Calling stuff like "longer pants" "progress" like as if as wearing shorts is some morally bad thing.

So who's right?

This is about Lost Ark but I don't doubt an article like this would be created for TR is Lara was sexier in the next game.
Dont defend idiotic arguments by bringing other idiotic arguments.

Who's right?? People with common sense and not manipulators Who complain about agendas 24/7 but they sure force their own when it's convenient. It's so obvious what certain "content" creators are doing by railing Up people like this and making them think they're in a minority fighting against Evil wokies... Lemme sit and laugh in pain.

I don't even watch Melonie. My own experiences are just from Twitter comments or reddit ones, and articles like this that gain attention.

And no I know that people that prefer "sexier" females in video games are a massive majority and that the "woke" people are a tiny minority, but they are still pretty vocal.

So when a bunch of people come together and see something they don't like, and they start saying "yikes" or "do better" because they are absolutely convinced that they are morally right and have the right of it and everyone who disagrees with them is a sexist bastard, you know something is wrong, moreso because companies and devs for some reason like to listen to said people.

Lmao everyone likes to think they're in a majority or minority when it's more convenient and also they're the only morally correct ones. I dont buy this bs.

Reality isn no one ****ing cares besides the usual whiners masquerading dumb polítics and other intentions behind opinions.

No one said you are sexist for prefering a body for a fictional character, but you are depending on how you express yourself.

Im gonna start believing people are this dense on purpose **** cant be real.

But they do though. That's what I'm trying to say. That's why Twitter is a damn cesspool. Because that's all I see when I go on there when I'm just trying to see what news are there for franchises that I like. People masquerading dumb polítics and other intentions behind opinions, like you said. It doesn't help at all that literally every single dev in the world is using it for news so you have to go on there if you wanna stay in touch.

I think people just want to get outraged at something cause they're really bored. And for clicks.

This is possibly the best description of Reboot Lara there is. Applies to her appearance and personality.

This not only applies to the outrage, but also to the excitement. Fans are so desperate for any breadcrumbs that they're already hopping up and down about this statue because it might be what unified Lara will look like. They're coloring the image and already turning it into avatars.

Give it a few months when new stuff comes out and everyone will agree the statue is indeed bland and boring. It's the same with Reboot Lara's fringe and mullet - when that was first ever revealed in the leadup to TR2013 desperate people thought it looked great. Now everyone, including most Reboot stans, admit it's one of the ugliest design choices Lara's character has ever had.

And you are forgetting the amount of content with sexualized and sexy women. Get out of your Bubble where you're a victim and the others are meanie oppressors. If you are in a majority then It shouldnt be a problem if three purple haired idiots with a septum and turtle faces call you sexist right?? Make no sense lmaoooo

Yeah no, everyone either hated or was just indifferent about Lara's hair from day one. Especially the in-game version...
