Of course I am being sarcastic. The trilogy script was awful. Not just this scene. |

I liked Classic Lara so much because she broke the mould. Sure, her father had been on some archaeological trips in his youth like a lot of aristocrats at the time, but his expeditions would have been a world away from what Lara does, hence the aversion and eventual disowning. I can picture Henshingly's trips involved more tea and crumpets than traps and deadly pitfalls. Last edited by Boobandie; 19-09-19 at 01:40. |

I can 100% picture Lord Henshingly sitting on a table with a bunch of fat, old and moustached men drinking tea and being absolutely appalled that his daughter, a high born lady would be delighted to be acting as 'the help' and is getting her hands dirty on site. |

I can't even remember that he said that. Nonetheless, it doesn't really bother me that much. I have no feelings about it strangely enough. Can't say whether it's good or not

Really though, I don't think of her backstory in the Core games. I just think of the characters as things happen. I mean usually I just skip the cutscenes as I've seen them before anyway. |

^ It really would. It still takes away a bit from the character when you compare it to the original Core bio, but at least it wouldn't fall on the cliche of there always being a man as a reason for a woman to be a bad ass or pretty just independent.

well, everything becomes a cliche if you oversimply it in such a manner.
