Default Toned Arms

I was watching this Shadow gameplay clip:
https://youtu.be/kTkoL4ovP64

I’ve noticing how toned Lara’s arms have become. As I posted there, it’s little things like these that emphasize how much care & thought went into the game’s development. Same with HZD’s Aloy. 12 years of bowstring drawing & rock climbing WILL beef up your arms and it shows. Her arms are quite toned. Same thing with Lara. After all this time drawing bowstrings & platforming, you’d expect her arms to get toned up, and they have.

That was the thing i didn't like with classic and LAU Lara! I want muscles for a strong female character.

I am SOO GLAD they made it happen! Now i love her even more.

With Alicia Vikander and now in game Lara Croft, I have to say that I really like those really toned arms. It only makes sense for Lara to have them and they look hella nice!

Yep. The cinematic near the end really shows it. Her arms look very well toned. She looks extremely fit.

But they did have muscles, Classic Lara had Abs (and most ps1 characters either had no noticable muscle or a cartoonish amount, and LAU had muscles on her arms slightly.

Yes, classic Lara did have muscles, but the same thing is only true for TRU Lara from LAU.

I would go so far and call her buff, but she's getting there. This girl (with the braid) is buff. I actually wouldn't mind if they buffed Lara up some more. It doesn't go with Camilla's voice tho.

LUA had nay muscles and those abs idk you don't really see them while playing unless you intend to as much as i can remember... These are different. No matter what she always looked clumsy.
