what happened next
Parkour!
Gunplay is 7/10 (bow op)
Good Voice acting
Music adds to the intense and suspenseful moments
If you are having trouble on a puzzle Lara will give you a clue by talking to herself

-Cons
When lara talks when not in a cutscene her mouth literaly just goes up and down and it looks like cancer
Parkour system will screw you over if you hold down the wrong buttons or dont spam E
Compared to the bow, guns suck (plz buff guns plz :)))
The Marketplace card system is weird, and not worth any of your money, the game doesnt give you any information on what the cards do or how to use them, so I didnt know what they did until searching for 30 minutes. All they do is when you play an expedition (basically one mission of the game) with either more advantages or disadvantages, and you can try to improve your score on that level
Dont play on high volume, Lara groans and it will cause your parents to walk into your room about every 12 seconds
Poorly optimized, especially in the Soviet Installation, where my frames will drop from 60-90 to about 0-5 (plz fix)



Overall I rate this game at a 7.5/10

Launched myself off a catapult. Landed on a guy, killed him, then glided over a body of water on my shield, chopped a guy, jumped onto a wall, then exploded.
420/69 would explode again.
