Crystal Dynamics have a nearly perfect Lara Croft blueprint for Tomb Raider 12 thanks to Netflix’s Survivor and Legend characteristics.
The animated Netflix series is a sequel to Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Also, Netflix distributed this show, the company uses external production companies for most of its content. The show doesn’t provide a template for Crystal Dynamics [who was credited in production of the show], the Lara in the show is the one from the 2013 reboot series, and wasn’t reimagined for the show.
A perfect buleprint to be considered for awards you mean. Yeah, this will pander perfectly.
"To continue to be involved or to be involved in another way with [Lara Croft] would be an absolute dream and also a responsibility I would take seriously given how beloved and known she is…" the Marvel star tells GamesRadar+.
live-action Atwell? ... during early 2010s she would've nailed it ... but now ... dunno man
The series is an abomination, and if she had anything about her, having read the script..... she should of declined.
The most sickening part of all of this is not even that the IP is getting gutted not to be inclusive, it’s ONLY done so to be considered for awards and a funding for the next project. That’s it. It’s as pointless as a fortune 500 company virtue signaling during pride month. The bottom line is they will do the compliance dance and shell out anything to continue the cash flow, Just like the willing this VO actress people are fanning up to ^.
Also, who give a 7uck what the voice actress thinks or what she’s doing? This site is about games., not voice actors day dreams.
The arrival of new Tomb Raider merchandise has offered a closer look at the updated Lara Croft character design.
Im going to miss the new lara croft design, i hope they don't change that much from the last game.
Man… her face gives me the heeby jeebies. I hope she looks better in game.
To be honest, the e3 footage looked extremely linear and super fast paced - things this series has never been about.
"... it's also entirely possible that this game could be the most intense horror experience of all time." Duly noted. Anything is possible. But I believe this to not only be a stretch, but also extremely unlikely.
wow hit the nail on the head, its goreporn that was missing from previous installments of tomb raider.
Stuff the gameplay and story and just have tomb raider porn.
In all seriouness this scene isn't that long and it doesn't make the tomb raider game its just an accurate representation of what would happen and yet all these articles are either bashing it or saying YES this is what was missing.
"and turning her into a mewing innocent girl who will be subjected to all kinds of horrors that she, without the protection of the big masculine hero with the game controller and bottle of mountain dew at hand, will quickly perish."
lol wut? This Tomb Raider is a story about survival. This Lara is by no means a weak character. I'm quite sure if the character was a guy, these types of articles wouldn't be popping up. I'll go ahead and suggest that this article is sexist ;)
"Goreporn?" Shit like this makes me not even want to be a Tomb Raider fan.
The word 'Goreporn' is misleading and misused because its misleading and can be misunderstood thus easy misuse is possible.
Pretty sure the word doesnt exist in any normal dictionary. Not very creatively put either. Might just appeal to the basic shock and awe lovers.
