Rise of the Tomb Raider

So, decided to get serious and load this up after it's been sitting on my HD for months now. Game is gorgeous, but seems a bit on the easy side.

I've breezed through the first 2-3 hours and am now at the Russin train yard. Thinking of upping the difficulty to max as it's not all that enjoyable at this point.

It feels more like a walking/spelunking/explore abandoned buildings simulator at this point than anything.

I would definitely, especially if you're a veteran of the previous TR. 

That was one of the finer points i enjoyed. That controls, upgrades, etc. all felt and worked exactly like the last, it was all very familiar and almost second nature, just with nicer eye-candy and a more diverse color palette. The first was very drab i thought, but, this, wow. it's vibrant for sure and really, REALLY sets the mood. You'll enjoy for sure, just crank up the difficulty.

I liked the last one a lot and enjoyed this one for the most part, but for some reason it started to feel like a chore to complete towards the end. Maybe it was the difficulty not being challenging enough to keep my interest but I don't know. It's definitely a better game than the last on paper (better graphics, more developed mechanics) but overall it didn't seem to live up to my fond memories of the last one.

I do wish they'd take map icons/points of interest out such as where to find a document, relic, mural, etc. Too much hand-holding, It's as hard as hilighting the icon on your map and then pressing RB in-game to see the path/location of said icon. I wanna find stuff on my own, you know?;)
