I can't be the only one seeing the parallels between this Tomb Raider reboot and Metroid: Other M, can I? Because Other M was basically Sakamoto taking a massive s*** on one of the few established strong female characters in video games and remaking her into a weak, passive woman who needed orders to so much as put her power suit on, and going off that interview that's pretty much what the Tomb Raider developers are going for here.

I mean I get that it's a reboot and things are going to change, but you're rebooting one of the most iconic characters in all of video games (leaving aside that she's female here). If Legend of Zelda was rebooted (like it is every new game ololol) and Link was remade as a weak character who gets smacked back down by fate every time he has the sheer brass balls to act like the hero of Hyrule, the outcry would be incredible.
