Polygon: Tomb Raider's Grisly Death Animations are Outdated - Page 12

It's an opinion - but the way it's written is more on the trolling side or just not that good in general.
They could have written for example:

Are the death scenes in Tomb Raider still necessary?

The Tomb Raider games, however, are far more action adventure and obviously inspired by the Uncharted games.

It's the other way around in regards to the older TR games.

And besides, these death animations don’t crop up in the combat. They just appear in the platforming sections, where a single wrong button press can be the difference between life and death.

Wrong! Most death-scenes, aside from the platforming action, are triggered by mostly wrong or to slow button commands. And those are also used in combat scenes.

And you can find more...

One of the best things that the new Tomb Raider series has for it is the Mature rating. I pray that they don't get rid of it.

I agree with you completely! It needs to stay!
