On topic, mates ;-).
Did anyone else notice the somewhat poor character quality of Lara? I mean, if she's standing still, and you start to walk, it looks like she leans forward before taking the first step. That's not weird at all.
On top of that, didn't they say that when it rains, the dirt would wash off her? It didn't - and I hate seeing Lara get dirty.

Quoted from "Catracoth"

... which was the same poison that reanimated Amelia into a thrall ...


Mh, I wonder whether Amelia is dead now, or a thrall once more. On the one hand, Lara shoot her, but on the other hand, she stumbled backwards, in the Eitr again. What do you think?

I think Amelia died a long time ago.

I'm with Jana, I'm pretty sure the Amelia Croft we all knew died long ago. At least her spirit did anyway. I mean, true her body was still alive, but it was not the same woman we used to know. However, there was a part of her, and I do not know how dominant that part was, that remembered Lara and remembered who she was. It's just a shame that Lara didn't realize that Amelia was trying to hug her before she shot her off the cliff. It's all too sad to think about, which is why I try to refrain from doing it.

So I didn't just imagine it looked like she wanted to hug her daughter ...

Hm, I don't quite understand how she could remember her daughter when her spirit died?

Well, I ended up getting it a year later than I had planned.

Anyway, I just finished it and it was just slightly disappointing. I enjoyed Legend much more...This game's controls were bad and everything just seemed depressing. Legend was much easier than Underworld imo. Underworld felt more like the older Tomb Raiders than Legend did? Well, to me anyway. xD

So I don't understand this storyline. Her Mother died, but Lara thought she could get her Mother back, which is what her Father tried to do?
Then she sees her Mother as a thrall and then shoots it? So what was Lara's purpose of going to Helheim? Everything was fake? Natla tricked Lara liked she tricked Lara's father...? I'm so lost! Haha.

So the place that Lara returned to was where she finished off in Legend right? That's why she said "We're back to this?"


Also I don't like the way Lara or Amanda look in this game. XD

Got it. Played it. Finished it.
It was quite fun actually. :-) There were some :ouch: - moments, and it took me a while to learn some new movements, like the new headshot. I had to play it with medium details and without all the shadow or water effects etc. But even then the game looked good. :-)
Now I'm looking forward on the Tomb Raider 9 (if I have any hope that any computer that is located in my household will be able to run it at least with low visual settings)... :thumbsup
