Tomb Raider: Underworld

The strangest part of the game is its first few minutes, where I simply could not get past the loading screen. It took a good while of googling and PCGamingWiki shenanigans. IIRC it was fancy reg editing and also naming the exe to DXHR.exe (Deus Ex Human Revolution) from a Steam Discussion to make AMD apply correct settings to play the game. The platforming engine itself may remind you of Legend, trying to have too much variety that the core gameplay feels too punishing with certain long climbing/shimmying sections that make you lose a few minutes' worth of progress when making mistakes. Maybe I'm just impatient, and the demo available on the internet can help you decide better. Now, if the cover art isn't giving it away to you, Lara is most sexualized in this game. The first real level of the game (also the first hour) has Lara in a revealing diving suit to find an underwater ruin, but she doesn't even have flippers on, opting to go through avoiding the deathtraps within barefooted when she gets out of the water. Subsequent land levels also let you choose if you want her to wear longer or shorter pants, which is really nice. The dirty effects on her model as she goes through levels is well done and invites you to enjoy how she looks. I'm not saying this aspect of the game is bad, just that you have to keep it in mind when making your purchase. On the other hand the 2013 reboot goes a different direction where it's revealed she's a Terminator in disguise, but you do get clothes that cover more of the body fitting the activities and less "ogle positions" (let's just say the underwater cave in Underworld has some sus-looking climbing sections). Overall it's classically frustrating experience, but you do get to look at Lara a lot as she goes through the paces. Feel free to use mods and the menu-hook if you find yourself being too frustrated to have fun.

This game is so good and i was hoping gog version would solve some of the previous technical issues i used to have with this game. I have msi 390 and i7 4790k with 32 gb ddr 3 Ram, latest windows 10 update... i have vsync and triple buffering turned on...all other settings at max...shouldn't be a problem for my computer but the game stutters like crazy...it freezes randomly to 10 or 15 fps and then it automatically runs super smooth...even the game's loading screen does that...freezes, stutters, runs super smooth...very disappointed! Not a deal breaker, you can still play the game perfectly, it's just that these issues should have been ironed out...anyway, hopefully, gog will patch the game in the future. I still recommend the game since it's so cheap!

Steine, die wie Luftballons durch die Gegend fliegen und im Wasser landen, von wo sie nicht mehr in den Rätselbereich zu bekommen sind machten das ganze zu einem kurzen Vergnügen. Aber auch die kurze Zeit offenbarte grausame Kamerasteuerung und allgemein ein Handling, das den Vorgänger als das eigentliche Meisterwerk adelt. Falls ich mal sehen will, wie die geschichte ausgeht schaue ich mir wohl ein Let's Play an anstatt es mit der Steuerung nochmals zu versuchen.

Tolles Spiel nur diese Steurung lässt einen verzweifeln, da bekommst echt nen anfall bei ^^

im erdsten Kapitel Rätsel 2 ist die Spielsteuerung ist fehelerhaft
