Tomb Raider Forums - TOMB RAIDER General Discussion Thread

I'm gonna miss weird japanese demons, which leads to my next question; Is the supernatural and magic etc. "banned" from Tomb Raider forever or is it for this game only? I suppose that, going with the realistic point of view it will still be like that, just want to make sure.

Me too, I was initially really excited for the horror aspect of the game. I'm still not convinced that there will be nothing supernatural in the game, TBH. :whi:

Yes, good times. <3

I remember when our only information was this:

Tbh, this must've been the time when I was less excited for this new release. I just didn't see Lara and the Tomb Raiding mixing well with something so dark. I'm glad they eased up on the horror and stayed (more or less) true to the pillars of the original Tomb Raider :o

I've said this many times, but the whole concept of TR in 2009 >>>>

I loved the theme of horror, etc. It does have it's downfalls compared to the new concept, I think the horror feel would've redacted from the story of Lara and how she became her and it would've become more of just trying to kill the monsters and surviving (I wouldn't really care too much, tbh), but I still love the idea of riding a horse and the atmosphere would've made this game stand out so much more, tbh.

I'm still hoping for those creepy monsters in the game.

We NEED these creepy monsters in the game.
I'm gonna be so disappointed if we don't get paranormal/fantasy stuff in TR ;__;

I'm fairly confident you're in for some disappointment. It looks like Crystal can only do gun-toting henchmen. I bet they all look like Eric Lindstrom again :rolleyes::p

Looks like Tomb Raider's gonna have a trailer at the VGA's.

Geoff reveals some of the "exclusives" around the 31:30 mark.

Wasn't sure if this warranted a new thread or not, but it's something to look forward to.

The Last Of Us - definitely. I don't know what south-park is doing here, I've never played a Bioshock game, I've tried out a demo of Tomb Raider, I was completely disappointing, GTA V is awesome but - I'll vote for the game that is the newest - not a rehash nor a sequel. A new IP like no other.

Get him gorls! :p

You mentioned Geoff Keighley, then linked Major Nelson. I think that's why no one said anything ;):p

And that wouldn't be surprising. I closed the window that I was listening to the podcast on when Keighley compared the VGA's to the Oscars. :p It's like he's asking not to be taken seriously.

You should make a thread. When are the VGAs anyways?

If they are. Or if there are more creatures that are unexpected. I will be so so pleased. But I wouldn't want to know about them until I play the game.

I won't deny it's sped up though. But lets not forget that fun is more important than realism when it comes to games. Lara needs to move at a pace that makes the game flow. It's not unrealistic to the point where it's distracting though. Well at least in my opinion.
