Is lara ever gonna be in a bikini

[Cook]

I think it's funny that the DLC for the last game was all "Buy clothes that make Lara...WARMER!", while the older games preceding it were like "ok you beat the game, here's the british flag bikini, you perv, if you want the gold bikini beat it on legend hard"

It's like they're catering to a different audience right now.... like for women... I mean dongemmewrong, dassa good thing. girls need their games too, and I wish somebody would just come in here and say "yes, lara has changed. We're all girls on this here forum, so either buy the super warm winter pack DLC or begone!"

lara croft has always been known for who she was and what the game was about. it was about exploration, platforming, tomb raiding, solving puzzles and diving underwater to find a secret passage that leads to a secret undiscovered area...

And that's why it just doesn't matter if she has pornstar qualities, or just natural human looks.
In the more mature and realistic reboot i would certainly prefer the latter.

Rhianna Pratchett and Crystal Dynamics decided Lara Croft is meant to please the feminists that is no longer about adventure and she needs to be ashamed of her body and her sexuality as well as it's about male hatred and killing all the men brutally.

Okay yeah, they keep shrinking Lara's tits and making her more of a plain looking girl to try and attract those types of girls, but where do you get her being ashamed of her body and sexuality from? You might be referring to how Pratchett originally wanted Lara and Sam to be lovers concering her sexuality, but that never made it into the game. Or the male hatred? And so what she was killing guys, she was stranded on an island where they would sacrifice all the females, so of course it would be a sausage fest.

she's not really plain looking girl. in fact she is quite pretty and slim. if that's their intention, why not go all the way in? she shouldn't be pretty and she shouldn't be slim. why? god forbids heroine should not be pretty and slim. it's the same argument about godly heroine is nothing to do with breast.

i dont think lara is ashamed of her body or sexuality. it's what crystal dynamics and rhianna pratchett think so.

it does matter because that was not who she was. do you change michael jackson to become white if 1% minority of racist hate blacks? because that is not who michael jackson was.

Because if a girl has large tits that obviously means she's a porn star, a freak of nature, unrealistic, or not even real going by what you just said.
I wish this "games must be mature and gritty" meme would die already. If you personally like it that's good, but not every single game series needs that especially if they were originally meant to be light hearted and kind of out there.

Just wait for mods to come out that makes her wear a bikini. Hell, you can probably mod her to look completely nude if you're into that kind of stuff.

Good point there, and bad explanation from my side. Let me elaborate:

I don't think it has anything to do with "games must be mature and gritty", they certainly don't have to be, but this one kinda is, and so should it's content. We get to play a younger and more fragile version of the heroine.
The old Lara with rather fancy body measurements, running around in siberia in a tanktop and hotpants, just doesn't make a lot of sense in a dark, gritty and very bloody reboot.

People want realism, and immersion, not "random sexy outfit to please rule 34". Personally i couldn't care less what she wears, as long as it makes sense.

I doubt that, for the last game only nude retextures that left a lot to be desired were possible, because for one thing Lara's mesh from the waist down is made entirely out of her clothing so any retextures would look like nude colored baggy pants, same general idea for the bra straps and outline of her ♥♥♥♥. The other thing is that people are still trying to figure out how to replace meshes for that game. The issue there was that the file format Crystal Dynamics used to store the 3d data and other game assets is incredibly obfuscated with internal files being linked to links being linked to other links in one huge mind numbing seemingly endless web inside of it. Most likely done to deter any modding.

i mean why not just search for rule 34?

[tm0Lif3]

people still failed to understand and comprehend what Crystal Dynamics has done. they has done GREAT damage to the franchise. it is nothing about rule 34 nor porn. don't you think if people want porn there are much better and alot more out in the internet?

this is not the Lara Croft and Tomb Raider it used to be. they simply ruined it to please the feminist.

Playing devil's advocate: then why do they keep shrinking Lara's cup size down? If it had to do with realism they would stick with one size and not give her magical baloon breasts.
