What’s Next for Tomb Raider?

The Late Night Gamer: With the release of Tomb Raider: The Definitive Edition for current generation consoles coming up later this month, I think it’s about time we sit down and ask ourselves what we really want from our dear old Lara Croft this time around. If you’re as big a nerd on the franchise as I am, we have much to discuss!

Bigger tits and less cloths -> SE

SquareSoft4521d ago

Bigger Breasts, Bigger World and SquareEnix seriously need a Unified Game Engine for Deus Ex, Hitman, Tomb Raider, Final Fantasy 16, Drakengard 4, Dragon Quest, Front Mission, Bravely, Kingdom Hearts. Many game engines, many problems. Less game engines, less problems.

NorbertJr4521d ago

What sense would it make for Hitman and Kingdom Hearts to use the same engine?

NorbertJr: Do you know what a game engine is!? It has nothing to do with the game...
It's a piece of software (framework - kind of a base to work on) that does the "basic" stuff so you can concentrate on the game itself.
Manages the memory, manages the particles, the texture loading, the 3d meshes loading, etc...

Of course, you can have an engine *optimized* for a certain genre of games (Like RED Engine 3 is for non-linear open world RPGs), but even that can probably also power a racing game (I'm throwing this one in the air)...

An example? Frostbite 3 does:
Need for Speed: Rivals, BF4, Mass Effect (4?), Dragon Age: Inquisition, etc ( http://pt.wikipedia.org/wik... )

The game goes well. Last one was very good. I hope they contuniue the same way.

-Foxtrot4521d ago

Hopefully a sequel thqt actually feels like a Tomb Raider game instead of Uncharted on steroids.

Oh and change Laras voice actress she sounded horrible in TR, it was so cringe worthy with her one liners and that

"Oh I hate Tombs"

Looks normal right...but her saying it....CRINGE :|

M1ST4K34521d ago

Man, I loved this TR... Was such a twist from the downfall that the series were going into...
I stopped playing TR since The Angel of Darkness (Played all the others) because of how bad I thought the games were becoming. This one was so good IMO...

The only thing I wanted was more Tombs... The ones in the game were great and left me craving for more...

I respect your opinion, anyway...

SaturdayNightBeaver4521d ago

They turned it into arcade casual cover shooter so more will buy, its all business. I beat it just because i was literally blinded with hype when it 1st came out. Then i realized how actually shit game it was, nowhere good like old real TR games.

FreshRevenge4521d ago

How about a Tomb Raider with more Tombs to explore. Plus a Lara that does somersaults and fights dinosaurs and uses dual pistols.

M1ST4K34521d ago

Please, the bow has to stay :D

MasterofMagnetism4521d ago

I'd agree. More exploration and puzzle solving. Less action set pieces and shooting sequences.

SaturdayNightBeaver4521d ago

it would only bring them less money and lower reviews. they don't care about some few oldschool fans who would like a real TR game. i really can't wait to laugh at next game when it comes out.

Scrivlar4521d ago

I'm pretty shocked at the negativity about the first one I was actually really taken in by the story and acting I thought it was brilliant, you could slowly see Lara becoming less of a victim and more of a badass, kind of like the "Arrow" series. And I thought the action was better than Uncharted. Only thing I'd like more of is Tombs, that's it.

Peter_Warrior4521d ago

I don't know what Enix has prepared for the next installment, but I hope it's as good as this one.
Btw, I guess we won't count that CCG coming to mobiles as a "true" Tomb Raider game, don't we?
