What’s wrong with her? I’m a fan. Haven’t played the new one yet.

I just prefer the characterization of the old Lara Croft, she had way more going on, this new Croft is a generic wet blanket with only one character trait, she's determined. plus these new Tomb Raider games aren't really Tomb Raider games, they're just Uncharted mixed with a Ubisoft collect-a-thon, and i can't stand either of those lol

I just want the twin longslides back man.

naw dawg, it's all about women with bows and arrows these days, no infinite ammo double pistols for u

I wasnt really a fan of the old one either. Although locking the old man in the freezer was fun.

Eh, the rebooted Tomb Raider trilogy is miles better than the old Tomb Raider games, and I am looking forward to picking up SotTR today. Though it is a little cringey hearing Lara moan in pain all the time haha.

Sadly, emulating Uncharted has been the best thing for the Tomb Raider series in a long time.

Original Croft, best Croft.

As someone who has beat the game, this is the most Tomb Raider game in years and get this... Lara... smiles...

I will say that tank controls were concentrated cancer. I know "the world is mine" attitude and the asscutters arent coming back. All I want are the twin longslides. I can have those back can I?

I think the new ones are consistently solid , somehow overlooked by a lot of people which kinda makes me compare it doa in that sense

I missed the old Lara too. To me it just seems like they are trying to prove a certain "point" when they remade her. Like you said, she pretty much came off as generic.

I love the way the new Lara looks but I find her personality hard to like and just not very interesting.

She didn't develop at all since the first game.

Lara Croft is fine as a character; I find that the issue is that the supporting cast she works with is so weak so she doesn't get a whole lot to play off of. Nathan Drake on the other hand gets much more interesting characters with Elena, Sully, Chloe and Sam (to name a few) to play off of. Though honestly, Lara's mostly just an avatar for the adventure.

I think the reboot was necessary, but I'm not sure where the character, as far as personality and arc, is going. It's like she keeps leaving a trail of mayhem and destruction wherever she goes and doesn't really give a shit? I don't know. I like her, but I think she's a little disillusioned by her desire to save the world or whatever.
