So, Rise of the Tomb Raider gets better as your level up. Anyone planning to get Dishonored 2 next week?
I loved Rise of the Tomb Raider. I got 100%. One of the best adventure games . I had no issues with the story either.
I enjoy the challenge tombs and exploring/crafting. It's hitting the spot right now, but it's not quite Game of the Year quality to me. I would put Inside, The Witness, and Uncharted 4 above it right now (I realize RotTR came out last year, but I don't have an Xbox).
Is the crafting similar to Far Cry's crafting wheel? I loved that thing.
I can't remember Far Cry's system. This one is a pretty standard action game crafting system. Gather shit, different shit builds shit. You know. The ability upgrades are more fun.
What I loved about Far Cry's was that it was in-game and very simple, so you didn't have to leave the action to access a menu; I'd be pinned down behind cover, and could quickly craft a healing syringe or something.

I still play a ridiculous amount of Civ3.
Do you think the later ones are dumbed down? I didn't like 5 much.

Never played 5. I tried 4 when it came out and didn't like it all, so I just kept playing 3 all these years.
But I'm downloading 6 right now.

I don't have a computer than could even remotely run Civ 6 on its lowest settings.

You can "quick" craft ammunition, health packs, and explosives during combat in Tomb Raider.

Ditto. I'll wait for reviews, but then I plan to buy.

I think Titanfall 2 is the first multiplayer I've ever actually been decent at.

It'll be $30 on Black Friday at Best Buy and Amazon will price match. Then we can dance.

They don't have the players names on Tecmo Bowl just the numbers. Attributes are the same though. LT is all over the field!
