Because she was literally made to cater to you as an audience dummy

>was my first vidya crush
>still is my favorite, even after what they did to her
shes timeless, bro.

>>6333875
Is that why the guy who created her said the exact opposite?
Is that why she's one of the most well received mc by female audiences?

>>6333875
she's real! get out!

>self-sufficient
>highly-educated
>highly-skilled
>strongly independent
>can kick ass and handle an arsenal of different weapons
>defeats the white male patriarchy Von Croy
>somehow that's offensive to feminists


I don't fucking get it.

>>6333951
The only solid criticism of her is the over sexualisation, that's a factuality and an actual issue.

None of these other critiques are valid.
It's literally a bunch of jewish feminists and sheboons putting pressure to change a characters features to appeal to their broken sense of self-entitlement and racial dynamics.

They have more influence over what is and isn't allowed in this supposedly sexist and racist industry, they form massive pressure groups out of thin air, an entire media industry working in their favour, a bonfire of vanities.

Ha ha, what?

that gave me cancer, thanks.

>The game was designed so players stared at her butt in ever scene, too.
Yeah, some of that is the nature of a 3rd person camera. You can say the same of literally every other game with a third person camera. From Spyro to Skyrim it's just a consequence of placing the camera behind someone, and never has it bothered me that Spyro and Skyrim-Man's butt is constantly on screen. Who cares? How are these people this uninformed?

>>6334037
Yeah, you know, the main character to the sequel of Final Fantasy X, released in 2011? It was a huge competitor for Skyrim.

>>6334002
>The only solid criticism of her is the over sexualisation, that's a factuality and an actual issue.
Cringe. Literally have sex.

>>6333951
It's really the large spherical polygons the creators gave her. And let's face it, that's why people bought the game in 1996.

>>6334002
>Over-sexualization
Sexless Social Justice Cuck detected.

>>6334002
imagine if showing a guy had a big dick and bragging about was "over sexualisation". now whos the sexist?

>>6333865
That's her way of being the best girl of any medium ever.

>>6333951
>This is not a bait

>seeing characters who look like you and who you can identify with is really important

what a fucked, seflf-centered view

I'm 6'4" broad and 230 lbs with wavy hair and ruddy complexion yet all the video games I really enjoy have tiny narrow pale smooth and small-featured Japanese schoolboys and girls as protags

>>6333865
well OP.... she was designed to appeal to brainless retards.

>>6333951
Sometimes I think to myself, "why don't I play modern games? Why did I abandon my love of checking out the latest video games in favour of Mongolian electric puppet shows, while playing stuff that's now pushing into its third decade of existence on God's Green Earth?"

I've now been thoroughly reminded, thank you.

t. Social Justice Incel

You Tomb Raider spammers need a containment thread.

>>6334625
I always feel bad seeing this meme. That woman was actually really level headed in the original video.

>>6334789
Social Justice Warriors are never level-headed. They are mentally unstable.

>>6334789
That's not the look of a level-headed person.

>>6333951
Insecure women feel threatened by secure women that seem to have their shit together, even when they're just an escapism fantasy ideal. Just as housemothers were peer pressured onto the job market in the 80s and 90s despite already having the full time job of raising the kids, mostly by women who didn't have kids, now the same type of gal is projecting their insecurities onto other gals who have the build or brests or whatever they wish they had. Heck, nuLara is if anything way more sexualized within her own games than old Lara in a tourture-porn kind of way. Easier it seems for bitter lesbians/trannies to shlick to that than something they've long given up to strive towards.

>>6333865

she is strong sexy and don't afraid of anything

>>6334890
Except Social Justice Incels never being level headed is actually a proven fact. They get triggered even when they have no reason to be. Everything offends them.

>intentionally increasing boob size
>intended to appeal to female audiences
What a retard.

>>6334534
Based. It's a self-centered view for sure. I'm a brown skinned, curly haired spic and my favorite characters are either robots, samurai, aliens or undead things.

What’s the consensus for Chronicles and Revelation? Got em dirt cheap for Dreamcast

>>6335882
Revelation is the last good classic TR, though I don't agree with what they did to her character model by giving her that porn model look.

Chronicles a shit. Complete and utter shit.

you think guys are the only ones who like power fantasies and self-insert characters? goddamn you're retarded

it's Never Enough(tm)

>>6334002
>The only solid criticism of her is the over sexualisation, that's a factuality and an actual issue.
is it though? is it really?
i suppose it's not like they put images of strong, sexually-attractive men in video gam-- oh wait, they do that just as much, if not even more
this whole "unrealistic representation of women" is horseshit, they do that with men just as readily

>>6333951
>hurrr the camera emphasizes the butt
when the fuck does this ever happen in the game

>>6336364
Also back then this current obsession about asses didn't exist yet, pretty much everyone were tits guys.

>>6334346
What's the thinking proces there? Maybe they were thinking about Kingdom Hearts or something. Well, their target audience probably doesn't know any better either, or care. Let's not get angry about things written for completely different readers.

>>6336364
it's a third person platformer, the camera always shows the characters butt, female or not
this was a question the developers of crash bandicoot had early on, when trying to develop on of the earliest examples of 3D platformers, they jokingly called it the "sonic's ass" game, since the camera would always show the player characters ass

>>6336368
breh do you even 90's

>>6336313
To women Ryu et al look as dumb as Kristen Stewart looks to you. Do you get it? Men want unsexualized cool men and sexy fetishized women. Women want unsexualized cool females and sexy fetishized men. This is irreconcilable.

Of course, presenting this basic ick as a moral issue is dishonest and does a great disservice to actual feminism, but such are all moral outrages.

People misapplying morality to enforce their purely subjetive opinions invariably become the laughingstock of the future generations themselves.

>>6336379
yeah but it's zoomed out, it's not like it's aiming right at it

>>6336382
not many human male playable video game characters look like average men, is my point
would you want to play the latest call of battlefield 2: modern shitstorm as a character that looks like your dad?

>>6336384
well, the camera is looking right at crash.. it's just that crash is a heavily stylised cartoon character with a miniscule butt
when it comes to butts, there's only so much you can do with a realistic proportioned human, if you can see the back of a person, you're gonna see their butt, it would be weird to try to hide it

>>6336379

Probably just a typo that nobody proofreading it caught because they don't know FF.

>>6336413
that's why i posted it
it should be noted that the song is from 1992, several years before the first tomb raider

>>6334002
>The only solid criticism of her is the over sexualisation, that's a factuality and an actual issue.

How? She's always the one in control of her sex appeal? She's not victimized, she's not FORCED to be anyone's play thing. She never comes close to getting raped for drama. Implying sex appeal is an idiotic thing to say by clenched ass pearl clutching ass hole chuds like you who would rather spend your time complaining online and shoving cadburrys in your face than actually putting in the minimal amount of effort towards your health and appearance. Then you try to parade that vapid coed around like she's some kind of salvation when all that bimbo ever does is cry, get her ass kicked by people who wouldn't even register a threat to the original Lara and get all her friends killed and this is somehow what's considered a strong female character? A boring crybaby with no personality, urgency or bearing on anything but since she's not sporting double D cups this somehow makes her a better character?

You know it really says more about a generation when the supposed sexist, COOMERS as you faggots want to put it, are "turned on" by the smart, confident and competent heroic woman while the supposed WOKE crowd is into someone who basically only exists for snuff porn. Fuck off you pearl clutching asshole. Come back after these supposed non sexualized woman give you a peck on the cheek for standing up for them.

>>6333951

The last female character with big boobs.

Literally who

Try actually watching the video instead of spouting cool hivemind opinions mindlessly.

>>6337683
You should do the same with watching full Donald Trump speeches, instead of watching CNN take him out of context & you screeching "Orange Man Bad" like the mindless brainwashed Social Justice Incel you are.

>>6337909
Lol I both voted for Trump and placed a $50 bet that he would win. You really are stupid.

>>6336782
Fuck off, underage

>>6337930
The only one stupid here is you defending Social Justice Incels like pic related.

perfection

>>6337972
Seriously. Just watch the video. You don't even have to agree with me, but at least skim it so you aren't spouting mindless opinions.

And that proves that females can't empathise with someone who is different from them in most aspects.

>>6338732
>females
It's a tranny

>>6338215
Unlike most of the official game renders, which were a bitcoarse no matter how you look at them, manface and all, this really is perfection.
Also, I fucking applaud the designers for giving her a luxurious plait. Plaits are the epitome of beauty. Plebs don't understand. Short-haired pseudogirls must be put in sweatshops where they can make combs and pins for real women.

>>6338215
The comics were better than the games themselves, prove me wrong.

You can't.

>>6338984
If there's a lot of cute Lara in them, I might download a few cbrs. I certainly wouldn't try reading them, but I might leaf through a few issues to check out the artwork. Is Lara cute?

>>6338984
was there precise tile based platforming?

>>6338998
Absolutely

>>6338215

It amazing how politics just shits all over everything.
Why is this allowed in gaming forums?
Don't you cucks get enough faggotry on /pol?
