I don˙t understand what kind of big changes people want or expect

Rise add new things and improved on others:
- larger tombs
- more challenging puzzles compared to TR 2013
- swimming
- more stealth sections
- more methods to perform stealth kills
- grapple axe
- climbing arrows
- side missions
- possibility to craft arrows and other items
- craft explosive cans and molotov cocktails
- traps

But people still complained: „ They changed nothing, they improved nothing„

Now we have been told and seen for Shadow
-underwater exploration
-larger tombs
-deadlier traps
-wall running
-rappel
-no white ledges on hard mode

And people still fear it is going to be the same like Rise when it comes to gameplay.
For real, what are those big changes people want? Wings for Lara? To give her supernatural power? A laser sword and a new name: Darth Raider?

I have to agree. Rise improved upon TR2013, and, from what we've already seen and heard, Shadow is going to improve upon Rise. I don't see how that isn't enough for some... This is a trilogy of games, things are going to be similar. Things will most likely change a lot more after Shadow, but I personally don't understand how some people expect/want huge changes after every single game. A trilogy of games are going to be rather similar. If you changed each game too much, people probably wouldn't recognise them as continuations. Just my view, though.

It's still a trilogy. So expecting huge changes would just lead to big disappointment.

To be completely honest, game really doesn't look fresh, especially compared to some other games out there. Hopefully after Shadow we will get something little different and something that feels fresh.

I think it will be enough for me, but I do wish we had gotten new animations. Otherwise, I’m happy.

Yes, I think it'll be enough.

The other 2 reboots have been worth at least a playthrough. They aren't awful games.

And then it'll be onto the next phase of TR. A new gen will bring freshness and change (how much remains to be seen).

This. I'll give Shadow some slack because of this
