Where to find moi

I'm trying to be on other sites in case I can't use Tumblr for whatever reason in the future. This will still be my main place though :)

Mastodon/Fediverse: ohai.social/@ qwertyrainbow

Pillowfort and Bluesky: you can find me as 'qwertyrainbow'

Anywhere else with that username is either an abandoned account or not me

I don't hate what I've seen about Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, but I don't love it either.

Far from me to ruin some hypes out there, but that mention of Kurtis Trent in the magazine's cover is nothing but an Easter egg. Fortunately, because lore wise it makes zero sense. Kurtis was always a man of low profile, being anonymous is key to his survival. Appearing in a cover magazine would mean his impending death.

The mention of other characters belonging to different timelines strongly reinforces the idea of this being just a detail to catch classic audiences thirsting again for some crumbs.

I don't want crumbs. I want the whole bread. And we're not getting it anytime soon (it doesn't matter when you read this. 2006? 2016? 2026? You name it.)

But overall I have a heavy heart seeing people pre-ordering those brutally expensive collector/special-ish editions before even having seen the thing. As cool as it looks, whatever we saw was just a cinematic trailer. We haven't seen actual gameplay, and people is already buying and preordering like there's no tomorrow.

They're literally preordering a wrapping gift paper and the bow that comes with it (the statue) without having seen what the gift actually contains. Capitalism at its finest.

And don't get me wrong, I respect everyone's personal choices. You do with your money what you want to do. It's just I don't know at which point people started accepting that a merge of three absolutely incompatible timelines would be a great idea.

The price you pay is the erasing of lots of lore belonging to each era, sacrificed in the altar of unification. They already did that to Lara. Now even if not being present, to Kurtis, who would not allow his name being public at any point.

And don't get me started with the erased dubbings and the AI generator disclaimer. I'm too tired now.

As for me, I will stalk and watch from afar the unfolding of events. Shame I lost the passion and hype for this saga 20 years ago. The remasters were a surprise, though.

Tbh, I wasn't really interested in the new games in the first place. Now I see that AI disclaimer, even less so. I'm quite content replaying the classics as long as I can ❤️
