It's the marmite of TR2; some people love the section and some people hate it.

The eel scares me every time and I will throw my body on the coffin, so to speak, if that eel was to ever be cut from the game

Core placed the eel there so that Living Quarters had, at least, one redeeming aspect.

It's NOT enough, Core. No matter how loved that eel is, it can't save the whole level! What else does the level have!? The pistons???

Anyone find it weird that some of the Reboot stuff like the Omnibus is on Kindle but not the old Core-Design Era books?

Does Square not have the rights to them?

Would have hated The Deck instead haha but that one was kinda terrifying aswell with the flamethrower dude and the huge pit of water with the lots of sharks.

Nothing like the 2 sharks and the 3 barracudas family in Wreck of the Maria Doria :'(

I dread that moment. Jumping right into the sharks' jaws. Ignoring whether they are directly below Lara before jumping. Even seeing them swimming while Lara is on the other side of the glass is terrifying. The blue, black and white palette also adds a lot to the idea of imminent death.

Beautiful.

I don't remember that section very well even after seeing some pictures but it must have been freaky for me too. These Maria Doria levels made me have PTSD when getting underwater in pretty much any TR game. TRU underwater section was a bit freaky for me too with the lunging sharks, they're damn pretty quick.

Oh, no! Don't let the Maria Doria ruin it all for you. In the end, it's a bunch of pixels programmed to deplete Lara's health bar!

...if only I followed my own advice...

Default Attic Raider

Just needed somewhere to express my excitement and anticipation that I've made arrangements to go raid Mumsie's attic to get my old playstation 3 down and TR LAU <3

Following this I'm taking a week of work to play to my hearts content
