OMG the controls are terrible

[Core308]

This game is borderline unplayable. Neighter tank or modern controls are in any way acceptable on this side of Y2K. All controls are very unresponsive and Lara ends up doint what she wants a few seconds after it really mattered. pls fix

There is no getting gud for the broken modern controls though.

I think the problem might be... you're attempting to play a game made for non-morons.

Maybe if you lick some boots at Nexus a modder will program you an autoplay mod for modern audiences.

Skill issue.

Which is why you should never use them. People getting upset because you're playing with a control scheme that should have never existed for this style of game.

The original tank controls worked just fine for millions of players before you.

Dude, the tutorial explains everything you need to play the game. If you are struggling to make jumps, just do a one tile width running-jump.

Zoom zoom goes the Zoomer,

through the levels with no clue,

where's my yellow paint? They cry,

as they miss and fumble through.

Their fingers clumsy, used to slide on a screen,

can't handle the controls of this old-school dream.

No magnets on platforms, some skill is vital,

but zoom zoom goes the Zoomer as he continues to falter.

Tomb Raider 1-5 are like classic Prince of Persia but in 3D and with firearms instead of swords. Every movement carries weight and requires precision and timing. Go to Laras home and do the tutorials exercises. If you are using Moder Controls, I wrote a guide to explain how to do many of the moves: "Modern Controls useful tips and commands"

I was waiting for a comment like that XD

Play with a D-Pad, she's a bit more responsive when using tank controls. That is what the game was made after all.

Beautiful.

Perhaps only missing something about contextual actions.

Outside of some issues specifically geared towards the joycons on the switch constantly making me do the 180 spin move when I run ( only seems to be an issue with the joycons, my 8bitdo and official switch pro controller don't have this issue ). I've had almost no issues adjusting to the controls and they don't bother me one bit.

At worst, I hate it when I go to do a running jump, and hit jump to quick so she does a jump forward instead, which often gets me killed by falling to my death lol. But that's more of an issue with me hitting jump too quick after hitting forward on the dpad.
