Tomb Raider can get hellish in later levels - there is a lot of switch using and moving sections and such in the later levels that requires a lot of trial and error to figure out. There is even a secret in the last level that you nearly have to luck into if you do not know it is there.

It is a rewarding game if you can get past those things though. There is a real sense of accomplishment to it. The remake just takes into account much better game design ideas while keeping that good feeling when playing.
