@@throughthelookingglass5973 Well today's rebooted Lara Croft IS different from the original badass one we knew first. You know the last game of the original badass was Tomb Raider Underworld.
@@gibbs615 I agree. I think the reason why people hated the Legend-Underworld Lara because it wasn't until Revelation-AOD games we got a good glimpse of Lara's personality. (AOD is a darker Lara and acts much different than her previous adventures. Core Design said so themselves. As a side note.) Some may differ, but I disagree. The first three games weren't about Lara herself as much as it was about her adventures. So it left room for interpretation who Lara is. I think seeing Lara's character being flesh-out has brought contradictions to their original idea of her. In fact, Toby Gard worked on Legend-Underworld games and got the opportunity to flesh Lara out for the first time due to technology and people are saying that his interpretation is wrong! I'll only give them this: Lara's written background has changed throughout the series.
I think this was the best Lara of the Legend Trilogy. Energetic, witted, has humor and confident. Keely Hawes will always be my favorite Lara Voice actress!
I really love this Lara. She’s a complete badass! She’s so damn confident and she definitely knows what she’s capable of. Definitely a legendary icon and a queen periodt.
1:12:43 - 1:13:45 was FIRE. Even 20 years later, this is seriously, some of the best voice acting I've ever heard in a video game (and I've been playing video games for 30 years).
F- yes! I thought I was one of the few people who thought that! Keeley Hawes was the best Lara ever, I'm sad they chose to part with her. The credit goes to the writers too, of course.
I grew up on TR1 and 2.... but this is probably my most favourite one. I remember everything about it even years later. I enjoy the new reboot games, but I can't remember their plot at all after completing them.... quite forgettable
I can kind of relate to what you thought of the rebooted games in the series. I’ve played most of the games, but the latest one was “Rise of the Tomb Raider” and “Shadow” they were my least favorites. Which was a shame, cause the scenery and gameplay was really good, but the story was very forgettable.
"- Oh look, it's Rutland! Fancy dropping down for a chat, then? - Only if you can shoot this far. - You know long distance relationships inevitably come to an end." Haha! Love that exchange.
I hate how Amanda justified everything and said that Lara's mother went where she wanted to go, even though all Lara's life, Amanda was the reason Lara's mother died. She could have easily said: "Lara, take out the sword, or it will explode!" But instead she made Lara's mom think that she was in danger. And so Amanda caused Lara's mom's death, again.
But she was in danger. If she had said that and present day Lara pulled out the sword while past Amelia didn't, then the past sword would have exploded and potentially killed them both in the past and created a paradox since of Lara got blown up as a child she couldn't be there in the future with Amanda
Thanks. I decided to play finally play Underworld, but Legend was like 12 years ago and I could barely remember the story. Just the refresher I needed.
Lara after taking one fragment of Excalibur: "King Arthur I wouldn't take Excalibur if I didn't need to do so I hope you can forgive me" Lara after getting Thor's gauntlets, belt and hammer: "time to pay natla a visit" 😩✋🏻
I like Lara’s outfit in this game instead of the previous ones. The blue looked out of place For the PS5 and PS4 I want a game bundle that includes every single tomb raider game in it. Same controls and everything I would pay top buck for it
Legend cutscenes were the best from the trilogy. They were both badass and funny. If someone knows if soundtrack from this cutscene 1:02:36 is available to download somewhere please let me know. I haven't found it anywhere and it's soooo amazing!
33:26 - 33:49 Lara: *Jumping and dodging, and shooting at the Japanese man, while trying not to get hit by the beams of the sword.* Alastair: DID YOU SEE WHAT IT CAN DO!? Lara: Yes... Alastair...I did. 😐 (I was a little confused as to why she barely cared about Alastair's death in Tomb Raider Underworld, but now I know why. 😂)
I think it’s because Alastair is book smart. Zip is street smart so it’s a good combo for Lara’s team of help! Alastair really didn’t understand the common sense of what was happening to Lara in that moment 😂😂
33:50 Does anyone know if there is a way to listen to the song that plays during this cutscene? It's chill as hell and it would sound amazing solo without them talking and the helicopter buzzing :3
i have heard to complaints: "2000's lara is so much,she has much personality compared to the 2013 version/pre-boot." "2013 is better/just as good as the original games.instead she has personality this time (with flaws)instead of some pretty posh english girl." i like both even though even though my opinion does count for,much.
What is her personality exactly? Do you think that whining and being more emotional equals having personality and this thing called "character development" which all of you seem to practically jerk off to nowadays like it's the most important thing in a video game? And do you think that being sassy, witty and confident like the old Lara is not considered a personality? I honestly feel sorry for people like you, you are being sold shit so easily, take away revealing clothes and big boobs from a character and you suddenly feel like they gained depth, you're actually the shallow one here, I can't believe they actually managed to sell you this character that they pass as "new Lara" that is as generic of a protagonist as it gets. Lara Croft is made to be an action hero, not your girl next door. Would you wanna see James Bond as a vulnerable rookie that gets tossed around too? I don't think so.
Nottylibrarian4u aww “let me write a generic ass condescending comment making sure I sound like i get laid when im actually the one who doesn’t and dismiss any criticism about a character with an argument that she is not real” shut the fuck you pathetic virgin.

Ich bin mit Legend Anniversary und Underworld aufgewachsen und es waren meiner Meinung nach die besten Tomb Raider spiele!! Die neue Reihe von 2013 usw. ist vom Spielen her nicht schlecht aber die „neue“ Lara is einfach zum kotzen. DIESE LARA IN DIESEM SPIEL IST EINFACH DIE ECHTE SIE HATTE GENUG HUMOR UND PERSÖNLICHKEIT AUCH OHNE STÄNDIGES RUMHEULEN UND SCHULDGEFÜHLE WIESO HAT MAN DAS GEÄNDERT!! Was ich auch nicht verstehe ist wieso sie immer noch nicht die Doppel Pistolen ins Spiel gebracht haben?! Wieso immer Pfeil und bogen mit ner Schrotflinte und Sturmgewehr versteh es einfach nicht! Sie hätten sie so lassen sollen wie sie ist ganz einfach!! Was ich auch sagen muss ist, ich finde die Atmosphäre in den alten Spielen viel viel besser um einiges besser die Gespräche die Cutscenes einfach alles war geil und die Musik war einfach dass beste es hat alles so viel spannender gemacht etc. Man hat es einfach richtig gefühlt irgendwie.... aber bei den neuen Teilen bin ich schlicht nur noch genervt von dieser „Art“ Lara. Für mich waren die neuen Teile einfach kein Tomb raider mehr klar zum Spielen waren sie echt super aber so als richtiger Fan der Tomb raider Reihe leider für mich persönlich eine absolute Enttäuschung 😒 aber legend, Anniversary und Underworld waren einfach die geilsten Teile. In den neuen Teilen fehlen mir auch diese Gespräche wie hier zwischen Lara, Alister und Zipp mir fehlt dass total aber des hat mir schon in Underworld gefehlt 😅 Fazit ich liebe diese Lara und ich liebe diese Spiele alles was nach Underworld kam war einfach keine Lara mehr und auch kein Tomb raider 😭
As a fan from when the games came out when I was just a little girl: I prefer the old TRI, II & II, but these aren't so bad either. Sometimes I think they talk way too much, but then Lara delivers an awesome line and I am laughing. Just don't mention AOD..... I can't comprehend how the F many think it's a masterpiece: it was the last botched game that ruined the franchise...... Everything about that game was botched: the controls in themselves were horrible.
God, I loved that Lara. Sassy, cheeky, full of sarcastic humor. I miss her
Yep, I miss that Lara as well!
Agreed, Lara used to be like James Bond, she was meant to be an action hero, not a real person.
She got the strap lmao
MyEnemy - The Pierce Brosnan Bond of Tomb Raider.
Yeah she was always cool
"I dont want to close my eyes" Even as as kid she was a badass.
"You've killed all of my men."
" *No,* I've simplified your payroll.."
Gotta admit that was a sick ass burn.
And when her mother disappeared she didn't even CRY for her
@@gibbs615 I'm glad you brought that out because the fans that only like the classic Lara claim that this Lara is an emotional wimp. Far from it!

You can hear Amanda say "PULL OUT THE SWORD." Followed by Lara saying "WHAT, NO!"
And after that you can hear Amanda saying „IT WILL EXPLODE UNLESS YOU PULL OUT THE SWORD.”
"well this is a tomb,i'll make them feel at home." Love it?!
Absolutely loved the Avalon arc so much better story than the new games I hope newer games are made in this style
"Those stodgy bastards at Oxford will have kittens when they hear of this"
Hahaha, Alister was funny as hell 😆
This is by far the best Lara for me.
I miss this Lara so much. She’s confident and funny. Reboot Lara is such a drag and annoying
Always a Ducati around when you need one...apparently

Will forever remain my favorite game
This game was such an awesome classic. I wish it had a PS4 remake.
I like today's new rebooted Lara Croft but this previous one was a real BADASS CROFT!!!
Lara after taking one fragment of Excalibur: "King Arthur I wouldn't take Excalibur if I didn't need to do so I hope you can forgive me"
Lara after getting Thor's gauntlets, belt and hammer: "time to pay natla a visit"
😩✋🏻
Lara being British obviously holds more reverence for Arthurian legends. Also, by the time of her grabbing the hammer, she's out for revenge.
i just loved that quick time events.
Cheating death once again.
"Death by irony is always painful" I have that tattooed
just played this for 1st time recently loved it best 1 in my opinion also 26:57 god damn
Right?! I'm not even a lesbian but dammmn that outfit and that walk

I would pay top buck for it
So would I! Then I could finally play Angel of Darkness.
Great idea. I thought that a while back and it still hasn’t happened yet.
Keeley hawes really brought so much life to lara with her class and hilarious british one liners.
