i can't lie, i didn't have the best impression of the past lara croft games, but this one really won me over. the environment is immersive and well-crafted, the action scenes are exciting and cinematic, and it's consistently good throughout, front to back. the story is pretty light and can be a bit nonsensical. i still find it funny that in the midst of an ongoing kidnapping sacrificial ritual, lara keeps getting distracted by shiny trinkets like, "oh, a vase!" like girl sam is going to die ðŸ˜ðŸ˜

interesting corporate cyberpunk premise but it’s not gripping for me. similar to disco elysium, the first 30 mins of the game are a bit rocky with the feeble world-building. kinda conflicted what to judge this game by, the story is not interesting enough as a visual novel, so the experience is very unforgiving when the gameplay and visuals are extremely minimal. thankfully this is on game pass so i don't have to pay for the full price considering the lack of content here

Being addressed only by my racing number constantly is giving Agent 47 lmao
This is genuinely the most fun I've had with a racing game in a while. The bar for progression and story in the racing genre is admittedly pretty low, but here they were the highlights of the experience for me. The career mode story was entertaining, the mix of live-action and CGI cutscenes was innovative, and the office style mockumentary had me chuckling throughout.
The simcade handling model is one of the best among EA's racing games. I hope NFS moves in this direction instead of doubling down on the drift-heavy gameplay. Docking half a star because multiplayer is a mess and you can't create custom races without opening an online lobby for some reason.
Regardless, this is a massively underrated series, and I enjoyed it FAR more than Forza Motorsport.
