The effort you put into these is greatly appreciated my man.
Thank you! That means a lot to see that ♥️
Abso fuckin' lutely
Agreed, only just stumbled across these now. Nostalgia bomb. Great videos
saaaaaaame im binging the videos while working haha
Agreed!
The puzzle at 31:45 is actually based on a real ancient Egyptian board game, Senet.
And they give you the rules for it with the name included
let's not forget that TR4 has the engine (updated though), that's still being used to make custom levels to this very day! insane!
also, YOU CAN SWIM SIDEWAYS???
When you float on water, yes.
Idk about TR1, but you can swim sideways on 2 and 3 too
@@eternallight4425 definitely can in tr 1, you just use the “side step” buttons while at the waters surface
Those honk noises for those honkers are perfection.
This game literally took my whole childhood to complete. It wasn't until I was an adult that I actually beat it. I'm a new sub and am really enjoying watching your TR reviews!
i miss the age of games that were genuinely difficult, i think developers are afraid of doing that now because it limits market share or some similar marketing nonsense.
That's how the N64 game Jet Force Gemini was for me. I got it when I was probably seven or eight and didn't finally beat it til I was 17. That was such a bittersweet day. lol
Although TR4 has more levels, each level is actually noticeably shorter than TR2 and TR3. I also don’t find the Egyptian aesthetics and single environment setting tiring, because most levels have their own unique looks, and together, all these levels paint a very coherent in-game civilization. This principle of aesthetics is very similar to the Tomb Raider 2013 reboot and Rise of Tomb Raider, while the majority of the games takes place in one location, each environment is different enough for the player to distinguish them.
Considering TR4 is a Play Station 1 game, this design and attention to details is very impressive. Furthermore, if you actually look at some of the structures in real life, apparently, Core Design did a very good job recreating these locations in a PS1 game with graphic limitations.
Tr4 and tr1 (has a few Egypt levels) made me fall in love with Egypt history. And like you said, they did a great job in TR 4 recreating many real places in Egypt. I learned so much of history playing TR games.
18:40 Little fact, in the french version, we got the same voice actress (Françoise Cadol) from the first Tomb Raider until the reboot of 2013. And she was absolutly perfect to the role.
That's amazing!
@@SteveOfWarr Indeed. And even in Angelina Jolie movies. So it helped well to make Lara Croft iconical in France with her having the same very recognizable voice. I really get surprised it wasn't the same for the original english version
The same for the German version which was really helpful for the immersion and the connection of Tomb Raider I to actually Tomb Raider Underworld in our case.
It's also the same thing in Italian
I bet when you decided on the name Steve of Warr you didn't realize you'd become the definitive Tomb Raider channel on TH-cam.
Yeah its hilarious that he has no content to do with gears of war
If I recall, in an interview with a core member, Lara's more revealing top during gameplay was something forced by the higher ups. (not sure if the heads of Core Design or The publisher Eidos.)
@Trent Shut up, nerd.
@Trent Shut up, dweeb.
@Trent I thought I blocked your stupid homophobic ass already. Be gone, douche!
Me as a 15 year old did not complain.
Tomb Raider 2 and the Last Revelation were my favorite of the original series
33:01 Semerkhet’s line here is “With his amulet and his armour, he is once more poised to battle and defeat, Set.”
Usually when I see smaller youtubers do the skits format popularised by bigger youtuber I find that they miss the mark but this ongoing Winston plot is hysterical. Good job man. Cant wait to keep watching these.
I just recently started playing this again for the first time since I started it 22 years ago on the Playstation in 1999. I may be in my 50s now but my love for the Tomb Raider franchise is as strong as it was back in the late '90s and I am actually replaying all five original titles again on a Playstation emulator. It is amazing that for each title there are particular feelings and memories I have associated with certain levels and scenarios and I can picture in my mind and "feel" the exact time I originally experienced those scenarios, even down to who interrupted my gameplay of TR3 with a work-related telephone call at gone 9pm that evening!
My respect goes to you sir
I'm 24 and Ive loved this series since I was a little girl
That Winston monitor gag was genius.
No matter how much I watch this video..I always laugh so hard at this joke 😃
Man, this is so nostalgic to see this game for me. I remember sitting in the living room with my Dad on weekend evenings, turning all the lights off and just watching him play through The Last Revelation. The graphics at the time blew my tiny 5 year old mind. Occasionally he would put the cheats in for me and just let me run around some of the open spaces shooting walls with the cross bow, mostly because I was too scared to actually play any of the real game.
Dude, INCREDIBLE. The amount of effort you put into these reviews is insane. Your narrative and camera cutaway bits are absolutely hilarious. Keep up the great work!
Unless core design came back and develop TR again .. this game will be the best game in the world . Literally brilliant
Crystal Dynamics did a much better job with the trilogy.
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 Troll begone
@@TCFan30 Crystal Dynamics did alright with Legend... Kind of butchered the appeal of the OG TR with Anniversary..
Kinda makes me wonder about where the series could reasonably go post Shadow
@@TCFan30 Underworld was a good evolution. Core would have done a much better job but they did need a break.
‘An almost LEDG END DER EY artefact!’
That used to crack me up as a kid! 🤣🤣
amUlet 😂
Ankor WHAAAAT
The grenades do no damage due to a weird quirk on the PC Port.
On the PS1 version, they DO damage you, which also means Lara's own grenades damage her.
There is a fan-fix for it but its still a strange thing.
Your reviews are so much fun, I love listening to other people's thoughts on these games 😊
Thank you! I'm happy my ramblings about these games are entertaining lol
The Karnak hub gave me the same trouble it did for you when I beat it myself for the first time (via an unofficial US PS1 emulation on PSP) back in 2009, meaning I had to rely on Stella’s walkthrough to get through the first time. I did enjoy the “wizard’s chess version” Senet game against the robot semerkhet head though. Speaking of which, I actually have a senet board in real life and I can confirm it is basically Egyptian Backgammon with a little chess strategy mixed in. The lose route also has the first appearance of the wraiths (the flying jellyfish we used to call elementals before the level editor came out) where a fire wraith and an ice wraith can be pitted against each other.
The piano keys as dice are real too, the main difference to TR4 being that rolling a 1 or a 4 also gives you an extra turn, not just 6. (Rolling a 6 being all black sides) Real senet also looks a little different, being more like the smaller board you see in Obelisk of Khamoom near eye of Horus bridge, but with 3 rows of tile spaces, no ankh squares and three shield squares & a water hazard near the end.
Speaking of the terrible puzzle design, the FPS RPG Pathways into Darkness by Bungie (Yes, that Bungie. Also about pyramids and sealing away malevolent gods) has similar puzzles as well but with either extremely subtle clues similar to the hieroglyph sheet in TR4 or none at all. The absolute worst ones are the red cloak for the suffocation room on one floor, drinking a poison potion to get past the green poo monsters on the next one and remembering to keep a lead box you find during the second “boss fight” because the key you get after the final boss much later to escape is radioactive and cooks you in seconds as soon as you pick it up.
The "giant chocolate orange" got me good!! 🤣🤣 Awesome video ♥
According to the book 20 Years of Tomb Raider, they went with the unskippable tutorial as they hit the Room Editor's map size limit for TR3's mansion, meaning they couldn't grow it anymore. It was planned to return in Angel of Darkness but cut, as was an early story idea to have Lara burn down the manor prior to going to Paris (sound familiar?). TRAE was going to finally have an engine capable of growing the mansion even more than TR3 in a new engine similar to but not the same as the AOD one (I used to think the TRAE/Free Running engine was the AOD one but Core confirmed it wasn't). However in the only existing (so far) leaked build, the most new areas included were a new section of the gym for practicing Lara's TRAE moves and a large unfinished area that could have been yet another gym room or something else. Planned areas included the outdoor areas (can't remember if the assault course was going to be included too) and a treasure room that was basically the TRA one crossed with a bonus level select menu, complete with a laptop for trading secrets with other players if you needed rarer ones someone else had.
in TR4, it's also worth mentioning that if you get all secrets in Ankor Wat, you're forced to take a harder route through the race unless you exploit a glitch with the final secret at the path fork. This other route not only feels longer and is harder to proceed if Von Croy gets too far ahead (such as breaking a bridge or closing a door like the other path) but the early pits on this route have spikes in them.
You also need to make your save on this level before you trigger the cutscene at the start of the race. If you save in the middle of the race and reload, you're locked into the losing cutscene, presumably the game thinking you're cheating.
I almost died choking to death after you got to the part about each ass cheek. Omfg 🤣🤣🤣 These reviews are so detailed, but you also make us laugh so much. I'm just about to watch part II of The Last Revelation. I just wish they made more games, just so you could review them!
*UPDATE* Behind the Scenes post for this video is now live to all Patrons - www.patreon.com/posts/tomb-raider-4-27400737
Hey everyone!
Thanks to all who tuned into the live premiere and to anyone who has stopped by to check this video out.
If anyone can spare the time to drop a like and share this around online I'd really appreciate it 😊
Part 2 has already been scripted and recording for it has already started! So it won't be too long until it comes out and I can move on to making the Tomb Raider Chronicles video.
Thanks again and I'll see you all on the next one ♥️
These retrospective TR reviews are great! Will you be doing the same for the expansions? (Unfinished business, Golden mask and lost artefact)
@@HighlandCowboy01 I've had quite a few requests to cover those expansions, but I must admit it's not something I originally planned on covering.
Maybe I'll do it one day if I reach a certain milestone like reach my next goal on Patreon or if I reach a certain number of subscribers. Who knows... 😉
The rope swing mechanic.... OH GOD, the rope swing. TR4 was my first foray into Tomb Raider and video games in general. Thus it will always hold a very special place. But that 2 rope swing in the Catacombs, has scarred me for life!! And the mummies with barfing noises :)
MACHO BROCKOLEEEEEHH
So it needs to be stated right away that this is MY favorite of the PS1 Tomb Raider games. It's extremely story driven and the amount of detail in the levels as well as the many new mechanics make the game feel like an entirely new beast compared to its predecessors. I love that it's condensed into a singular location rather than globetrotting since it allows the location to become it's own character. The Egyptian tombs in this game are very dark and feel menacing whereas in the previous games, since you're only in one location for four or five levels, there's not enough time to develop character for the levels. The music I love personally. The main title theme is sets the tone for the game incredibly well. While the original TR theme will always be iconic, I can say that after that (and perhaps the Venice theme in TR2) the Last Revelation theme is very impressive in it's own right. Yes, the tutorial is annoying but there actually IS a way to skip Von Croy's dialouge (select button I think) so you can get through it in under 10 minutes if you know the layout and what needs to be done.
I had never played a TR game before when I played this, so the tutorial was necessary for me as the controls were quite difficult.
These are some of the best reviews for the classics yet. Can't wait for part 2!
By the way, the flash grenades DO have a purpose, but it's only useful if you're hording health: If you use it on human enemies, it blinds them for a few seconds, allowing you to get some free hits on them. It doesn't work on animals or supernatural enemies, however, and obviously does zero damage.
Thank you so much!
Honestly I figured that would be the case for when to use the flash grenades, but I never found the right moment to use them ans was able to do fine without them, so just never bothered switching to them. 😅
The buggy design of the grenades going off on top of you and not hurting you is a good bug because it works in your favor. One you probably shouldn’t complain about lol. If only all game bugs were like that
Burst out laughing at the boulder bit 😂
Can't wait for Part 2 and Chronicles! 😃
I was afraid of being "burnt out by the Egyptian aesthetic", but it didn't have that effect on me at all. I remember thinking "oh no is this all in one location? thats going to get same-y" - but they really visually distinguish the levels so well. It felt refreshing every time they set up a new aesthetic. And i remember entering some of these locations for the first time and just going "oh wow".
A young co-worker and I were tag-teaming the PC version of this game on a rather under powered laptop back when the game was first released. We had to run it at lower graphics resolution and fewer effects to keep the laptop from catching fire. Literally! As a result, in some rooms it was very difficult if not impossible to see exactly where Lara needed to jump, crawl, or move due to poor lighting or wall textures that all looked the same on the PC screen. So, we got stuck in this one particular area for the longest time, but we both refused to use an online walk-through website for help. It was a matter of principle for us. Another co-worker had the PS1 version and was racing to complete the game before my friend and I could finish it on the PC. We asked him if got past the area we were stuck in, and he said he had no problem. I asked him if he used the walk-through guide for help, and he said he hadn't, but I didn't believe him. Anyway, my buddy finally figured out how to get us through the room, and I eventually got the other co-worker to admit he HAD indeed used the walk-through guide more than once to gain an advantage over us. The PS1 beat the PC to the finish line, but only with help from the guide. I have fond memories of completing this game with my friend and doing it without any guide help. Many "all-nighters" made it quite frustrating at times, but also lots of fun team work and a sense of accomplishment at the end. Thanks for the cool look back.
I've only just discovered you recently but i love your videos
I love your humour your passion
Im such an avid classic Raiding fan
So thank you for doing these
Aww man, I used to watch my dad play this game back then and I was fascinated with it..I just bought the game a few days ago on Steam and bruh, I feel you on those issues!
You kept the joke in! As always, outstanding production. There will be gifs ;)
Hell yeah I did! I couldn't let a good joke like that go unheard 😋 I need those Gifs in my veins!
I was on a Nostalgia Trip one day, watching longplays of various PSX games that I played when I was a kid, and now I couldn't as my PSOne was busted over 5 years now. Then I saw this review. And then I watched it, and thought: _"Wow. This review is pretty good! Concise points, extensive coverage, and funny bits and side comments."_ then I looked at the SubCount and Views. I was like *_W h a t_*
You deserve more subs, and more importantly, VIEWS. This is the only video that covers a whole layer of the game than just pointing what is what. Amazing video, bud. You got my sub. I'll be watching your other vids. Thanks for bringing back a piece of my childhood. Cheers.
Hey man I just want to say that your content is priceless. So many GREAT reviews. Thank you. What a nice and necessary person you are.
My first Tomb Raider game that I first played on Sega Dreamcast. It's my favorite to this day, but I admit, the game was difficult because it was hard to figure out what to do on some levels. And that underwater puzzle under the sphinx was HELL!! I really liked the atmosphere in this game.
At 5:35,
“The 1st obstacle.
A small hop, to test your-
how do you say?
Plaque.
Press and hold ‘Walk’,
now push ‘Forward’.”
“No.”
(OOOH!!!!!)
(SWAG!)
Steve Of Warr, that is by far my favourite part in this video!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It was worth the wait, and glad to see see this. Can't wait for Part 2!
Absolutely fantastic look at this game. It's kind of amazing to see Lara's actions portraying her in a somewhat villainous light. Great jokes, solid editing, just an overall awesome video, dude, and I can't wait for part two.
Thank you man! I'm glad you thought the editing was good. Took me ages to put those parts at the start and end together lol 😅
More great work! Can't wait for Part 2!
It's funny how the story mirrors the story in Legend. Von Croy has a valid reason to be mad at Lara for abandoning him and never trying to rescue him in the same way as she did to Amanda in that game. I mean clearly they both survived so the attitude of, "oh they're obviously dead, let's move on with our lives and never return." was probably pretty hurtful.
Played this multiple times and still have that "Where the hell am I supposed to go?" feeling. In Kairo, I was so frustrated, that I literally managed to just skip some puzzles. Let's just say, I have never seen the key for the roof. Also, I think it's really sad, that the soundtrack is so forgetful. Maybe it forgot, which game it was playing in, and that's why the soundtrack is so forgettable. Anyway, great review as always. The editing and the humor are just incredible!
I need part 2! Ooooohhh Wiiinnnstoooon!
Love these! Really well Made and really bringing me back to my TR days !
I love your editing so mica! Can't wait for part 2!
Thank you! I look forward to seeing what you think of it ^_^
Fantastic work! The review is very good by itself but what makes it so special is your sense of humour. Man I love that british tone! Your jokes and attitude always crack me up.
I replayed TR4 two months ago because I wanted to be prepared for your video. I agree with almost everything you said and I'm so glad to know I wasn't the only one to be stuck by a simple closed door (26:09)... Anyway I'm really looking forward to part 2!
Thank you! Glad to know I wasn't the only one stumped by a closed door 😅😂
Great review!
You cleared up a lot of nostalgia around it.
these retrospectives are one of the only things getting me through my depressive episode so thank you for that ❤️
Happy to help!
So worth the wait. You are so damn good at these. Loving the series so much.
Thank you so much! ^_^
TRTLR and a Ryo Hazuki jacket in the same video? I hit like!
21:39 The guide actually sits in the car, watching his buddies fight Lara, turning from one window to another while she is jumping around the place. After seeing that she is killing it, he finds his grenade launcher, but in the last second he decides to drive away instead of challenging her like his now dead buddies.
32:10 If you lose the game you win secrets, items, enemies, more challenge and fun.
Very pleased to see the return of MACHO BROCCOLI
12:00 Aw, that was so cute!
The music is good, like in every other Tomb Raider game, in my opinion. Not just the Jeep Theme. I like the Theme from the Temple of Horus very much and a Theme in Cleopatras Palast. I can´t remenber to the Title, but it was really very nice.
Easiest sub ever. Awesome vid!
All I can say in her defence is that at least when she realises she done fucked up, she immediately sets out to put things right!
Although, one thing that always bugged me about this game is that when she shoots the rocket launcher goon, she actually has different handguns to when she held up her guide... AND IN THE VERY SAME LEVEL AS WELL!! What the actual hell!!
Also, yay for Exodia! Fitting too!
Wideshot ammo is used against groups of enemies (would have been a Godsend in 2) and super grenades IIRC fire cluster munitions that explode to all sides, for the same purpose. With crossbow, ammo types are more self-explanatory, explosive bolts replace TR3's bazooka.
About the tutorial, if you collect all the red skulls throughout "basic training", Mr. Von Gemany McGerman Croy takes you to an alternate path with harder platforming and real traps (like spikes) instead of just harmless shallow pits and pools, just something I found out after replaying that level so many times without realizing that you could skip cutscenes that will be forever burned into my mind (MAKE IT STOP, PLEASE! MAKE IT STOOOOP!").
Also, that gun vs sword joke instantly reminded me of this: th-cam.com/video/kQKrmDLvijo/w-d-xo.html
Really enjoying your videos, Steve. Just the right mix of nostalgia and fair criticism (usually it's either "perfect game, no flaws" or "20-minute rant") and they have me laughing all the way.
Seriously AMAZING Videos mate
Loving these videos, they're really interesting to watch plus some parts have me laughing out loud!
12:45 This is consistent with TR3, where you can literally get shotgun in opening area, it was just stupidly hidden under vegetation. (And TR2 started you with a shotty). What IS different is that duplicate weapons do not turn into ammo pickups visually as they used to in TR2 and 3. There are TONS of places you can find same weapon but most players won't see since they already have it from somewhere else... FINALLY, the reason you have same weapons appear multiple times is allowing for a pistol start, I assume for debugging, or with the (cut) level select. In TRLE you can start from any level and it's welcome having weapons too not just ammo and assuming you got them earlier.
Just now seeing this and only because I literally searched for it. Thanks TH-cam. It's not like Tomb Raider videos are the videos I watch for the longest and have been watching with this account since 2013.
Sounds like another day on TH-cam... Glad you found it eventually! 🤣😀😀
Steve! you should do a skit dedicated to Winston 100% that would be pure gold 🤣
How have I only just came across your channel?! You have just earned yourself a subscriber! 😁
Great video, amazing job
Is Lara going to save you... without you even knowing you need rescuing? :D
This was somehow more critical than I expected, although I can't say it was often unfair. I didn't think much about TR4 until I finally (finally!) finished it several months ago and I kinda love it since then. It does have a much more cinematic feel I haven't noticed years back, when I was just frustrated about not knowing where to go (and considering when I first bought the game almost 20 years ago... I didn't even understand English, so yeah).
Death beetles! Ugh, yes. Also I actually like the guys with the bullet-proof swords because while they take longer to kill, they don't hurt me at all (unless I come closer or keep weapons holstered for too long and they pull out their uzis).
Well, this was a lot of fun! Didn't expect it to be in two parts, but TR4 really is quite long so it makes sense. Looking forward to part 2!
Great to see you drop by and check this out! Really glad to see you enjoyed and Part 2 is on the way!
TR4 was the second game I played as a teenager. In my opinion, you misled fans first assumptions towards in-game mechanics. That was one of the best, if not the best at all, regarding narrative composition.
Love your videos, keep it coming Steve! 😁
30:55 I was literally terrified of those bugs as a child.
Love these videos mate
Lara so just pulled the same stunt on Werner and Amanda by just leaving them buried, thinking they died XD
Love your videos man!
I never get burned out by Egyptian aesthetic BTW, I didn't have enough of it in TR1... also playing TR2 I thought we need a game ENTIRELY set in Far Eastern temples and we got one (2013 reboot)... that said, you have Khmer style in Ankgor Wat, Hellenic architecture in Alexandria and horror modern city in Cairo in TLR. It's varied enough in that regard, I just wish we got more dress-up for each level like in 2 or 3 or 5.
24:45 THAT TRANSITION WAS SO SMOOTH 😂😂😂
Your effort in the videos is incredible. You can be my idol for the videos I can make in the future.
I think you have what it takes to become one of the best you've definitely earned a subscriber with this.
Von Croy: Walk
Kid Lara: Nough
Fockin legendary rebel moment.
30:54 Death Beetles! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel like I remember the side to side swimming in TRII at least, if you held down the walk button while above water and swimming to the side.
I applaud all the work the developers did to distinguish the levels within the one setting, but I personally couldn’t wait to get out of Egypt unfortunately. Not to say the game doesn’t have tons to offer, but I was ready for a fresh setting as they had done with previous games. It was part of the charm, looking forward to what would come next.
All the wait, and I can tell you are really stepping up your game! Keep it up-I want to see you be right up with the likes of The Act Man, and ScottTheWozz! Keep it up, and never give in! :)
I'll certainly try Mr Gex!! 😅
This Tomb Raider is one of the best in the entire series. It does the best job at portraying the essence of who Lara Croft actually is as a character.
If you think about it, Lara taking the amulet without reading and take it's warning seriously, mirrors what happened to Von Croy in Cambodia.
Not sure if Core Design had planned this or not, but from Lara taking the amulet combined with the ending of the game mirror what happened to Von Croy. The only difference would be we eventually find out that Von Croy actually organised a dig to try and find Lara, where we have to believe that Lara's family did the same thing or were not apart or the rescue attempt to try and save Von Croy.
Core often had that bookend style, remember how TR2 starts you have Lara's Home then Great Wall near Temple of Xian and ends in same Chinese temple then Home Sweet Home, it's a perfect mirror in some other aspects too. With the knife and dragon. So makes sense they'd do the same in TLR. In fact, one thing about their writing is how they repeat the same tropes, like body horror since TR1 Atlantis, overall spooky vibes not USUALLY associated with Action Adventure genre, and every main boss in first FOUR games doing a sort of self-sacrifice only to reappear as some monstrous abomination.
Another great review Steve 👌
Thanks dude! 😊😊
My favorite in the series, loved how creepy it was
I love all of your tomb raider reviews
Thank you so much ☺️
Tomb Raider, Hellraiser music, nice puns.. lol. Great channel!!
Boy that frickn bull scared the shit out of me when I was a kid!
Awesome video as always!
Coming back to watch this again, the effect used with the extracting/retracting spikes may very well be some type of Shrink modifier on the spike mesh.
Great stuff
Nice review mate
Steve I just realized your Channel has only 15k Abos. I'm baffled. Thought you were one of those 1 million sub channels. Never checked your subs. Insane Content. I love your Tomb Raider Videos!
Fun thing is to watch the scene where Von Croy escapes on the Helicopter, seated on a very awkward manner (34:09), i noticed it in the good old times while playing in the playstation and until this day i cannot unsee.
Loved this game along with TR 1 2 and 3. The puzzles in it were tough but rewarding, the music, visuals for the time, atsomspere, locations, core gameplay, and storyline were really solid minus no laras home and some frustrating sections but o erall great game. Very nice reviews by the way really enjoyed them.
I am absolutely in love with your videos
Don't know why I didn't get notified of this but here I am now. Great video M8.
Sounds like TH-cam being standard TH-cam haha Glad you enjoyed the video 👌🙂
Been watching all of these, these are really nice vids, LOVE Lara Croft. You've earned a subscriber. :)
Thank you! Happy to have you 😊😊
