Give it back to the team that made the first two rebooted games. Team B didn't do the greatest job with the third.
I'm of the controversial opinion (on this forum anyway) that the first reboot and Rise were both excellent games. I really loved the open world area in Rise and couldn't put it down.
Make it first person next time around and focus on the puzzles and platforming as the primary form of danger again, instead of tons and tons of enemies to shoot.
You can do serious Tomb Raider and be good. I'd say the original games were closer to horror than fun adventure most of the time, but Lara was a sassy and witty character in the cutscenes instead of the personality vacuum Laura Kraft is.This I agree, as I said as much as I like NuLara design the character herself it's not as charismatic and the new trilogy takes itself too seriously. The side cast and the villains are just boring.
Not to say it should be Legends tier of camp, but they need to find a better middleground.
reboot it again. this trilogy had poorer planning than the star wars sequel trilogy.
I read the title and this came to my mind too.I know this would never happen but I'm interested on what a Naughty Dog Tomb Raider game would be like
Rey gets the lightsaber in the final scene of Episode VII. Never uses it again for rest of trilogy.Not wrong 🤣
The TR reboot trilogy story is like if they spent three movies hyping up Rey finally leaving Jakku and becoming a jedi and then ending as soon as she did that, and a random side character is literally the only one they bring back for the sequels.
I feel like the series will need another major rethink whatever happens at this point, and I feel a new developer would be the best catalyst for doing that now, but I guess if Crystal actually got time to work on follow-ups rather than pumping them out as soon as possible they could prove me wrong.
not to be rude, but why did you play shadow before rise? 😂Unpopular opinion but I want Crystal Dynamics to make the next one. Just jumped into Rise of the Tomb Raider on Stadia and it's much better than both Shadow and TR2013, which I've just played through. It's not perfect but CD had a great thing going there, I liked the smaller hub levels with metroidvania unlockable tombs, and the wild life. Unfortunately the timed exclusivity deal made the negativity bury it and CD got kicked out, or so I assume. But it looks absolutely stunning and plays great, even better at 60fps. I want more focus on exploration and puzzles and lots of tombs. Less shooting. More verticality. And less running or sliding into insta death.
Oh sorry if that came out strange, I played Rise at the launch, but that was 4 years ago. Then played Shadow at it's launch and replayed TR2013 when Stadia launched and now Rise again when it came up for free on Stadia.
I've thought for a while now that Tomb Raider becoming Mirror's Edge but non-urban would be great.
Glad to see there are others!
Nah, I need 20 more ;) Seriously, it's one of the most iconic IPs in gaming with a great strong female protagonist, there is no need to end it.There are over 20 tomb raider games. How many more do you need?
Let it end, let them make something new.

Well that was rather harsh from the fan (based on the avatar) of a franchise whose 'new' -- i.e not a re-release or remake -- games since then have been Other M and Federation Force.

She was like a person who went into the family business of tomb raiding because it's what her dad did and "well gee whiz I dont have anything else on my resume so I guess I ought to as well. Might as well see what got him murdered"
I never got the feeling that new Lara was doing anything because she wanted to. She only did it because the game needed her to.

I agree.Reboot her again into the fun, adventure seeking Lara but keep the current 3D model. Also lose the crazy collectibles and crafting.
Ah, thank you for the truly intelligent insight of "game bad"ueah but st least there's have been good Metroid
both mirrors edge were bad
DIdn't all three perform under SE's sales expectations?And to ppl saying: "It's dead", " Bye TR" and similar shitposting: No, it's not. It's one of the most successful franchises for SE and all 3 games from the trilogy were big success for SE.
