25:25 modern controls make Lara kick off a bit earlier than she used to so the precise one-hop running jump isn't as easy. One small tip for future, the button you use to grab ledges: the earlier you press it, the shorter the jump. But the earlier you press it, the less chances Lara has to bump her head on the ceiling. It will be relevant in TR3 in a few spots. Also to make sure you have the longest jump possible, hold down the slow-walk button and walk all the way to the edge. She won't fall, but will have shorter running start. It's nothing major just a small tip for more effective jumping.
@@Imcoming4_u the classic controls are slow and not made for analog, but modern ones were done poorly and she slides around too much. We pick our poison!
34:30 this looks like Seraph figurine you picked up on the ship, no? The entire reason for conflict between the Bartoli clan and the Barkhang monks, why the ship was blown up by Chen's father, remember the dying monk that told you the story? Honestly, it took me until remaster to finally figure out what happened.
@@Imcoming4_u Well, Lara are bringing them back the Seraph to get the Talion, the thing that looks like a nuclear rod, used to open the temple at the very start.
There's exactly two places with water IN TOTAL after this in the game, and only one has actual fish to fight, the other has NO enemies, but you can cheese melee enemies by not getting out of the pool and peppering them with harpoons while swimming on the surface, again, just in one spot. But early on with New Game+ you don't even get enough harpoons to kill all sharks (enough on normal game but on NG+ they get like double health).
@@NEC234 No no no, fish in Xian temple are ambushing you around the corner near a lever, the closest shore is far away and in the spider cave, harpoon is way easier to use, and of course shooting yetis from the water is safer since they can't grab you to the point I see it as an exploit.

Thanks I’ll try and remember that. Sometimes the controls are a bit wonky .

@@KasumiRINA I forget why I’m doing things in real life too. 😂

46:45 Yeah that has got to be the devs trolling 😁All that for some measly harpoons. AFTER the water levels even.
@@NEC234 100% ! too funny

LMAO got to that part in the video, THE hardest block puzzle in the game, and all for a pack of now basically useless harpoons. xD
@@KasumiRINA Yeah it's ridiculous. But I do think both these areas have fish ;) Anyways, it's better to kill these from the shore as always.
