    • @argop4518
      @argop4518 Před 4 lety +148

      They changed Lara's sidekick to show a different side of her character. That despite being highly intelligent and a total badass, she's still a woman. She gets too emotional at times and Jonah is there to knock some sense into her. I actually love the way Jonah talk to her like she's his bratty little sister. He's the male figure she needs especially after Roth's gone.

    • @jackschwartz1750

      Basically, part of Himiko’s soul stuck with Sam, where the two would constantly battle. Eventually, Himiko took over after Sam was institutionalized for rash behavior, where Himiko killed a nurse and escaped. Trinity then tracked her down, but Lara got to her first. Lara then trapped Himiko’s soul in a special mirror (don’t remember the name) and I’m pretty sure Sam died from the whole ordeal.

      It would contradict the stealth element of the game. Besides, nobody actually does that. It is impractical and an inefficient way to kill especially where ammo is scarce. Good shooters fire with two hands 98% of the time in any case, for stability and control. Maybe it's just me, but I don't want this new Lara to be another Hollywood cliche.

      the one in the reboot of 2013, looked actually British this time while looking similar to the iconic Lara Croft from the Legend timeline/trilogy
      the covert art for Rise of the Tomb Raider showed that same version only older, more mature and serious looking, she looked STUNNING and badass
      ...then the Rise and Shadow sequels came out and they turned her into some Paki look-alike while still promoting the game with the old cover(scummy marketting) and it wasn't until much later that they changed it to look like the in game character(sort of since they still made it look better than the actual in-game character) and the old wallpapers/promo covert art are still floating around the internet now but they are hard to find lmao

      If they are going to link this trilogy with the Legends one, idk what they're gonna do, they're gonna have to update these older games with a new look(the 2013 DE look) and then stick to it to for the newer games.

      Shadow was my fav! I feel like there was a lot to explore and find, which was part of the challenge. While completing these challenges ends up rewarding you with tools to help you advance in the game. I loved the different areas with locals/merchants to talk to and find hidden areas on the map. The style of this was a little lighter to me than the other 2, which is what reminds me of the original series. There seemed to be alot more challenge tombs as well! I'll admit I found there to be a lack of combat challenges but the entirety of the game was beautiful and fun to play.

Also much more interaction with the nature, which gives it a more mysterious and isolated feeling compared to 2013 and Rise (I couldn't help to feel I was playing Uncharted for the most part with those two). I liked those too, but the action was so over the top that I found myself rolling my eyes quite often while playing. It's just a matter of taste, but I prefer when it gets closer to the feeling of the original games, and Shadow provided exactly that for me (not fully, but close enough).
