At least it's being noticed more and more. I felt like I was insane when I was the only person noticing how much this community flips and flops.

Either way, it has been very common since the LAU days and I’m also glad people are noticing it more and more. I personally snapped a few weeks ago when people started praising Rise’s amazing color palette. I mean, are you ****ing kidding me with this? LOL |

I guarantee you that if there was a time machine and a full play through of one of the reboot games was posted back then, or a synopsis of what the games are about, everyone would eat it up. I swear I saw people posting about crafting systems or making your own recovery items as early as Legend, but now nobody wants it anymore. Last edited by LaraCablara; 26-02-19 at 00:36. |

Thing is Tomb Raider was never campy nor was it dead serious.
Classic Tomb Raider always meandered between the two. The idea that Tomb Raider is either campy or serious is ridiculous. So is the idea that Tomb Raider cannot be serious. Tomb Raiders tone and atmosphere, especially in classic was similar to that of dark souls in that the atmosphere always felt series when it needed to be and Lara was always sporty where it needed to be. I don't want Tomb Raider to be campy and all jokes, laughs, lightheartedness. This was not Tomb Raider either. |

I could say that the last bits of TR1 where she is captured in Egypt was a bit campy, but other then that nothing else from that era was ever really campy. Most of it was a mix between sport and seriousness. It's why I agreed before that I find the notion that it is impossible for Tomb Raider to be a serious game ridiculous because Tomb Raider was always a mix of things. At least in my opinion anyway. |

I'd like to see a mix of the two a bit more. The Vikander movie nailed the mix of seriousness and light moments imo. Future games need to emulate that tone. |
