Old-gen VS Next-gen graphics

[seblecaribou]

I think I'm going blind or something but I actually like the old-gen graphics better than the next-gen rendering. It looks cartoony and pretty well made while the highest options kind of looks odd in my opinion. Is it just me? @_@

No, there are plenty of cases where "next-gen" looks silly

[Tomb_Raider_Legend (t.A.T.u)]

Myself , I have finished TRL on ps2 and pc many many times. And never used the next gen. I like the lara look without the next gen on myself.

I too find that older games like the first Devil May Cry and Prince of Persia The Sands of Time look better than most current gen games. TR Legend, Anniversary and Underworld look amazing imo !

I find it harder to distinguist the movable objects of puzzles when using Next Gen Mode. Everything (including Lara) is darker in Next Gen Mode and the contrast between objects is lower. I also noticed that Next Gen Mode is lacking the "wet skin" effect that's supposed to show when Lara comes in contact with water, which is very strange considering it is supposed to make everything look "next gen"... :/

ikr! i just googled this to see if anyone else felt the same way, oddly i feel that having Next Gen Graphics turned on actually make the game look worse as it looks darker and the water looks worse

Next Gen graphics are fixed in GOG version

if anyone is having trouble with random frame freezing and your confident u own a high endish pc try dgVoodoo. WIth it im able to play next gen with shaders 3.0 enabled with 0 issues.

If u dont know what im referring to in this comment np just ignore it :v
