I always preferred the platforming and controls on the old games compared to the new ones from the remske of first game etc.

Lololol what a lazy ass looking "remaster"

Although I suppose even if they gave it the same stellar treatment as the crash and spyro trilogy remaster, it still wouldn't make it any better when it's a fundamentally unenjoyable series of games that's not fun to play.

Which is weird because by Tomb Raider 2 they were already not pointy, so triangle titties is specifically a Tomb Raider 1 thing.

They aged fine. I still play them from time to time and would easily take them over the new ones.

Dunno how you're able to do it, as the challenge of the games back then was fairly fake due to the controls and damn near exact tile-based platforming nature.

Learning how the controls and game works.

Croft Manor has tutorials where Lara goes in detail explaining how the game mechanics work. From there it is just practice until mastering the controls. Once it clicks, it becomes second nature and the jump system is complex and has a lot of depth and control not in seen in other games at the time. Never feels like it is the game's fault if I miss a jump rather mistiming on my part.

It's like people didn't realize how nice it was to be exact for the platforming. IIRC, a single hop back from a ledge gave you the exact distance for a running jump. Vague memories of doing 3 single steps to line yourself up for something too.

The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.

Not quite, as I started with TR3 (friend long ago gave it to me cuz he got frustrated with the game) and by then things were very barebones in explaining anything.

Yeah, once you got the controls down pat, it was a beautiful thing. All the fumbling rookie mistakes of the early levels -- like trying to catch ledges at angles or falling off cliffs because of missed jumps -- disappear.

Yep, unfair spikes all over the place (especially that god-awful kayak area), poison enemies all over the place now, and water in the cold areas now makes you freeze to death in like five seconds.

Especially if it was the PS1 version which messed up the save system.

Still my favorite jump system. The player is given so much control, and the depth to the system beautiful.

That happened to me when I played the remaster of Turok 2. After all these years, I never knew the enemies could fight each other.

Happens in the Thief games too. You can basically get anything living to fight with the zombies, just a matter of luring them into meeting each other.

I loved the TR games as a kid and recently played them again as an adult.

They didnt age well at all. Empty messes, shitty level design, boring enemies, and she constantly goes "MHMMMM" for everything.

When annivesary was annocued back in the day, I was told it was gonna be a remake of TR1-3 and I thought that sounded amazing

I was so disappointed when it turned out to just be a 1 to 1 remake of the Original.

I'm dissapointed again by this "Remaster"

A remake of the classic PS1 TR games with modern quality of life improvements would be sick

This is pretty cool, it's preserving the original games while updating the visuals to look exactly like the box art and promo art at the time. Not anniversarizing it, but making that solid choice of fuck yeah, we liked those games and want to do right by them.
