Only for tomb raider and dark souls fans
Lovely atmosphere, mundane but entertaining enough combat, decent story even if kitsch at points and an interesting protagonist. So what made me hate it in the end? The no map, walkthrough aspect. I´m not someone who plays games in one sitting. I also dont like handholding, this game hates handholding and that´s good, but it also fails giving players somewhat the tools to selfdirect. You have several hub worlds, kind of like dark souls, you have to find a certain level of souls to enter certain worlds to progress through portals, how you progress is more open than it first seems, good BUT level design can be very confusing SOMETIMES. Which, together with several portals strewn around several hub worlds, creates A SHIT TON OF BACKTRACKING. Once you forgot where this one portal is, and you dont have a map in the beginning or at all, haven´t played far enough, and you can´t even mark it yourself on a map like in deus ex, you get lost and maybe just instead of backtracking want to look up a walkthrough.The real answer to this is to go full old school and write down all the portals in each hub world on a notepad with pencil and paper. Also, the game can say fuck you sometimes. Some bossfights are garbage. Platforming in this game is MEH. feels like improved early tomb raider bad and in the temple bossfight, you literally have to jump from platform to platform with one shot kill lava all around you . Actually harder than dark souls for me and not entertaining or fun at all. There´s actually more bad than good. I mean the remaster job is godlike, but the actual game didn´t age well. What aged well is atmosphere. And atmosphere alone. The game failed to give me reasons to explore, just mundane collectible shit for powerups and level ups. I wish I would have researched more before buying it. Not my cup of tea. Old school tomb raider and dark souls fans will love it though I´m sure. So be warned, unfair platforming, mediocre combat, and confusing levels. Notepad + Pencil!
