Now, don't get me wrong, Camilla's "British" accent is quite awful and she does mispronounce a few words, but just in this case of saying "elevator" instead of "lift", I mean, it's hardly Earth-shattering. It's completely understandable why she would say it. And yes, I now feel ashamed that I'm discussing this super-nitpicky subject that you brought up. :pi: |

I know this might sound stupid , but did anyone thought Lara was dead after the helicopter crash ? :p ....I really thought that ! when Roth was trying to awake her , screaming at her and she is still unconscious I thought he'll cry : " Oh ,nooooo Laraaaaaaaaaaa " one second or another !!!!
stupid I know :cln: |
I remember the first time I played the game, at the part where the demons capture you and string you up! When she pulled herself free and fell on the ground I thought I did something wrong and she died :vlol: :pi: then she got up..

I know what a lift is...it's an elevator, isn't it?
Something that is like...it goes up...the lift. |
''Lift'' is also the Dutch word for elevator.
/no1currfact |
Same in Hungarian. *shrugs*
Either way, I'm happy that I don't have to deal with such, first world British problems. |

As a matter of a fact she did call it "lift" in Legend so it seems weird that she says "elevator" this time instead. Maybe they forgot to de-Americanize Lara's lines :p ?
I can see why some people are pissed but I just can't relate, I usually prefer the British version or spelling of words but I occasionally stick to the American version so I almost don't recognise which word is used for what. For example, up until now, I couldn't tell whether lift or elevator was the British word, same goesfor the words apartment and flat. |
I wonder how many sales TR did now. just curious
maybe 5 or 6 mill or maybe higher? |

I usually also stick to British spelling and words. They taught me 'colour' and not 'color' and this applies to a lot of other things. But sometimes I would automatically write trashy instead of rubbish for example. I don't know why I prefer pants to trousers though. :p It sounds better to me, I guess. |
^ Apartment is now just as used in Br. English as flat is. Though, apartment carries connotations of luxury where a flat would be pretty basic.

Bad writing is what it comes down to primarily, a story and its dialogue written by people who's only inspiration appears to be films. Also, a bad choice of voice actress, a "proper" Brit would've spotted & flagged up those differences during read throughs because they stand out.

They say they did a thorough international search and auditioned thousands of girls (or something) and they turned up a girl in their own back garden who overacts and has a questionable accent. I've no doubt they probably auditioned a good few actual English girls with great acting abilities who weren't afraid to point out any American English used, but I bet CD thought they were probably too ugly. I doubt it's a coincidence all the VA's for Lara are super attractive (especially the German one). http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/5rFyqmAvbw...sexy-101207827 |

I was one of the first peopel to support CD's actions and it's not that I'm not grateful or anything and I did love the new game however, some of their actions are confusing me... as far as I know, many people were fired between Underworld and Tomb Raider, if the previous people were still in charge (which I think weren't) I think the whole thing would have turned out a lot better than it did. As for them being pretty the German and the French voice actresses are the exact opposites. Camilla, Yuko (Japanese VA) and the Arab VA whose name I always forget were pretty, the rest were all average, to say the very least! |

New-t stands for trend really? Oh, okay well then I'm glad they closed that thread because that term makes no sense. Trends change.
Then I'm not sure anyone really is one. Redundancy at its best. |

Oh, and the MP on the PS3 is terrible. How was the game released with the MP like that? Lag and players falling through the map. And this is after the patch. :vlol: |
