SR1 was nowhere near as bad as Tomb Raider. The combat was a bit boring and the puzzles were repetitive, but the platforming was significantly more viable than Tomb Raider.

I mean, I haven’t touched either game in over two decades, and I only briefly played Tomb Raider versus the hundreds of hours I spent in all the Legacy of Kain games, and I frequently watch cutscene “movies” of the LoK titles, but I’m sure that hasn’t created a bias in me whatsoever.
