Tomb Raider GOTY

This is a great action video game, very gore and very violent. Once you've started you never stop before reaching the end, always with bated breath and never getting bored. However, it has one major flaw, namely that of being called TOMB RAIDER, given that it has nothing to do with the latter. ADVISED!

Świetna gra - mimo kilku lat na karku grafika nadal na wysokim poziomie. Historia - czyli to co tu najważniejsze - bardzo wciągająca. Jest to jedna z niewielu gier, którą zdecydowałem się ukończyć na 100%, a znajdowanie wszystkich ukrytych przedmiotów wcale nie było nużące. Wszystko dzięki niezłemu zróżnicowaniu lokacji.

Or press F. Or mash F. Or press E. But only in a very specific moment, otherwise you'll light a torch. And sometimes it's hard to tell if you're in a cutscene, or you're about to die, because you didn't start moving right after the cutscene apparently ended. It's a fairly fun game. Somewhat linear, but it's all right. The graphics are nice, jumping around and scoring headshots is quite enjoyable. But the QTEs and button mashing are the horse fly in the creme brulee.

Daję 5 gwiazdek, bo historia była naprawdę dobra, wciągająca i aż chciało się wiedzieć, co dalej. Dużo emocji przy niewiadomej, który z członków ekipy zginie, często spotykani wrogowie i fajne jest to, że nie wystawi się nieświadomie przypadkiem na ostrzał, bo z wyprzedzeniem słychać ich rozmowy, genialne. Dialogi w ogóle są ciekawe, świat jest świetny i aż chce się go eksplorować już po skończeniu gry, chociaż denerwuje mnie to, że po skończeniu i zbieraniu znajdziek nadal wyskakują mi nagle z czapy wrogowie. Wygląd Lary jest cudowny, jej przerysowana sylwetka ze starych gier była dużo gorsza, tutaj wygląda naturalnie, a nadal jest bardzo ładna. No i liczą się przede wszystkim umiejętności rozwijane podczas rozgrywki :D

It's one of very few games that I wanted to finish most of it. At the end I had like ~95% completion. I had lot of fun with it, good for 80% prize. Pros: - diverse world - it's a place of different cultures & sceneries - huge part of collectibles are good - each relics & documents give you some information & image interlocked with main "story", they are not huge amount of them, some of them are in harder to reach places - exploration requires some little thinking, it's not just "press some key" to climb some building like in first Assassin creed. - Most fights weren't very long and had few different things to show. - Characters (mainly through "documents") aren't very boring. Not something very memorable but they more or less fit into story. - puzzles are not very hard - some tombs have interesting puzzles - from time to time game changes from shooter/stealth game to something else. It's not always great but it's novelty Cons: - requiring certain tool/weapon makes you go back to certain places or go back to thing with a new tool/weapon. At least it's mainly at the beginning of the game. - Sometimes you just have to press a key to move. There is no danger or other interesting things. - Fights not very diverse. You shoot some random guys when they are in larger group. With smaller group you can: 1) kill some guys stealthily and finish them later with other methods. 2) try to blind them and attack them with in CQC situation (requires some upgrades) - mash E to do some stuffs - fast travel is not nice. You can only travel when you are in specific places. - Collecting stuffs is boring -> later in a game even you have all tools and know what to do you still have to do many stuffs - Hunting just gives you some stuffs & exp. I think there is only one situation where heroine needs meat. - some upgrades are not very noticeable - few times game requires you to do exact things to reach certain place even when you should be able to do it other way (e.g. she won't grab edges).
