Tomb Raider GOTY

This is a console game ported to PC. Expect SEVERE problems with 'keyboard & mouse' input. The input problem will kill you routinely. Get used to using the 'reload checkpoint' option. Also, with the keys not registering when pressed, getting past the QuickTime Action scenes is almost impossible.

I played only about 7 levels into the game and the game itself was ok, but one mechanism killed my shoulder and I had to give it up. it is this stupid mechanism where you have to keep holding the right mouse button in order to aim a weapon. In the course of a few hours this caused severe muscle pain in my right arm and I suffered from substantial pain for the next weeks, got syringes etc. I dont understand why it was not possible to automatically show the crosshair when you pull a weapon instead of forcing someone to keep the right mouse button hold down for minutes? Maybe I am more sensitive to this than others but it ruined the game for me , as well as my health for the next month. It's a pity because I would have liked to finish it, but I immediately deinstalled the game after that and wont play it ever again (maybe with joysticks).

The game itself is an ok action game with a decent story and characters. The most fun thing about the game is exploring the island. I never played the old Tomb Raider games, so I can't really make a comparison, but I heard the puzzles in the older ones were better and I did notice there weren't that many interesting puzzles in this. Overall I would still say the singpleplayer is quite decent. However, there's a problem with this version of the game... It doesn't have multiplayer! That's right this game actually has a relatively fun multiplayer mode and it's only available in the Steam version. Although the amount of players is relatively low, even 8 years after release I was able to get into games with people and had a good time with it. Even 1v1 was quite fun, in my opinion. I can imagine it being really fun with a group of friends... I do prefer DRM-free games, but not when they are missing big features! I can only recommend buying this one on Steam.

The original version of Tomb Raider 2013 ran on windows XP; this one does not. Why GoG goes out of its way to make so many games that worked fine on XP upon original retail release inaccessible to their consumers in the degraded version GoG creates is beyond me.

我在 Mac App Store 和 Steam里都买了这个游戏，现在 Steam 必须通过 VPN 访问，我想把之前买的很多游戏都重新在 GOG 买一份非加密版的，但是其他平台都有 Mac 版，为什么这里好多本来支持 MacOS 的游戏都没有 Mac 版了呢？感觉非常不被重视，被歧视了。
