I fully expected to cringe through this one, was pained to hear a snarky pretentious 40something cisgender man make a series of great points![emoji madeline-sadeline madeline-sadeline](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/873384c3-f297-48fe-83e3-6a38bd2c332d.png)
(I have been following trilby man religiously for over a decade)
The tortureporn shit is so eyerolling. When the first Tombraider reboot dropped I figured that was that, and the torment would result in Lara becoming the relentless murder lady. Sike, two more games of torture porn.
Also I want my 35 hours back from The Last Of Us II![emoji thonk-cri thonk-cri](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/28f474dc-35e3-4579-b196-28f3105e7ee7.png)
But Tomb Raider, a series about a lady who dualwields pistols while doing backflips, must be a serious Prestige Game!
Where you also want to protect her or whatever the producer guy was saying in 2012
Every time I think about TR being ✨ prestigious ✨ I always picture the magazine cover, the one with Duke Nukem copping a feel.
There's an Easter Egg in one of the PS1/N64 Duke Nukem games where what is intended to be a horny Lara Croft calls Duke Nukem to ask him to come and bone her. In another Easter Egg Duke finds Lara's discarded tank top at a strip club and says only a huge skank would wear something like that
The 90s were very classy
I forgot the funniest part being that those third-person PS1 Duke Nukem games are huge Tomb Raider ripoffs, shamelessly copying the control scheme and gameplay
