I’ve been on a TR kick since the 6 remasters came out so I decided to continue on and play this one again for the first time since it’s initial release. Absolutely fantastic game and one of the best in the series. WHY don’t they make games like this anymore???? If you are a TR fan you need to play this game if you haven’t already. Played perfect on the Steamdeck but there are some very minor graphical glitches during cut scenes and in a couple of levels, nothing game breaking.

over all good game. some physics are a little wonky and camera isn't the best, not the worst but i do fight with it from time to time. i wish i could remember if these issues were there on the ps2 version.

really good game!! puzzle not too hard, the story is nice, and basically i realized that amanda is just sam in another universe whereas amanda turn out to be evil after the possesion (and lara cant save her when shes drowned) and sam being damsel in distress lara could save and succeed and didnt turn out evil.

and i know abt the og storyline where in tr13 sam is supposed to be dead and eventually himiko possesed her and maybe will turn out to be amanda 2.0 lol, i mean thats just uhhh did they think to just be making the same old storylines with a little bit of tweak and different character? well im glad the playtesters outcry abt that tho :)

and ive been thinking thats the reason why sam is absent from the newest 2 game (rise and shadow), maybe they thought abt making her a villain in those, and bcs of the outcry they just scrapped the idea altogether and just like pretend that she didnt even survive the first game..... ok i'll stop


oh wait and i just wanna say one more thing that the game itself crash and basically unplayable in certain level if u turn on the next gen graphics content or some sort, so if theres crash, force close it then play the game without that thing on, it'll become okay again


also... steam overlay doesnt works so cant take screenshots.. lara would say, "bollocks!"
