God has abandoned us.

A great port of an extremely charming and well-designed metroidvania that embraces exploration. The charm is hammered home by the beautiful art design, music and settings, as well as little touches, like how you can refuse to give an innocent woman her lost dog, and she'll go into a monologue about how this will eventually cause the apocalypse. This game is just a great, classic metroidvania game, and the Shantae series definitely doesn't get the attention it deserves.

"OooOoOooH, the FEeEeLs",

After actually playing the game...I'm taken aback by the praise. It's a free game, and I can appreciate what the developer has done, but this game gets unfair attention for its 'nostalgic' nods to instant messengers, early 2000s culture, and Windows XP, which all just come across as disingenuous and poorly-remembered. There are plenty of other little nitpicsk with that, that undermine the game, too. Instead of checking whether their early 2000s themed profile pictures fit with someone of that age, the developer didn't, and included things like the movie Cars, as profile pictures.
Also, nothing of note happens in the game, and the game's entire 'sad twist' is all built upon the fact that you actually care about a poorly characterised character which I just didn't really care about. I mean, I tried to prevent them from commiting suicide, but why would I care about being friendzoned by a virtual character I know nothing about, and with all of this irritating millenialism, the memetic humour and references, and the fact that this game's "FEEELS" are all built upon an assumption, some people call this a work of art!?

Some of the most consistently well-designed levels in the series, taking a break from the ridiculously contrived settings in Tomb Raider III and II, and a more well-connected world map which changes the structure of the game make Tomb Raider IV: The Last Revelation a real treat to play. Pretty much all of the levels are connected, now, and with the addition of the need to backtrack, this game is structured quite differently, almost a bit like a metroidvania, albeit without the vertical elements. Add to that several good additions like shattering pots with your gun, or aiming down a gun's sights, and this game's probably, nostalgia aside, the best entry in the first 6 Tomb Raider games.

Shares a lot of concepts with Destiny (althought it DID come before Destiny!), and it's a much less polished game.
What it lacks in polish, though, it makes up for in sheer ambition and content.
This game has a lot more to offer than Destiny.

i could not beat the game in 60 minutes.
i failed.
deus ex is over.

no borders and the town isn't even on land ZERO out of 10
