It really is interesting.
Let’s hope this is just the beginning.

Really ? I agree we should express our feelings about a F2P mobile game but the trailer was stunning, it's sad. :(

Very good !!

You don't have to throw hate to a game you haven't played just because it's not the one you convinced yourself it was gonna be. Stop acting like a brat y'all!

I think it's because people expected a current gen full remake instead of a mobile game. Either way I'm still keeping an eye on this even though I'm a bit dissapointed.

I can totally see her next to Crash and Spyro. Just give her a full fledged game please!!

That a very uhh...realistic chest for Lara Croft.

But yeah cool I guess. The mobile thing is kind of a slap in the face to the poor fans who have been pleading for a morsel of Classic Lara over the last few years.

You may be right. The title should have been more explicit I guess ?
"Tomb Raider Reloaded - New mobile game"

Sure it's 'only' a mobile game, but whatever, it looks cute and it's nice to see Square Enix utilising Classic Lara in some form. Besides, between the WETA statue, the anniversary acknowledgement on social media, that AoD track suddenly becoming available for streaming, this being announced... I do think there's more to come in 2021.

Dual pistols.

Dinosaurs.

Braid.

And they say SE doesn't listen to the fans. Psshh

*Impatiently waits for the game to be released*

Maybe SE does but CD doesn't.
Either way it is definitely not enough since this is a mobile game and the requests fans made were for main games moving forward.

It could really be, remember the 20th anniversary. We had Relic Run and Go before more big stuff like the anniversary content for Rise.
I don't think Rise new content was the ultimate and perfect thing for an anniversary, don't get me wrong but... the same strategy could apply. Little projects before the bigger.
The year hasn't began, a lot could happen. Or maybe nothing. Imagine of this game will be abandoned like Reflections to begin with haha.
I'm not defeatist, 2021 bring it on !

Can we just take a second to appreciate that beautiful throwback of a logo.

The dislikes would still be there because people want more for classic Tomb Raider, not just stuck in a free mobile game. The trailer does look awesome though, but could be misleading. We'll see!

The logo does look great!

Uh-oh, the thought police has arrived. Well, let's not like anything about the game either, since no-one here has played it, after all. We'll all remain 100% neutral until we get our hands on it.

To be fair, I don't think anyone here is "hating" yet, just remaining cautious and/or skeptical, and rightfully so. I also don't think the TR fanbase in general is quite used to the idea of
TR mobile games just yet.

I loved that trailer, the art style is really cute and the sounds, enemies, the Scion... that was all pure nostalgia.

I'm really curious to see more of this, and while I am getting kind of tired of classic Lara only being side lined to small/mobile games whose gameplay is nothing like classic TR, it is still appreciated that they are doing this. I am worried about it being free to play though...

Also, why is everyone assuming this is a TR1 reimagining? Is it just because of the Scion?

Wowh...I'm so glad!!! finally some form of acknowledgement from Square. And it having the iconic classic lara. Just loved how it started with the duals. This makes me think things are being cooked for the 25th anniversary. OMG YASSS. :D

I hope people would ignore if so. I know TRF, some people will say : "such bad publicity, the classic legacy is ruined, no one cares about classics except the fanbase !!"
Hope I'm wrong but I have popcorns by any chance. 🍿

Same thought. As if the duals opening the teaser had a higher purpose.

Oh yes the reboot cultists always use these incredibly weak arguments. Hopefully they are ignored.

Damn I saw the trailer just now and came running here to post about it, and you guys have been discussing it for hours already??? Jeez, I can't keep up xD hahaha

I found it very cute. And I hope the more cartoony style will allow for them to be more creative with how the game plays and Lara herself as a character.
I'm intrigued by the Scion and the end though. Could it be the game will play as some sort of reimagining of TRI? Or maybe the fact there are spiders and a red dinosaur also means the game could be some sort of reprise of TR I, II & III?
I'm curious to see how that'll unfold. I hope the game will also be out for other platforms. I'm not a huge fan of playing on the mobile tbh, but I'm glad to just not see Lara dressed in rags and with a mullet again!

I guess the negative reactions could change if they paste a PS5 / Switch logo in the trailer :p.

What a nice surprise, loved the trailer and all the TR1 references or, wait, this is a remake / reimagination!?

I wonder if they can make a Genshin Impact like strategy and launch the game in both consoles and mobile, that would be great :D.

Comments aren't great, but I'm not surprised either.

I'm obviously not saying to like the game before playing it, just not to send hate (especially those who won't shut the **** up about Classic Lara) because you've believed fake leaks and it's the exact the game you wanted or it's all tears. Maybe we need more thought police to put more content in that brain.

TR fanbase is only used to the idea of whining about everything :jugoflove:

Scion in the trailer and the logo, Peruvian architecture, T-Rex, wolves, spike trap,... Sure, there's also spiders and a weird rock monster thing but most of the things in this seem to point to it being based on TR1.

Crystal Dynamics just posted a Q&A

They were not involved in the making of this game, but they did provide some tips in order to provide a good TR experience.

Imo this means they definitely have more to show if CD wasn't involved in this l.

The Golem was certainly unexpected :pi:

Have we ever had Golems? If not, welcome to the TR family, Golem :hug:

lmao the irony. Hopefully they did the complete opposite of what was suggested.

Think the logo is the best thing about it. It's perfect.

I'm not sad about the reactions here, people are just fed up about Square Enix being greedy with its F2P games. It shows they are eager to met Lara Croft and Tomb Raider again in proper way.

Noice !

100%!

Awesome! Thank you! :D

Both, Lara and the logo look great!

nah they're a bunch of tasteless locals! Imagine complaining about such a cute Lara design. Couldn't be me! :princess:

Yes, imagine a world where people's tastes and opinions differed. That would be wild.

I know right? You have to laugh at their audacity :vlol:

Yeah it would be nice to see people opinion about the trailer, Lara, artstyle and all to cheer it up a bit. :p
EDIT : I'm talking about general public, not here in TRF.

A brand new supernatural or fantastical enemie is always welcomed indeed. :)

oh, this announcement was kinda out of nowhere lol

i'm pleasantly surprised, the artstyle is very cute and i love that they feature the duals and her braid (not classic outfit with a pony like the Lara Croft games).

but i don't know how i feel about it being a mobile game..

Yes, imagine a world full of taste and not lacking it.

we need to get behind this game, whether it's what you want or not
CD have convinced Square that Classic Lara doesn't have much of a fanbase and won't make any money, let's prove em wrong

I wonder if this will be the start of the 25th anniversary

Thanks to those who replied to my question. I understand now. I'm not too bothered by it being free to play in this case. My small experience is that it's optional to spend money to make progress. I'd rather that on a mobile game than microtransactions on a main game.

The Lara model looks similar to a fan art that was posted here not too long ago.
