If we don't need it, CD are better working on features that are more fitting. I'm fine with the absence of swimming this time around. It's not like she can swim away from the island anyway.

I couldn't agree more and LOL that's one of the dumbest reasons to not buy the game, bless him.

Surely it's not the end of the world, but if it adds more to the gameplay then why take it away?

Well I don't think they would answer a question about something they would change a bit later, in other words, if they weren't sure they wanted it that way they wouldn't confirm that there will be only one outfit (for example) and then procede to release a ton others! This might be a far-fetched example since there was a large time space between the time they said they weren't gonna have other outfits and the Pre-order/DLC crysis that started at the end of 2012 but still :/ .

I'm not accusing CD of anything I just find really funyy how they cause mini (or larger at some occasions) rages and then take everything back :p .

Some just really like it I guess, I like it too, and it was always a way of cleaning Lara after rolling around in the dirt in the TRilogy, imagine how much more beautiful Lara whould look after a swim :cln: ! I won't go to such an extent and say that I won't buy the game because it's not it (it was even said here on TRF by the way :p ... ) but I just hope it returns.

But she passed through many waterfalls in the cave demo and she was still dirty D: .

I don't expect her to be automatically clean though and I guess that they didn't really care about whether she would be clean or not at the time :p .

If water was enough to clean off dirt and blood and grass stains then wth is soap for :confused:

The cave demo is really outdated at this point though.

Mm, I think they must do as throughout the footage it does keep changing..if it's scripted, I don't know.

This track screams Tomb Raider. Especially from 1:19 onwards.

I can't remember if this was confirmed or not, but was the auto-save function confirmed to be returning?
