Get an Xbone
I'm surprised there's no 4K or 60fps in the title.
Education is free!Maybe I'm missing something but I don't get the title.

The tech on display here most definitely outclasses the Order. HBAO+, tesselation, soft shadows. It's a showpiece. Hair, environments, and facial animation especially. Based MOVA.I'm excited as hell too, and cannot wait for midnight, but from what I'm seeing, it's not better than The Order 1886. That's still the best looking game this generation.
The fucking Muppets: Most Wanted reference in the OT is great.
I wish I had held out to play this game, it's probably way better on PC
Will this unlock at midnight on Steam or when the store updates tomorrow? Usually at 1pm EST iirc.
Great minimalist OT, my tablet thanks you.
Can we take a moment to reflect on how far graphics have come?

It's a little jab at the exclusivity.
I feel like we have reached a point where almost no new game will date, with PC, we're essentially at photo realism - although people probably say this every generation and are proven wrong time and time again

I officially double dipped on this game, once I heard the PC version was coming I couldn't resist..
Should have waited for waited for the PC version
sell your xbone version
When games bump up to 4k the photorealism argument will be center stage again. 1080p is fine for me, though. Until I get an 100' TV or a 4K projector.
I've revisited the Tomb Raider reboot these past weeks and I'm struck by how similiar these two games are and yet how much better and more fun Rise of the Tomb Raider is. The gameplay is extremely similiar, but everything is much smoother in Rise. Crystal Dynamics have done a great job in keeping the good bits and making them better. Especially the environments are much more interesting this time. The tombs in Tomb Raider were very disappointing, and to be honest I never felt I was playing a TR game. In Rise they feel more like they did back in the days.
So yeah, play the game!
Somehow I missed the release of this game. Are there any pre-order bonuses?
... the Remnant Resistance Pack, and the Sparrowhawk pack! The Remnant Resistance Pack includes the "Remnant" outfit which gives Lara a chance to bandage without using any resources, the "Moon Shadow" Heavy Pistol Skin, and the rare "Bullet Resistance" foil card, which gives Lara extra damage resistance to gunfire while the Sparrowhawk Pack includes the “Sparrowhawk” outfit that boosts Lara’s hunting ability, the “White Widow" Recurve bow skin, and the rare “Master Hunter” foil card which deals double damage to animals and gives Lara double the resources from them.
Pre-ordering on Steam gets you Tomb Raider 2013 also (giftable if you already own it).
So firm and youthful.
Please stop, the wait is unbearable.I agree. The game takes away control far less often and there are far fewer slow mo and QTE moments. The action setpieces require you to use your platforming skills rather than just holding up on the analog stick. The combat also felt better paced throughout even if there may be more of it overall.
The main story features 3 larger tomb/ruin environments and there are more puzzles spread throughout the campaign. There is one about 2/3 of the way through being really well designed and fun to explore.
The optional tombs are much better and actually look and feel like classic Tomb Raider environments. None of the Puzzles are too difficult but the were all fun to solve. There are 3 standout ones in my opinion with the rest being a bit too small/short/easy but they are almost all an improvement on the reboot both in puzzle design and environments. Still left with a that's it feeling a bit too often though. I would have taken 2-3 more larger ones in place of several of the smaller easier ones though.
To me, photorealism is when someone shows me an image and I have to look at it a few times to see if it's real or not. We are still a long way from that. And, resolution isn't it either. You can even take a SD TV broadcast, know it's real, and then take the best AAA game image, you can tell it's fake.

*shrug* still don't get it. An Adele song?
Who the hell didn't play the first game if you go the extra mile of preordering the sequel?
Square Enix makes no sense.
what's the cheapest this is going on pc? i held off when it was £22.99 on cdkeys since it was being bundled, but it seems to have actually increased in price in the last week or so.

Will using NZ VPN help unlock game earlier or is it set time for all regions?
