So, I had been meaning to buy the new Tomb Raider game for a while now, but never got around to it. Then I heard you were going to be writing the new Tomb Raider comic that directly follows the game. That was yesterday. I now own the game and am loving it

I am the first to admit I made good fun of the initial PR report for the game. I hate to keep beating a dead horse but whoever did the initial publicity REALLY did a disservice to the game by talking about how you would want to ‘protect’ Lara.

I get what he meant, I think…you care so much about her in the game, it’s upsetting when she dies. But I don’t want to ‘protect’ Lara, I want to BE Lara. And this game delivers that.

I think it is the most human, immersive game experience I have ever played, and Lara is FLAWLESS in it. It feels like Batman: Year One to me, here’s Bruce Wayne before he becomes THE BATMAN in all caps, you know?

I loved it, I played it til the end, bought all the outfits. I am pathetic. :)

But I love it. Writing young Lara at this stage in her life is JOY.
