More emphasis on actual Tomb Raiding, which includes Lara being interested in archaeology, history and the supernatural. We see in the first film she has an interest in history, along with a knack for remembering stuff and solving puzzles, but her motivation to go on an adventure was to find her dad. Which she did, where she found she had a natural instinct and ability to survive a few dangerous situations along the way. Then she found out that his partner is probably connected to Trinity, the baddies from the the island.

So going forward, all we were left with was that Ana is part of Trinity and apparently Lara made a decision to go after them. I saw little to suggest she enjoyed the adventure enough to go on more adventures as a tomb raider, ones where she can use the skills she has already and learned. With Himiko just being a corpse at the end of her adventure, there's nothing of the supernatural to ignite an interest in myths or more supernatural stuff. So, without the twist of Ana and Trinity what would have set her off on another adventure? So I'm hoping for this aspect to be explored more in the next film.
