>Pratchett tells me she played a couple of the classic games, but she wasn't a "massive Tomb Raider fan" before working on the reboot.
>"I'd seen the movies, of course. But I was actually put off as a younger female gamer by the way [Tomb Raider] was advertised," she admits. "It was all sort of like, nudge, nudge, wink, wink to the guy. And you know, she was very much marketed to the guys and that your girlfriend will be jealous and that sort of thing."
>Pratchett says her younger self "just couldn't be doing with it" and so instead went off to play other things. "However," she continues, "thanks to writers like me or Neil Druckmann, female protagonists no longer receive that treatment, now they are realistic characters that women can relate to instead of competing with them."
