![]() ![]() the skills section is the core of the game, it should drive the game and make it fun to play, it gives you an incentive to accrue skill points. this is one of my biggest annoyances about the game. also along with the pointless changes of the menus visual appearance there was a failure to expand and change the skills that can be obtained. this is a minor annoyance but i do not understand why they include tiny thumbnails that are too small to see if you have to click on them to see what they actually look like. the outfit menu does not allow you to see the outfit unless you click in it to wear it. i enjoyed the previous menu that felt tactical and organised as opposed to the multicoloured mess found in this game. i enjoyed seeing the artefacts pop up on screen when i found them, now they do not and feel pointless. i will add that the changes made to the menu are to me atrocious. outside of combat you explore various towns and segments of jungle that are visually confusing and look so similar that it makes its large size more a tedious factor than a cause for celebration. Im not sure why but the jungle enviroments of this game just feel inferior to the ice and snow enviroments of the last, they are messy, confusing and sadly i find them slightly boring. ![]() you can cover yourself in mud for camouflage which sounds a lot more fun than it is because the enviroments are so much more linear. you run and jump and climb, but now you can also use a rope to lower yourself and swing which becomes pretty tedious. This game clones most of the character actions in the first game. what i loved about the last game was how lara would suddenly tense up and the danger could be either a pack of wolves or a group of people, this game doesnt have that same sense of random danger, it feels much more linear to its detriment. the snowy enviroments carried their own feeling and to me despite the maps in this game feeling larger they feel barren in comparison. What i loved about the second game was the atmospheric environments. especially the more expensive version which simply gives access to outfits from the old games without any of their benefits along with more powerful enhanced versions of your basic weapons which makes upgrading any of the other equipment a pointless activity, thus taking away from the fun found in the first game. ![]() So if your coming to this game from the last one id have to advice you not to buy. ![]()
