Women ruined gaming again… Note: This is my first EVER scripted & researched video essay commentary video! Leave a like to let me know if you want more of this kind of video in the future!

This video is interesting insofar as it's the creator's first venture into video commentary. Due to the hype surrounding GTA6, the fascist/anti-feminist backlash bleeds into the mainstream and now people who had previously not been aware of the fascist/anti-feminist content on social media are exposed to it. [Most of the fascist/anti-feminist content creators she mentions are the usual suspects of fascist/anti-feminist content and have been at it for years.]

I'll admit to being a little gutted about Lara Crofts design direction, but thats because I'm horny not sexist. I haven't played any since 2 and the top-down co-op one though so I'm not really allowed to comment.

The latest one that rebooted the franchise with a British VA, is really really good. You should give it a go, it's cheap and on sale all the time.

The first game in the reboot series does suffer from a bit of ludonarrative dissonance

spoilerwhen Lara first kills somebody it's a traumatic experience for her, but after that cutscene she massacres dudes for the rest of the game without batting an eyelid

but it is a very good game. I really should get around to playing the others, they've sat unplayed in my library for years.

I think that first part was supposed to be a shock, and show it's not going to be like the older games.
