Current Lara is shit compared to the original Lara.

...

Dropping some TR2 webms

nu-lara never welcome

...

>nu lara welcome
shit thread

Cool

...

...

What's the nude raider code?

...

I like nu Lara's looks. But everything else about her is. Bad.

...

Played it for the first time recently and couldn't believe all that shit was in the first level

i didn't like that as the series progressed, the games featured more and more human enemies.

They assumed you've played the first game and built everything ontop of that.

I was thinking that but then nothing else was ever really that urgent/intense

old lara is so much better than nu lara. Why does she even exist ;__;

Two words
Maria Doria

I always thought her name was Tom Braider and the title was an anagram to that.

You'll have to be more specific. I don't remember many constant strings of traps on it. Just lots of puzzles and shooting.

The game gets harder sure, but even this webm from the late game has the same urgency as the first level.

>You'll have to be more specific

Sharks
On constant struggle with oxygen
Can't see shit

And alligators.

Ah the sharks and alligators were never really an issue since you could swim faster than them and there was always somewhere to jump out and shoot them. The asshole divers were worse but outmaneuverable as well.

Oxygen sure but you could always go back to the last place you got air.

And you can use flares to see.

My point was about times where you have to do a string of actions perfectly and on the spot because of spikes or the floor dropping out from under you or whatever.

could anyone in this thread post the live-action WEBM of old lara sniffing new lara and new lara breaking down and crying?

How do I get a gf that looks like Lara?

Only in Balamb Garden.

Haha what?
Ask karima out.

What?

I saw it once and I should have saved it. Two actual live action women dressed up, one as old Lara and one as New Lara, the old Lara is a lot taller and towers over new lara, lookslike new Lara up and down, messes with her hair or something, then new lara breaks down and cries lol. Not only was it hilarious cuz it showed the personality of the two lara's it was one of the most boner inducing moments ever. I've looked all over the internet for it, no luck

I bought Tomb raider 1 out of nostalgia on steam the other day, plugged in my 360 controller and launched the game after paying 5€.
Firstly, I realized it's a shitty msdos emulator, not a port of any sort, it's buggy and crashed a few times.
Secondly, only a few buttons are recognized, game is unplayable with my controller...

And I paid five fucking euris for this SHIT, and here I thought I wasn't gonna emulate it on epsxe just to be fair with a game I've cherished as a kid and bought with the PlayStation, I was okay to pay this much money for a '96 something game, AND HERE'S MY FUCKING REWARD.

FUCkING HELL

tl;dr don't buy the old TR on steam it's a fucking scam.

More like tl;dr:
Don't buy ANY old games on steam period.

Either get them from GOG or pirate, that works in 99% of cases.

Also keyboard is much better for the classic Tomb Raider games.

Like any old game it needs a bit of tinkering. Someone went ahead made a wrapper for it that works quite well. Should have used it.

Yeah, I think she looks good and I like her voice but her personality makes for a poor protagonist.

I like Anniversary and Legend best. I've played too many good 3D platformers that the original games' controls and sluggishness are undefendable, while the new ones are just Uncharted but injected with anti-fun. QTEs were a mistake.

How is that top-down one?

There's nothing wrong or sluggish with the older controls.
You only don't like it because it's not analog movement.

It's puzzle movement, appropriate for a puzzle game. Takes skill

>Old and Nu Lara welcome
This will never work, old lara manchildren are just not to be reasoned with.

>There's nothing wrong or sluggish with the older controls.
It's been a while but I distinctly remember mantling and backward steps being pointlessly slow. And the limited movement made small adjustments into big deals. Platforming feels artificially extended because of these design decisions.

The thing is that despite this truth, they masquerade as adventure games. And sometimes as action games.

They are all those things.

Mantling takes as long as it does for a human to do it. If you think the climbing/mantling animations shown in webms in this thread are pointlessly slow then I totally disagree. Ditto with small adjustments. The level design is built around the control options you have.

I'll agree it all falls apart when it starts depending on combat though.

>Shitty controls are puzzle movement
I have to write that one down. Brilliant.

I like both. Go fuck yourself.

>he's never played the original Prince of Persia

Shitty controls would have no rhyme or reason, or something to that affect.

Tomb Raiders controls can be learned and mastered. Dumbass

What a surprise that a loser that still plays these games has adapted to the controls, wow. I'm convinced.

TR3 is the best.

3 is fine. I disliked how 2 and 3 focus more on shooting guys and non tomb areas.

I still like 1 the best because of how quiet it stays for as long as it does

I hate when people call games "comfy" but tomb raider 1 is definitely a comfy game.

Retarded hipster fags think that pic related is worse than a bunch of triangles and low textured something

I'd like to see that get hit by a car.

The devs took that on board for the 4th game, the level size/design and backtracking was crazy.

Being so much hipster that saying that is more attractive than pic related
