I believe the new Tomb Raider will be bad. First Uncharted copied and dumbed down Tomb Raider to make a Hollywood-like cinematic game easy for the masses, now Tomb Raider has to become even more cinematic and simplified to compete with Uncharted.

Tomb Raider Underworld wasn't a great game but its gameplay mechanics were old-school and hardcore with difficult jumping and puzzles, unlike Uncharted.

I thought they were going in the opposite direction. I remember reading somewhere this one was going to be open-world.

I actually quite enjoyed Underworld too. Only the camera angles annoyed me slightly.

Yeah, some open world-ish elements I believe they have promised (which I am very happy for). But open world can still be made with lots of hand-holding and guiding, if they want to, to make the game "more accessible".

I didn't mean that Tomb Raider Underworld was a mediocre game when I said "not great". It was a good, solid game, no doubt. The typical Tomb Raider gameplay mechanics were great and the environments were nice. It just wasn't memorable to me, so that's why it's not in the "great" category.
