    Rise of the Tomb Raider is a great game, but its not a true Tomb Raider game - it feels more the answer of Uncharted competition. As a fan of the original Tomb Raider, it seems the developers have lost their way into a more crowd pleasing title rather than sticking to the game that led the field.

As a fan of the original Tomb Raider, it seems the developers have lost their way into a more crowd pleasing title rather than sticking to the game that led the field. If this game were called something else and Lara a different character I would score it a 10. But because they use the Tomb Raider name, in what is an action packed and at times shoot em up my score is less. Lara was an explorer of Tombs, rather than shooting enemies with sawn off shot guns and placing climbing axes in enemies skulls. The story is about Lara finding peace from her fathers demise, but the story looses focus as she ends up mass killing waves of enemies in brutal fashion. The Tombs are optional, in my mind the Tombs are what the game was always about at heart - working out intricate puzzles to move forward and feeling some sense of satisfaction of working out the logical solutions, discovering ancient mysteries. In all, a great game which is mainly benefiting from Tomb Raider marketing - but not a true Tomb Raider game, a title to please the masses rather than the fans.… Expand

    Fantastic game. Much better than the 2013 version. BUT it's still missing that tomb raider feeling. Lack of "figure a way out of this area to move on" is clearly missing still. Also there are no where near enough tombs. 9 is not enough an neither is 12! Hint hint. But in general the games fab. And it's even better that the multiplayer was scraped. Well done.

I'd recommend this now since the price has dropped, it's a good buy but don't expect it to be game of the year or anything.

    They've built up Lara well as a character, she's coming into her own more with this game. The controls are fine, but sometimes Lara moves on her own without the player's input or does something unexpected. Kind of like the newer assassin's creed games where you feel like more of a passenger than taking an active role in things.

    The challenge tombs have been great, I've completed 7 out of 9 and can easily say it's the best part of the game. If you're going to get this, play the optional tombs. Can't stress that enough Crystal Dynamics has done some really good level design here. If Tomb Raider 3 comes out at some point it will be interesting to see where they go next (hopefully more Tombs and less combat).

    Overall, if you liked the first Tomb Raider reboot this is more of that. It's a good game but short lived and not the best thing out there. But for a quick, fast paced romp that doesn't outstay its welcome this fits the bill!

    Not as strong as I had hoped. Somewhat broken even after a sizable update on launch day. The linear "tutorial" part in the very beginning was some what frustrating as it felt like the controls where not quite as smooth as the last game. I kept dying during QuickTime events and when I finally past it I swear I was doing the exact same thing I had been trying every time I died.

    I don't think that the visuals are ground breaking and so far the story telling is trite at best. Both of these issues are really too bad as the last entry to this game was excellent with both.

    If I had to simply sum up the game it would be, "remember the last game? Good because you will be doing exactly the same thing in almost the exact same locations at the same pace as the last game with a slightly less compelling story.

    The one thing that is being pond off as this cool new feature is the "natives" have tasks for you. While completing them gives you more to do and helps you level up I think you could get away with not doing them, but honestly why wouldn't you. This is after all a Tomb Raider game and helping out put you in a position to explore.    … Expand

    The several technical limitations of the xbox one console take a toll on this game. The game itself is really well done and, despite not having an old school tomb raider feel, it's a proper successor to the 2013 reboot.
    As I said, the only downside is due to the console poor performance and not the game's fault.

    I mean, the game is fun and all, and the story is decent, but as a open world game, it commits two sins. First, there's nothing much going on in each area. There are human settlements here and there and you can see animals walking around, but that's about it. 85% of the time it'll be just you and the great outdoor that is pretty to look at, but there is nothing going on.

The only time stuff is happening are those only-happens-once action sequences and occasional enemy soldiers chatting.

    Two, it loses replay value. Once you get all the challenges, collectibles, and gear upgrades, there really is nothing else to do. Oh there are side missions, but they all utilizes the basic mechanics of the game such as track something down, hunt animals, shoot something, etc. Since it lacks "do whatever you want" style like GTA 5, the only thing left to do is starting a new game, and begin the cycle all over again.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Nuestra inmortal Lara Croft.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider es la nueva aventura de nuestra amiga Lara, donde en esta ocasión nos situamos en la fría Siberia y buscamos el secreto de la inmortalidad, impresionante verdad pues la verdad no tanto como analizaremos a continuación.

    Crystal Dynamics la empresa desarrolladora nos vuelve a sorprender un su saga Tomb Raider. Lara luce más real que nunca y controlarla es una completa maravilla, nuevos movimientos, nuevos objetos, sistema de crafting, etc hacen que este título destaque un su aspecto jugable. Es completamente opuesta a mi anterior reseña "Life is Strange" donde critiqué duramente la poca jugabilidad de ese juego. El apartado artístico, diseño de niveles, secuencias de acción, exploración son muy buenas sin duda estan en lo más alto, conforman una demo técnica que muy pocos pueden igualar y menos aun superar.

    En este análisis no caeremos en lo habitual de compararlo con otros títulos de la saga o de otras franquicias, considero que cada obra debe ser juzgada por lo que es y no por lo que otros esperan que sea. Es sin duda ambicioso y en tu recorrido sentirás la sensación de progresión del personaje y por supuesto tu propia progresión como jugador, si bien antes destaque su aspecto jugable también es importante destacar que posee fallos, uno de ellos es la dificultad de los combates la cual es bastante baja lo que obliga a modificar la jugabilidad al nivel más alto para sentir un nivel de desafío aceptado.

    Dentro de los defectos del título están su historia algo simplona y que no sorprende en la más mínimo, personajes secundarios clichés y un desenlace que se huele desde la primera mitad del juego. Estos puntos son un fallo que arrastra desde el anterior reboot. El multijugador es un relleno innecesario para este genero, en este caso nos encontramos con un modo desafío individual que invitan a repetir secciones del juego con un set de cartas que varían la experiencia inicial. Lamentablemente el juego posee micro-transacciones para obtener dichos sets de cartas ya que las que se consiguen por jugar la campaña son insuficientes para completarlas todas.

    En resumen Rise of the Tomb Raider es un muy buen título que dejará conforme a varios jugadores, posee un apartado gráfico y sonoro de alto nivel y un excelente sistema de juego. Por el contrario salvo Lara los demás personajes y la historia están por debajo de la media. Recomiendo esta obra para los fans del genero acción/aventura, de la saga y en general siento que es un título que todos deberíamos jugar y juzgar de acuerdo a nuestras propias experiencias.    … Expand

Еще очень впечатлила русская озвучка, которая реализована на очень высоком уровне. Несмотря на море багов и недоработанных деталей, плюсов в этой игре, несомненно больше! Кстати, очень сильно напомнила мне Thief, до сих пор не понял чем именно, но что-то общее есть (кроме жанра). Достижения в игре слишком простые, думаю, что можно было бы придумать что-нибудь и посложнее. ;)

    Что касается DLC, то интересным является только Баба Яга, хотя я и там не понимаю за что отдал такие деньги (это небольшиая сумма, но все равно оно того не стоило), испытание на выносливость добавлять в отдельный контент - низкий поступок со стороны разработчиков, а также камень в огород тем, кто собирается завершить игру на 100% достижений (я вхожу в это число).

    Кстати, пожалуйста, исправьте баг с локацией "Советская база" после прохождения, в центре карты, где спавнятся воины "Троицы" почти всегда один странным образом застревает в текстурах и стоит, словно распятый на кресте. Вторая недоработка, которая сильно бросается в глаза - вынимаемые стрелы, когда я прибил кого-то стрелой, она явно торчит у него в голове, я подхожу и со способности получаю стрелу обратно в инвентарь, однако на теле она до сих пор какое-то время будет находится (я не придираюсь, просто так этот момент был бы более продуманным). Есть, конечно, и еще недочеты, которые бы я с удовольствием описал, но так получится скорее антиреклама игры. Приятными моментами является поведение Лары после выныривания из воды, а также захода в сугробы, ну и при подходе к костру. Также перемещение по снегу является очень приятным моментом в игре! Разработчики, вы молодцы! =)

    Если честно, я бы склонился к оценке 7/10, и я каждому рекомендую в нее поиграть!    … Expand

Lo miraba con optimismo, pues pensaba que para una siguiente entrega Crystal Dynamics puliría los dos grandes errores que tenía la primera entrega: lo básico de los tiroteos, y la mala narrativa. Y digo mala narrativa pues no creo que el primer Tomb Raider -después del reboot- tuviera una mala historia, si no que mas bien estaba mal contada tanto en el guión como en las acciones de Lara.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider pule y agrega muchas cosas a lo que hacía su antecesor, pero lamentablemente profundiza también sus errores. Comencemos por lo negativo: la historia continua con Lara intentando arrojar algo de luz sobre las investigaciones de su padre, de esta manera llega a las frías montañas de Rusia buscando la ciudad donde murió "El Profeta" una persona que vivío en la época Bizantina, que podía curar a los enfermos y concentraba mucha sabiduría. Como inicio de historia está bien, el problema es que posterior a esto se presentan personajes que no conocemos y se espera que nos preocupemos por ellos, así como que odiemos a los villanos y queramos salvar a los buenos. Sin embargo estas motivaciones nunca llegan a quedar claras ¿Porqué lo haríamos si nuestra meta es otra? ¿Realmente me deben importar estas traiciones? El problema es que la narrativa ni siquiera nos sitúa en la historia, las cosas ocurren y nosotros las vemos, el problema es que es muy poco interesante.

    Por otro lado lo único malo del juego es que los tiroteos son muchos pero poco desafiantes y para nada variados. Esto pasaría desapercibido al lado de la increíble jugabilidad, exploración, diseño de niveles y sobre todo la exquisita resolución de puzzles salvo por un problema: la mayor parte de las misiones de la historia son solo tiroteos. Lo mejor de este juego es lo "alternativo" en ves encontrar un equilibrio entre todas sus mecánicas. Al final los tiroteos se tornan muy repetitivos y es lo único que harás el ultimo cuarto del juego.

    Es una pena, porque los dos fallos de este juego son enormes, pero sus aciertos están al primer nivel dentro de la industria. Técnicamente es un portento, su rendimientos es increíble así como sus físicas. La ambientación y el diseño artístico tienen un gusto maravilloso. En cuanto a los puzzles y la exploración el juego es una obra maestra. Si desde el estudio arreglan los dos garrafales fallos de esta saga estaríamos ante juegos de una calidad incuestionable. Por ahora estamos ante juegos divertidos, pero no imprescindibles.    … Expand

Hay determinadas situaciones donde se busca el clímax y la implicación del jugador, pero el guión no acompaña para nada, perdiendo uno el interés en los personajes y las situaciones que los rodean. Luego, el ritmo general de aventura deja mucho que desear (el haber apostado por un diseño más abierto tiene mucho que ver), las secuencias de acción no son nada contundentes y el gun-play no es nada satisfactorio, con un control con mucho margen de mejora. Sinceramente, apuntar es toda una odisea. Otro problema relacionado con ampliar el abanico de opciones, es que Lara es invencible pero los enemigos no tienen progresión ¿de qué sirve introducir elementos RPG si el juego no está diseñado para tal? Hace que la experiencia sea un paseo en bastantes momentos y tenga uno que imponerse dificultades, nada lógico.

    Gameplay wise, this game is definitely my preferred one. There's less combat, which I like. The combat in general is also better, with some new additions like a bigger variety of weapons as well as different ammo types for most of them. There's a lot more exploration and puzzle solving this time, both mandatory and optional. The game is also a lot more open ended this time, you can do side quests, explore bigger areas and there are incentives for revisiting places you already explored before with new abilities. Where it lacks I think is the story. It's not very good. It's not horrible or anything but I was more interested in the first game's story, as generic as it was. I don't think most people play these games for the story though. Personally, I'm much much more focused on gameplay and I think there's some significant improvement here over the original. Not to mention, the graphics are absolutely stunning. I'm very excited to play the last entry of the trilogy.

    It is an enjoyable game, but if only Crystal Dynamics could have resolved its conflicts by focusing its attention on what Tomb Raider does best and cutting out anything that got in the way of that, it could have been something far more special.

    A great experience that is let down by its voice acting and certain key junctures in the story when the developers just tell us so much that we can guess what's going to happen next. The good news is that these are few and far between and the spectacular final missions make up for everything.
