They/Them A-10 Warthog
Just finished Rise of Tomb Raider and I have to say its a pretty damn good game. Hell, its probably the best Tomb Raider since Anniversary. It would have been a great game if they had just added a third large open world area before the climax and could fix the shooting mechanics (bow and shotgun are the only weapons that feel good in the game).
Its sad just how poorly the game has sold though. I fear the franchise might be dead after this one. I do think if a third game is made CD needs to bring back some of the features of the old games. Things I would like to see are:
-Globe trotting - take me to more than one location. Use Dragon Age Inquisition as an example for using multiple open worlds. Lara can travel back and forth via her private plane.
- Croft Manor - give it to me! Make it her base of operations for the globe trotting. As she collects more gear for traversal allow her to open up more of the secrets of the manor
- Gymnastics - if lara is going to take on the big bads all by herself she needs to train. No more clumsy lara in the future please. Bring back uber gymnast lara with neat combat maneuvers. Put a training room in croft manor too.
- Dual pistols - for Odin's sake give lara her fucking second pistol. Sick of the Katnis pandering too.
- Fix the shooting Mechanics - they are WAY to floaty right now and most of the guns feel like shit.
- Fix Aiming Perspective - when you aim in these new games it puts lara on the far side of the screen which looks terrible and completely fucks up perspective. Look at gears of war or saints row 3 for proper 3rd person positioning when aiming.
- Full ability to swim underwater - The "on rails" under water swimming sucks.
Regardless I just hope a new game gets made.
