@pixelomen: Hear hear. Out of all the TR reboot games this one actually feels like an actual Tomb Raider game to me.
I cannot state enough how much of a difference the hard mode for exploration and puzzles makes. In the video I see Brad just go through all the boring motions of climbing all the yellow/white ledges. Sure, on hard difficulty I still have to climb the same ledges to get to the same place but at least it's not being spoon fed to me. I actually have to pay attention to where I jump now.
Also just being able to do puzzles without Lara screaming in my ear "Hmm, looks like I CAN PRESS THIS BUTTON" is amazing.
I also made the choice to not use eagle vision/detective mode (whatever it's called) outside of combat because that also makes the game so lazy. If I want to get the 100% trophy and can't find collectibles by myself it's nice to have the option, but I highly recommend not using it. Depending on what you're looking to get out of the game of course.
Man, it's a shame this game has so much jank. For me that makes the price range too high. Too bad, because this would be perfect for my online gaming group.
Also looking good Ben! That's a nice shirt. For Midweek Multiplayer Madness (That's Definitely Never Been Done Before TM) I recommend Overcooked. Though you guys might have played that before, I don't remember exactly.
