Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Sure, I love the reboot TR trilogy. I'm down for more adventures of mass murderer Lara Croft.
only now started? man that will be long to wait... u5 is great but not sure about U5 and forest stuff with all those small details on grass and stuff... maybe they will add some of their tech there as well ...
and i would need at least 1 of those every year. like TR, uncharted style and AC and can be more of them. but every year... not every 5-6 years...

Why? You don't want her to be on the project for 9 months, be an insufferable bitch to everyone around her, cry in her office for hours because she wasn't getting her way, make everything about her but claim it was a team effort, complain about Lara having curves and screaming "BIG OL TIDDIES" around the office to make people uncomfortable until she gets yelled at, turn Lara into a lesbian in her own head which everyone else rejects, and then cry misogyny over the whole thing only to immediately get called out by a former female co-worker that she was actually the problem?

Lara is canonically a man who identifies as a woman.
Also I came up with the name Lara.

Head-hunted for making an open-world Tomb Raider game.

For his sake, I hope he gets along better with this crowd of developers than he did the last one. He didn't adapt very well to his team being over 100 people at Bend. Crystal Dynamics is over 300, I think.

^that plastic lara with pointy tits and ginormous boobs look so fake and ridiculous and only good for costplay
Aint no way that outfit is comfortable for survival in the jungle
The curent crystal dynamics lara are far superior to that
They just need to improve the graphics for the next game

It wasn't that if you knew what happened. It was Jeff and John GARVIN and to an extent
davidjaffe
are cut from a different cloth creative wise. How it use to be back in the early days of development where one guy had the vision and others worked off of that vision. Now because games are way more complex in terms of animations systems, rigging, scripting, game mechanics itself, physics ect. You have to be able to collaborate since now your going to be making larger projects and working with people who are doing more now.Jeff, John, Jaffe are super talented guys. It's just not everyone gells with everyone.
So Hoping he brings the heat to Crystal Dynamics.

I know what happened. He mentioned it himself. To David Jaffe and Colin Moriarty. What you described is pretty much exactly what I said he had an issue with. He couldn't adapt to having a bigger team. It required more hands off and collaboration as opposed to smaller teams where tighter control by the directors is possible without bogging down the process. He even mentioned to Jaffe not caring much for how the younger developers he worked with felt about the process he and Garvin had. I don't doubt that there is talent among them but I also see guys who have trouble hanging in the big AAA development scene today. Because these aren't teams of tens anymore. These are now teams of hundreds. In some cases many hundreds. In Crystal Dynamics' case, it's almost 3 times the number of people Bend had by the end of Days Gone's development. It was, among some other reasons, that creative struggle between how they used to do it and how it needed to be done that caused Days Gone to take as long as it did and turned out the way it did. He saw that in himself. He was able to admit his own shortcomings in that regard. And I do feel for the guy because the studio director apparently made him feel like a failure, even though Days Gone sold very well. Even going as far as to deny the sequel he wanted to work on. I hope he finds his footing at Crystal Dynamics. I think he tried moving on to Netherrealm Studios after he left Bend but he didn't last long there.It wasn't that if you knew what happened. It was Jeff and John GARVIN and to an extent

The stories are usually dumb and take themselves too seriously, and neo-Lara is a whining brat. If they fix those things they'll have a great game on their hands, because the neo-Raider games already have a really solid gameplay loop as a foundation.

i really liked the 2012 reboot game,its an awesome action game(that only lacked enemy variety) but much less the 2 sequels,combat was downgraded, more filler areas and annoying mechanics. i wonder what they are gonna do with the next one

What I found hilarious was the response to Lara's character among the ResetEra types after 3 games. They went from praising the fact that she was "more appropriately proportioned" to eventually complaining that her character was bland and they would rather have had "sexy Lara" back because she was a more interesting character. Well yeah, no shit. You wanted a character modeled after what you think you believe is ideal and then you hopefully realized how fucking boring you are yourself.

The new game is probably going to just be an Uncharted-clone with NFTs (at best) and nothing more. It's gonna cater to the casualest of the casual gamers. The first Tomb Raider games were amazing gameplay-games.
But even back then, the huge success and the following Lara Croft cult/craziness instantly influenced the design concept for its sequel, Tomb Raider II, in a very bad way, trading exporation and isolation and subtle tension for more cinematic-like experiences and shoot-outs with humans and stuff. The dev-team was proably pressured by higher ups to cater to a larger crowd at this point.
It took Core Design another misstep (Tomb Raider 3) to realize how badly they've deviated from Tomb Raider's "core design" and truly went back to the roots with Tomb Raider IV (probably the last good Tomb Raider).

They're criticizing the character models, not the console. Plus the latest Tomb Raider trilogy is on Playstation too so it doesn't make since for anyone to start a console war over the franchise.
I agree with your take about new Lara though. The amazing level design and gameplay is what defined old Tomb Raider for me, not Lara or the sexiness. Focusing on Lara and her story is what got us in this mess in the first place.
I hope so, dirty slut the way it should be, want quick time events were she sucks pure helm.Leaked screenshots

Hopefully we get to the point in this one where she actually starts shooting dinosaurs.
