LOL - yeah we're the worst.

I first remember complaining about this sort of thing which could well have been here. It was likely almost two decades ago when I was considerably younger than I am now.

I think what sparked it was back when the original Assassins Creed came out I remember the (female) producer of the game, the now well known and respected within the gaming industry, Jade Raymond, was being interviewed as part of the game's pre-promotion. She was particularly proud to highlight the way Ezio clothes and his hair moved realistically as he walked through crowds of people.

When the game came out its gameplay failings whilst not disastrous were obvious. Yet she and her development team had spent who knows how many hundreds or even thousands of man-hours (that's person-hours for GenZs) on that sort of trivial artistic detail rather than the far more important matter of the gameplay. At what cost too?

I like to be consistent and honest which has nothing to do with age.

You're seriously bothered about whether a game's character's hairstyle can or cannot be animated. Try sharing that with your real world peers, if you dare, and see what people your own age actually think.

My point is that there are far more pertinent and undoubtedly more important matters, within the limits of our interests here, that are worth discussing.

Far more important matters such as?

Bro you are in a Tomb Raider forum, a videogame forum, a videogame from 96 and this section is specifically dedicated for that one game.

People caring about the old model being able to have some sort of consistency with the other older models is not something of minor importance per say, even if you feel that way.

And if you feel that way then just make a thread about the so called ''important matters'' that you are refering to instead of being overall annoying towards something others care about.

And yes old people are the worst because, 9 times out of 10 they are narrow minded and instead of looking for flexible solutions they think that everything revolves around what they think, exhibit A: you.

Narrow minded? You've just characterized 90% of 'old' people as being inflexible and selfish. That's as good an example of ignorant, narrow minded, age prejudice as I've seen articulated in any forum. Water off a duck's back.

Looking for flexible solutions to what exactly? Trying to come up with a solution to a 'problem' that is not worthy of anyone's time is simply...........................wasting time.

I was just suggesting there are better and more interesting things to discuss here than the animation of LC's hair.

That is hardly self-centred and coming from somebody who has been here a little more than a year and managed to post almost 3365 times, no doubt expressing their opinions on a range of TR matters, I find quite amusing.
