Also, apparently I finished with the Maria Doria and now have entered Tibet.

Vork, I think I notice a recurring theme in the second Tomb Raider for traveling from location to location. To get to 40 fathoms you hitched a ride on a submarine only to have it crash near the location of the treasure you are seeking. To get to Tibetan Foothills you hitched a ride on a biplane only to have it crash (nearby the treasure most likely, can't imagine it is too long a hike for Lara). Apparently they wanted more interesting FMVs, so they made the cutscenes more actiony like they did with the gameplay.

Still love TR2 to TR1. Also, I have found quite a good deal of the secrets in TR2 meaning either they aren't hid too well, or I have been trained to hunt from playing TR3 for years as a child on India and Nevada. South Pacific I tried one time and got pretty far (I think the boss fight). London was the route I ended up getting stuck on completely. Will be interesting to see how I do on both after playing Tomb Raider a lot more, plus years of experience and logical thinking since my childhood.

Speaking specifically about the Deck, that was one confusing level. I found the secrets before I could find the way forward (That ledge by the Jade Dragon was probably the most confusing for me, I didn't realise the platform raised and tried to make the jump from the lower side. This was after looking for a switch on each platform and circling the area for about a hour or more. I may be good at finding secrets but I am not a fast player at all.)
