Which Tomb Raider era is the best? Which one is the worst without counting The Angel of Darkness ?
The original five games, LAU trilogy or nu-lara?

>Which Tomb Raider era is the best?
I'd have to say classic. Legends Lara improved gameplay wise with each game, but both Legends and Underworld are just so bloody short
>Which one is the worst without counting The Angel of Darkness?
Objectively speaking that'd be Chronicles, even though I dislike Rise and Shadow more. Also AOD is unironically my favourite.
>The original five games, LAU trilogy or nu-lara?
Classic Lara, all day, everyday.

The one with the nude patch

If we're strictly looking at consistent quality, LAU trilogy. All three games were solid and faithful to the original series while doing enough different, and Lara still felt like Lara.
The Nu-Raider trilogy had a promising enough start with the first game being a "Okay let's see where they go with this" deal, but Lara never got better as a character and never evolved into the confident badass she used to be, which I originally thought was the point of an origin story reboot. Plus the second two games were bland and didn't improve on anything done in the first, and actively made othets worse.
The original five games suffer because of the last two being mediocre rehash garbage that one dev even admitted on Chronicles was just unused shit from other games, and forcing a dev to make a game usually results in rushed half assed crap.

LAU trilogy, and although I prefer nu-Lara.

haven't played all of those. i'll just go with LAU trilogy. it's buggy ass shit but still sort of fun trilogy.

>Best era
Classic. The first game is still one of my favorite games and the atmosphere of the Classic era titles has never been imitated in later eras
>Worst title
Chronicles.

Did shadow flop?

Honestly every incarnation of Tomb Raider (except for AoD) has the same problem of starting off the best and then backpedaling in quality with every next game until reboot.

Speaking of incarnations. Which incarnation of Lara has the best personality in your opinion?

Probably didn't exactly flop, but from how it ended seemed like it was the last game. Of course only until the inevitable reboot.

>but from how it ended seemed like it was the last game
I haven't played the game, but I heard that Lara personality wise hasn't much changed since 2013 Tomb Raider, so if that's true that this is a rather weird and weak place to end the series (for now until another reboot).

It hasn't changed much. Kinda the same. Well basically she retired because the old i want to spend time with the living instead of skeletons

I've always liked Lara when she goes full nothing personnel, so either AOD or Underworld

>Which Tomb Raider era is the best?
Classic
>Which one is the worst without counting The Angel of Darkness ?
TR3 or Chronicles

So she gave up on adventuring? Wasn't the whole point of the 2013 Tomb Raider to show off how she started and what made her choose the path of adventurous archaeologist? How many in-game years passed between 2013 TR and Shadow? Did she even become a famous archaeologist?

Far as I know every single Tomb Raider game takes place the year it comes out except Anniversary. So 2013 for reboot, 2015 for Rise and 2018 for Shadow

Nu TR series cause she's the most fappable there.

Wasn't too heavily invested in the story line. But sure it seemed to me imply that she was done adventuring. Too many people died because of her and all that stuff. Plus I believe they defeated the trinity or whatever that organization was called. the big bad anyway. But who knows. It may came back and lara have to take action once again.

its rising of the tomb raider getting any good soon i want to skip it to shadow of the tomb raider. I like mayan settings and i like the island setting in the first one but this cold ass winterfell shit its not that nice. Besides open world mechanics... its ok if i just go for the story?

I remember a game my Aunty got my and brothers either on PS1 or PS2 where it started off with her having to jump or climb and somewhere throughout the game you get attacked by a big cat of sorts.

That's tr2(PS1).

Rise of the TR is the only good one. SoTR has too much puzzles and story leads to nowhere.

nu-lara games are literal cancer.
>LE CUTSCENES
LE QUICK TIMES
LE TELL YOU WHERE TO CLIMB
LE NO ACTUAL TOMBS TO RAID
LE FAT DYKE LARA

OG games are the best

Same. New Lara's looks with LAU Lara's personality and gameplay would be perfect.

Cheers, yea that was a pretty shitty game in a shitty game series.

>the atmosphere of the Classic era titles has never been imitated in later eras
This.

I really don't know how they pulled it off so well but it is so fucking good.
