I'm so happy with how RotTR looks More locations, more ruins, more puzzles, more actual tomb raiding!! This is the Lara croft I know and love, who is out doing what enjoys and loves and kicking rear end while doing it

She's T&A Indiana Jones pretending to be Nathan Drake, guys. Don't lie to me. I don't care if it is E3.

I heard they actually did pretty well making her more than that in the more recent game, but I didn't play it so gently caress if I know.

Did they really have to have a host on the livestream that's only job is to read twitter tweets?

I complained about this earlier, its insufferable. Every news station does the same thing and I honestly do not loving understand the point of it. Twitter already means you don't need that.

My guess with some of the news stations is that they figure the old people watching don't know what twitter is and don't understand how to read it themselves, so they have to read it aloud for them.

But E3 shouldn't be targeting old folks :v:

They did, they hired Rihanna Pratchett to give her character way more depth, but gently caress if some goons are going to recognize that. She's all T&A, duh.

That Shadow Warrior 2 gameplay... Double jumps, snikt bub claws made from the finest hanzo steel, co-op, the graphics look incredible, this is everything I wanted out of a sequel.

The last Tomb Raider was ok, but there were games with better puzzles, better fighting, better exploring and climbing, and better stories. Just like the older games it was average as gently caress, which I guess is a testament to preserving the original game's legacy

It's probably shown to increase viewership because if they read tweets people feel more "involved" or something dumb like that.

It was a fun game and I liked it and they really reined in the gratuity unless you're into snuff porn because the graphic deaths are definitely a thing.

Still, Lara Croft will never be the "most human character in video games". This new one will be fun and good too though. It only took them 20 years and like three reboots to make her games worth your time.

The trailer was like 10 seconds so you aren't missing a whole lot. You get to transform into cars and smash into robots mid-combo though, so that's cool.

Ah ok, well I guess the fact that Platinum is making a Transformers game is good enough for me.
