Can we just stop pretending we ''dont know'' why they did that with the Chronicles FMV?

You said it yourself, it was a ''different time'' and ''more free''

aka people could get away with doing things that are clearly questionable.

The marketing for Lara during that era was painfuly clear, and not even Teen Lara was spared from it.

Lets not play dumb now.

If they ever do another "statement" at the start of a remaster of Chronicles like they did with the remasters we have now I can say it will be justified because that whole moment is just really ****ed up and weird.

Yeah, for Chronicles it would make sense.

I wish that they did not include the scene in the 1st place.

When I first saw it after all these years, it took me a minute to realize that it was actually in the game.

Cause you said:

I am not playing dumb, but I also don't think that we should remove content from a game that was made in the early 2000s.

Honestly, I have no idea what is the best way moving forward.
But before you quoted your own words in which you said:

Indeed. She is supposed to be 16.

It was a different time, but you're right.. It's weird.

I am not sure why they decided to do it this way... I guess that we will never know.
So basically you agree that it was weird and yet you still want it in the game?

I can understand certan things being a product of their time, but in this case the scene wasnt needed because the character was a young girl, not a grown woman.

So editing it or even skipping it wouldnt really impact anything at all. It wasnt cute then and its not cute today, its not about being sensitive in this case, you are mixing things up.

It really doesnt matter too much to me personally, but to summarize:

1) it wasnt needed and it was weird.

2) they KNEW what they were doing.

3) whether its included or not in a possible remastered version shouldnt matter due to its nature.

I don't have all the answers.

I really wish Melonie Mac would do a video about this.

It would be best to just remove it entirely. Its just gross and pointless.

EDIT:...you have to be trolling with the MM comment

Is it bad I kinda want this patch to improve nothing just to see the collective meltdown?

At this point I don’t even care what’s in the patch really, I just want it released so I can continue my play through playing the best possible version.
