  Another thing I noticed while watching a first-time player. They crash the boat into every wall in Venice, so when they get out to shoot a guy, their health is already half gone 😩

  TR2 is the first one I ever played as a kid. It got to the point I had The Great Wall down to muscle memory...and still do all these years later 😂

  Players that already played <b>TR1</b> have an easier time with the first level of <b>TR2</b> 💃 <br>I can only imagine how frustrating <b>TR2</b> would be if it was your introduction to <b>Lara&apos;s</b> <b>adventures</b> &nbsp;🐲

  Cool :p<br>Regardless of the presence of enemies, if Lara has her guns out, the camera <b>never</b> shifts to another view than the &quot;normal&quot; one, always ready to fight. It can also be used, you know, when you activate a lever and the camera shows what&apos;s been triggered in another room, and you want the camera back immediately, by just drawing your weapons you&apos;re ready to go, again, regardless of enemies

  Thank you for this great video! My first attempts at Tomb Raider were with TR1, but I was really excited when a friend lent me TR2. He had told me how difficult the first level was, so I was genuinely surprised when I managed to complete it on my very first try — pure beginner’s luck!<br><br>To this day, I still love the Venice section. In TR1, I had only ever reached the second level, so it felt incredibly satisfying to actually make progress and complete levels in this game. My friend did give me a few tips, though — for example, that in the room with the chandeliers you have to climb up beneath the roof.

  The confusion with vehicles is understandable, but I&apos;ve read the manual for my PC version, bought way back in 97... So there&apos;s that.<br><br>As for the secrets, the pattern I&apos;ve noticed is:<br><br>The Stone (always thought it was silver, tbh), normally is the easiest, or most visible.<br><br>The Jade is the one that requires most skill and precision, hence it being the most difficult to get.<br><br>But for some, the Gold one is the hardest, as it is the one that generally requires the most exploring.

  As someone who has played this game countless times and has watched numerous playthroughs of other people playing it for the first time I can +1 basically every observation you made here. Good work
