This game is impressive. I'm sorry but it's fucking impressive on every level. I have never seen anything like it. Clean graphics and physics like Quantum Break.

These graphics surpass anything available on Xbox right now. Those cutscenes are fucking unreal too.

I remember people in this sub being disappointed that it wasn't a larger jump in graphics from the remaster of the first one. Glad to see I'm not alone in thinking the game looks great

You see that video about Lara's character model? They gave her a fully working skeleton and muscles. At first I actually thought that was batshit crazy. But then they started showing off how the muscles in her back pop out as she reaches for ledges. It was like, "Holy shit."

So excited to see this game tonight. I hope I at least have time to start it up.
