Graphics are excellent, storyline is amazing and is overall better than Rise of The Tomb Raider and Shadow Of The Tomb Raider.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider has a good storyline about ancient times also involved in the trinity forces that wants to stop Laura Croft the story also takes place of Laura Croft when she was a little girl as well her parents the game takes place in Mexico then in Peru where she discovers new cultures and enemies the game offers puzzles to achieve unlock new

The storyline is solid, environment is immersive, and puzzle tombs are fun

Perhaps it's because I love Mayan, Incan and Aztec mythology, culture and architecture, but regardless, the storyline so far has been amazing and it runs smooth for the most part

The weapons from guns to the bows seem well balanced but not overpowered

Great balance of climbing, obstacles, underwater exploration, combat, scary moments

This change makes for a better balance of the different gameplay elements

The game gives a great balance between combat (with an emphasis on stealth), exploration, and puzzle solving.

Really good game and the addition of NG+ is a game changer adding the ability to keep all skills and weapon upgrades in your new game, definitely worth a play through.

What a great addition to the reboot trilogy

Tomb raider fan from day one and this game was just another great addition to the series.

The input latency being cut in half due to double the frames makes for much smoother gameplay, making the overall game more enjoyable

I normally don't care about graphics if the gameplay is good but for some reason, I just find it distracting in this one, maybe because I had such high expectations going into it or the fact at parts, you see how good the graphics can be but which are not consistent throughout

stated.the gameplay was smooth for me,and the graphics awesome!ignore the 1 star ratings,there’s always a few bad apples in a bushel.this one seemed to have more tombs to plunder and quite a bit of

Good gameplay, decent graphics, pretty much more of the same, but with enhanced stealth

Follows the same formula the last two games had, but with a new story and more refined gameplay.--Story

This game has some great moments that make it worth buying and playing, the tsunami part for one (the graphics there hold up), but then it gets slowed down by jumps to her past with inane puzzles (like the white night) that are frustrating to say the least

Great balance of climbing, obstacles, underwater exploration, combat, scary moments

So just don't make this one a must have right this moment, because it is definitely one you can wait on.

Lara/Jonah Banter: Does have some good moments, but too few

Great balance of climbing, obstacles, underwater exploration, combat, scary moments

The story is ok but seems rushed the combat doesn’t seem as smooth and fluid as it was in the others

For gameplay, I really like the stealth combat in the game for the most part.

I am glad it focuses on tomb raiding but the combat and stealth is very mediocre

The story isn't noteworthy and neither are the characters, but that's nothing new for the series

The story is really bad and once again Jonah is barely used

Classic TR never needed a story, just a reason for why Lara wants artifact 'x' and why villain 'y' wants it

This has the best story of the trilogy, even if the main antagonist isn't that interesting.

I guess the devs forgot Creative Writing 101: A story is only as good as it's villain

This game has outstanding graphics, an amazing story and perfectly ends Lara Crafts epic journey for now!

Beautiful graphics,controls could be better, not as good as last 2 which I’ve played through several times

Good gameplay, decent graphics, pretty much more of the same, but with enhanced stealth

SotTR really feels like they just took the frame of TR Legend and tried to smack 2018 graphics on it, and it just doesn’t work

Some comments say bad graphics, and that is way off

Pretty good so far love the story mode gameplay is not too bad good

If you've played the others you'll love this one as well

There are still plenty of hidden tombs,bonus collectibles and side missions (pick those five flowers!)Basically if you enjoyed Tomb Raider HD and Rise of the Tomb Raider,you will enjoy this installment as well.

I hit the buttons at precisely the right time and place, but I died 10 times before the game worked

It was not enjoyable the first time in the first scene and it wasn't enjoyable in the final chapter.

Love this game, first time received a special edition, highly recommend.

Another issue is the puzzles aren't clear on how to progress so you gotta die 50 times to figure it out really dumb

There are way more puzzles (through challenge tombs) this time around making puzzles, exploration and combat very balanced compared to the past 2 games which are combat heavyYou can ignore most challenge tombs if you want to, but you won't get exp and weapon upgrades

stated.the gameplay was smooth for me,and the graphics awesome!ignore the 1 star ratings,there’s always a few bad apples in a bushel.this one seemed to have more tombs to plunder and quite a bit of

Though I might be a bit too harsh there because I really liked Rise of the Tomb Raider and this game did deviate a bit from it

But it's a bit harder than the last one since it feels like health regeneration is slower than before

Though I might be a bit too harsh there because I really liked Rise of the Tomb Raider and this game did deviate a bit from it

so not a cheap 4k tv(Not understanding people saying the graphics suck shrug).As mentioned before the main bad guy isn't interesting at all

Small spoiler at the beginning the main bad guy just lets you

but if your going around killing a main bad guy's men he is gonna kill you or at least hurt you

Some spoilers, but nothing you haven't seen from trailers)I get why Trinity works: its easy to justify the waves of bad guys when you lump them under the banner of "cult

my five stars will also help to negate the bad ratings that were unfairly given!

HOWEVER, I did this to negate the two stupid one star ratings

stated.the gameplay was smooth for me,and the graphics awesome!ignore the 1 star ratings,there’s always a few bad apples in a bushel.this one seemed to have more tombs to plunder and quite a bit of

Ignore negative reviews and get this game

With that said, there is some truth to some of the critical reviews

I am not understanding some of the poor reviews

I found myself unfortunately losing interest starting about 10% through Rise when I first detected an over-reliance on a McGuffin, and this apathetic interest level continued all through Shadow, at least for me

I lost interest very early on

This has the best story of the trilogy, even if the main antagonist isn't that interesting.
