Im going to get flak for this but fuck it, I wanted to give classic Tomb Raider a fare shake but it just isnt for me.

Modern controls just = modern movement and thats it.

They just shit the bed to some areas and youre forced to swap to tank controls to stop the game from having a stroke.

The jump and grab mechanics are unchanged and still fucking awful and infuriating resulting in Lara refusing to grab and just deciding to end it all for no reason.

Modern controls imo need a patch.

So play Tank Controls; that's how the games were always meant to be played.

Tank controls were never good for 3D platforming.

They're fine. They just aren't for you.

Failing jumps and grabs when it has manual controls is peak skill issue

Say what you will about the classic TR games and there's a lot you can say, one thing you can't do is blame the controls when you fuck up. You're in full control and it's on a grid.

When the newer games started auto-mating everything and got confused what you were asking it to do, then you can blame the game.

If you don't press jump or you don't press grab or you don't get the distance right on the run up, that's on you.
