>>11881589 (OP) The game in the screenshot is Heavy Metal FAKK2, it's good but only like 4 hours long, still runs well on W10/11 machines due to its Quake 3 tech.
>>11881589 (OP) Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine is a Tomb Raider ripoff which is hilarious because Tomb Raider was a ripoff of Indiana Jones in the first place.
>>11881589 (OP) If you're linguistically endowed there's Blade Arts: Tasogare no Miyako R'lyeh on the PS1. Platforming, puzzle solving and sword swinging ARPG combat.
>>11882815 Holy shit this looks peak >>11882123 I agree I played this and thought it handles and looks like Tomb Raider. The objectives can get a bit touchy. its good
>>11881589 (OP) there are no games that truly understood what made tomb raider all early 3D adventure-platformers, including those are more direct tr clones or derivatives, were just shallow copies without 1% of the movement/traversal depth, level design and gameplay mechanics
>>11885575 This is an unfair comparison, FAKK2 has way better combat than TR, it's got both melee and ranged weapons, as well as shields, it even lets you dual wield! The platforming is not much but you can shimmy and hang off ledges, which is something I guess.
>>11881589 (OP) Barbie: Explorer (PS1). I know it sounds like a joke, and when you get into it everything sounds worse, it's both a Tomb Raider and a Crash Bandicoot clone... but man, it plays alright! It's relatively short, challenging at times, but nothing crazy if you're not going for 100% completion, which is infuriating and made me give up on it, but a regular run? I'd recommend trying this... at least once.

what does Drakan have to do with Tomb Raider? dumb retard coomer
>>11885575 This but unironically. Comapnies just rushed to release whatever they could make and by time someone figured out how the game worked the industry had moved onto ripping off Ocarina of Time and Super Mario 64. Tomb Raider gameplay was quickly outclassed and the series itself stagnated despite having great level design.
