Cant remember when i got the chance but i don't think its worth it, i like the default suit better.

Yeah, its the base camp right before you go in the cave. The one where they teach you to upgrade your equipment.

The QTE's, an abundance of them, means this game is a no go for me. Devs never learn. I wonder how many neat cutscenes I've missed while to focusing on lame quick button prompts over the years. Or getting a boss defeated by great skill and strategy, only to die at the end because I had no idea Y, X, Y would flash up really quickly.

Maybe I will get this around $20-$30. It does look like a very good game.

I'm almost over the QTE's. It is unbelievable how many QTE's there are. Too bad, because gameplay is great... interrupted by an endless parade of QTE's....

they aren't even that quick, time slows down and the circle closes before showing you what you have to press, if it was God of War or RE4 quicktimes then yeah but I felt these flowed smoothly.

After 1-2 hours of gameplay, QTEs begin to vanish, unless you want to go in for close combat. Which  can be easy to avoid with guns, special thanks to Trench Gun! Still getting random "hugging moments" that require QTEs but rare.

I was terrified by the amount of QTE at start, it felt like Hugo/Dragon's Lair.


Also, try to avoid subtitles... How did they think painting them in different neony colours and giving a black background, is a good idea?!? My tiny mind cannot fathom :/

Wow, I played TR for about 7 hours last night, (then dreamed about it), and am all excited to get back to it. Yeah, the QTEs are annoying, but once you get past the tutorial-esque stuff, they're not all that common. Aside from that, I'm finding TR absolutely brilliant.

I'm having a ball with the actual tomb raiding. So far, I've only got two under my belt, but I'm looking forward to more. And I'm finding myself completely obsessed with collecting relics, documents, etc. And somehow I'm missing one of the totems in the very first area. I went back more than once, but still can't find one. Argh!

 Will definitely buy this game, but because I have several other games to finish I'll try to wait.

I did watch Conan O'Brien's "clueless gamer" review of Tomb Raider and thought it was hilarious:

Wow that review is hilarious, but I don't think I could ever buy this game now that I saw her head get repeatedly skewered by Conan. Because I'm pretty sure thats how my game would run.

I'm going to go get some therapy now.

Beware if you're purchasing DLCs for this game. The descriptions are SUPER vague, so I ended up spending 4 bucks thinking I was getting 6 new weapons for the singleplayer, when it turns out they are multiplayer only.

Its only 4 bucks, but what the hell.

[happy_daiz]

^ Good to know, thanks.

I went to redeem my 'Tomb Raider Scavenger Hunt DLC items', on the TR website, with my GameStop receipt code, and got a message that the promotion was over. What the...?

I haven't tried the preorder bonus code yet. Hope that works.

Did you guys on Xbox do a hard drive install, or just play from disc? I know I should do a hd install, but I'm lazy. I didn't have any issues with it from disc, but thought I'd ask before I get too far into things, considering I only have one save file.

Did you finish all the challenges? The expiration for the promo was March 5th, but I believe you can claim it anytime afterwards if you finished the challenges.

[happy_daiz]

Um, I guess not? I assume this is something outside of the game challenges? I didn't even know about this until I saw it on the receipt last night.

You're welcome. Anyway,

Yeah I always do HDD installs. The disc doesn't spin, the console has to work less, there's less noise, load times are faster, etc etc

There is analog stick waggling, yeah.

I don't think its RE bad though- these you can expect sometimes, though others do come out of left field.

Still, there are too many. I wish it was like The Witcher 2 and I could toggle them off.

[happy_daiz]

^ True, but they are consistent. They don't just throw weird button combinations at you; they seem to use the same buttons for the same actions. It doesn't take long for it to become second nature.

Oh, the silly stick wiggling. I suppose you can reason that it makes sense, but it is a bit annoying.

[LPPrince]

The only stick I want to waggle is

let me stop before I go there

[Captain Crash]

Yeah there are more QTE then I would normally like. But they are all done well and are each unique so its no real biggy to me

[LPPrince]

So far I've decided to go back to the starting area and hunt. I haven't gone up to the radio tower yet.

Thanks to hunting I've been able to upgrade all my stuff as much as I can(for now), and I've picked up an extra skill I probably would've got later on.

I'm thinking I'll keep hunting and stuff in the areas to gain experience a little earlier than expected and to save up some salvage points so I can upgrade my stuff later on.

[happy_daiz]

I've been fast traveling all over the place. I am just past the radio tower, story-wise, and am back in the mountain village.

I got that skill where you can use survival mode to see items through walls, so I'm back-tracking to get items I missed. Good stuff.

ohhh that sounds handy. Im just getting to the Radio Tower, I can see it in the distance. I upgraded my bow fully and haven't touched my pistol yet. I got about 900 scrap which im saving at the moment

[LPPrince]

I upgraded my pistol fully so far(as much as you can prior to the tower) and it comes in handy when I'm spotted.

[happy_daiz]

I dunno, just wait until you get rope arrows. They're handy for getting to hard-to-reach places, and for pulling enemies down from their perch.

I've added a couple of upgrades to my pistol and assault rifle, but mostly to my bow.

[LPPrince]

I don't even have an assault rifle yet, haha. I haven't progressed since the last time I posted since I've been on the web watching Roosterteeth Podcasts.

I thought when I got my weapons in the single player that I could switch them out for the ones I downloaded, but OF COURSE THAT ISN'T GONNA HAPPEN

[Captain Crash]

hehe, this is great.  :happy:  Im constantly spurring Lara on!  I don't think I ever shouted so much encouragement to a game before!
