This game revels in its own beauty, but the plot collapses under the slightest scrutiny. The narrative is an incoherent mess that goes well beyond the usual action movie/video game suspension of disbelief how are all of Laras guns still fully-functional after spending an hour diving through an underwater tomb? and shreds your investment in whats actually going on in the game. The plot makes little sense, basic character motivations are entirely absent, and Lara uncritically takes on random busywork for practically everyone she meets.
