Well we have a screenie of Lara laughing, so most likely yes.

Yeah, there's obviously some sort of light humor in that screen. Unless it was an ingame shot done just for magazines and stuff but I doubt that.

larafan25 07-01-12 00:18

I don't think she's laughing, I think it's a cross between embarrassed/ being smug or feeling flattered. I bet it's right out of the scene where Roth tries to cheer her up and tells her she's croft, etc...

edit: But I do think there will be some humor between Lara and other characters such as Roth, it would feel kind of dead otherwise.

But roth is laughing for sure so he would have had to crack some sort of joke.

I was going to be lazy and say "you're right"...

But then I decided to hunt down the shots and...

Yes, there's a smile, but he's saying something, and the angle's weird. I don't think he's laughing really. :/

And here you can totally envision Lara looking away in disbelief "I'm not that kind of Croft"...

Look at his crows feet and his mouth. He's obviously smiling compared to the second screen you showed.

larafan25 07-01-12 00:30

Yep, he's smiling, but not smiling, he's smiling. People make smiles without necessarily "smiling", it's probably just caght at that moment, he's probably not yelling at her, talking down to her, or anything, but I don't think he's laughing either.

He's definitely laughing at something genuinely. Speaking in terms of body language, the side the of the eyes don't squint unless you're generally laughing, smiling. It doesn't happen when you just widen your lips.

larafan25 07-01-12 00:38

His crows feet look the same in both screenshots. :/

It looks squinty near the eyes in the screen where his face is turned. Plus he's flashing a bit of teeth.

larafan25 07-01-12 00:43

Yes, he's flashing teeth because he's smiling as he's in the middle of saying something. o.O

Let's just wait, and we'll see. He's not laughing. :pi:

Well, I'm not the only one that senses the light humor in that scene sooo. :whi:

Whever. Only time will tell.

Where?

Stevo505 07-01-12 03:43

They're smiling. Why would they both be doing it if there wasn't some sort of humor there to ease the negative demeanor?

just*raidin*tomb 07-01-12 03:49

This little argument over the smiling is amusing.

They are both smiling. Or at least they appear to be. Whether it's ironic or genuine, there's no way to tell.

4:46 - when she jumps she either stumbles or rolls...

I don't think she rolled because she got back up too quickly. It would've taken longer if she rolled.

I think you're right, she does come up too fast.

I don't even know what you mean? o.O

EDIT:
sorry, I do now. I thought you specifically meant 4:46. xD

It does look like a roll, i must say, But i think it's just her arching herself from the height?.

Tear 07-01-12 04:11

So... is everyone in agreement that Lara's ****in' hot? :whi:

larafan25 07-01-12 04:12

^YES.

When she jumps to the wooden platform, she goes down and out of the camera's view, and then comes up as if she's stumbled or rolled.

She's beautiful. Glowing. Her face is as pretty as a fresh rose. :pi:

just*raidin*tomb 07-01-12 04:34

I'm pretty sure those are stumbles. They look similar to underworld's stumble, which was a great animation.

Well sort of similar...

I know :p

Did anyone ever notice in the gameplay demo, when Lara exits the cavern and sees all the ships, there are several birds circling in spots on the island? There were two groups of circling birds. That's usually a sign that something is dead. I wonder what killed whatever the birds are scavenging for.

larafan25 07-01-12 04:50

Did anyone notice all of the mountains and treesÉ And how we can go anywhere we see as itès in the gameÉ D:

just*raidin*tomb 07-01-12 04:56

Did anyone notice how that flag moved in the wind and the waves crashing on the shoreline and how the sun just beamed through the clouds it was so beautiful. :O

OMG! The flags in the leaked demo, we can grab and swing on them.

If you look closely at the screenshot with the Buddha statue in the distance, it has those exact flags on it. D:

Also...

This island looks huge to me...

just*raidin*tomb 07-01-12 05:00

Holy ****. It does look huge! :eek: Look at that plateau and those mountains that kind of look snowy at the top! :yik: :yik: :yik: :yik: :yik: :yik:

Maybe. :pi:

Stevo505 07-01-12 05:02

It is huge... and I like how it looks like when "TOMB RAIDER" appears the sun seems to shine through the letters.

larafan25 07-01-12 05:02

I think the mountains from the other angle have more white to them, Ièm trying to get a screen...

I hope we can go there...

If we don't, they flat out lied when they said "you can go anywhere you see."

I hope we get to go through that forest too, and stumble upon some sort of ancient ruin. *sigh

I know. Ièm confident we can go there, but I just question how.

Like...are the hubs just these areas we see, but surrounded by walls (like in that map I posted before) or can we actually explore the higher lands that acts as the ÈwallsÈÉ

Sorry about all of those Èès, my keyboard is messed. :9

BTW the game looks amazing when you takes screens in HD...

http://i663.photobucket.com/albums/u...fan25/oooh.png

I hope Lara has a crawl move like that, so we crawl on all fours...
