Only for the mansion, it could be a cat or a dog, I mean, if she had a dog, it could sometimes follow Lara and if Lara stays upatairs for a certain amount of time then the pet pines for it's owner because it's not allowed upstairs, anyway, what do you think of the idea of Lara having a pet?

Her mansion is big enough for a Tiger ;)

I see you're back, Phlip. I'd have to say no. I don't want any annoying animals bothering me when I'm adventuring around the manor/mansion. Besides, do you really think Lara has enough time for such things? I certainly don't.

Her mansion is big enough for a Tiger ;)

That might be more her style.

Phlip

The butler could look after it, but it'd only follow you SOMETIMES, so it does it's own thing most of the time.

And it's good to be back after a three week ban, yes! three weeks.

Phlip ! I missed you ! Glad to see you back ! :hug:

To answer you, I don't want to see Lara with pets. I'm not interested by this, and she's already got a Winston, a Zip and a Alister, I think that's enough ! :D

it's juat a little friend for Lara when she goes home, nothing too big.:)

I suppose she could have a little cat running around in the house.
A dog would be too needy, though.

An Alaskan Husky - I've named him Horus...

However, I'd like him to accompany Lara in one or two levels to add variety. She could use him as a tool as she would a crowbar/forklift to retrieve items and disable enemies.

:wve:

Hmm... putting a Makaka monkey (TR3) in her house would be fun; like showing some stuff from classic tr games XD

Angel_14
08-03-07, 16:17
She already has two monkies at home. They are called Zip and Alister ;)
But serously... Lara doesn't need a pet. I can't imagine her playing with a dog or bringing it to her mission.

nice picture, but I'd only want a dog for Lara strictly for her house, just to play with and throw a ball to make it fetch or something.

08-03-07, 16:20
Oh god... What's all this with the animals?? First Lara riding a horse, than Lara having a doggie, who she can play with? That's what "The Sims: Pets" game is for :ton:

Tomb Raider is not a Sims game Phlip, you want to play with simulated pets there are plenty of games that have that sort of thing.

Phlip

it's just an idea people!

She could have her private zoo.

And a tamed T-Rex running around in the gardens...but of course, nothing can stop you from shooting it :p

walk_man
08-03-07, 16:51
Hmmm. A pet ? In TR ? Lara would not have time to have a pet so there would not be one. So knowing that, its hard to imagine a cat, dog or a tiger even walking around the house.

Naz2000
08-03-07, 17:44
Well if it followed lara the way the dogs followed her in legend i would probably have to shoot it!

Genocide
08-03-07, 17:47
I can acctually see Lara with a big dog like a German Shepard
Even with Winston, and the Chuckle brothers in the house, she must get pretty lonely...even more so with the fact nobody likes Zip & allistair and want them gone, and do not want Lara to have any love life what-so-ever, i acctually feel sorry for the poor girl-you people just aint happy
Lonely is good for tomb raiding, not for living with

Simon from the TR movie could be her pet! :D

No but seriously, she doesn't need a pet. Zip and Alister is enough.

Of course it is! Particularly a canine companion... all toff birds own an expensive breed of dog, not to mention a horse or three.

EDIT - See my previous post. Horus the Alaskan Husky will make it into TR8 I reckons.

Lara had a lion puppy in the Witchblade comics. That would be the perfect pet for Lara.

08-03-07, 19:54
I'd want her to have a pet but not if it follows her around constantly.

da tomb raider!
08-03-07, 19:58
A pet? Yeah, why not? How about a nice dog? After all, I hear Barbie has a cute puppy herself. :rolleyes:

Seriously, no way. I think we already had enough pointless features in Legend, so let's not have them in future Tomb Raider games, huh? Winston was pretty pointless in Tomb Raider 2 and 3 (And even more pointless in Legend; he just stood there doing completely nothing. :confused: ), so why have something else just as pointless which follows you around as well. And personally I can't imagine Lara Croft riding a horse, and if I want to ride a horse, I can do it myself or buy a horse-riding game. I don't want to do it in a Tomb Raider game.

This topic is opened on today but over 30 replies...
It's meaning... Interesting subject or popular ID poster.
Firstly, I don't really know why they feeling so annoying
about Mr. Wang's escorting(?) in TR_02, 03 at Lara's home?
I'd really ask about this point to them. Why?

Almost ppl... over 90% feeling annoying about it. But I don't feel like that!!!
That's very Funny... Mr. Wang's walking(=abvoe pic) speed was fair.
Not fast, Not slow... That's mean... You can run-away from him enough.
Rather sometime I waited him. He can't come into under-ground room and
chimney area... etc. So I'd like to ask like this.


(1)You want any moving objects at Lara's home?
(2)If it move... Human-being? or animal? escorting or not?
(3)If not, you want nothing to see at Lara's home?
(4)You can shoot to them like TR_03. so you agree?


In fact, this Lara's (moving) dog at her home is originally my IDEA (http://www.tombraiderforums.com/showpost.php?p=1554937&postcount=58)!!!
But anyway welcome to discuss about it by other guy in this forum.

Her mansion is big enough for a Tiger ;)

Comng back from Avalon, she brings back a saber tooth tiger...which hunted in pack and are probably mentally more like dogs: they can be tamed.

I see it now, smooth as mercury, ripling with muscles like a Cape lion and affectionate, playfull but restrained (they could weight in at around 600 pounds + and hunter buffalos at full run) since it knows Lara is the alpha ...er...female.

It's true that if we continue to ad thing like that (outfit, animal etc.) it will turn like the Sims !

But I would like a -Lara Croft Style- animal like a tiger or a wolf, but not a cheesy cat ...

Don't forget that at first Lara Croft was suppose to be a killer ! And if we continue to ad emotion, Lara crying, barbie Lara... It will not be Tomb Raider... I think we can mix the 2, sometime Lara can be so angry and dangerous and other time she can be funny ! :D

nia1989
12-03-07, 16:15
wwweeeell yes, and no. firstly- in a non-following way it would be good to see animals in the tr mansion. maybe a big fish tank like in tr3, or maybe a terarrium with some reptiles- or a really giant greenhouse with all kind of exotic birds and reptiles... lots of reptiles :cln: something like that would add a nice detail. i liked the giant fish tank in tr3:p

on the "no" side of it, is the kind of idea the comic had... lara doesnt need animals to do work for her (that comic pic was nice but really cheesy!), i like to think she prefers to do her own thing... and besides, she shoots many animals in tr games so its clear she's not an "animal lover". she wouldnt keep a pet as a companion, i dont think.

oh and tr will NEVER be like the sims =) but i think more add-on things will start appearing, which is fine because if you want you can just ignore them and get on with the game (like outfits- they werent essential but theyre something there once youve finished the game)

all these people complaining about things they dont have to use!!

I loved her giant fish tank in TR3 :D I wouldn't mind a few animals around the Croft estate (just dogs, birds, fish, cats etc. Horses may be going a bit too far and distract from the purpose of the game).
No pets on the actual adventure though. Firstly, it'd seem wierd if Lara was shooting other animals whilst being assisted on the trip by Rex the wonder pup. And I don't want the game to stop having animal enemies. The pet may easily become a liability and get in serious danger. It's just a little strange. I'd sooner have a human helper (like in TR4) for a small part of the game, than an animal. Or maybe Lara gets a tiny, little bit of animal help in the game, like in RE4 when Leon is assisted by that dog against El Gigante. :)

Just like a cat that sits on a windowsill, or a dog that you can play with outside. That would be fun to practice some kind of skill by playing with a dog outside :tea:

Because otherwise it would end up like My Pony (http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/myponystables/index.html) :mad:

OMG! :vlol: that's hilarious!

A dog or something in her mansion? I'm not totally for it, but not really against it either.

In the actual game, though, no thanks. Dependents like kids and animals and other characters that you have to look out for in games and movies really stress me out.

No pets in Lara's mansion, and unZipping there is also a good idea.
A farting Winston, that's a cool pet.

why would lara need a pet she's barely at her house. so she wouldn't be taking care of it winston probably would be. and what kind of pet a dog, cat, bird, or maybe even a fish. yea i don't think so that would be a waste to have pets in lara's mansion. so i say no pets. ;)

I would like her to have an Eagle. XD

I'm dead serious, let the eagle fly through the area to check it out (you can see through the eagle eyes of course, control the bird) so you CAN find possible danger.

Of course, thats up to the player...

And yes, the bird will have to be shot in the middle of the game... makes Lara angry. :jmp:

I rethought on this subject. A pet tiger would be an option for Lara... and me ! I love white tigers.

That's one way to get rid of Zip and Alister... :D

Ditto. Just speaking for all the haters, lol. I like them, as in that Lara is not some sort of weird loner that likes to dig into tombs for her own pleasure... really weird character she'd be...

Exactly. I thought Lara would get lonely travelling around without company.

That 'weird character' was quite popular for 10 years before Zip & Alister came along. ;)

Seems so. Personally I hope someday we'll see the old Lara again, she's just so much stronger and cooler.

A pet? Yeah, why not? How about a nice dog? After all, I hear Barbie has a cute puppy herself. :rolleyes:

Seriously, no way. I think we already had enough pointless features in Legend, so let's not have them in future Tomb Raider games, huh? Winston was pretty pointless in Tomb Raider 2 and 3 (And even more pointless in Legend; he just stood there doing completely nothing. :confused: ), so why have something else just as pointless which follows you around as well. And personally I can't imagine Lara Croft riding a horse, and if I want to ride a horse, I can do it myself or buy a horse-riding game. I don't want to do it in a Tomb Raider game.

Since when are horses just for for barbies?:hea:
In my country (Ireland), riding a horse is an exhilarating past time for anyone who tries it.. very adventurous and fun... isn't that what Lara would like?
Personally I think it's not a good idea for the game 'cos it's a distraction and nothing more but if you can't see Lara riding a horse then you don't know Lara, nor have you ever ridden one (i assume).

So while I'm against the idea of pets in TR people shouldn't mock horse riding in general as the sense of freedom and speed and wind in your hair rivals any adventurous pastime like rock climbing and absailing IMO.
When done right it's not for sissy girls.

To be honest, I rather see Lara having a Porsche as her pet, than an animal. Would be awesome, seeing her drive her black porsche through the hills, escaping from someone that is after the artifact she just found...

*Lara runs out of the tomb with the artifact in her hands*
"Zip, you got my pet ready?"
"Ah Lara! Yes, I polished her for ya. She's waiting next to the entrance."
"Perfect."
*Lara jumps in the car, puts the artifact on the chair next to her and starts the engine. Looks at the artifact.*
"I hope you sit nice and comfy, you're in for a rough ride. I hope..."

Porsche? Not at all, anything sleek is not her style imo. In urban settings, at best. In the wilderness I'd rather see her stow away on a rickety old school goods-train happening to pass by. Improvising over accessorising, I say.

As for pets - horse-riding over a short distance would be great for me.

Lara needs a falcon or an eagle, so that it can her peck the enemies eyes out for her and than she can go trigger-happy.

Lara is hardly ever in her home, and it's not fair for Winston to clean up and look after Lara's pet.

Plus it's a stupid idea anyway.
