I would! I love her design and whenever I play GoL or ToO with friends, I play one of the other characters because I can play as Lara all the time when I play by myself.

This! She also looks like some of the characters from AoD, which makes sense since a lot of the redesigned environments in TRAE give off heavy AoD vibes, especially Atlantis.

Exactly! The people complaining about Melissa and claiming that she wouldn't belong in a TR game don't seem to know what kind of people worked at Core Design and/or what the other Core games looked like. While they didn't wear their taste for different types of metal, rock and punk as much on their sleeves as id Software did, it was still pretty obvious if you read between the lines. I mean, in TR I Lara has red shoe laces, which is associated with punk culture and her bio states that she loves NIN. Also the early TR I design documents and the fact that Lara was inspired by Tank Girl should be very obvious hints. If anything, Melissa looks very Tank Girl-esque (which I love) and maybe Lara would've looked like that if someone else designed her. Maybe Nathan McCree should've made the soundtracks of TR I-III metal instead of classic. AFAIK the reason that he went with the latter was that most games at the time had soundtracks that sounded more like metal and rock (even MIDI soundtracks) and they wanted to differentiate TR from other games as much as possible.

Did you mispelled Lara and Natla by any means? That's the ultimate OTP

I think Melissa's inoffensive, imo she wouldn't be a character to pay attention to, she's just a character to use in coop because two Laras wouldn't make sense. Although now that I think about it who would want to play as this girl instead of Lara? Maybe the two players would fight to control Lara. Did people fight to be Lara in GoL and ToO?

They could have make both player control Lara without having two Lara:

Player 1 is Lara on his screen and sees player 2 as Melissa
Player 2 is also Lara on his screen and sees Player 1 as Melissa

I think they did something like that with ROTR, didn't they ?

So everyone's happy

That would look confusing if it was split-screen. But since it was PSP and each player would have his own screen, it'd be okay.

I remember seeing a post or a tweet that it was possible to run the multiplayer mode, but i can't find the post anymore ...

from what i see, it is needed to remove "-local" and "-nonetwork" from the parameters, and to extract the files to z:\artbase instead of c:\artbase,
but it crash all the time , it seems when it try to bind the network socket to the UDP multiplayer port... also i wonder how to tell the ip of the other player ...

anyone knows how to enable multiplayer ?

thanks !
