Even with some of its shortcomings (platform feels too forgiving and big issues with ludonarrative dissonance) the Tomb Raider reboot has something that just CLICKS with me. Is it the metroidvania level design? The miriad of beautifully crafted collectibles for you to find? Is it the often brutal combat? How its grungy bunkers and ships look like the perfect counterbalance to its alluring japanese temples and cherry blossoms? Lara's amazing butt? Tomb Raider 2013 has a lot for you to enjoy, but if you're a diehard fan of the original source material, then you'll probably find a lot more issues than me.
