3/5 in my opinion, the game has quite a few bugs that cause you to die, or force you to reload the game. The weapons are pretty stiff and feel unresponsive at times. The characters sounded bored at some parts (especially when reading artifacts/journals.) The story is pretty easy to follow, nothing really complex or confusing. The characters are pretty bland and useless, Jonah still has no character to him. Lara has thrown out any character development from the last two games out of the window and has replaced it with her selfishness. Lara kills more innocent people in the beginning of the game than we've seen Trinity do in Rise and Shadow. The plot was pretty predictable too, I guessed who was gonna die and when and what was going to happen next. Luddington is obviously tired of being Lara, you can hear it in her voice whenever she's speaking, she's also just not good at voice acting. Period. None of them are. The graphics are stunning but like it's predecessors, the rushing water graphics are absolutely atrocious. The music is beautiful and I find myself listening to the soundtrack quite often. The puzzles in this game are more difficult this time and it does feel like a true Tomb Raider game at times. You won't be stuck there for an hour like the older games, but it will stump you. I suggest putting the game on hard mode if you want it to feel more like a Tomb Raider game. Overall, it's not bad, but certainly not the best either.
