The saddest thing is Tomb Raider games never really required smart AI because they were revolving around puzzles and exploration.WOW, that's some really dumb and blind AI .

What sign? I'm fan of the series I just don't like where it's heading.
I think you answered your own question there.
The sign is even die hard TR fans are seeing the obvious flaws in what they're showing. Couldn't be any more clear than that. In case you misinterpreted it though, I meant not a good sign of where the game is heading.
When the last one's willing to give updates on the progress are crying foul, it starts feeling like the devs are giving a stage demo with only a few people in the room, and a silence falls when they ask, "Any questions"?
Cue the face palms. Or those few people could say, "Look around, can't you see you're losing interest even from your own fanbase"?
I think this will be the title that determines whether the bow/axe/cinematic reboot direction they've gone was a good idea. Until now it's been skating on first impressions and a dynamic change with new graphics, but we'll now see if their shallow gameplay will hold up.
That would be awesome because long kinematics/shooting bad guys formula is getting really old.I feel eventually they're going to have to go back to the original formula of cerebral challenges, vs this window dressing that gets old real fast. You really can't mess with tradition too much without things falling apart.

Personally I thought Tomb Raider was going in the right direction with Tomb Raider Legend, Anniversary, and Underworld. I still play those and enjoy the hell out of them.
TR 2013,.....went away from that...

Actually despite Underworld having MUCH better puzzles than the 2013 game, it was the first title where we saw a serious decline in cerebral puzzles. Most collectibles were just scattered in transitional areas in clay pots, and you merely had to kick them open to get the contents. There were no elaborate rooms hiding relics with timed apparatuses and death traps.
I'm not entirely convinced they just wanted a broader audience. There are indications they also got lazy and suffered some stagnation in the creative department.
