This is the TR game I like the most out of the original core design games, and with definitive edition patch it plays so much better. it has the least confusing and most believable level designs and great presentation, it feels like a culmination of everything core learned while working on the previous 5 games. a shame some of its elements were clearly rushed (eg: boring empty paris level, accidentally saving in a ****** spot like in Hall of Seasons, that Lara "upgrades" system, unfinished stealth and the controls being super dated for 2003)

Was that “next generation Lara” model from E3 that was found ever actually used in early development for AOD or was it just for that demonstration. I remember hearing that a years worth of development had to be scrapped at the beginning when the other team members finished Chronicles and came back, has any of that year 1 scrapped content ever been shown online?

From what I know, the very early version was supposed to be some kind of open world game.(Which they scrapped that)
And probably it was supposed to have that Lara's friend instead of Von Croy.(Who looked similar to a real life archeologist)

Uploaded a video showcasing different Kurtis models during the AoD development.

The beard line around the head looks terrible haha

Early design all look terrible I'm glad they came up with the final one for his face. For the clothes they had nice ideas, the black turtle neck actually looks very nice on him !

Thank you for doing this video, it's very well done and we get to see everything very clear !

Funny how this turtle neck sweater Kurtis looks almost exactly like Kyle Madigan from Parasite Eve 2, just adding the weird beard line.

Dumb question, but how do you kill friendly characters again using SCU?

I commented on the video on YT. Interesting how he seems to be almost a different ethnicity.

Hmm, I've never played TR Angel of Darkness, I heard that it was very buggy plus I had a friend that owned a copy and he said it was buggy as h***. If a version of the game comes out without the bugs I'll try it.

You dont know what you missing. The story, the music, the gameplay, the art. Embrace the bugs, and enjoy! Look at the traod definitive edition, see: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...d.php?t=227584

This is the best game Core Design made. The weird controls is to add to the difficulty.
