I think her boobs are still smaller than the original but they are firmly there this time. Not holding my breath until it’s released. Story could be all “respect my culture” shit again.
Yeah I agree, boobs need to be big enough to store an extra mag to be acceptable!
I wonder if polys played at least some role in larger boob sizes in the earlier 3D days.
IE, If you need to keep your polycount ridiculously low but you want to make them at least reasonably visible, then it might be easier to just make them a little larger (since it's mainly detail that leads to a higher polycount, not actual dimensional size).
I might be totally wrong though.
Back on the day of lesser graphics, maybe. But with old school advertising for the series focusing on Laura having Capitol J Jugs, her boobs became meme tier and thus needed or it isn't 'authentic.'
Oh yeah, I only would've applied that thought to 3D from the late 90's. Anything past then is fair game, the poly hit isn't going to be substantial enough to be a serious problem unless someone has a legendary level of incompetence.
As for modern Lara, there's at least a bare minimum of expectation on that size chart since the standard was already set and utilized in future titles well into the early 2000's.
Jesus Christ this thread is full of gooners lol
So your position is that you prefer ugly, mannish women have prevalence in games instead?
Guy is a troll. Not worth your time
Hmm…big stupid bimbo with DDD boobs flopping around or ugly manly women? Tough choice!
Oh if only if only those weren’t the only two options! Why are there only two options of women???? UGH WHAT A DILEMMA!!!
Too bad, because they are. You either get attractive women or unattractive women, that is the way this has worked out. Take your pick.
I shouldn't have bothered saying take your pick because I already know what you've chosen anyway.
We weren’t talking “attractive v unattractive.” I’m making fun of the gooners in this thread who are complaining that her boobs need to be “big enough to store another magazine.”
Try and keep up, son. It’s a big world, lotta words, it helps to actually understand them.
You’re in the wrong neighborhood, faggot
Guy is a troll. Or at least he comes off that way
Aw...little guy got his feelings hurt.
Yes, we are. Despite your attempts at obfuscation.
The reason you replied to my comment was because I was making fun of gooners. The reason I was making fun of gooners is because of how many people in this thread were saying “hurr sure her boobs aren’t big enough.”
That’s what I was talking about. You came in all huffy about “attractive v unattractive.”
So, I’m gonna stick with what my original point was, and say that there are more than two options between “woman with huge boobs” and “woman who looks ugly.”
Don’t be retarded, friend. It’s not a good look for you. If you reply with more retardation I’ll just let you play with your blocks.
You're speaking to a paid shill.

Man if I cared this much about a random forum user to the point of saving links from other sites and jumping into convos I wasn’t part of to “warn” others I’d probably kill myself.
Well what would be a good alternative option then?
Sassy tech support ai that is a disembodied voice for most of the game?
Blue skinned alien scientist who you can have an optional romance with?
Plucky brown lady who helps her theoretical physicist friend in a hazmat suit escape an alien controlled city?
Nah, they're all goon bait. Obviously having your female characters actually look female means it's softcore pornography.
Woman with normal proportions and a normal appearance. She can even still be attractive. I’m just laughing at how many guys here are demanding she has DDD tits and even calling it disrespectful otherwise.
This isn’t that difficult man lol you don’t have to make her an alien.
Christ you really are retarded.
Except her tits were bigger in the og games.
I guess fans of the character's original design wanting said original design to be kept makes them retards?
Yeah and you know what else? Her forehead was bigger. And her lips were bigger. And her neck was shorter. And her feet were smaller. And her arms were thicker. It’s a character redesign bud. You only seem to care about one part of it though. You know why?
Gooner brain
better a gooner than a pooner
I'd rather be neither, personally. You do you though!
stop making lazy anti-male arguments
Sorry, it’s anti male to not be a pooner? Interesting
no, calling men gooners for wanting attractive characters in games is a lazy anti-male leftshit argument
Gooners for saying shit like “she’s hot but her boobs need to be bigger.” It doesn’t add anything to the game. It’s just a gooners want
Who else gives a shit about Lara Croft? The game pretty much solely continues to exist because of them.
And don't get me started on Marvel Rivals. Forced marriage propaganda cutscenes interspersed with Swimsuit Summer events. I'm not joking about that.
Clearly not, since earlier editions have sold well despite “her boobs not being as big”
They haven't sold well, that's why Embracer sold off the IP and eventually the developer.
At this point, these games should just go the Dead or Alive route. Make dogshit with jiggle physics.
Also, the 2013 game sold 11 million units. As of 2021, the whole series has sold over 80 million.
But yeah, I guess that’s “not selling well” lol
Yeah good idea. Appeal only to gooners and nobody else.
How dare men fantasize about a world where women aren't insufferable harpies!
It's Chinese propaganda. Pure and simple. Shat out by NetEase Corporation.
And games like Medal of Honor and the actually good Call of Duty games were military propaganda shat out by EA and Activision. Didn't stop me and countless other dudes from enjoying them.

Agreed!
Well, at the very least, I have far more hope for this Lara Croft than the upcoming movie by Phoebe Waller-Bridge (who already wrecked the Indiana Jones franchise), featuring Sophie Turner (Sansa from GoT) as Lara.
Fucking Sophie Turner as Lara Croft.
Lmao
Careful. She'll glare at you like an 8-year-old child who you refused to buy ice cream for.
To be fair now that she hagmaxxed her face like seemingly every female Hollywood celeb that might actually be quite terrifying.
She can't be that bad, she was actually decent good loo... Good Lord, she didn't hit The Wall, The Wall sought her out to get the first punch in.
Just did an image search because I kind of forgot what she looked like.
Ozempic hollowed out walking corpse look with liberal usage of botox.
No thanks. No amount of AI post processing is going to make any stunts look believable.
Jfc what happened
Insecurity leading to bad plastic surgery.
On a related note: who's idea was it that buccal fat (the fat in your cheeks that makes them round) is unattractive?
Reeks of Weinstein et al. And probably the same synagogue if I had to guess.
From the very first moment I ever saw her in GoT, I thought she was unattractive. She is utterly unqualified to play Lara Croft. This will be a complete flop, just like everything else Phoebe Waller-Bridges touches.
Well, at least the video game has potential. I'll be paying some attention to that, if not the rest.
Not bad compared to most modern videogame portrayals, but that's a low bar. She's a little more jacked than my beauty ideal but at least that makes way more thematic sense than being a landwhale, and she still has an actually good looking face.
Me: why would this be ratio'd
Nevermind, carry on.
Don't make me tap the sign
Eh. I'm going to wait until I see a few streams of normal(ish) people playing it. It's Amazon Game Studios so I'm going to assume that it's going to be liberally sprinkled with "the message".
*Lara
It is going to be by a junior team. There have been a few games like this.
I'm surprised I'm the first one to mention this here but... I kind of agree with the people who think she looks ambiguously... not white? From the screenshot where she's looking up, her forehead looks a little short and her face looks somewhat round.
She's pretty and they seem to be trying to meet people halfway, and maybe that's just a weird screenshot... but she kind of looks Indian or some flavor of Hispanic in that one?
I don't know, I hope I'm just seeing things.
Wonder if the poor thing's been injected with depression juice again.
Her breasts are smaller than past designs, but they're at least prominent and she's pretty, so she's 50x better than the other female characters that the industry vomits out these days. A step in the right direction, to be sure.
Be careful. There are 2 tomb raider games that will come. One made by flying wild hog (the one with eh attractive Lara) And another made by Crystal Dynamics (The one with the flat Lara)
whats the story? evil british people?
Honestly, I was ready to be disappointed but I think it looks good and I'm kinda hyped for the remake of the OG
