A Survivor Was Born 11 Years Ago!

On this day, 11 years ago, we shipwrecked on a mysterious island off the coast of Japan, located somewhere in the Dragon's Triangle.

From escaping captivity to climbing a radio tower to signal for help, Lara faced a perilous and challenging ordeal to reunite with her crewmates and leave Yamatai for good.

Há 11 anos atrás nascia uma sobrevivente!

Neste dia, há 11 anos atrás, naufragámos numa misteriosa ilha perto da costa do Japão, localizada algures no Triângulo do Dragão.

Desde escapar ao cativeiro a escalar uma torre de rádio para emitir um pedido de socorro, Lara enfrentou uma perigosa e desafiante jornada para se reunir com os seus colegas de tripulação e fugir de Yamatai.

WOO! Holy FUCK!!! I just beat Tomb Raider '13 and holy shit I've never felt this fucking excited about anything in YEARS!!! Part of it is probably my SSRIs finally starting to work, but fuck me, that game's good. Crystal Dynamics oughta make more of those "Tomb Raider" things.

Genuinely and surprisingly GOOD AND FUN game. Though some gameplay and plot decisions hold it back from being a GREAT GAME.

With that said, will post shortly my newest project that begins an AU/Fix It of Tomb Raider 2013.

TOMB RAIDER: REVIEW

It’s been almost 17 years since Lara Croft raided her first tomb. Since then players have fought dinosaurs in the Andes and dragons beneath the Great Wall, found their way into Area 51 and out of Egyptian pyramids, plundered the ocean depths for the Holy Lance, fought nephilim monstrosities beneath Prague, discovered Excalibur and and slayed gods with the mighty hammer of Thor. What’s a series to do? Start over. Only this time from the very beginning.

Yammering About Tomb Raider 2013

You ever just keep bouncing off a game for some weird reason despite knowing you'll like it? That's what kept happening to me with this. I knew I would likely have fun with it, but the first 2 times I tried getting into it, I ended up putting the game down and doing something else. Admittedly one or both of those times might have been due to being nose deep in Destiny 2 at the time.

Either way, I have now finally worked my way through this game that a lot of people like. And I like it too! Despite not having actually played Uncharted, the influence is plain to see. It really is just those games, but with an interconnected map. Also the treasures feel more rewarding to get, as in Uncharted they kinda just unlock bonuses, whereas in Tomb Raider they give actual progression.

I definitely enjoyed the gameplay loop of killing, looting, and raiding to upgrade weapons. Honestly a lot of the later upgrades were completely useless to me, but I still wanted to get them to scratch that completionist itch, and the game makes it pretty easy to do so if you loot everything. Unfortunately there were points where I kinda went "There's no new upgrades right now, why bother looting", which made the later upgrades harder to get. I don't think I even fully upgraded everything, in the end.

As for the story? It's fine. Didn't leave too much of an impact on me, honestly, save for my empathic nature being triggered by the game's obsession with very visceral deaths. Really leaned into the Indiana Jones of it all with the body count on both ends of the conflict.

I will say, the progression of Lara's character was neat to see. Obviously no one starts out a badass, you gotta work your way there, or... Ya know, somehow survive through a situation where the odds are extremely stacked against you. She starts getting slightly more cocky near the end, but not OG Lara levels of cocky. At least, I assume- Never played those.

Still, the game ends with the caption "A Survivor Is Born", which... Yeah, she's not there yet. Still needs to process the shit she just went through, but she's definitely hardened enough to want to continue on this path. Hence why it didn't say "A Tomb Raider Is Born". Sequel's called "Rise of the Tomb Raider", though. Pretty sure there's a good reason for that. I'll get around to playing it eventually, hopefully without bouncing off it a bunch first, this time.

A Survivor Was Born 10 Years Ago!

From being stranded on a mysterious island off the coast of Japan to unraveling all of its secrets and dark past, Lara sure wasn’t prepared for this unforgettable adventure.

Happy anniversary to Tomb Raider (2013) and congratulations for this big milestone to the development teams at Crystal Dynamics and Eidos Montréal, the entire cast of actors, Square Enix, and other people involved in making the game.

Há 10 anos atrás nascia uma sobrevivente!

Desde naufragar numa ilha misteriosa na costa do Japão a descobrir todos os seus segredos e passado sombrio, certamente que a Lara não estava preparada para esta inesquecível aventura.

Feliz aniversário a Tomb Raider (2013) e os nossos parabéns às equipas de desenvolvimento da Crystal Dynamics e da Eidos Montréal, ao elenco de atores, à Square Enix, e aos restantes envolvidos na realização deste jogo.

Tomb Raider 25th Anniversary - A Survivor is Born

Lara went through the ringer in Tomb Raider 2013! Luckily for her, she's a scrappy young woman who has the smarts and strength to survive! 

Tomb Raider 2013 took Lara Croft and the franchise in a new direction, focusing on Lara's survival against the wild and harsh elements. I personally enjoy the more gritty take on the series, as well as Lara's ability to analyse artefacts to find new information!
