What's with all the negativity? I thought the trailer was pretty decent and ominous. Just the way i like it.
It's a lame CGI teaser. They're a dime a dozen and they are all pretty ****. The TR reboot was molded after the Uncharted games, which is pretty ironic in it's own right, and as such I think it lost a good chunk of it's identity and became little more than just another by-the-numbers AAA experience.
The new Lara Croft design is actually pretty good, but the tombs were dumbed-down so much that it had me questioning why they even existed in the game at all. The gameplay itself (read: shooting people) did literally nothing to differentiate itself from it's peers and was for all intents and purposes a copy paste of every third-person-shooter in existence. The multiplayer was a tacked on and very mediocre experience that did nothing to support the single player component in any way.
Finally, the single player itself was far too linear and showed us all it had to offer the first time around; there was literally nothing to return to beyond the ridiculous collectathon nonsense these developers are so fond of these days. As a result, you're more likely to put the game down and never pick it up again once you finish it. As a $60 retail game, and much like Sony's The Order 1886, it's seriously lacking, but does make for a good rental. I expect little to change with it's sequel since we are after all talking about a franchise that is hell bent on being one of the staples in the AAA space.
