Opera House 15. The Deck 16. Living Quarters 17. 40 Fathoms 18. Temple of Xian It's funny that your favourite is my least favourite! I was excited when I first entered the Temple but as the level was progressing I started to feel a sense of panic ahahaha! I guess it's my least not because it's not interesting but mostly because of its difficulty! It wasn't finishing! After every corner I was expecting to reach the end but no! More struggles, more traps, SPIDERS, go back, pull the lavers, find the keys, come back again....Just thinking of it all makes me feel anxious but in no way I consider it a bad level! It's an extremely challenging one and perhaps at the time when I played it I was not in the mood for such a long journey! I was so glad when it ended. We both have Home Sweet Home at number 9 and Brkhang Monastery at number 2. I had to put Venice at number 1 mostly for the nostalgic reasons. I loved it as a kid and I do still love it now!

@@Darwaxion I agree! It represents 100% what tomb raider is for. It just demonstrates it in the hardest way. I think because TR2 didnt have any tombs or ancient places, Lara had to explore areas outside of the usual, they made this level to match up and give it all back to the fans in one level that had it all to make up for it. As a concept it's definitely my favorite area but as far as gaming goes I had to recognise it as one of the hardest and least enjoyable.

A glaring flaw i've noticed in TR games is that after the tightly-designed and engaging get-go, the middle section devolves into a thinly-streched, unfun fillerfest, before transitioning back to a climactic finale. This is principally transparent in TR2. China, Venice and Tibet are magnificent, but the oil rig and the underwater segments are god-awful. I'd hope to revisit these environments someday, albeit executed so that it does not make me desire to rip my hair out. In general, the new locations were compelling and great. However, the stages are littered with bad level design, such as forced damage, or Lara shoving her hear into a saw as opposed to carefully picking it up. Due to these, and the overabundance of enemies, I enjoyed this instalment the least out of the original trilogy, even though I would rank it very high. With that stated, I think my favorite is Floating Islands, its aesthetic is gorgeous. In fact, all of the China levels are top-tier. Tibet was exquisite. I love that it brought back some of the isolated feeling from Tr1, and its mechanics were nice. Venice was also spectacular, I enjoyed it. But the oil rig and the underwater bits were absolutely atrocious. Nice video 💜❤️

And there's Tomb Raider 2, the fan fave game which I have mixed feelings on. To sum it up in easy words: I dislike the first half and love the second. The first level I love is The Deck with it's weird and unique atmosphere, it doesn't get boring in both challenge and speed runs. My favourites overall are Deck, Barkhang, Ice Palace and Floating Islands I'd say. However, there's one level I HATE with a passion, and that is Wreck of the Maria Doria. In casual, it was 40 Fathoms, but it quickly shifted to that monster. 25 minutes of pushing and pulling blocks with much forced damage, only to get killed by a shark camping in front of the secret is one of the most frustating experiences I've ever had with Tomb Raider. Only TR 5's Red Alert can come close to that. I need to mention the Tomb Raider 2 Gold here, which is superior in every way to the main game, especially Furnace of the Gods and Kingdom are highlights of the whole franchise for me! Have you played them? So, next up is my fave TR game of all time and I feel it's gonna be controversial, hehe. :D Great video!

I found the average TR2 level to be a step below TR1. Offshore rig to The Deck was a fairly weak stretch of the game, and even the levels towards the middle of my ranking would absolutely stack below TR1s middle tier levels. Regardless, here are my thoughts 17. 40 Fathoms (thrilling and iconic opening, but rest of the level is a confusing drag. Not a good sign when a fairly short level feels like a drag) 16. Diving Area (Less of a drag overall than 40 fathoms, but the combat was generally a bit much, and lacked any good platforming. Dull environment too) 15. The Dragon's Lair (Looks good, and the boss was fun, but really nothing else going for it) 14. Living Quarters (Piston room was cool, but it's generally very forgettable. Game would have been better paced without it) 13. The Deck (Would have been a good deal higher, but figuring out where to go and the ridiculous amount of backtracking if you make a wrong turn knocks it right down) 12. Offshore Rig (Dull environment and wastes the no-weapons feature, but aside from that, a good mix of everything, and the level is well structured) 11. Home Sweet Home (Hard for levels this short to stack up against full length levels, but the remnants of the cult rushing Lara's mansion as a last ditch attempt to get the dagger was genius idea that was executed very well) 10. Catacombs of The Talion (Solid all round, and the yeti room was delightfully spooky) 9. Ice Palace (Catacombs part 2, just slightly better) 8. Bartoli's Hideout (All round very good level, chandelier room was great, but aside from that, nothing that stands out too much) 7. Opera House (Like with you, it really grew on me. Love the atmosphere, even if it was a rather confusing level to navigate, but far less annoying than The Deck) 6. The Great Wall (A far more thrilling opening compared to TR1, and has one of the coolest secret areas. Only held back by its short length) 5. Wreck of The Maria Doria (Feels like a marathon, but the upside down 'feature' was a great twist and had a great mix of everything from a gameplay perspective) 4. Tibetan Foothills (An absolute thrill ride of a level, where death by crashing your snow mobile tended to be funny) 3. Venice (Very good opening level, and once you get to the main zone, the entire puzzle unfolds in a rather beautiful way) 2. Barkhang Monastery (A joy to explore and a great mix of everything. Only Lara locking onto the monks when I try to shoot the cult members stops it from reaching perfection, as everything else about this level is just fantastic) 1. Temple of Xian (TR2 is a cut below 1 and 3 as a whole if you ask me, but neither of those games had a level that is on the level of, what I consider, to be the best level in TR history. Might go down as one of my favourite levels in gaming history.) Really enjoying the content on this channel!
