    As someone who often plays games on the hardest (or harder) difficulty settings, I'd like more videos like this: videos that critique those settings and let people know if they're worth the time, or if they're poorly implemented and unfair.

    Honestly, my major issue with the game is how you could lose an entire hour if you make one wrong move on deadly obsession. I had to play over an entire hour of the same chapter so many times and it made the game experience monotonous. I think it was a very stupid idea to have very limited saving points between different scenes/chapters.

      Perhaps those are the gaming novices. Those who do not spend time learning on their own or rather, simply, never were interested in "the world of heroes" as are we. Never got their importance. Talking about these characters can be fun. And dare I say it - informative.
      The gaming platforms now have found a way to tell stories of our favorite heroes. Wolverine, Spider-Man, Call of Duty - to name a few. Lol. We all know it's Lara

    Gamespot you should re review this game , it deserves a 8+ score. They have put so much love into making this game and it looks very "TOMB RAIDER" and clearly better than the previous two. You gave Rise 9 and this 6? Come on! This game is going to be amazing. I don't understand one thing why some uncharted fan are hating on tomb raider. Its not a question of which one is better, we may have individual preferences. I think Uncharted fan should celebrate Tomb raider because this is something they will like if they like Uncharted as they have more or less similar gameplay. Again, I am a huge Tomb raider fan but I think Uncharted is freaking amazing as well... Why the stupid fan fight... Enjoy both games.

    @straxwb 6 лет назад +3

    One With The Jungle is definetly the best difficulty setting for this game. Rite of Passage makes it way too easy, while Deadly Obsession gets frustrating very quickly unless you really like hardcore gaming experiences, so I'd say this one balances them both. You can actually have a challenge, with stronger enemies and no white paint indicators, but at the same time have checkpoints to prevent you from losing hours of progress. I went through DO for the platinum, and yest it was frustrating at times.

    Good to hear that you can disable puzzle hints.

And at those times where I *was* momentarily stuck for what specifically to interact with next, I wanted to figure it out myself.

    You didn't cover quicktime events, like the disaster runs. That mudslide one killed me about 20 times, and I was playing on easy. Mostly because the white paint is only there for half of it, and my instincts didn't match with the games expectation.
    Curious to know if those were harder in the upper difficulty.

  • @adri_144

    I mostly enjoyed the Tomb Raider franchise because of the expanded exploring options and puzzles. The sound effects always made it to a relaxing game and I'd spend hours playing. Shadow Of The Tomb Raider provided all of the aspects of the game I was mostly interested in. I didn't mind the shooting and stealth in the previous games, but it just wasn't why I liked those games. Adjusting the difficulty saved me _so_ much time.

    When I get a new game, the first thing I do is maxing out it's difficulty. If you think about it it's a no-brainer: you get more hours of gameplay for your money and that little rewarding sensation you get when you progress

    Fun game. I first played it on medium and got 100% completion. Now onto Deadly Obsession with new game+ where you keep all skills , supplies, and weapons which makes this difficulty much easier!

  • @G00-t9x
    @G00-t9x 6 лет назад +2

    Deadly obsession were crazy easy haha, even compared to Uncharteds Crushing difficulty.
    The only two or three annoying areas are two or three climbing spots, as Laura loves to do the akward jumping as shoved in the video. But even Deadly obsession is kind and forgiving and actually saves during the quick 'running while jumping' parts in the game.
    The puzzles arent hard either, hints or no hints, I found Laura annoying on the lower difficulties as she would give hints EVERY time you use focus 😥 just, shhh Laura! Shh!
    The combat is easy no matter the difficulty, and even on Deadly obsession you will never really run low on ammo as the dodge-and-strike-back move is the best to use in the melee combat sections anyway as Laura insta-kills them after hitting triangle 🤷‍♀️ Shadow of the Tomb raider is a fun game and I loved the tombs and what not, very easy to platinum, not as easy as Marvels Spiderman, but close 👌

    • @JeanLucSeipke

    It is incredibly grating to hear Laura instead of Lara, in my head I can see a highschool friend called Lara biting through her pen because our Maths teacher kept botching her name.

      I know, right! I don't know why SO many people have a problem with Lara's name. It's downright strange. It happens so frequently it's as if some humans have a biological quirk that prevents them from saying it correctly. lol

    • @luc1ferous
      @luc1ferous 6 лет назад

      It almost exclusively seems to be Americans (our teacher was an import) so I'm wondering if it's an accent thing where ah sounds come out as or's if they don't try and catch themselves.

    • @DavidM_10
      @DavidM_10 6 лет назад

      Maybe. That's as good an explanation as any I've heard. There has to be some logic to it. I don't see people getting Nathan Drake's name wrong, or any other video game hero's, so often, and Lara's been around much longer than most of them. Her actual name should be burned into people's minds.

    • @JeanLucSeipke
      @JeanLucSeipke 6 лет назад

      I am fully aware I said it wrong in the video. I've always done it my whole life. My guess is because I had a friend named Laura lol.

    • @danroemer2552

      The thing is you act/comment as if GameSpot is a single person. The review and this video were written by two completely different people, each with their own opinions on the game itself. One just happened to be tasked with REVIEWING the game, while Jean-Luc decided to make a video about the difficulty.
      It's not that crazy of a concept to grasp or understand. People who work at GameSpot are tasked with creating written and video content on a day-to-day basis, so when multiple copies of a game are sent to GameSpot, expect multiple videos and topics to be discussed, regardless of the score given to the game.

    • @ComicsLamar

    On purpose: I actually started the game from the beginning with "deadly obsession" (I noticed you are talking about difficulty levels in the game).
