TBH most people know at least a small bit about the TR series enough to just jump right into the second game without losing much. So far I haven't run into more than three references from the first game and even those were all in one cinematic.Wow, that looks fantastic! I still need to play that first one.
It's a human being.
They did a good job of making her look like a person in the first reboot game, but they outdid themselves in Rise. The funny thing is that a lot of TR fans are furious that all the outfits she has are things are things she'd actually wear or find available in the environments she's thrown into which is mostly snow yet they still want her in the skimpy shorts because that's how the old games looked. Sure they'd look good but she's in the fraking snow 90% of the time, it makes no sense.right.
she looks human, finally.
