The Troubled Development of Tomb Raider

Video Description

Previous title: The Two Sides of Tomb Raider. A look back at the creation of the Tomb Raider franchise, the classic games, the studio behind it and how it all turned into insanity and burned to the ground in the span of a few years. Trying something a bit different leaning more into the documentary style instead of just reviewing the games from a retrospective point of view. Although the chapters of this video are not really divided on a 'per game' basis, some of you may still prefer to watch it that way (or have that reference) so here are the timestamps for each game.
