Digital Life

So I bought Tomb Raider on Tuesday.

It's good.

I've actually never played any of the previous games. Yeah, I know. Up until a few years ago aside from Zelda I rarely played anything that wasn't an RPG. No particular reason, most of them just didn't seem to appeal to me. That all changed with Assassin's Creed and since then I've been expanding out more into the action/adventure genre.

So back to the subject at hand here. It's quite fun and while some sections are challenging, I've yet to come across anything rage-quit inducing. Haven't finished out the story yet, currently I'm in Shantytown, right after the helicopter. I decided to go back and do some collecting before I advanced, which I'm almost done with. I dislike the Mountain Village area, it's really annoying to navigate. I've got two GPS caches marked on my map, I can stand on top of where the markers are but...I can't for the life of me actually find the damn things. Grr. Yes I do have the Orienteering skill, which makes things way easier to find but for whatever reason they still aren't showing up. Sigh. I'll probably continue on with the story and then go back again later. I know you can do so after you finish the story, I just like taking a break sometimes, especially when I don't have a lot of time to play.
