    This whole challenge mode with the cards that change gameplay is very interesting and unique. If I hadn't burnt myself out I'd be playing it a whole bunch. I don't think I've ever seen a singleplayer experience cater this much to replayability without forcing you into a second playthrough. Now all games ever give you is "New Game+" which is usually just "Hey keep all the stuff you unlocked and play the game again." which is dumb imo. Also, this game is long, detailed, and very pretty at parts but only takes up 14.89 GB on my hard drive for the whole game and it's DLC. How did they do that? They should really teach some of these other studios how to make games.

    Put that up as one of the worst final boss battles I've ever played. Right next to Bioshock.

    Getting a bit frustrated with parts of this game where I spend 20-30 minutes platforming to something I can't access at the moment cause of some dumb blockage or ability I don't have yet. Like literally sometimes I can see the marker for it through like a couple rocks and sticks but Lara who was just swinging and jumping all over an ancient tomb that was collapsing on her can't make it around these couple rocks and sticks.

      Editing … Like the little waist high fence in an RPG that makes it impassable despite you just jumping 400ft in the air and tombstoning a 60ft boss.

    Just got started on this yesterday. I'm hoping they ramp it down a bit. Played it for 30 minutes almost got killed by an avalanche, drowned, exploded, impaled, and shot. I mean chill yo.

      Editing … It's gotten much better now that I'm exploring the world. It actually reminds me a lot of MGS games. I was hiding behind some crates at a snowy base and a helicopter showed up. I was half expecting Lara to say "A Hind D!?!" Story is pretty lame though and the facial expressions of the character models don't really convey the emotion they're trying to get through in these cutscenes.

      Editing … I loved it from the offset. I haven't gotten terribly far through it, but I am looking forward to getting back to it.

      Editing … I really enjoyed the first one and was excited for this but then it ended up as a timed exclusive and just fell off my radar. Just got it as a PS+ freebie. I like that there's not a lot of downtime, there's shit everywhere on the map and you're constantly looking to explore here or there.

      Editing … I played Shadow on PS Now and it totally burned me out for when Rise was given away on Plus. Unless you're absolutely dying for more when you finish Rise I'd suggest waiting on it or skipping it entirely.

      Editing … The plan was to jump into Shadow (also via PS Now) after this but now that I realize how long this game is I'll prob be burnt out by the end. Might roll into some weird indie game after this to cleanse the palette.

    The PS4 version serves as a collection as it includes all of the DLC that had previously been released on the XB1...and it's a meaty collection of fun and challenging content. It's, without a doubt, the most fun I had with a video game in 2016, and already has me chomping at the bit for another Tomb Raider game.

    A little tip: Don't ignore the DLC. It's fantastic!

    It really makes one wonder if upgrading from a four year old GPU is really worth it, if you can play Rise of the Tomb Raider on said gtx 660 with 30 fps and high graphics settings at 1080p. That's more than enough for me.

    Why is everything in this game terrifying. I damn near jumped out my chair when I turned a corner and a goddamn leopard jumped out at me :(

    I forgot how good it was to play games with a headset :D Wandering around a cave in the darkness surrounded by the sound of wolves scrambling back and forth is simultaneously terrifying and hugely enjoyable :p

    Right from the offset, this game already feels more open to exploration. Plus I have been pining for more survival elements in third-person open-world games. I have a real good feeling about this one, and i see it scoring real high. Lara is back, baby! :D

      Editing … Oh, this game is fantastic! There's a ton of content in the PS4 version, and I can definitely see myself returning to this game for the Endurance and Score Attack modes. Actually, let me know if you ever need someone to co-op with in Endurance. I'm sure this is the most fun I've had playing a game all year.

    I love the packaging for this game on PS4 :) It was cool of them to build the artwork into the actual case.
