    Soooo turns out like an hour after publishing my video, Crystal have confirmed that the new wallpaper is not the final model for the next game. I kind of expected this due to the backlash it received, but I do think the outfit will likely remain unchanged just due to the sheer amount of times we've seen it in so many different projects. We'll just have to wait and see!

    You made a really good point there. Lara's image has remained the same in peoples heads for 25+ years.
    If something is not broken then don't fix it in my opinion.
    Classic look Lara is intemporal still feels relatable to this day (thus the remasters being a huge success) and can still be empowering as it was back then.
    Crystal Dynamics should just bring new exciting stories and preserve Lara's classic personality/looks as best as possible.
    Even the movies did a better job with her personality than the current gen games ever could.

      My hope is that the remasters are such a success that we start to see an even bigger resurgence of classic Lara beyond Crystal's control. Embracer might recognise what the people want and let classic Lara return in full force. That would be a dream!

    I know a lot of people complained about her lack of makeup but if you look at the original games, she didn’t really wear any makeup at all so that complaint just feels unnecessary?

    And just a couple days later, we have another pic of Lara in this outfit, in the TTRPG artwork :) And I think the outfit is perfectly okay, and her face in the wallpaper as well. But I also know how much artwork and promotional pics differ from the in-game models (pretty much in every TR, I think AoD Lara is the only exception), so I still take this as the general idea for how Lara might look rather than expecting it to be that exact face.

    Very excited for the future of tomb raider but wouldn’t mind if she had a friend. However I don’t like when a large part of the story revolves around finding them after they become lost or kidnapped. The parent storyline needs to go though, I personally loved the gameplay of LAU but the whole story focusing on her mother’s disappearance was slightly off-putting.

    Great video!
    I honestly really like her design here, she looks equal parts confident and sassy, but also like someone serious about the physicality of her job (I love the muscles and more tactical gear). It’s a little sexy still, but also very practical for climbing.
    The only thing I hope for is that they use Survivor Lara’s face as the base and update it. I have been used to the new Lara and I don’t want to feel like this is a completely different person, for continuity’s sake. The magic the gathering art you showed in the video is using her face from Rise, but with a braid and on the new outfit/body, and that looks perfect! Still the Lara we’ve spent so much time with since 2013, but clearly older with a much more mature and intense confidence (something as simple as giving her the arched brows again does wonders).

    • @jayoneta
      @jayoneta  10 месяцев назад +2

      Thanks! I think that's the best way forward. We can't just ignore the reboot never happened. If they want to unify the timelines then we need to showcase all parts of Lara's history, not pick and choose. That means I want to see a shred of AOD in there somewhere ;)

  • @suprgamr1722
    @suprgamr1722 10 месяцев назад +1

    In the survivor series I rlly enjoyed the stealth sections fighting enemies and would like to see that in the new game but we need more exploration puzzles, tombs and parkour like the old games. I don’t mind if she has a pony tail or a braid I think either is fine but she defo needs the dual pistols in the game as her main weapons. I’m still annoyed how they had us shoot dual pistols at the end of the first survivor game but then only use one pistol after that in the next two. I just hope in the new game we get a confident woman who is smart and witty like the old games. Maybe have her swear a bit like in the survivor if they plan to “merge” and unify Lara.

  • @SynthLizard8
    @SynthLizard8 10 месяцев назад +3

    I think the biggest thing about Lara that modern gaming, let alone Crystal Dynamics wouldn't embrace is that Lara IS a anti-hero in a sense, she has no problem leaving unarmed assailants to their death (like the traitorous guide from Last Revelations) neither killing people who are just doing their job (Guards in Area 51) and she only hunts for artifacts for sport and hoards them in her secret treasure room like some dragon on a pile of gold.
    She has to have a sharp tongue with sass and be ruthless at times, aside from that, she's pretty flat-chested, not saying she needs double-D's but she needs at least some booba on her AND I kinda wish the pistols were still modeled on the classic FN Brownings.

    • @jayoneta
      @jayoneta  10 месяцев назад +1

      There's a stat sheet that shows Lara's measurements from the original games, and it describes her bust size as 34D. The Unified Lara concept seems to be pretty accurate to that, if not a little bigger than what 34D should actually look like. She really isn't flat chested at all.

    I love the sass the classic Lara has, the confidence and everything. And before I played the Survivor Trilogy, I had some Classic fans distort the narrative on the newer games. After I played them, I understood the journey. No one is a confident sassy boss since their birth, we need to go trough life to experience and mature. I hate people gatekeeping Lara and thinking just the classics are good.
    What Toby had in mind, was the perfection of the first game, the consecutive games we had was just milking profit, with not much to add (except Last Revelation, it was also milking, but with intent), our nostalgia make the old games good. I love and apreciate the whole franchise (except the in the 2 game, Venice can f off, but maria doria is my baby). In regards to the upcoming game, people didn't even had access to a gameplay, but they were ready to bitch about "manly face lara", "oohhh the woke agenda". That was a gut wrenching moment for me, seeing people beeing completely transphobic in some coments, accusing CD of going "woke" and pushing a agenda. Lara isn't a trans woman, but imagine if you are a trans person in the fandom, and you are seeing this shit unfold with tons of people mocking lara just because in their opnion lara looks manly???
    I just hope they can offer us, fans, a game for us to explore new grounds with Lara, and for the good part of the fandom (who isn't bigots) to keep our area clean and respectful to anyone, new fans, old fans, everyone.

    • @jayoneta
      @jayoneta  10 месяцев назад

      Exactly right! The TR games have been incredible influential to members of the LGBT community and these comments just deeply disappoint me. It's not helped by a certain popular (bigot) youtuber either.
      I don't mind the reboot origin story, the first game made so much sense for Lara's character and I loved her arc in that game! I just wish she changed more over the following survivor games but she felt stuck, and I think that's why a lot of fans really start to miss her old personality.

    Ngl, when I first heard that they were unifying the timelines, I was dreading it 💀 Timeline of game events aside, it sounded like they were attempting to appease fans of all eras and I just knew it was going to be *_messy._* (Even Rhianna Pratchett was like "not sure how they'll manage that, but I'm glad to not be in charge of it." lmao)
    Also, I do feel that ever since Unified Lara began shaping up to appear more like her old-school self, there's been a revival of the Reboot Lara hate train and it's divided the fandom apart even further. But we're here now so let's see how it all goes 👀

    Honestly, I hope they bring back Lara's original relationship to her parents. She was a self-made woman who rebelled against tradition and was cast out for it, and that meant her interest in archaeology, her smarts and her skill were all on her. Having a father who did basically the same stuff with Lara following in her dad's footsteps kind of... cheapens it a bit?
    Love the design itself though! Looks like a great blend of all eras.

    Out of all of the newer arts featuring a unified Lara, I think the Magic The Gathering promotional art is my favorite look of her. Lara's facial features here match up very close to the reboot series yet she has a physique that is this cross between all three (or four, depending on who you ask) iterations of the character. It all looks fairly practical, and I enjoy the fact that they compromised on the shorts department because they could have very easily gone with pants... Though, I admit I would want an option between the two in a future game. The wallpaper shown in the video featuring a unified Lara honestly looks great in my opinion. It's not perfect, I was expecting the MTG type art to some degree. I've seen some pretty reasonable criticism of it and just uhh... A lot of insults being levied which I won't repeat here. To be vague about it, some were saying she looked like a man, her femininity was taken from her, etc. It was a very similar discourse to the example in the video featuring Alloy. Kind of made me a little disheartened to read feedback like that, lol. With how *far* graphics have advanced since the 90s, it is very difficult to mold a character's facial structure to fit in exactly how they looked nearly 3 decades ago... Especially when you consider that now, graphics are leaning more into the realistic side of things as opposed to stylized. Core Design Lara and LAU Lara were pretty stylized to say the least.
    That all said though, I don't have a preference or bias towards any iteration of Lara, I think all 3-4 (again, depending on who you ask) have respective qualities that I've always admired through the years. Tomb Raider was basically my first video game series to get into, so... Kind of wouldn't feel right to prefer one over the other. I liked how you went into detail about everything regarding the design as well as your views on the art while also remaining open-minded and explaining that you didn't want to say, "Well I think she should like x y zed." in case they used a face model for the character. From the angle I'm seeing, I still see the reboot trilogy Lara's facial structure there but I also see LAU and Core Design Lara in there, too. Oof, kinda got on a tangent here. I apologize. All in all, the new art was a welcome surprise. I'm glad that Crystal is embracing every era of Lara and that they were receptive to fan feedback regarding the face. Which like you, I can't really comment on just in case it's someone's face that was scanned in there.
    I just love all the TR goodness that's been coming out as of late, from the collabs, the remastered trilogy of the first three games, the TTRPG, and to them ramping up a potential announcement of a new game.

    I don't think it will unify the fan base as Crystal are responsible to fracturing the fan base far more than the simple reboots have. Yes, whenever there are reboots you are going to get a fracturing of a fan base as it's something that has the potential of being 100% completely different to what they originally became a fan of. What didn't help this in Tomb Raider's case was how Crystal have trashed and made digs at the Classic Core Lara and Tomb Raider ever since they gain control over the franchise.
    If Crystal had just remained silent on their hatred for the original Tomb Raider games and made a clear attempt to make it appear that they liked the originals while stating they are going in another direction for the franchise with their initial reboot, they may have avoided the fan base fracturing as bad as it has.

      the problem with melonie mac is that she just complains all the time and so does a lot of these youtubers who calls evrything woke, they don't seem to understand that survivor fans exist and that crystal can't just erase them from existence, I really want lara to get her classic persona back, but I'm also aware that no matter what crystal is always gonna push survivor lara too, to appeal to the survivor fanbase
      I think you need to make your own opinion not based on others (btw I hope this doesn't come off aggresive or mean bc it's really not what I inteded 😅)

    Look, I understand you don't want to criticize, because there might be a real person behind those pics. I agree that a lot of people are going too far with that. Still, to me the problem is in the posture, facial expressions, attitude, tone, personality etc. All of those were stylistic choices on the part of whoever drew those pictures in line with Crystal Dynamics' new vision of Lara - and all those new pics just strike me like more of the same, just repackaged into a new skin. It's like those fans who just install a high detail classic Lara mod on the Chloe Frazer from Uncharted games and call it a day - job done. Or like the Star Wars fans who think Star Wars is anything as long as you have lightsabers and AT&Ts and droids in it. Ugh... these people are fans on a very superficial level and don't seem to understand what they are fans of beyond the most superficial things.
    To me it was never just the dual pistols, French braid and her shorts that make Lara the Tomb Raider we all love. It was her personality, her playfulness, with a healthy pinch of humor and flirty femininity - all of which is lacking from those pictures. Now, just imagine if instead of that serious, angry, fierce posture we got a picture where Lara is casually posing in front of some ancient ruin with a wink on her face, showing us that she is here to have fun again - not just be all serious goody two shoes with a burden of the world on her shoulders.

      Of course I want that personality to return, if it was up to me we would just have classic Lara back in full force. It's unrealistic to expect it because Crystal is still the dev of TR and they have made it very clear what they think of classic Lara. I'd expect personality to be an evolution of the reboot but still grounded in that reboot energy. It's not what I want, but it's what I expect. I'm just celebrating the visuals at least :)

      @@jayoneta Have you ever considered not supporting Crystal Dynamics? If you want Classic Lara back, history needs to repeat itself and Crystal Dynamics should lose the TR licence. It should be given to people who actually understand Lara as a character. And that will never happen if people are happy with the little crumbs they are given.

    It’d be nice if she could also be a bit older which links to no parents mentions or ‘students’ 🤣 similar age to TR4 because it links nicely to the strong independent woman from the early games. The reboots felt like she was just sooooo childish at times that they piss me off when playing 😂 I know they are her origins but they get annoying. The remastered versions are proving people enjoy the strong side of her character, slaying through the games like the queen she is.

    There’s not one person who looked at the new model and was wowed … everybody is lying and being fake positive, and you have the same reaction (myeeeah, i don’t mind it) if you look at a picture of Lara Croft and you say you don’t mind it 🤣🤣 you failed at making TR games 🤣🤣 and are they going to make another TR 1 remake? No. We have Tomb Raider Anniversary & the remasters … oh, but we didn’t have the poorly written social commentary 🤣

    I don’t think it’s possible to reunite fans under the unification, if you right then this is classic Lara. And there’s no reboot aspect attached to it unless the necklace. With that said, they are rebooting classic Lara therefore another reboot. So all you said about time line unification is simply not the case. About the design is just boring, there’s no passion this is simply not Lara, is just a normal girl wearing Lara’s gear. About the game, it will be woke, it will have her radioing her friends girlfriend and Jonah all the time. It will be focused on story rather than gameplay and Unreal Engine will give that look every game has, realistic boring failure in gameplay and… yeah if you liked shadow then you fine but with aspects of a classic Winnie Lara. Thank you for the vídeo very nice!
