I hated Tomb Raider II compared to the first game. You went from actually raiding tombs in these long, atmospheric areas with an incredible sense of isolation to jumping around in a city or an oil rig. Lara kills 4 people in the original game, and only because she is forced to. In TRII she is a psychopath who literally kills hundreds of people over the course of the game. They fucked up the combat by stuffing every level with a million guys with hitscanning guns, and the shift from only being able to save at save crystal spots vs being able to save anywhere (while very nice) meant that they crammed in a bunch of instant-death traps into each level.

I liked the idea of a dagger that turns you into a dragon if you stab yourself in the heart though, plus pic related is a fun cutscene.
