Just Completed TR: Legend (Again) after Almost 20 Years from When I First Played It! 🥳💖

Hey! So, yeah! I finally did it (again)! I finished TR: Legend for the second time in almost 20 years! 🥳🥳

I first played this game with my cousin, who was sleeping over, during a summer break. Good times! 👌

I think I was in Year 8 in middle school or Year 9 in high school when we first played it and we managed to finish the game in like 3-4 days. I do remember having a blast playing it back then, and I can say that the second time around is no different! 🥳🙌

Based on my second play of TR: Legend, I feel I can say that TR: Legend (along with the rest of the LAU games) understood the assignment: provide an engaging story with fabulous characters, several tombs to explore, and build up excitement for what comes next! It's simply an amazing game! The entire Legend Trilogy is just super awesome and it's my favorite era of TR (so far)! 😍🤩😉👍

As for the technical side of things, the OG graphics still hold up! TR: Legend is still a beautiful game! 😍🤩 Now, even though the GOG version might've fixed most bugs here and there, there are still some lingering (graphical) issues, specifically with the Next-Gen content. I've had several random crashes, in Kazakhstan and I believe in England or Nepal - forgot which. There was no point in keeping it on, so I did turn it off eventually, which is a shame. 🙈

This is why people keep asking for a PROPER remaster of the Legend (LAU) Trilogy! 🙌

Anyway, TR: Anniversary is next! Looking forward to it! Stay tuned and hope you'll enjoy the curated TR: Legend gallery above! 😉👍

For Anyone Interested in Creating Custom Neighborhood Terrains for The Sims 2 using SimCity 4...

Hello! Just wanted to let everyone here know that SimCity 4, which is the game you can use to create custom neighborhood terrains for The Sims 2 (.sc4 files), is heavily discounted right now on GOG. (You can also get SC4 along with SC 3000 and SC 2000 as part of a bundle, if you're interested in those as well.)

I only found this out because someone else in the GOG sub shared an entire schedule/timeline of discounts over the past few years for SC4: https://www.reddit.com/r/gog/comments/1ta14bn/patience_paid_off_boys/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

And I didn't even know SC4 was on GOG. Anyway, I just thought I'd share this here in case anyone's interested in creating neighborhoods for The Sims 2 from scratch. 👌 (I myself went ahead and got all three games! 😁)

Happy Simming! 🙌

P.S. Wasn't sure which flair to use so went with the closest thing. 👍

Hello! Just wanted to share this wonderful video that showed up on my feed by CroftCore. They examine the history behind Lara's Home (Classic era) and Croft Manor (Legend Era), both in terms of level design and the in-universe history of each manor. 👍

They also touch upon the tie-in comics, TR: Sacred Artefacts, and how they reference certain events surrounding Croft Manor in the Legend Trilogy. Simply amazing! 👌
