Important Update:
The world is saved once again thanks to fearless Lara Croft!
Which essentially means that I finally beat the game . . . and it makes me sad. I almost wish I never did. Does anyone else feel the same way when they play video games and just get upset for a short while over completing it? I hope so.
But anyways. It was a fun adventure and a very well thought game in my opinion. I cannot stress this enough, but it did have this good ole TR feel to it and I couldn't thank the developers enough for it. At one point while playing the previous two games from the reboot, I was about to give up on the series, let's be honest, they suck.
Now the photomode. For some reason I didn't expect it to be in the game to begin with, sure do wish I paid more attention to options to capture more cool stuff in the beginning of the game, but it's okay. I might replay it again on ultra hard mode. You see, I am only three trophies away from platinum, so staring a new game + and blasting through the story super quick doesn't scare me one bit and doesn't seem like a time waste either.
But yeah, photo mode is alright. It is certainly a cool feature to have in a game, unless you just wanna capture a screenshot with the "share" button on your PS4 controller. It certainly provides you with more settings to make sure your picture is as perfect as it possibly could be. But I wish it was as versatile as it is in Horizon Zero Dawn. For instance, it would be cool to be able to change Lara's pose and not just her facial expression, you can't even really see her face in most of my pictures anyway, and the ones you can, well, those are cut scene captures that you cannot use photo mode to edit. Oh yeah, all of these pictures are unedited captures from my TV screen (except for the title image).
The tombs were amazing in this game, out of words spectacular haha and the puzzles made me run back and forth a few times which I always appreciate.
Oh yeah!!! Almost forgot. I got a season pass so expect me to do more streams in the next few months. Apparently, a new challenge tomb is going to be released starting October. There will be seven tombs to raid, side missions and complimentary outfits and weapons :). Fuck yeah to that!
The journey continues!
