The grand finale to the reboot trilogy, not without flaws but still a very solid game.
This time we get to explore the absolutely breathtaking jungles of Peru and uncover Mayan secrets!

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the best looking one so far. Graphics, shadows and the environment, just beautiful.
The gameplay loop is known by now, after 2 games we are used to the formula. Very smooth with nice additions to both combat and stealth.
The story was decent enough and Lara Croft's character development carried over from the prequels.
(I don't get anyone playing this game first without playing the prequels, and then complaining about character motives..)
The challenge tombs and additional tombs spoiled me with so much content! Each one unique and memorable, even more than in the prequels. Reminded me how much I loved exploring the tombs in the EARLY Assassin's Creed games.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is action-packed to the brim like the prequels, Lara is a crazy daredevil that leaps into the darkness without knowing if she will land. The universe as usual conspires against her and the literal floor under her feet is breaking right behind her. Suspension of disbelief is a requirement by now, without it you'll be criticizing every hair.

The prequels suffered from ludo-narrative dissonance as most modern games do, an innocent victim protagonist just trying to survive but obliterating dozens in her way. But this time Lara Croft is on a warpath and from a sneaky jungle PREDATOR turns into the literal machine-gun wielding TERMINATOR. (The devs didn't even hide it xD)
I repeat once again: if B.J. Blazkowicz & Nathan Drake can do it in "Wolfenstein" & "Uncharted", why not Lara Croft?

It would have been as enthralling as the prequels, but it felt a bit unpolished in comparison.
(No, the developers did not cut corners but they knew this was the end of the trilogy and they would not get to make another Tomb Raider game afterwards, so what investors were there to impress? We gamers are happy as long as everything works and is up to the standard set by the previous games.)

For a triple-A game, this is a very decent product. Games like this are rare and not made anymore.
Nowadays we only have failing live-service trash that is removed from stores after a single week like Concord.
Appreciate the good that we have, because I know in 30-50 years when people will come back to play the rebooted Tomb Raider trilogy, it will become an undeniable cult classic.
"Blade Runner" and John Carpenter's "The Thing" were also not appreciated in their time, look at them now.


The entire trilogy has been an adventurer's dream filled with tons of lore, mythology and history.
An intense action-filled experience that reinvigorated the franchise...
It will be decades until the next reincarnation of GOOD Tomb Raider games!

ok. so this franchise basically tells us that no ancient temple/ruin in the world is safe from her

Игра была бы очень хорошей, но
Очень много багов!!!
Как в DLC так и в самой игре.
Привыкли прыгать с самого края, чтобы точно допрыгнуть? Ха! Здесь так не выйдет, по крайней мере не всегда. Приходится подстраиваться под кривые скрипты.
Баг в DLC, который делает прохождение невозможным. Баги во время прохождения сюжета, когда приходится перезагружать игру и выбирать предыдущие сохранения ...

Да и по сюжету Лара весьма инфантильна... ОСТОРОЖНО, можно поставить синяк на лбу от её решений.

Крч поиграть можно, но лучше пробежать по сюжету и забыть, чем дольше играешь ,тем больше выбешивает кривизна этого продукта!
