I don't really understand why some people hate the story and characters in the Tomb Raider reboot so much. I mean it wan't great or anything. A fairly run of the mill and predictable plot with sort of cliched characters, but it served ok for running the action along and I've sure encountered far worse plots in plenty recent video games. Unremarkable but servicable really.

The story wasn't great itself, but the arc was well done. Going from scared and barely scraping by to COME ON THEN YOU BASTARDS by the end was fantastic.

I dont know much about it, but I'm worried by the therapy framing I've heard about for this one. It was pretty much core to the point of the reboot that Lara did not come out of that story broken, but standing triumphant.

I don't think the Solarii are coming back. That's like, typical tie-in comic book type deal stuff where they use something from the prior game or include some vague link that has no impact on either game in the end.

How does the solarii coming back in the comments even make a shred of sense? Did a bunch of crazies that Lara somehow didn't slaughter follow them off the island?
