Default Am I the only one who HATES Ireland?

The levelset, not the country, obviously.

The "ambience" of the place which everyone loves does not make up for the completely dull gameplay. I've played it many a time, but on my most recent playthrough, I simply downloaded a savefile from Stella to avoid having to play it. The first time I ever played the game, Gallows Tree was so boring that I stopped playing the entire game. I didn't know about VCI Levels or savefiles, so I didn't know what more there was to play. Also, Lara's voice, though I know they tried to make her sound younger - like 16 - she sounds like an 8 year old. The only commendable things in the whole section were the changelings - which were satisfyingly creepy, and the Library sections with fire and stuff.

But otherwise, I hate them. Rainy, with an omnipresent gloom. Reminds me far too much of Britain.

*prepares for backlash*

Yes you are.
Karl Stewart is irish isn't he? Along with a member here called irishhips. They'll cry to sleep reading this thread and it's all on you.



About the level, it's one of my favorite. Young Lara adventures are always fun.

Here's how you'll want to do Gallows Tree:

She approaches the End_level from the wrong side.

I love Ireland, though yes Labyrinth is terrible, and so is Lara's voice. No 16-year-old sounds like that.

I really like Ireland. Not the best part of Chronicles, but a good one nevertheless. The atmosphere is just so incredible.

Yes Ireland for me is challenging and I love the Old Mill level.

IMO I don't like the Russia Levels, they are boring and I don't deepsea dive, i think its stupid.
