Or we can just chillax and wait, so we have the bow, the axe, and any other weapons we can use such as dual pistols

Yall crazy or somthing?

It's not like the bow is Lara's only weapon.

:tmb:

It's ok with me if Lara's "signature" is the bow as long as she has the dual pistols too... :pi:

What was so signature about the pistols anyways?

A. She always had them so they seemed like a preference

B. They were always visible on her.

Simple. She can be a woman of many weapons as she has always been.

She always had them. They were the default weapon in all the games (and the weapon of choice for proper players :cool:), pretty much all references to Lara outside the games depict her with the pistols, the live models all sported them. The list goes on really.

Because, outside the realm of sci-fi and RPGs, it's not a great weapon.

Well it would make a whole lot more sense finding a bow in a tomb than a shotgun or pistol. NOt to mention arrows stand up against the weather much better than ammo. I can see why Crystal would make it the default.

Okay the argument that its ridiculous for Lara to be mowing down enemies is ridiculous because its just a game and I want to feel like a badass and if Lara has the will and perseverance to defend herself then right on her.

Also wasn't Lara in some archery thing in college? Oh and bows require a lot more skill than guns. I love the weapon. It's great.

Realism or not, I don't care. It's a game. It's a work of fiction wrapped around the cloak of emotional realism.

Lol my thoughts exactly.

Hopefully the bow is just a starter weapon of sorts.

The bow will likely become the signature weapon. It's in every single promotional art for the game.

It's been officially stated as her new signature weapon. It'll continue throughout the series as her featured weapon.
