Lara is a vaguely established character in other games, and for this reboot we were told that this game would redefine her. But did it really?
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.
the game is fantastic. it was a big surprise how good it is like the first Batman AA.
the big out of place issue is how a nerd girl becomes Rambo+Batman all of a sudden.
Tomb Raider[2013] lacked what made the original games special in my opinion
What. Just because it puts her in a situation which can't be readily repeated?
That is to say by the 3rd time she's struggling to survive while killing psychos intent on killing her and a diversified group of friends who've all gotten separated, it will have all gotten stale by the 2nd game.
I loved this game, and while its a different approach to the old Tomb Raiders, It certainly can lead Lara Croft into a badass character in latter titles. I would say this is a much better reboot to that of what DmC was as a reboot.
I don't think it failed, I thought it was the best Tomb Raider ever, the story certainly was tops. I think perhaps they had unrealistic launch expectations, but I'm sure by the time the years up the game will have sold really well.
I remember how I felt when I played the first Tomb Raider on PS1, I had a similar feeling with this one, I didn't want to stop playing, and I did something I rarely do, which is continue playing a game after the main story is complete.
