   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. (May contain a few spoilers)
   
   First, ask yourself these:
   
   1. Do you like Lara Croft Games?
   If yes, continue.
   
   2. Do you mind being a young woman fighting only men?
   If no, you don't mind, continue.
   
   3. Did you play and (!) like the previous game?
   Optional, either way continue ;)
   
   I really like the game and the reboot in general. It's a journey showing why Lara becomes the woman she's reknown for.
   In this "episode" the center plays around her father and the legacy he left Lara. Throughout the game, either during campfire restings or cut scenes, Lara's past and development is being explained more and more.
   Whoever remembers the originals will realize that this is very true and fitting - a little girl who grew up with a loving yet distant father, who was driven to (Spoiler) "suicide" in the end.
   
   The gameplay is excellent, as always. It's a lot better than the previous version, less repetative and extremly satisfying.
   Yes of curse it's not fully immersive - as per usual you unlock abilities, weapon extensions and so on. It's a game and I don't mind as it does actually feel "rewarding", appealing to the human senses of improving ourself.
   
   Graphics, what can I say? If you've got the machine, play it at least on High if not FULL - it's a gorgous as a game can get. My first awe was when Lara made her way through deep snow, sruggling forward and leaving a deep trail in the snow with every step. Marvelous!
   
   Combat is satisfying, however sometimes a tad bit clunky. Clunky in a way where at times you have no other option than to blast through enemies. Lara can now hide and kill even more efficiently silently (taking a part from Assassins Creed, like hiding in bushes or jumping from above for a clean kill) - this however is being disrupted once you're spotted. Hiding again? No chance, enemies will hunt you down to the end and always find you, for example when I dove back under ice water and swam under a thick layer of ice to another exit, NPCs followed me w/o any issues.
   
   Speaking of ice water. While I love the immersive behavior, I try not to gringe too much about the unrealistic "swimming through ice cold water, drenched wet and then being absolutely fine". Here we need to apply "it's a game" - otherwise you'll groan a bit too often.
   
   Story: it's ok. It's been there before, especially in movies (Holy Grail anyone?). What really bothers me here is the same like in every cheesy movie: who dies when and how - or what happens next. NOTHING is surprising at all.
   It builds up the typical race to the goal, where people you ally yourself with will die - of course in the most cheesy way. SPOILER: "shoot him, don't listen to him" ...and of course he's not shooting him and of course taking his eyes from the murderous maniac that just tortured you for hours, therefore killing you with a knife. Ugh.
   
   BUT this does not make it a bad game. It reduces 100% quite a bit, though.
   
   Verdict: 85%… Expand

   The game graphics are really realistic and the game contents are interested with new ability from Lara Croft.

   A good game in general that unfortunately lacks an engaging or logical story. The graphics are somehwat realistic, but not all that prettyA good game in general that unfortunately lacks an engaging or logical story. The graphics are somehwat realistic, but not all that pretty (that is, course my own subjective judgement). A true shame considering what the 2013 game was able to achieve, but the gameplay is still quite engaging, apart from a missplaced survival/crafting focus and the game requiring you to pump sometimes up to three whole AR magazines into certain enemy types before downing them.… Expand

   I started to play with high expectations, and this was attended in the beginning, but after a few minutes the problems starts to show up.
   The first thing i don't like about this game was the pace. This game is too slow if compared with the ps1 and ps2 games. They basically have transformed Lara from a badass who run and gun everyone in her eye sight, to a scared average girl who needs to hide in bushes and stealth kill the enemies
   The exploration in this game is not good also, as you have too many boring things to do like:
   -Hunting animals (that's so **** boring)
   -Ton of collectables to catch
   -Exploring tombs that the majority looks all the same
   -Boring side quests
   The story of this game begins nice, but also fall shortly after a few hours, when stupid things starts to happens. A lost village hidden in a mountain that doesn't feel like is hidden at all? Seriously? How in the **** hell trinity with a ton of helicopters can't see it? That's so **** stupid.
   And now the worst of all things: The anti USSR sentiment in this game.
   This game has a load of **** about USSR, and that's funny because there is a lot of propaganda about Lara Croft being a strong women representation in games and they forgot that USSR was the first country to give equal rights to men and women in the world. Before Soviet Union women can't go work like men and because of this i will give this game no more than a 0 out of 10… Expand
