Here I am playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider, when it dawns on me. Lara is a sociopath. She is a killing machine who barely even speaks on it, it’s nothing to her at this point. She doesn’t care about her health, injury nor pain. She just wants artifacts and to uncover ancient mysteries. I like her character but damn she is actually low key the villain of the story when i think about it. Trinity are bad guys but Lara is the boss villain slaughtering all in her way to get to her goals. Lol anyone else notice that?

    Lara sneaking around a camp. Finds a letter one of the mercs wrote to his little daughter. He just wants to come home to her and only took the job to pay for her expensive private school.

    She slams her climbing pick into his eye socket.

        It’s just a joke because that’s exactly the kind of thing you can expect to find/do.

        In the first reboot especially, since it’s on a Bermuda-Triangle-type island off Japan where everyone who’s landed there ends up marooned because of a magical storm/hurricane that keeps it hidden, so you’ll find letters and whatnot from soldiers of all different eras including the very soldiers you fight in-game.
