There's always potential they'll forget/change the pillars beyond recognition.

Thank you for that.

Of course there is. At the same time some things probably will be changed to the point where you can't recognize them. I can't be bothered with it unless it doesn't do the game any good, but I can see why some people would be.

Omg me too. It looks like a piece of ****. They have totally ruined Lara. First the braid and now this??? *doubetrollface*

For me she's realistic version of classic Lara. She has everything Lara Croft should have. (That's my opinion, because braid and dual pistols doesn't make Lara Croft for me).

Would you rather have a game called Tomb Raider with a brand new character than with Lara Croft no matter how different she's from the previous versions of Lara?

And don't even mention Legend. That crap! Seriously...Legend wasn't Tomb Raider in any way.

Haha,no,it wasn't >_<

I don't care about the braid. More incorporating the original past of Lara Croft. Make her immortal,that doesn't matter,but after growing up with a character...hahaha.

Yes,Tomb Raider (insert name here),it doesn't have to be Lara,that's my point. At this point the whole "Lara" thing seems to be a hindrance,or merely a selling point,rather than anything that has added to the games.

This is the origins story we've never seen before. Okay there are changes, but Lara won't be The Tomb Raider at the beginning will she? I doubt she'll ever be the exact same as before where we get to see just bits of pieces of her character who was primarily seen as hard and 'bad ass'. She'll be more rounded all the time instead of the odd snippet of niceness and she'll be bad ass again, just maybe in a different way than before.

Exactly! She's not a completely different Lara Croft from my point of view. Well, she is, but...she's still Lara, I don't know how to explain it. She is not that different.

1. She's recognizable as Lara Croft

2. Her clothes are almost the same

3. She's still British

4. She's still adventurer (or will become one)

5. She'll (most likely) get her dual pistols back in this game

6. She will raid tombs

So why people still can't see Lara Croft in her?

I'm going to ask a silly question...did you know she won't be able to swim and dive in Tomb Raider? :vlol:

Yep, which is why they're making her so radically different. To make her relatable, I guess. She's still recognizable to me, though. If you threw a different name on her (as well as the game), people would be on the defense calling it TR-ripoff.

@Lukass, I dunno tbh.

Isn't this the point to the whole origins story? To see the changes in Lara take place. From vulnerable 'every' girl to Tomb Raider. Or have I missed something?

We barely know her personality. That could make or break her (for me).

No, you haven't. That's correct. I'm glad they decided to make this origin story, because we never had one as a game (I don't count TR5 The Black Island). It would be extremely boring if she was kick ass and had dual pistols from the very beginning of this new game no matter how the story would be cool and graphics beautiful.

I have heard of that vile rumour!! It's the end I tell you! :D

I love swimming sections :(

Well,real Lara RIP'd with AOD for me,this new person - I'll call her something else in my head,and that will solve that :D
