I tried multiple times that swan dive + O for the roll on TR1 on PS Vita. It does not make her do that flippy thing after her dive though, is this only in future games or is it really just a mod? Or am I messing up somehow?

I have never known that move to be a thing on PSOne.

Oh, you mean when you press square + R1 and while diving down, press O? If so. Then I don’t think that animation wasn’t featured on TR1. Tomb Raider 2 is the first with that feature. Congratulations on your wedding by the way, I wish you and Joey the very best!

I'll try it on TR2 then. I can't believe after how many times I've played these games I never knew of that move after the dive

Also thank you

You’re very welcome. I did the move first time when I was 11 on Floating Islands and it looked awesome. Classic Lara at her best. I miss the old Tomb Raider games

He then proceeded to return to then weird and make Lara her most sexualised in game she had ever been, he is credited with her redesign in legend by CD. TR is his baby but he left twice voluntarily? I think not.

Also, he is not solely responsible for Lara. Lara was a group effort of Core and without the rest of those members of vote we would have had a male indiana Jones rip off first and a Sarah Connor-Esque Latina chick in the second incarnation before Core had him redesign her into what we now know and now lived her as. Lara spent more time being developed without Toby than with him. There is no spark without fire and thank you for your service to Toby but I cannot sit by and let people talk about him as fin he were solely responsible for Lara because it’s completely untrue.

These are the kind of takes as to why I visit and love this site.

Yes I agree with others: the dice roll was only introduced in TR2. Unfortunately there are a few more places to pull it off in Tr1 than 2 so it’s a shame really. I also miss the continuous falling scream in TR1 which was removed in subsequent games.

Ive been playing the Max Payne games again and i cant tell you how often i think about Tomb Raider with that gunplay.

Or in general more games with the Gunplay of Max Payne, i love it.
It feels so good and smooth, looks stylish and effective...im really enjoying the hell out of gunfights in the Max Payne series.

Add a bit of acrobatics and i could see that work on Tomb Raider.

WET is pretty much just that. Rubi swings on poles etc.

It was such a fun game! It had an awesome soundtrack.

Why are you doing this to me right now?

I was just getting to the point where i accepted that WET is a thing of the past never to be seen again, you bring it back now and im sad that we never get a second one.

I dont know if WET would be the best approach since the stylish combat and all would probably force the game into a similar type of platforming...and im not sure that is what would work for Tomb Raider.

But yeah, it would look really cool...not neccessary in the reboot universe i think, that is more grounded.
So the weight behind max paynes gunfights would fit a bit better i think...but more WET would help us all so very much. XD
