There is a mod called AOD Restoration Project, which is a MUST (available for the english and german version of the game). But with this mod u can even play with a xbox controller and u can choose between pc tank controls, ps2 original and LAU Modern. Dont know what the difference between ps2 and lau is, but I can play this game pretty well with LAU and my xbox controller. I didn't play the older tomb raiders nor the remastered version, but i think the controls here are pretty similar to the modern control scheme in the Tomb Raider Remastered, but the level structure actually supports a playstyle with these controls. Now for the game. U have decisions in some conversations and u have to gain strength to do some actions and u have a stamina bar during climbing or hanging on the edge of a ledge. While all these are gimmicky it gives the game a somewhat feeling of a superlight RPG. The graphics are fine, especially for Lara are enough mods available with good textures. only the prerendered cutscenes do look unbelievably bad imho. The conversations are very bad, it doesn't feel like actual dialogs and imho the english VA is terrible (german does sound better, but still not good). But combining these dialogs with the voice acting makes it pretty fun to listen to this trash. So no complaints. And the levels itself are sometimes a bit hard to read. I had to watch a walkthrough two times to being able to continue the level. But otherwise I had a lot of fun to walk and climb around. Give it a try, recommended and not too long anyways.
