Tomb Raider 2

Who the FUCK thought this was a good idea? Of all the god damned keys, they picked 'S'. Why didn't they pick 'Print Screen'? Thankfully only the second game has this nonsense.

I just checked the game's directory and sure enough there's over 100 screenshots. That's pretty funny how I never noticed that. Scrolling through them really fast looks like a gameplay video.

Turn it into a GIF and post it here, faggot

play with a gamepad instead.

It's about time you learned how to play games with RAGE.

It's all just swimming a distance of a few feet, nothing interesting.

That's what I'm going to do since when I hold S while looking around the game stutters from taking nonstop screenshots. Now I have to learn a whole new control scheme after playing TR1, which was great fun by the way.

you'll git gud eventually

...

So I can save anywhere without crystals. :^)

Why not just use a gamepad and joy2key or something similar?
Hell why not just use autohotkey to swap S with another key?

What is the best way to go through the pre-legend games? PSX, PC, Saturn, Dreamcast should I install mods for the PC versions? I've only played through Angel of Darkness and loved it apparently it is by far the worst one though.

That's the best part.

Generally PC versions are definitive, and that applies to almost all old vidya not just TR, but these get super clunky with modern windows. I tried running the original TR trilogy on PC (from GOG) on Windows 7 a couple years back; TR1 didn't boot, TR2 booted but glitched, can't remember what happened with TR3 but I ended up uninstalling the whole thing. I can only imagine how these games are gonna act on Windows 8/8.1/10…
If you can boot an old version of Windows (98/XP) somehow then play the PC versions, otherwise emulate. I don't know the differences between the console versions (in terms of content) so you'll have to google these yourself, for each game separately.

Uhh, use RDFG? It's not like the fact that the letters are "WASD" makes them special.

Just use the arrow keys goddammit.

I got 1 thru 3 and their gold editions all working on Windows 7 after a bunch of trial and error. In TR2 and 3 using Peixoto for widescreen and FMVs not stretched to the monitor, but I get minor screen tearing at the top of my monitor. If you're fine with 4:3 then you can avoid that entirely.
By TR3Gold I was getting a bit tired, so that part may not actually work. I didn't try to recreate it since right now it works for me. By the way, never alt+tab. If you alt+tab in TR1 the controls break, but you can use the Windows key to get to the desktop since it's in a window. In TR2 don't even try, the game won't restore from being minimized. TR3 you can alt+tab.

RDFG is too far away from shift and ctrl. I tried it, but I can't get used to it.

user, you are a hero and a true human bean.

Tomb Raider games are clunky as fuck. I never get the appeal of these shits. They started the cancerous tank control trend among action adventure games.

That's very helpful, thanks. I'll give these a try… Although I see your pic referencing a "CD install", can't I just use the widely available GOG install of all 3 TRs?


Please be bait.

Technically AitD did it first and other games such as Fade to Black started using it in a full 3D environment, but Tomb raider was the one that popularized it.

Fuck's sakes, really?
Fucking retarded. Can you still bypass filters around here?

GOG 2 and 3 didn't work for me. The sound never functioned properly or it didn't boot.

Oh. You'll probably want this:

Tomb Raider Collection 1 - 5 (PC)
C3FAFEACC003F61FC00F863151847B4D5487E8D6

That's useful

I played through my old PC CD copy about a year ago and I don't remember this ever being a problem.

TR1 > TR2, 2 ruined the lonely atmosphere.

It still hurts.

too hot, it intimidates girls and boys
i wish i was joking

The only time we got Old Lara back during the Legends Trilogy was when NuLara got cloned by Natla.

Fucking numales and nufemales can't handle something like this.

Why?

Sequels often go a bit off the rails with the greater budget. At least 2 has this track.

And to anyone thinking of posting that plank of wood Nu-Lara from the shitty new movie, please spoiler in advice.

Well, you can hope that the remake will not fuck this up. hopefully

You gay user?

Why does she have asian eyes?

Let's be real the only reason we played this shit was because of them tiddies. For a successful modern TR it should be made with ecchi factor 100% in mind. Boobs should bounce, clothes should become see-through when wet and reveal more when damaged. There should be an equipment screen that lets you decide how slutty you make Lara dress. Enemies should always have salacious attacks- snakes wrap around her, wolves tear off her clothes, etc. Lara gasps and groans when climbing and sways her ass in the camera. Game would sell like hotcakes.

please, she's a C cup
having features that actually identify her as a woman might have helped sell the first game, but if that were all it wouldn't have sold well enough that there are 4 sequels on the PS1 alone

I played TR for the adventure
t. gay
A slutty game would be nice granted there's an option to turn down the lewd.

user Classic Lara was a true survivalist, thrill seeker and self made millionaire, because she got disowned by her rich snobby parents.
In Legends they started to shove the stories of the god awful movies into the game, made Lara Croft live of the money she inherited from her dead parents and made her constantly cry for her missing mother like an upset child.
Lara Croft being a sociopathic mass murder that is dropping people like Flies for petty reasons started in Legends. Before then the only humans she killed where criminals, corrupt soldiers and corporate mercenaries.


Bullshit, they may have helped but the true reason was that Tomb Raider was simply a much better game at its time than others, especially on the console.
Go play Resident Evil 1 on the Playstation 1 and then Tomb Raider 1, both had been released in the same year, both are Horror Games, both are full with Puzzles and both Games feature Tank Controls.
Yet compared to Tomb Raider, Resident Evil 1 looks like ass, controls like ass and the Puzzles are on a level of late point and click Adventure Games.
Resident Evil is the descendant of Alone in the Dark, which before the term "Survival Horror" was invented by the marketing team to sell Resident Evil was treated as an Action Adventure Game like Tomb Raider.
The only 3D game that had better controls in 1995 than Tomb Raider were either Mario 64 on the newly release N64(when Nintendo still sold game for the SNES) or FPS games like Quake on the PC.
And then the sequels were blowing the people away, each game not only had better graphics and sound but new and better ways of controlling Lara Croft and interacting with the environment.
The Tomb Raider franchise until 2000 was simply amazing and the apex of gaming for many people.

Wasn't the creator a cuckold anyways?

The creator of what?

Agreed but TR isn't a horror game, it's action/adventure, while RE1 is adventure/horror.

Right in the first chapter Lara is mauled by wolf, attacked by Dinosaurs and Mummies and the rest of the Game has you battling Atlantean Mutants that looks like people with their skin torn off.
Tomb Raider is a true horror game alone by the choice of its enemies. Not only that most combat encounters start with a classical jump scare, complete with music note like some kind of old horror movie.
Not only that despite the number of guns in the game Lara is squishy enough that every enemy encounter needs your full attention and just like in Resident Evil you start to conserve your more powerful ammo out of fear that one of the bigger guys can come around the corner at any moment.
Tomb Raider is 50% puzzles, 40% platforming and 10% jump scares, the games don't become Action until Legends where you are shooting guys while driving a bike following a train or the moment where Lara gets her hands on Excalibur and becomes Death Incarnate, wasting everything in her way.

The worse part is we could have had a massive resurgence of lara croft porn, now it's all of nulara.

I must of gotten mixed up with someone else, I thought it was Toby but he fucked off after Eidos took over Core Design completely.

That's why i avoided the NuLara porn.
They are god awful.

Old Lara or new Lara for some fucking reason it is always Wolfs and Horses.

Was she a 56%-er?

...

Talking about shitty controls. When i was kid played TR1 and an expansion of TR3 (Little me barely knew any english so no way i could understand the keybinds and controls). Managed to complete both games without knowing that there was a keybind for sprint. Also played AoD, Anniversary and Legends, you could sprint in those too?

If it ever gets completed, but at least the demo is wonderful.

Good.

That's certainly why I originally bought them. I finally played them to the end just to say that I did. To be honest I think Tomb Raider is mostly bad games with no sense of pacing or reasonable punishment for failure. The block pushing mechanics are one of, if not the single worst, block pushing mechanic I've come across in any game.

They also liked making things absurdly slow for the sake of muh realism. Lara in II climbs walls slower than a fucking 5 year old could, and like you said, pushing blocks is like waiting for erosion to take place.

most people at the time of its release used the arrow keys.
that's what the arrow keys were for, that's why they are separate on the keyboard, so you can use them without touching anything else.
The wasd fad came about later.

Please tell me that this 3D model is somewhere to be found

tomb raider 1 was one of the first 3d block pushing games.
it was special at the time that you could make some of the scenery move.
you are looking at things from the wrong end.
it's like loading quake 1 and screaming about how there is no bump mapping and no rest behind cover for health, and no cover shooting mechanism.
if you are playing games made before you were born, perhaps read about them before you play them.

jap company bought her and since they make all their jap characters have giant anime eyes, they made an English character have jap's eye
