Instant brofist.
Shadow Tower: Abyss is love. Shadow Tower series in general = best harsh love ever.

Can't wait to start the fourth game.

Prepare yourself for a lot of brown. :roll:

IMO it's p. boring when compared to 1-3.
Some fags like it, though.

No you are the fag, TR4 is best TR.

Playing some Silent Storm. Tried to enter a building via the back windows to aid a guy I sent in the front to kill an enemy I knew was in the building, only to find unlike the front windows I can't open them from the outside, so I prepared to go around and do other stuff in the level with the people I sent, but heard a large group of enemy soldiers coming (I'm not sure they were after the people I sent. I think they may have been trying to get to the building I was defending and had the worst possible luck)

Thought I'd have to restart the mission, but remembered I gave everyone grenades and the two people I sent had automatic weapons.

Used a few turns of Eagle's after taking out most of the immediate attackers to have her run to the top of the building I was defending. She noticed some of our intelligence on the dead guy keeping watch and assumed position

But before she can use her position my main character, Steel kills the targeted soldier, the only one still alive. This happened in the first mission too (I put her to cover my main character advancing further in, but it turns out everyone outside was dead when I decided to advance. Only Steel, the girlly named Kenko and Toki got use there, and Kenko just picked some locks and shot at one guy), I hope it doesn't become a trend.
None of my men have been injured yet (outside of Steel in the opening bank heist), so Dani hasn't been used yet. Thankfully Axis cannon fodder is there for her to practice on

Also: Is there a hi-res patch for the game?

I wasn't sure who was the single one gay person here who actually liked TR4. I was like... "Was it Jarl? Nah, let's not fly accusations around"... :roll:

This is news to me. I had always heard that 3 was the shit one and 4 was a brief return to form. Anyway, the old Tomb Raider games give more credence to Infinitron's dungeon design theory. Someone on the team was probably an avid PnP player or DM.

Sorry bro, but TR4 has some of the best level design of the series, and those who claim it has "no variation" due to being set entirely in Egypt are wrong because it has variation. Each area has its own atmosphere, and it goes through different eras of Egyptian history. You have the classic Egyptian style at the first few stages, then in Alexandria you have the hellenistic library which is more Greek in style than classic Egyptian, you have a small section where you're attacked by undead crusaders, the apocalyptic modern Cairo with islamic mosques to explore, the apocalyptic step-pyramids at the end. Some of the levels have great puzzles, and the level design is overall very solid, only the first TR has levels I consider equal to the best of TR4.

He specifically cited DOOM and how it was basically a dungeon crawler without the stats and other RPG elements. The game was designed by people who played tabletop RPGs and their experience carried over into the game. By extension it applies to the games DOOM influenced with its labyrinthine maps, traps, puzzles, hidden doors/rooms. And in my opinion it carries over into Tomb Raider 1-4. The level design and ambiance are big reasons why I still love the feel of those games, and reasons the reboot is an abomination that lacks flavor and imagination. It's like no one knows how to do interior spaces well anymore. I play Hexen every year and it's Frank Lloyd Wright meets M.C. Escher level shit compared to games today. There were geniuses at work back in those days.

Yeah, I find that some of the best "dungeons" I've played come from first/third person action games of the early to mid 90s. Tomb Raider and Thief are two great examples. Currently playing Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 for the first time, and I don't even notice how ages the graphics are because the level design is so damn awesome. Can't remember the last time I went through levels that large and complex. Level design has really declined horribly in recent years.
