[RagnarokIV]

According to eurogaymer, there’s a trigger warning when the trilogy starts up lol

Yup there sadly is such message. Crystal couldnt let the games be games

 

[SkylineRKR]

I played the Saturn version for the first time years ago and it was an interesting look at Tomb Raider running on Saturn hardware. I've always had a soft spot for inferior versions, they just ooze charm.

TR actually first released on Saturn in Europe, with the PS version about a month later. I always assumed Saturn was the lead but apparently they were all developed simultanously.

Saturn version was okay. It also has some things going on that fared better than on Playstation. It comes down to preference.

Grow up.

 

[Erebus]

My only gripe here is that they didn't include the fourth installment, "The Last Revelation" which I loved back in the day.

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

Just started playing. Tank controls, of course. Still undecided to use the d-pad or analog stick. But goddammit, the switch between old and new graphics is under Start on PS5, so very easy to flip it.
Last 20 minutes i'm just running and switching to compare… and it's the first 200 meters :/
I really, really like the PS1 era graphics. So much nostalgia and ambiance…

 

[Wooxsvan]

sweet. Switch port sounds amazing. 1080p/60 in dock, 720p/60 in portable. no drops detected !

 

[Ivan]

It's cool that the option is there for purists. I don't think I'll be sticking with them, though. I thought they were pretty clunky back in the day.

I totally get you, I used to think that way as a kid in 1996, but now I understend why that's huge part of the game's legendary status. It was too much for me back then coming from ultra responsive 2D platformers, but now I think it was a masterpiece. I wish we still had revolutionary approach to controls from time to time. Evolution that ended with Uncharted type of platforming/climbing really doesn't do it for me anymore.

I'm calling it here - this is going to be appearing in my top 10 list at the end of the year. Just amazing work.

Spoiler: .

Please now put the KOTOR games on the big boy consoles in 4K.

 

[skyfall]

Playing it now, it just unlocked

 

[amigastar]

Does anyone know what DRM this trilogy have? Denuvo?

 

[Sephimoth]

When does this unlock on steam? :/
It's the 14th here

EDIT: In 16 hours

 

[Elios83]

Just tried TR2 and it looks great
I'm used to the tank controls, actually for me they're integral part of how these games were designed and have zero issues with them.
I wanted to give a try to modern controls, they work and the movements are clearly more fluid with full camera control but it seems like it's not possible to do precise side jumps with them or to step back exactly one-grid space?!
Tomorrow I will give them an other try to understand if I'm missing something or if that's how they're supposed to work.

 

[Deerock71]

Where are you that this unlocked already?!

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

3.5 hours to go, locked and loaded on PS5

 

[skyfall]

Where are you that this unlocked already?!

UK PS5 - It unlocked at midnight

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Playing it now on PS5. Just did Lara’s home and the first level of the first game.

Yup, im a 10 year old kid again while im playing this. It’s everything i wanted and more.

 

[DeleteriousObnoxious]

i took the modern controls for a spin 1 hour in tomb raider 3's Manor. where you can try all her moves.
conclusion: good luck adapting to those controls for quick and precise time trials or just anything that require the slightest platforming skills. The obstacle course in the manor took me like 8 tries or more... and it was right at the beginning.
i will be sticking to tank controls for sure...

 

[Tams]

All I see is black on the remastered side.

 

[radewagon]

Yup there sadly is such message. Crystal couldnt let the games be games

Seems like they put the message there specifically to let the games be games. You'd rather they appease "the woke mob" (as I believe they are officially called) by censoring the games?

It's a non-issue. I've been looking forward to this title more than I care to admit.

 

[Gamerguy84]

I got 2 hours for this to unlock. Can't wait to play it though. It's probably been 20 years for me.

 

[alf717]

Any examples of this so called offensive stuff because I'm at lose as to what they even mean by that.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

I don't know if it has been posted but apparently the old mode switches to 30fps on all consoles. I quite like that for the old feeling but would definitely like a 60fps toggle in that mode.
(or even120fps in all modes)

Exactly! Disappointing ...makes me think I should get this for Switch since 30 fps doesn't feel bad on the small screen

 

[fatmarco]

RIGHT TRIGGER IS THE ACTION BUTTON on modern controls, and not "Y" like it says in the menu.

I spent like 10 minutes trying to grab a ledge until I figured it out lol.

Also for some reason "hide UI" and "reset settings" are both the "A" button in photo mode, so you can't set up a pose and take a picture currently.

 

[diffusionx]

While its still work in progress, I think I have more hope for the RTX remix



I hope they keep that Quake RTX concept where the geometry and texture work are mainly the same as the original, maybe a few PBR shaders for material to work with path tracing. To me it looks better than the remaster even in this early state.

It's crazy how shitty and soulless all these RTX Remix mods look, and how they just murder the art and artistic intent of the old games ruthlessly. It's like those shitty ENB mods from 10 years ago turned up to 100 (I am sure they are still around).

 

[fatmarco]

Esentially they argue they're selling a racist product, but are somehow at the same time trying to critique its existence.

If it was "inexcusable" and racist, then don't release it and profit from said racism.

 

[Erebus]

DF said that the PC version has not graphics settings whatsoever, can anyone confirm?

 

[Puscifer]

So ...what to get this on PS5 or Switch? I regretted getting MGS1 on Switch but that was a super shitty port. This will hopefully be 60 fps on Switch? Right?

Solid 1080/60 on switch, 4K/60 on current Gen

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

D-pad or analog?

 

[Zuzu]

D-pad or analog?

You can use either of them. You can also remap all the buttons on the console version (well the Series X version at least though I'm sure it's the same for all of them) so you can set up the controls however you want to.

I meant, what is everybodies preference?

 

[skyfall]

Dpad with original controls, as god intended.

 

[TrebleShot]

Correct, defaults to your max fps and res on display. Looks awesome.

What was so racist about Tomb Raider?

 

[Krathoon]

I wonder if there is a way to remove the racism warning.

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

How do you access photo mode on PS5?

 

[Sephimoth]

I wonder if there is a way to remove the racism warning.

On PC, add "-nolegal" to the launch options

 

[Krathoon]

Yep. They did an excelent job of remastering it. Looks great. I want to see if they still have those creepy skeleton mummy things in the Aztec level.

 

[Krathoon]

How do you exit the game? I had to Alt-F4.

 

[Con-Z-epT]

How do you access photo mode on PS5?

L3 + R3

 

[Camreezie]

How in the fuck has the tomb raider trilogy had a better glow up than the MGS trilogy

 

[Deerock71]

Effort was put into this. It's pretty evident Konami put as little effort into MGS as they could. Don't get me wrong,I'm enjoying both of them.

[John Bilbo]

I am wondering the same.

Edit: Select "Game" from the menu and press right -> Exit.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

You can turn it on or off independent of the two visual modes.

 

[John Bilbo]

The original graphics seem to be locked 30fps. OpenLara might be the way to go if you don't want to play with the new graphics.
