Tomb Raider: Legend

Compared to good old Tomb Rider (1-3), it's a pile of shit. I really don't like the new control model. This is very imprecise and therefore very annoying.

1) Broken cheap code that barely works. 2) Awfull game direction, level design and overall quality of execution: a) Camera is uncontrollable, picks worst angles possible, stiff, intrusive and might easily give you a headache. b) Obviously incompetent game design. - Poorly tested triggers. - Cluncky grappling hook. Sometimes it's automatic sometimes it's not, and sometimes it won't even work on specified object mid air killing you. - Acrobatics are awfull. No general direction, timed windows are miniscule, sometimes it's not working at all (and I mean it). Game sometimes won't react to buttons pressed and sometimes it (acrobatics) goes with puzzle sequence... - And pussles are 82% of pure Thorndike's puzzle box, 10% of "Was that a pussle?" And 8% of just dying of developers not knowing how to setup a system of clues. - Bosses are mostly "shoot untill it dies". And a couple of examples of same abscent explaination. Tesla coil boss sequence in particular is absolutely beyond any reason - people responsible for stuff like that in games should be fired. - It's normal (in this game) to stumble upon secret when you're just looking for exit out of the room. It's TOO easy. - Redundant QTEs from times when people didn't know how to make them (most don't know it now either, however). c) Saves for some reason are bad. Checkpoints (autosaves) right before cutscenes that might be unskipable. 3) Lighting is just bad.(I had to cut the explaination due to GoG restrictions) 4) Lara is not sexy - she's a creepy bubblehead (just like any other woman in this game)! I didn't have problems with general direction and plot. The game overal was fun but it is obvious that at this point devs were not competent at all. I can't get over the fact that I support game design like this and not like it was in reboot with better conrols, not abscent puzzle deign, (peculliaar death animations), and general level design and direction. Well, at least here Lara wasn't a whiny teenager...

Unable to play the game as it crashes to desktop after nvidia logo.. tried many fixes but didnt work.. Didnt expect this from GOG.. Request GOG to fix this or post a solution

After trying all the fixes I could find online, the game still crashes at start, so I'm not even able to get into the menu. Shame, I have fond memories of this game. So please just be aware the game might no work on your computer.

Really wanted to play this, but on Windows 11 Home, this thing crashes on the very first text screen title, and it doesn't just crash the game, it crashes the entire system with a 30000 series GPU requiring a hard restart (CTRL ALT DEL doesn't do anything, it won't let you even get into the screen where you END TASK), and the Windows key won't minimize the game either. On Steam you would get a refund, here, I won't bother asking as I don't think GOG even offers any type of refund. Waste of money down the drain, won't be buying old games on here, as this is SECOND time a game was completely untested and sitting on GOG as if its a viable game.
