A reader compares the OG Lara Croft to the main character from Stellar Blade, and hopes the new Tomb Raider will learn lessons from both.
What can EVE learn from Lara? I have to admit, I thought Stellar Blade would be the catalyst for a new GamerGate style culture war within gaming, as right wing fans tried to champion its highly sexualised portrayal of women. I’m please to see though, that this has not really been the case.
Back in the original games, which you can play via the excellent recent remaster collection, Lara is portrayed as a sort of female James Bond, always quipping and being sarcastic and just seeming to enjoy her job. Despite being made in the early 90s the Tomb Raider games are surprisingly not sexist.
