I for one never abandoned the old ways like these gamergate incel heathens
what in the hell is that comic cover nobody told me lara croft did latex nuns
Never in a million years did I think fans of the franchise actually wanted Kurtis Trent to come back let alone seduce Lara.
I don't remember any sexual tension in the games i played
lara and sam in the 2013 reboot are only not a couple because of executive meddling but all the supporting material is there, with sam being bi.
at least one of those screenshots is from a cartoon
I've just played couple of the old ones
There wasn't really any sexual tension between Lara and Sofia on account of Lara had the hots for her dad
