 Well, in a weird way, TR games ended up feature Lara dying a lot, it is weird to seeing them actually focus on that though.

 The issue is the cinematic nature of these games, that make such gaming conventions it more apparent or stand out more. Last of Us seems to be willing to address that though and or aknowledge it though.

How though? To me all the footage released so far seems like exactly the same oh woe killer of men :qq: thing that nonetheless rewards you for murder and represents your opponents as rapists and psychopaths.
To me its the gravitas of each encounter seems to have, at least I'm getting the sense that meeting an enemy is always close to a "aw gently caress, I only got one bullet" sort of moment. If it's just Uncharted all over again, then lol
