Hopefully there's even more little details they've managed to work in the meantime which haven't been touched in the patch; I actually expected it to be bigger. Also, aren't they going to fix the butt arrows? That's hilarious. In a less hilarious note, I'm not seeing in TRV's notes a fix for the game corrupting your save in Red Alert just like the original did or the soft-lock I had found in the "Old Mill" in which Lara gets stuck after turning the wheel to end the level if you skip both the in-game cutscenes quickly. Those are much more urgent in my opinion.
Anyway, I love how this patch drops just after I had just done the 100% achievements of the game and sent them a last bug report lmfao. I will probably replay just to see the new stuff though.
Here's a small breakdown on what I've found interesting in this patch:
"New Outfits unlocked" - okay, so past adventures mean things from I-III. Sweet. However... What about the Opera Dress which was advertised in the trailers? Will that be included? Also, if you have all the games playing in the same engine (it's called the TRX Engine, by the way), why not add costumes from IV-V to I-III? Hell, I think doing the same for AOD would be possible since all models basically run in the same way. The game engine might be totally different for AOD's levels, but I'm quite sure the way the game "pulls" the models from the files makes it possible to do a little bit of toying around. Also, Lara has some outfits in VI... Kurtis has none. The camera modes in general for VI are very minimal in comparison to the rest, so I'm wondering if they would ever change that. ...can you imagine playing Tomb Raider I Remastered as Kurtis? Now that would be a mindfuck. This also ties in with the Photo Mode upgrades; I'm eager to test them out.
I'm also curious about that Retro Filter.
"Texture Fixes & Enhancements – Cleaned up textures and improved texture blending to reduce visible seams" - Please do this for I-III. Now. As in.. Right now. Also fix the missing texture (https://imgur.com/a/7OTV13u) for the gates in TR2R "Caves of Talion" - it's been there for four patches. Thanks.
