One Tomb Raider fan who managed to complete Shadow of the Tomb Raider before it was patched was treated to a largely different ending than what developers Eidos Montreal intended. To prove that he isn't a troll and liar, Tomb Raider forum user Tombstone has uploaded the alternate ending in full. Ironically, the patched-out ending is said by some to be better than the "official" one, in that it actually ties in with the original 1996 Tomb Raider. Since Wednesday, Shadow of the Tomb Raider's most hardcore fans have been abuzz about why the game would have two endings and why one would have been patched out just as the game launched. As is often the case with modern video games, Shadow launched with patches ready to be installed. Notes for those patches mention things like "added photographer mode" and "improvement and optimization on Lara's hair," but they don't mention anything about the ending being changed.
