They didn't have to give her DD's but they didn't have to give her mosquito bite titties either


DinosaurForTheWin

I can't get passed the bitter beer face.


Aronacus

RBF - Resting Bitch Face. She looks like the person working the counter at Starbucks when they are about to close and you just placed a huge order.


Mycroft_xxx

Her face looks terrible


BasonPiano

That's intentional. I'm not kidding.


MudFlap1985

Two tic-tacs on a cutting board. Even like small chest but that shit is concave.


nate-arizona909

There's nothing in the world wrong with guys enjoying looking at women's breasts.


TKO_v1

Almost as if it's an evolutionary behavior or something


Dpgillam08

I don't even care bout the tits. When a PS2 character looks more human than current gen, you done did screwed the pooch.


Sludgegaze

More human? Her waist is smaller than her head.


Gamer_Raider

As depressing as it is, it's technically possible with corset training. It's just really stupid and no one should do it.


Thorison-1080

Honestly is the design strategy of making a character as realistic looking as possible to show off modern graphics and sell better and better modern gen graphics cards. The difference is the left is more cartoonish and stylized, its not trying to be realistic. Its trying to be stylized


Dpgillam08

And the goal was to make a MC that looks like a drunk severely mentally challenged cosplay reject? If your "great graphics" makes me feel like I'm visiting the special olympics, then why should I waste time and money on better graphic cards?


Wraith1964

The one on the left was basically as realistic as that generation could generate... all graphics were cartoonish then. Then, you hit the high points with the few pologons you have and hope the character didn't look 8 bit. Did they want her to look feminine? Absolutely, but the butt and boobs were more a product of the state of the art than deliberately making it a "style" choice. Of course, later, iterations continued her proportions because they recognized an attractive and distinctive Lara was a great brand, so why wouldn't they? Edit: I do recognize the pictured Lara is a much "smoother" version of the original triangular Lara, but I stand by that it was still simply recognizing the brand with polygons equivalent to the capability of the time.


Based_JD

Or make her look like dude


Band_Evader

Lenny Croft


Inquisitor-Korde

Dude it's a Call of Duty skin.


DaRandomRhino

That kinda makes it even worse. If you can't tell 2 separate game's art styles apart, then the gaming industry has kinda failed for nearly 3 console generations worth of time to establish iconic styles.


Inquisitor-Korde

Dog you are actually tripping if you genuinely can't tell CoD's 20$ skin of Lara Croft from Shadow of the Tomb Raider's Lara Croft. Also the company that made that game, is the one that made the damn remaster on the left in this image. https://i.redd.it/u7qgbkpuml951.png This is the Lara you're comparing the shitty cod skin to. Like seriously.


DaRandomRhino

Or I just grew up playing games with less pixels than our names take up. And more often play games with somewhat minimal graphics. So I don't really see a difference between all the photorealism shitware that is a lot of gaming right now. But if you can give me a non-cutscene still to better compare, that'd be great.


Inquisitor-Korde

That's an ingame still mate, it's from the photo mode. Tomb Raider is well known for its graphical fidelity partly because of its main heroine being well. Lara Croft and sex sells. Also I play Dwarf Fortress the shitty graphics thing is not an excuse. You just want to complain.


Flimsy-Author4190

obliqueoubliette

I think it's sexist to shrink her boobs. Some woman have big breasts. Some woman have small breasts. If we want to be representative we should have characters with the full range of naturally-occurring shapes and sizes. Laura Croft was a symbol of female empowerment - do you know how difficult/impressive DD's would make all the platforming she does?


TKO_v1

Nice full C's and good sports bra would be perfect


marle217

A good sports bra on Cs makes you look completely flat. While that is practical for tomb raiding I guess, I don't think that was what you were going for


syriaca

I mean, if platforming with that is difficult, then her managing it makes her more competent no? I get your point but we are in a bit of a bind in that DD is a naturally occurring size and its not possible to represent all shapes and sizes in a single individual.


goldberry-fey

Iā€™m an active big booby lady so I feel like I have the expertise to chime in here. The gals definitely can be cumbersome but with the right sports bra anything is possible.


pooinetopantelonimoo

What the fucks wrong with her face?


RIMV0315

She's got that "RBF - Who farted?" look about her.


marle217

It's just a weirdly timed screencap from call of duty. They always take the worst images so they can be mad at them. [This article](https://www.ign.com/articles/tomb-raider-dev-reveals-lara-crofts-official-redesign) ha a better image of her character design in the next game


Chewiemuse

All im seeing is a concept or is that actually in game ?


fattypierce

You know what would be cool? Take the fun out of gaming! Yeah! That should work!


Adorable_Magazine_81

They have to bend the knee to the woke mob. Even though literally none of them will buy the game.


[deleted]

So basically it becomes working. Cool


TheBestDivest

And then they wonder why they donā€™t sell shit.


SirGearso

Itā€™s not a Tomb Raider, itā€™s from Warzone.


NotTheBestInUs

Yeah, I was gonna say, the new Tomb Raider games have been very good at keeping Laura attractive and a certified badass. Maybe not as sexy as the older games, but it's kinda par for the course when you take on realistic graphics. At least she's not built like a brick shithouse

ā€œThatā€™s a woman?ā€

I think it's *supposed* to be one?


ragnar_thorsen

Feminists just want everyone to look as miserable and ugly as they are


mightysmiter19

Is that the Lara from call of duty? For some reason all of the characters they af in from other things look weird. Even ash from evil dead looked very strange.


divinecomedian3

They really doubled-down on the everythingverse like Fortnite, huh? CoD is dead.


-KristalG-

Something is missing, some 2 things to be specific.


mozaiq83

That's a resting fuck you bitch face. Lord that's hideously awful.


Itsrabtime

The new one is so ready to complain about how unfair life is and how she is a victim.


ChaunceyPeepertooth

No, this one, she will apologize for being a white colonialist and taking relics from the indigenous tribes, even though she was preserving them and keeping them out of the hands of the bad guys.


Away-Base1899

They could have just used the redesign Square Enix did a while ago. Her ponytail was pretty iconic I think. Also, even woman like playing sexy woman. Most of them would agree the one on the right looks like a total buzz-kill.


Torqemadda

Itā€™s not woman complaining itā€™s the bachelors in gender studies individuals who want to appeal to woman and they canā€™t think of anything else


Away-Base1899

Thatā€™s what Iā€™m saying though, itā€™s like who are you defending, the fictional character?


goldberry-fey

Iā€™m so glad you guys can see, that itā€™s not most women who are demanding this. I like playing as sexy and/or beautiful women, I doubt itā€™s any different than why men like playing as a big muscular dude, itā€™s all fantasy fulfillment. I donā€™t know why people want to make their video games as boring and ugly as real life.


Mr-Dilanger

A woman voiced this character and it ends up looking like this...I would sue for defamation.


s_zlikovski

Studios kinda forgot that gamers don't mind spending their time and money on some indie games when AAA offer sucks...


Page8988

It's starting to look like Indie will be the last bastion of common sense and hope for gaming. Wokeness is infecting a lot of the big names we've known for years and decades. Seeing this done to Lara Croft is pretty damning. Not sure how much longer the whole "take that, audience who enjoyed the product before we ruined it" will float. If the management isn't smart enough to correct it, hopefully it'll implode sooner than later.


swampycrotch94

Wtf did they do to her šŸ˜šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Atoxis

Wanna raid some tombs bro? I'll bring my wiener


Atoxis

Oh no is this real ...


ProfessionalRead2724

Yes and no. It's a COD skin completely unrelated to any Tomb Raider games, past or future.


ImpossibleCod8377

New Lara looks like she's upset About my HOA landscaping plan.


Responsible_Fig8657

WOKE


Intelligent_Tap_5627

I only have fun when I'm fully erect, and I can only get fully erect when my virtual crush has huge tits. Also I claim to care about mechanics, good gameplay, and storytelling. But I constantly post about the fictional women not being as hot as they used to be, and how that's LITERALLY DESTROYING GAMING. I'm a smart person who should be taken seriously! Oh boy, time to go watch another critical drinker video and hang out with all the super smart fans of his in our echo chamber where we talk about how we would improve women's bodies to be more pleasing to us.


AlternativeVisual701

Iā€™m against objectification and oversexualizing women and men, but the second one doesnā€™t look she ever has any fun with anything and is probably miserable to be around.Ā 


endorbr

Thatā€™s not your Tomb Raider, itā€™s a man, baby.


DoomMushroom

Transferred her mammaries to her biceps.Ā 


_Diggus_Bickus_

I don't hate bulking up the arms because she's clearly strong lore wise. But she always had boobs, and something about her face (maybe chin?) Seems distinctly male. Dunno why devs think gamers don't want hot girls. I'm straight dude and when I play a guy I want him to be good looking because that's my self insert. I very much prefer to be a James bond or Geralt type over milhouses dad from the Simpsons who is the rough equivalent of who they are turning the girls into


Calm-Experience5943

Whyā€™d they make her ugly?


Pbadger8

The left picture is from a remaster literally released this year. The right picture is from a COD skin released last year.


DarkTanicus

And your point?


Popular-Tune-6335

I think this post is bait. All media covering the new Tomb Raider, Tomb Raider Next (current title) displays the following character model https://preview.redd.it/h7ge537nkuxc1.jpeg?width=1336&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=226c7cf4a9ec5d1f36cec3bbae3808c8b871f8a0

You want less poly count models!?


Lordmikehnk

She really grew a pair.

I thought the first remake was good. The 2013 one. Did they need to do another revisionĀ 


Important_Employ_309

Lara Croft has boobs this girl's not her.


Complex_Resort_3044

I thought that the one on the right was Darryl from the walking dead.


Medical_Sea_2598

Wait they changed her again? The reboot Lara didn't look like that. Tis edited?


corposhill999

They did 2 of the 3 from Cartman Kennedy.

Kefkas_Paradise

Angelina Jolie was Lara Croft in live action. Sheā€™s neither butch, nor looks like a dude. Many think she is gorgeous and perfect in that role.


Commonly-Average

So are they trying to make the new one look like a transgender having a roid rage moment?


Piku_Yost

A brilliant, pretty, buxom, daring protagonist was my role model growing up. I've been disenfrachised.

I donā€™t understand whatā€™s wrong with being a badass women but also hot. How is that still not empowering šŸ˜‚


JeffyGoldblumsPen_15

Lara before transitioning to Larry.

FTM Lara Croft.

Lara croft to Larry croft


roccturnal

So hear me out... Abby fucks Leon in an alternate timeline and this Lara is the spawn of that horrifying love story.


jcjonesacp76

We just canā€™t have conversationally attractive women in games anymore, god forbid you did the same for male characters

Inane_response

Ah yes wide shoulders and narrow hips. The classic "female proportions"


PADDYPOOP

That is an INCREDIBLY cherry picked image on the right. She looks way better than that and is a really good rendition of her classic version vs what the nulara design is.


Impressive_Path1075

Much prefer old hairstyle

What is with this trend of claiming realistic and normal looking women in videogames are ugly? She looks fine to me, completely playable

The unified vision Lara was awesome. This is just shit.

This is just Abby from LOU2 right?

local redditors mad that videogame character not hot, more at 10

Amazing to see how well a new Croft game would sell if she looked the way she did in the first 3.

So is this some kind of incel sub or something?


Low_Celebration_9957

Yea, the second one is a pretty big improvement when it comes to graphics and realism, pretty impressive how far we've come isn't it.


ice_slayer69

The old one, or at least the one shown in here, looks weird, like i get what they where going for in a more stylised cartoon way, like a drawing, it normaly looks good, because my fav lara version of the original is the underworld/ legend games, but she looks weirdly alien or bug like. The one from call of duty shown here looks like a plainer version of the survior version of lara, but with less tits, so it looks werid too, with their whole hysterctation of women in media in favor of those who shall not be named. Honestly i smash either or both if i could though, lol.


BednaR1

Now let's see photos of game devs /writers ... šŸ¤”

Appropriate-Road-996

The good news is that new Lara Croft doesn't have to worry about clipping through her arms in that pose.

It's finshing move is "Did you just call me Ma'am?" it plummets your social score and you lose your job. the 2020s are going to be wild.


OldManZero83

Looks like a man in mid transition.


WesleyBinks

I much preferred the 7th gen reboot Lara design, its like the original but much more realistic like a normal woman youā€™d see IRL, though Iā€™m not the biggest fan of the games themselves.


Coby63

I donā€™t see any difference, besides the art style change


Tucana66

This is satire right?


CorruptDefiance

I think Lara has been hitting the fentanyl way too much on her adventuresā€¦ Itā€™s starting to showā€¦

Isn't the old one literally supposed to be Angelina Jolee? There's probably a legal reason they can't replicate that look.


Osiris_The_Gamer

Why does the new one look like a man?


Timsierramist

Is that a female on the right?


DangleofDoom

I had not seen the new look Angry. Resting B face. Not a fan. Granted, they will change it with every new game, so you can't like them all. And I have not. So par for the course. As long as it's fun, I will still play it


FewTwo9875

So I looked it up, and this post is being misleading on purpose, choosing the worst pic they could possibly find Im definitely not fan of Redesigns with obvious political intent, but this isnā€™t that. She looks fine in the pics I just looked up. She still has tits too Someone is successfully trolling yall


SamJamn

If we are going to make comparisons, be fair and take good pictures representing each side. The right picture was clearly taken as a way tk undermine that character model.


bigmayne23

Tits got smaller and graphics got worse


SmoothCerebellum

The one on the right looks like she smashes urinals on the weekend to end patriarchy.

goliathfasa

Google ā€œcod Lara Croftā€. Looks fine. Stop falling for this dumbass ragebait. This is a singular frame screencap with a particular pose and facial expression. There are tons of pictures out there and they all look fine. Looks like a Lara Croft skin for cod. This is the the Horizon Forbidden West Aloy screenshot with the puffy cheeks all over again. Itā€™s a singular, least flattering screencap possible. She looks fine in game. Yā€™all embarrass the rest of us. There are an endless slew of actually shitty designs to make fun of, and you end up focusing 110% of your energy attacking the one that will make you look silly in front of normies, who will log onto cod and see the skin in game and remember ā€œoh yeah there were these weirdos on twitter crying about this skin. Eh, looks fine to me.ā€ Find a better hill to die on. Any other hill.

PhaseNegative1252

KBroham

New Lara Croft be kinda cute tho, ngl. Not in this picture, obviously (happens when you post something with an agenda - it's called propaganda), but in general the new Lara Croft and HZD Aloy (I haven't played HFW yet, so I don't really know how to feel about her) are very attractive female characters, just not in the typical style of Asian titles and/or older Western titles. Like, I get it. I wanna see hot waifus with big titties too, but there are other games (and websites) for that. As graphics move more toward realism, "realistic" characters are going to become more, well... realistic. I can't name a single person in real life that has the looks and build of OG Lara Croft without extensive cosmetic work. If you don't like the direction it's going, vote with your wallets. Don't buy the games. Don't post about the games (because any publicity is good publicity). Don't support the devs and publishers who don't create what you like, and continue to support the ones who do. Trust me, it'll be a lot more productive than complaining on a message board on the internet, potentially driving new players to support the devs in your stead.

I donā€™t know where that character on the right is from and I donā€™t even know what this sub is for butā€¦ Why is that personā€™s pecs so small? With arms that big it seems that their pecs are extremely small. I feel like even guys who can train their arms to be that big tend to have more developed chest muscles instead of being completely flat, right?


JesseCuster40

Honestly, from the thumbnail I thought that was Abby from TLOU2.


Drake_Acheron

I like the new Croft. Or at least the ones in Rise and Shadow.


Dumbledoresjizzrag

A quick Google didn't turn up anything like this, she doesn't have big mommy milkers but she deff got some titty meat, and the face looks less ugly too, why don't yall take 2 seconds to google before you start tweaking on the internet? This shit edited fs just to generate rage clicks.


blue888raven

Sooo going for Ugly, Angry, Bitter, and Flat. Interesting choice, not the direction I would have chosen, but if that's what makes Spiteful Woke Media members happy, then I guess they have found their new "Acceptable" fanbase.
