The new complaint I keep hearing is, "It doesn't address the issue." Because apparently just showing the ugliness isn't enough, you must be fed some ham-fisted moral or get to fix all the bad things in the world.
I don't particularly like qtes. Except one or two that have good scenes. But all added together they make like 5 minutes of total gameplay. Non issue imo.
It doesn't have to suggest something otherwise. In fact I find it quiet boring if it did. Heroism and empathy does not need the justification of sexual attraction. Which is why even according to the author it was written as a friendship, it is the fans that decide it needs that soap opera...
I hope you didn't get that suggestion from my comment. Of course it's a father figure/mentor relationship.
That's the problem with fandoms. They see any close relationship (and god forbid it involves a hand touch) and they go... hmmm... ^_^ lurve...:excited:
Game doesn't have any romance except:
Game does have a problem with supporting characters. But that's ok because they are kind of a background for Lara's journey.
Interesting read. But it pretty much says it's all in the fans' imagination. And outside of her private thoughts only boyfriends were apparently on the table. Who knows...
lol. The shipping conventions of the interwebs...
No, there was some journal entry about them parting with guys or something I can't remember exactly. Unless they are into that... together. :D
It doesn't play like the old TRs. For better or worse the gameplay is in line with what you'd expect from a modern game. There is no more clunkiness of the old controls or the trial and error platforming. Most of the challenge comes from combat and if you can play any modern 1st/3rd person...
I wouldn't even say outraged. By embracing the depiction of the racist beliefs of those times it only mocks them because of how absurd it makes them look.
I've finished it. Here is advice: whatever you do... DO NOT get the plot spoiled for you. Whatever you'll think of it, trust me, you want to let it hit you on its own terms.
