I can think of many milestones, not a defining moment. It was all a marketing prop
![]() If no one from SE/EM said "defining moment", no one would have noticed/cared.

Defining moments:
- First kill in Yamatai; - Mentor's death; - Acknowledging magic and the supernatural do exist; - Deciding not to change the world, accepting the past is past. I'm sure Rise must have something too. The realization that her step-mother was a traitorous bitch, perhaps? :/

Har, I remember how everyone wanted to know her "defining moment", I opened up a thread too
![]() I personally think it's the Croft Manor flashback when she raids her first tomb (her mother's) and her Dad "kills himself", making her an orphan. It says EXPERIENCE LARA CROFT'S DEFINING MOMENT on the back of my North American PS4 copy.. they were trying to do something with it, we just never found out what

If her defining moment is down to interpretation of the player, then they haven't done a very good job.
It was all for marketing.

It was probably meant to be that one shot of Lara they used for marketing (you know the one. We all know the one) but when the actual game came out it wasn't very defining at all in context. She killed a little more emotionlessly than usual and then broke down in self-pity at the end. (Actually.. that might be the definition of reboot Lara. Her defining moment indeed)

I feel like if I start a thread about this is would get deleted so I'm just curious. Has anyone played the new Horizon game? I was shocked at how ugly some of the outfits were in that game. It made me appreciate the Shadow of the Tomb Raider outfits which I know most people, myself included, thought were pretty ugly.
But holy smokes they don't even remotely come close to some of the hideous outfits in the new horizon. There were only like 3 out of 40+ outfits I even wanted to wear at all in that game. https://imgur.com/a/GSF0TzC https://imgur.com/a/TsV6zzY https://imgur.com/a/V0ovpCJ https://imgur.com/a/7xxbOGn I don't even know what I'm looking at there geez.

I don't know anything about Horizon, is there a reason why she's wearing outfits like that, a setting or story context? Are those ones optional?

It's a jungle/tribal setting similar to Shadow and you get to chose the outfits you wear, but imo they are really ugly to the extreme, even compared to the shadow ones. But I will admit at least they don't force you to wear them through most of the game like Paititi.

Horizon as a whole always seemed pretty boring and uninspired to me. I don't know how or why it ever got so big (though I'm guessing it has a lot to do with being a Sony product) but people like what they like I guess.
