Game Sins started With 2013's Tomb Raider, so sinning Rise of The Tomb Raider was a no brainer. However, I probably could have saved myself a lot of time by just reuploading my original Tomb Raider video, as the plot is almost the exact same. Here's GAME SINS | Everything Wrong With Rise of the Tomb Raider.

Sin 87: They don't know that Jacob is immortal. No one knows because he keeps pulling a McLeod on people.
Sin 121: Apparently you weren't paying attention or missed a few journal entries in the game. There is one that explains that when you kill a deathless one he turns to ash and after a few hours a full Hellraiser revival starts where the ashes turn into bones then the muscles come back etc. until the killed is alive again.
Yeah, that never happened with the Deathless Ones in-game, though.
Pulling a McLeod?
@@aaqibsalim1568 It's from Highlander. Whenever the protagonist Connor McLeod stays to long in one place and people might notice that he doesn't age, he stages his death and shows up in different place under a different name mostly pretending to be his own descendant.
@@Quotenwagnerianer ohhhhh that's pretty cool. I might check that out. Thanks!
I always wondered what would happen if they were crushed XD or frozen XD
I have to disagree with sin 111. You say that Jonah is yelling into a voice recorder, but the text above states that it is a radio transmission that was intercepted by Trinity, meaning they're the ones who recorded it
good catch. Totally missed that
YURP! Pepperidge Farms remembers....
Yeah that kinda messed with me
But it has the looks of a voice recorder.
@@Daniel-nn8mr So they recorded the interception onto a voice recorder. It was still not recorded directly by Jonah.
Lol that was great!
Just for pointers though: Joan of Arc was probably there because of a myth that after she was burned at the stake, her heart was found in the ashes still beating. Not sure if that counts as immortality, but if Jacob's avoidance of death from bullets and other stuff counts, this could technically count as well. Her dad probably had it there as reference to the myth.

Indiana Jones and the rise of the uncharted Sequel.
woops, forgot Assassin's Creed.
+Mad Hatter
How about Indiana Croft and the rise of the uncharted creed.
ZShogan Perfect.
Exact
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Does Lara ever have to take a crap or piss? If she's holding them for who knows how long, maybe days, she must have extreme case of cystitis and constipation as well as probably had died from blood poisoning and some other diseases relating to intestine blockage. Okay, she probably would've just died.
"Jacob, it looks like we have the upper hand!"
... It DOES?
Comedy gold.
This is not Lara Croft. The real Lara Croft would indiscriminately shoot the villains before they had a chance to talk or steal something. Shooting things as a knee-jerk reaction is kinda Lara's thing
Edit: through playthroughs of the reboot games & thinking on my part, I have changed my ways & now appreciate the reboots
+Vince Shadell You do realize this is the rebooted Lara? Where they changed her character.
+Roxie ღ hence an ORIGIN story
Roxie ღ Exactly. This is not the Lara Croft we all know.This is not a badass British aristocrat who shoots first and asks never because dead men don't talk. this is a klutzy grad student that has an aversion to guns, ya know Lara Croft's whole shtick, besides giant boobs. The real Lara Croft carries dual 9mms and indiscriminately shoots anything that she wants to because she's Lara Motherfuckin' Croft.
Vince Shadell Again, ORIGIN story. She's not classic Lara yet but she's growing into the character throughout these games. Plus this Lara is much better developed as a character than Classic Lara ever really got. I mean let's face it, the Legends game trilogy did attempt some backstory, but really just shoved it aside for excess jumping and climbing
Ben Wasserman Gameplay is more important than story. When I got Tombraider 2013, I expected to be able to wield her dual 9mm pistols, flip around like a gymnast, and shoot the hell out of literally anything that moves. Classic Lara has fought two evil versions of her, a ghost, a giant spider monster with a human face, a cowboy, a kid on a skateboard spouting outdated slang, and a motherfucking T-Rex. THAT is the Lara I expected to play as. If i wanted to shoot bad guys with arrows, I'd play Legend of Zelda. I play Tombraider to riddle everything with bullets.
You make the best "sin" channels, good writing gold humor and actually sins, not so much nitpicking and we feel less an advertisment made.
OMFG YES. I WAS SO BOTHERED THAT THEY DIDNT MENTION SAM
Dean Castillo They actually do mention Sam in one of Lara's therapy sessions. She doesn't want to see Lara because Lara reminds Sam of the trauma she endured on Yamatai. The makers of the game touched on this in an issue of Game Informer.
Ah, that's bullshit, Jamel. A person's hero doesn't make them remember a traumatic event--it's the people who caused the trauma or the location the trauma took place in. Square Enix should've done a better job of that.
Here's how it _really_ should have played out: Ana tries to hit on Lara after the events of the game are over, but Lara declines, saying that she's already in a relationship with Sam. Not only would Sam have gotten a name drop in the game, it would also further develop her character despite her absence and explain why she isn't in the game in the first place: Lara doesn't want to put her in a similar situation again.
r0bw00d lol no, and Lara was never in a relationship in this seres. Plus Ana was her dad’s girlfriend
bluenuttefly I’m so sick of games leaving out serious information so you can read the lore somewhere else. Pretty much “We could put that information in the game, but we want more money so we made a comic so you have to buy that AND the game to fully understand what’s going on.
@@NeonSuperNovas Say that to the studio that made Final Fantasy XV...
Wait a minute
Excellent video!
I'd add a couple of sins for the total misuse of Russian language, since every text in each "star" Lara encounters is actually the same exact sentence, yet she translates it differently each time.
And the whole game is full of some Cold War-era cyrillics in it, meaning that it's all messed up and is barely readeable for a native speaker. I mean, there are approx. 260 mln people speaking Russian in the world and they couldn't find one person to translate their texts properly?
Oh, and yeah, Kitezh is not in Siberia :)
Arvydas Brazdeikis would be great at game sins
Should have sinned that ending for "Lara was already planning to shoot her, yet screams out "NO!" when she gets shot."
Well it was more like interrogation threatening then shoot. So shes upset her lead is gone
Ben Wasserman That was more the "NO!" of "Someone I like just died" not "DAMNIT MY LEAD!"
+Raiden777ify honestly those no's sound a bit alike when you're vengeful
Lol she screamed no bc her kill got stolen xD
She wasn't gonna shot her she just wanted answers and she said no because Anna died before she could tell her what happened to her father.
fantastic video once again! Keep up the work !
+Atozy Thanks Atozy. Your content has been awesome the past few weeks as well.
+Dartigan About the Divine Source, you forgot to mention: If death´s gone, that means the Earth would overpopulate in no time, and we would ran out of sources in months. A guy called Malthus set a theory about this.
+Dartigan will you go back and finish the uncharted 3 sins video or just skip it??
you must have a so much better job then Tyler congrats :)
Oh and btw, It's all a joke, pretty sure Dartigan enjoys the games he does videos on, but nitpicks on steriotypes and mistakes to make the video funny and critical :)
+Tyler Shevchenko Is people like you exist that's why we still getting half-done game with exclusive price. Thanks you...B@stard
The flamethrower guy having a rebreather makes sense seeing as fire burns up oxygen so he'd need it to breath in enclosed spaces
Imagine how much work this guy does who paints all of the ledges in games? He must be traveling non-stop.
The villagers didn't know about Jacob also, that guy had a rebreather because he was using a flamethrower, fire=smoke.
17.15 if you read the greyed out text above the white text it says that trinity intercepted a radio transimssion. So Jonash was talkin into the walkie talkie trying to contact Lara.
Great video by the way
I think the comics covered the relationship between jonah and lara. and how jonah comes from a military background and Sam showing that himiko was able to possess her
i haven't laughed as much watching a youtube video as i did this one. especially:
laras father and the supernova at 08:53 and the merchant from resident evil 4 at 9:55!
these are some great jokes. love it!
+ron burgendy Thanks Ron. Comments like yours make all of the work worth it.
11:26
dying of lung cancer, yet still continues to smoke... smart.
Only John Constantine can do that, and he's a cocky bastard who knows he's damned anyway. She was not.
Well, when it's terminal anyways, why not have some extra fun and make your miserable life shorter anyways.
Or on the other hand, maybe she was SO certain to find the source that she thought it wouldn't matter either way.
Great job guys! CinemaSins would be proud.
7:20 Lara has a handgun and has the guy in her sights, so...what the bleeping blazes is that guy doing with an ASHTRAY? Instead of, you know, tackling the thief or blocking an escape route? Was he thinking "Yeah,she is pointing a gun at him but we might need some more intimidating. How can I...aha! ASHTRAY!"
14:02 Best part of the whole video. Best part of any video ever. Fuck alternative medicine and quack nonsense. You have only gotten better and better at this and it is fantastic to watch, Dartigan.
Also, Just Cause 3.
+Cactuar512 Thanks. That was my favorite sin from the video as well.
Also in a document it says that the deathless rise from the ashes and live again. So yes they can be killed but they can come back alive
13:54 no they dont know that. the discovery that he lied to them for so many years is actually a key plot point.
You CAN use the exploding arrows for the helicopter fight. In fact its what I used for the last stage since I could not shoot the fireball in time to save my life. Kept getting disoriented and losing track of where the ball was coming from and that's if I had enough time to shoot it without the helicopter ripping me a new one as it was.
Why lara in this game sounds always like she's out of breathe or whispering ...
she has asthma kappa
Idk have you seen what she does and goes threw
+Crafting ranger *Through
+Crafting ranger I've seen many video game characters tv show characters and movie characters went through all kinds of craps ,she's like that one girl in high school drama class who tries so hard to stay in the spotlight .
its really fucking annoying. every word seems forced as f. i like camilla luddington but i just dont f**king get it
I was always wondering what happened to the merchant from Resident Evil 4. Mystery solved
I believed the connotation of immortal was "doesn't age" not "doesn't die"???????????
I agree. I remember a good example in the Prince of Persia was a good dialogue
V- why do you fight, I'm immortal
P-immortal perhaps , but not invincible
I can't lie, it is a bit of a bummer when a character you grew up with is completely renovated. I know this is a 'different take' and only the 'young Lara' but, it's the only tomb raider news we got. the reason why people loved Lara croft games is because of the cunning tomb raider. it would be nice to see that side of her.
although the game itself is very pretty, the folks who grew up with tomb raider just miss her is all.
also the whole "big tits and big lips aren't what natural women have, change it!", is like giving bayonetta a bob cut, flat shoes and emotional cutscenes every 5 minutes. loads of girls have no problem with an exaggerated character. it's a character. it's all in good fun.
Pen yu Wise words, is nice to read a critic with a nice level of politeness making a great point. I like the new version of the games but I miss the polite, sexy, sarcastic and bad ass Lara Croft. The new visuals are amazing but it seems that this time around they recycled a lot from the TR2013. It makes me happy that I can still get to play @tombraider 20 years later.
There should have been a sin for Jonah changing race.
He is clearly Samoan in the last game, now he's black. I'm I the only one who caught this?
Onimusashi85 yeah you are right
You never met a Pacific Islander, have you?
bjchit exactly
Onimusashi85 even I noticed this and I was only twelve when I played it
Hope this isn't racist, bu maybe he go a tan?
Also at the end when Jacob stabbed that soldier, I'm supposed to believe that spike on the end of the ax was strong enough to pierce modern body armor, and flesh and bone, all the way through from back to front? Plus the spike wasn't even that long.
Bullet resistant armor is weak against piercing.
"One of the animators of the game spent a lot of time animating Lara's Ass. This isn't a sin, I just want to make sure it's appreciated."LMAO
I did like the game but hell, they basically took everything from the last game without bringing anything new to the table. Which is a shame and a total waste
Nah, they changed it by making it less like a first person shooter and more like Indiana Jones. Also made a new progression system for making items and a bigger open world.
they definitely did not improve the game. i liked the whole island you can go back to a lot of places style now its way more a stupid story that you have to fo follow+ yeah very uninspired game.
Just finished RotTR. IMO it's by far not as good as the first one (loved that one). The story is worse, didn't really care for the whole crafting aspect and the open world setting.
It was fun but had horribly bland characters. Facial animation drastically improved though.
I also prefer the 2013 reboot. Had way more memorable set pieces like the fall down the rushing river.
Ugh, this game becomes so painfully predictable in such a short amount of time. Still, nice work, Dartigan!
Also, voting for Republique, simply because I already expect Just Cause 3 to have a lame-ass story.
when dude steals her book, how does he jump out of a second story window, hit the ground, get up and run away all in the 1.2 seconds it takes Laura to rush to the window because realistically he should have been laying on the pavement moaning where Laura could have taken another shot at her leisure.
-1 sin for you because you finally learned how to pronounce Lara's name after the previous "Everything wrong with: Tomb Raider"
It always bugged me how Lara had to have the Atlas rotated to a certain point in order to determine where the city was, so how did Konstantin and Ana determine its location without doing the same thing…. gah >.< This plot is swiss cheese.
+Claire Dé Lune Full of holes?
What bugged me more was Himiko in the last game .Every bad guys on the island had heavy weapons and they have been trapped for years and none of them had even tried destroying Himiko's body ? They already knew it was her souls trapped in a dead body that caused the storms and in the end Lara finished everything with a torch? I was shocked when Himiko died by that torch ...
She didn't kill her with a torch. she killed her with Himiko's general sword. Also the place she discovered the sword she come to know that himiko's body is trapped inside a decaying body because this is what general wrote on suicide note. Also she discovered many notes from Hoshi stating that Queen will transfer her soul in her body. Mathias never understood this and moto was not only doing this to escape but also want rule with the queen.
I found this very funny as I do all the other Game Sins videos but there's something worth mentioning. A small chunk of the dialogue and a bit of the plot points regarding characters and their presence will be somewhat confusing if you haven't read Dark Horse Comics' series that bridges the gap between the conclusion of the first game leading up to the sequel. It's a great story that'll keep you updated on where the overall plot is headed, plus it's being followed up by a second series that'll lead up to the third game.
Pieces of Eden everywhere.
Templars everywhere.
This is modern day Assassin's Creed.
magic artifacts and Tomb Raider existed long before Assassin's Creed was created.
11:27 It is also possible that it would freeze her body in the state it is currently in thus making her a immortal suffering from Lung Cancer instead of actually curing her.
Amazing video as always Dartigan. Was looking forward to this one and you didn't disappoint.
Why did you not make a MGS joke at the voice recording part where he screams Lara's name?
He should have made an Archer joke. I just did a minute ago.
Seriously? Why even plaster the Tomb Raider name on this game if it's not going to have anything to do with either the original series or the remake? And I don't mean in terms of a remake. This has none of the original themes. OK, yes, it has Tomb Raiding of a sort, but it lacks the strong, capable, confident protagonist that I personally grew up with. Yeah, yeah, "breasts," but at least that Lara Croft wasn't crazy, obsessive and dragged through the plot by the nose. Didn't spend the entire game getting the shit kicked out of her, whimpering all the way, either. Nor had a badger glued to her head.
Let's just say that I found this video very satisfying to watch for personal reasons, on top of being very well-written.
You guys realize this is an origin story. A person isn't just born as an ass-kicking, confident, tomb raider. This series shows what she went through to make her that way. This criticism is so brainless. There are plenty of legitimate things to critique about the game.
@@LoyaltyasHonor Preach! Brainless indeed, and it's getting really annoying.
The fringe really really irks me too. 🤣
@@LoyaltyasHonor THANK YOU
To be fair on Jonah's message, it does say an intercepted radio message right above the text telling us what Jonah was saying, which means that someone recorded what he was saying he wasn't speaking into the recorder.
The Hunger Games is officially over? WHY DO THEY NEED TO KEEP BRINGING KATNISS BACK?
Era peor en el primer título, se parecía demasiado a Jennifer Lawrence.
Fun fact: In Germany both Lara and Katniss share the same voice actor
Hahaha, that resident evil 4 merchant joke was too good... "Ahh, I'll buy it, at a high price!"
"Power to heal mortal wounds with his hands," but doesn't do it.
"He can't die," but let's his followers die.
Acts non-violently but is involved in violence.
Jacob was developed as an atheist's view of Jesus.
He doesn’t heal with his hands, he uses some sort of substance. He’s definitely not a pacifist, and he can, and does, die. Regardless, there is no “atheist’s” view of Jesus. There is a historical view and one inspired by biblical mythology.
Ya got me xD
@@alexpuntiel The 'atheist' view of Jesus is largely that he was a charismatic and successful political activist who preached tolerance, charity and relatively equal distribution of wealth. So...he was basically socialist before it was cool.
Over to you, American christian right.
@@alexpuntiel Historical view of Jesus is that he died, that the miracles he performed were caused by non-supernatural factors, and last of all, that Jesus led a peaceful political movement and was executed from Roman fears that there would be an insurrection.
The "historical" view is literally an atheist's view, and I say this as someone who has one degree in history, and was an atheist and a Christian at one point in my life.
Gitskreig No, there just simply is no atheist view just like there is no “non-astrologer” view. Atheism isn’t an ideology, thus it doesn’t have a stance on such minutiae.
They actually didn't know Jacob was the Prophet. He staged his disappearance and then returned much later with a different identity. Not sure why he did, though.
"I got a tan from that lens flare"
good one
I just wanted to say that I've been really enjoying your videos lately!
Saw other Game Sins videos and I couldn't really get into them, but your content is pretty enjoyable.
Please keep up the good work, I can't wait to see more things from you
Katniss Croft
YES!
3:06 Probably my biggest gripe with this game. Apparently Lara never told anyone about that island, which was probably one of the greatest archeological findings in human history, especially with all the crap that was in there, woudn't even need the supernatural stuff. She should have become a world famous archeologist by the ending of the first game, but in Rise she's still a nobody and the daughter of a lunatic, wtf?
Just cause 3 next. Why? Just cause.
Just no... This guy ruins game for me..
@@caleb9590 what i suggest is to watch his video after play the videogames, once you developed an idea about it
Great vid again :)
The deathless ones do not actually die though, it's stated in the game that their bodies reform after a while. So they are kinda fragile, but they keep coming back.
Just Cause. Why? ... cause just reasons.
I'm playing this game on my twitch channel and almost every scene and every area, I get Uncharted flashbacks.
I want him, to try to make a game with such good detailing. This guy have no idea of how much work it would be.
wait he appreciated her butt so ok
I think he knows how difficult it actually is but he just jokes around. By the way making a new story is probably easier than making multiple sequels because you are most likely going to leave plot holes, change the whole plot of things or make new plot holes.
the sarcasm in these videos are hilarious
So Lara still doesn't have dual pistols, well in skipping this shit
+AlucardAnimation What's worse is at the end of the 1st one she got a second pistol from Mathias. She kept the climbing ax hell she even got a second one but I guess she just threw away the pistols
+Joe M one thing that bugs me about this game is that they are so he'll be t on trying to make Lara and the bow a thing it's like no stop trying to make it happen square and fuck off lol
It's a reboot mate you can't expect everything to be the same, i didn't mind the dual pistols removed, it actually made things a bit more challenging
It's gone more survival and less puzzle. You should read some of the moaning about had "hard" the puzzles are...
Noro
Then you don't respect what Tomb Raider was about. The duel Pistols was LARA's thing. Leave the single pistols for other basic characters in other games
Just finished on pc and was waiting to watch until i did. PERFECT!!
For once, I have to add a sin. Why does Lara get along with that jesus dude so well, when he looks just like the dude in the first game who tried to rape her?
Reboot maybe? Or Lara might of forgotten idk honestly
Henry2962 whahhaha true
because a lot of shit happened on that island and he didn't even get close to raping her, he touched her inappropriately for like two seconds. it propably didn't even register
There was no mention Of The ruins on Yamatiy since Trinity sent people their to clean up the island as heard in the game. We know Trinity has ties to the island from two secret documents in 2013. They sent someone out their to research but he died. Trinity Was The one who spread the story that Lara was crazy and hid everyone else's testimonies
This game's plot has so many inconsistencies, blatant cliches it is almost painful. It was an absolute delight to see how you tear it apart.
Moreover, I've never understood how the indigenous/local people in these games have such perfect English accents. It is beyond me. ; )
Thanks for posting these so much. You're the best out there for this kind of stuff and highly underrated. You're original, funny, and your voice is nicer to listen to. Keep it up and please never stop.
the biggest sin of all: PS4 users have to wait another year for the game to come out.
+strahinjagov That's not a sin. That's a blessing. We get spared a year longer, and even then, Uncharted 4 will already be out.
it's not like xbox users can play uncharted lol
+Bianca Aletti i played both uncharted wins
AYAHAHAHAHQHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA feel the burn
As much as I want to vote for Republique & see Dartigan tackle his first indie game...it's not actually finished yet. It's an episodic game that's only up to episode 3 of 5. they have plans for the others next year (or this year, best as I can tell), so until then, Just Cause 3 it is!
Also, amazing video as usual! Glad I could help out in the stream as well! ^_^
+SlyDante Did not know that. I thought it was finished. Would not of put it up for vote had I. Though everyone wants to see JC3 so it really doesn't matter. Thanks for the heads up SlyDante.
Lol someone attended the school of business from the merchant from resident evil 4
Started watching your videos a while ago and love them. But this is your best one so far. Laughed out loud a couple of times, especially at "I got a tan from this lens flare". Keep up the stellar work, you're brilliant.
19:52 I doubt the spike on that axe is long enough to pierce all the way through that soldier's body so blood can spurt out his belly region. We can actually see the axe right thereafter. Jacob would've had to jammed the axe's blade into him as well which would make the task a lot more heavier, even if it's tipped.
6:30 Sin #42: It's a shame that sins like have a right to exist...
Dartigan, you own my sincerest respect.
ISIS owns nothing but my deepest disgust and hate...
btw on the english accent one, they do typically tend to be stronger as kids especially if that's what you are predominantly around. Like i used to have an english accent up until about age 7 but moving to that states i ended up losing it because well no one i was around had one (both parents have american accents dads military and stationed over there is how i had one) so it's plausible her accent was actually thicker as a kid ;P
Besides I guess it wasn't the same voice actress. The voice actress of the adult Lara doesn't live in the UK.
The reason why they don't mention Yamatai is because apparently Trinity shortly after Lara and the group was rescued destroyed everything. They also killed off the Solarii brotherhood. So without anything proving that island they were on was Yamatai, the media spun Lara as another crazy Croft. Also, the comic books explain why Sam wasn't here. I think the same comic book series shows how Trinity destroyed the island since you go back to it. Anyway, Lara tells a relative of Sam to keep her safe and away from Trinity.
7:26
The builder of Croft Manor (or wherever that is) used "soft glass" for all windows. If actual glass was used, the robber would be dead from multiple gunshots.
Also, the robber should be dead anyway. The entire right side of his body probably got shivved by debris if the glass was that easy to break.
Omg dartigan said my name! I know he didn't mean me but it was still cool :D
+Sophia Brandt Sophia Brandt. Now I've said it and meant it.
+Dartigan holy shit, dartigan senpai noticed me. This is amazing 😄
13:31 I don't think Jacob's poeple knew that he was immortal,I think that Jacob mentioned that he didn't tell anyone but I could be wrong
Dartigan
You might want to read the comics to fill in some of the things in the game
(and thats probably a sin to)
played this looking hard for the sins. didn't notice half of these until i watched this. very well done.
you've should have sined everytime Lara said "I've got to do this"
Or every time she sounds like she's out of breathe or whispering.
The cutscene of her walking in the rain is the follow up of the preview of the game released prior to its debut. She was wearing that outfit when she was talking with her psychiatrist - there's a possibility it wasn't raining prior to her visit - & that on her way home it began to pour.
I thought Jacob lied to his people about immortality?
He did, but they still figured it out.
Logan Productions I might have missed it, can you tell me where in the game they show that the current people knew Jacob was immortal
@@sandylong5636 I mean if you fucking age but he doesn't its pretty obvious don't you think?
Sin #2 if you've read the tie-in comics, you'd know that Sam was eventually overtaken by Himiko's soul and is now in a psych institution, and that Reyes wants nothing to do with it as she just wants to peacefully live with her daughter.
Tanausú Thank you!
That forced north-british accent deserves a thousand sins.
0:47 "Da last ceteeh osop dear, sommveah"
How did the merchant make in from Spain to Siberia though😂
Dude knows how to get around it seems haha
I liked her old face.... as in before the "fraud edition"
Shes hot here man
9:40 THE MOUNTAIN IS BACK!!
Sam is busy being kinda possessed. It was explained in a comic book, but I still 100% agree with you on that sin.
"Living embodyment of entropy" is my favorite :).
But "Rise of the Tomb Raider" is correct, the first could have been called "Becoming..."
Why the fuck is Lara still whinning every other scene?
'Whining'. One N, bro.
Gerin Sartokeesian got it, still, I miss the smug and cunning Lara.
I miss that version and mentality of Lara, too. Apparently making her vulnerable and wide eyed is what the developers and marketers wanted, as it caters to general female reactions and responses, moving her away from the "man with boobs" mentality. It's all about demographics. This game isn't marketed to a dedicated player of games like me. It's more for die hard fans, those that don't find says faction in fps, and female players.
I meant to write ...find satisfaction*
Gerin Sartokeesian So they keep thinking a woman can't be a badass, sometimes I wonder who's more retrograde, the SJWs who said past Lara was a man with boobs or people who think is a good idea to make Lara to be fragile and whiny thinking is the only realistic portrayal of a woman.
Sin 90 (13:45) is wrong. They don't know that he can't die. They don't know he's the prophet. There's a big bit about that in the end of the game.
# 36. Return of the Starwipe!
+EnvyMizuhashi I hear Disney rejected that title for the new Star Wars movie.
Im not sure where u find them but u can listen to a voice recording of Lara talking to a psychiatrist, that is being paid by Trinity the manipulate Lara, but in one it explains that Sam doesn't want anything to do with Lara and that even if Sam did her psychiatrist wouldn't let her, so that is why Sam isn't is the game and why Jonah is now like her best friend.
Also throughout the game Lara does bring up a bit of times that she doesn't want anything to happen to Jonah like how she got other people dead in the first game on the island, and that might also be why they are so close.
So after looking at this video it is a very convoluted Raiders of the Lost Ark? And this version seems to point at Lara being somehow way less powerful than in the first game. The amount of times she's knocked unconscious or comes into contact with someone who can just shoot her and be done with it....is fucking stupid. Sure I can say the same thing about Uncharted but Uncharted.
+Monty2289 The cutscenes really betray the gameplay, it's like two rival teams worked on each. In gameplay she is a gun toting, grenade-arrow shooting badass who doesn't even bat an eye to kill randomenemy#14 but then in the cutscene she's supposed to be this sweet forgiving and sympathetic girl who wants to do the right thing and offers the bad guys the "its not too late" plead.
Been waiting almost a year to watch this, finally played it on PS4.
Just Cause 3 or Republique ?... REPUBLIQUE ?! Are you f* kidding me ?
+Riley Kard Whats wrong with Republic? (Speaking as someone who has only heard of the game through the ending credits)
Mariusweeddeath That game it's just bad, nothing else to say.
Cool. Voting for it!
+Riley Kard Yeah... its pretty bad if youve seen just cause 3 and republique in a cool battle just cause would be like an avalanche cuz its f*cking AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! >:>
+Riley Kard I'll vote for Republicque just to find out what the hell it is...
Jacob can still die from being shot, hence why the Deathless can die when you shoot them.
This game is really good. 🌳
19:50 And now I'm getting flashbacks to the Skulls Parasite Unit.
My God... I think I'm done with Lara Croft. This looks horrible. I miss old Lara. She doesn't even look like her. I was hoping she would be better in this one than the last because she has had some experience now, but... She still really sucks. I feel betrayed again. I'm not giving the developers my money. It seems like they are making a movie. Not a game with all this cinematic BS. Just make a movie dammit. I don't want this "movie like experience with quick time events." I just want to play a damn game and go on an adventure. AAA games suck- save for a select few. They aren't challenging. *rant rant rant*
The 21st sin isn't one. It wasn't Ana snooping around but her brother. He was supposed to be first seen in this scene but they scratched it to try and keep the mystery and went with the intro we all know. (proof can be found on YT)
And the 39th is just because Trinity always destroys the ruins after they get their hands on the artifact. (They run on cliche Spanish inquisition logic I guess)
P.S. The deathless ones are technically immortal since they reappear from the Source every time they 'died'. They spawn from it
I would add a sin for Jacob being from Syria but looking like a white man.
The whole game I was left wondering both how the isolated group in general looked white (especially because, if memory serves, it's implied that they mixed with other non-white ethnic groups when they left Byzantium?) and how the isolated group spoke perfect English. Or English at all....
+Makayla Hansen To be fair, I don't think they are speaking english, I think it's translated for our convenience. The documents Lara finds around the village are in russian, including Jacob's as far as I recall.
+Makayla Hansen oh wait, I checked and Jacob's diaries and the others found in the village are actually in greek, which is also what the deathless spoke. Either way, I think it's possible Lara was actually speaking greek/russian with them. Nadia from the dlc was speaking in russian too, I think.
That might be, and it would make more sense that way. (I would still think the Greek they spoke would be pretty different from the Greek Lara knows, but I digress. This is a video game and I'm looking way too deep xD)
+Makayla Hansen yes, I think they would be speaking ancient greek (which makes sense for Lara to know tho), but apparently the Desthless were speaking modern greek... So that would be another sin Dartigan missed (understandable though).
11:30 - Playing Now due to Backlog: I would have added another sin to the radio communication that occurs next: "Konstantin you're needed in the Holding Cells"
No, in fact he *isn't* needed in the holding cells, there's been a prison break and about half a dozen guards are dead.
Someone else is going to get their eyes gouged out.
