I beat TR1 for the first time!
I was shocked how scary it was. I think most of the millions of people who bought the game never beat it. I think if they did the game would be remembered differently.
I don’t like scary/horror at all so I had a tough time. My rose color glasses of my childhood perspective of the game has shifted. I think it mostly comes with the fact that the game’s audio is so sparse that when a monster spawns it’s jarring.
I hear the other games are less horror more action? I have a feeling I’ll enjoy the other games more. So far I’ve noticed TR2 Mansion is basically just footstep sound effects and feels as creepy. Anyway, I’m a big fan of the character and series, but I’m happy to finally truly play these games as an adult.
