You have pretty much summarized what I liked about the new Tomb Raider: It's kinda linear, so you just go with the flow.

- jimmyjazz14 5y agoThat's what I hate about it, its like a bad interactive movie. I also feel like the new Tomb Raiders focus way to much on combat and almost none on exploring.
- johnnyanmac 5y agoexploring with modern AAA assets is hard, and sandbox style games like Elder Scrolls or GTA take a huge hit in both graphical fidelity and level design to facilitate that (okay, maybe not GTA V, but it's a "console game" with an MMO built into it. The profit margins on it are incomparable). I imagine that that may have been a huge grind to the people at Eidos who were once at the top of their games in terms of visual fidelity. Sacrifice that exploratory feel but still achieve best in class graphics like the old days
- baud147258 5y agoIt's kinda a shame that we're loosing the exploration side of the gameplay for set-piece focused linear adventure with loads of combat, which are dime a dozen nowadays, unlike exploration/platformers with a side of combat
