I played Tomb Raider (2013) mostly to test out some new hardware and make sure it was working correctly. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the game itself.

General Gameplay Loop
This being a linear adventure game means the gameplay loop is pretty much the same - story cutscene, linear movement, some parkour, maybe a puzzle, with combat sections sprinkled in. This is not a bad loop though it means everyone's experience will be basically identical save for the combat. The story doesn't make a ton of sense but I guess that's not really the point of these kinds of games.

I finished the main story of the game and intend to go back and get what achievements I'm able to. Note that many achievements are unobtainable due to requiring the online mode which is no longer available.

The difficulty is pretty low, I started on normal but bumped it to hard after finding you're a bit of a bullet sponge. I find the combat pretty fun.

Despite this game being pretty old, I still recommend it. It has its flaws, the story is illogical, and the game is pretty short for a AAA game (I completed the main story in 10 hours), meaning they use the collectibles and whatnot to boost the playtime. But, it's still worth a play.

This game is unlike any other I've ever played, and it will go down as one of my favorite games of all time.
Don't click the spoilers if you haven't played.

Like many others have said before me - go into it blind. Do not look up anything, because you can only truly experience this game once. If you know what you're doing, you can go from a totally fresh save file to getting the "true" ending in < 22 minutes

This isn't your generic "explore the world" game... this is game belongs in a category all on it's own. Never have I felt emotionally attached to a species I've never met, and never will meet. *ahem*

Not to mention, the music. There's this one track that plays in tune with a specific event after a set amount of time, and hearing it for the first time in conjunction with that event was just....wow.

I cannot recommend this game more. Please, play it.

This game is like Anime mario party.

And it's amazing.

I'd recommend you play with 4 people. Makes it all the more chaotic and crazy.
Prepare to get angry. This game can really mess with you.

10/10

Great custom zombies, plenty of maps to choose from.
The campaign is fun, but bring friends.
Multiplayer is pretty much dead IMO, results may vary.

this game sucks

Very fun, do not buy.
i am editing this just for the 2016 steam awards XP
