Really...this is supposed to be the ethnic and racial prejudices and stereotypes? Strange that we never get such disclaimers when we see savage blonde vikings, evil nazi germans and commie russians, gun loving americans with a southern accent etc etc in movies and games. But god forbid they show a brown pacific islander tribe with spears and headdresses.
>non-english accents are now muh racism >cannibal tribe bad even though you talk to one who wasn't brainwashed by magic artifact
Who am I kidding we all knew this shit more or less was bound to happen, we live in a world where 'chinaman' is seen as far worse than 'c**t' for frick's sake.
>let's call the devs of original Tomb Raider racists and play paragons of higher morality for easy woke points, what could possibly go wrong?
Pot, kettle, black.
I don't know shit about the original Tomb Raider games, but ironically if anything some of the designs in Shadow of the Tomb raider are hilariously evil looking tribal sterotypes that's basically the Maya version of african tribal caricatures.
The designs posted in particular are the worst ones. Compare them to pic related
If you did something even 10% as bad with any other cultural group, it would be a giant shitstorm across every gaming news outlet, but nobody gives a shit about LATAM Indigenous stuff and they may not even realize how bad the designs are.
It's really ironic considering they put articles out about trying to be respectful and authentic when making the game.

This is all completely guesswork/fabrication because not a single thread of cloth was preserved from that time period. The jungle/humidity ate it all. All we have is the artwork to tell us how people dressed, which usually featured magnificently-ridiculous headdresses and crazy clothes -- because those guys wore their wealth/station as an outfit.
Which is contrary to how things were preserved in Egypt where, if you shuffle your feet in the sand, you can kick up 2,000 year old linens.
Everything seen in that image is based on engraved lintels, painted murals, ceramics, as well as colonial sources and garments, though that's more applicable to the designs in

As an example the "Robe" design is based on this ceramic from Jaina island
The amount of hypocrisy that runs rampant in the game industry pisses me off. Like this isn't new news, but it never not makes my blood boil that these shits keep getting away with this. Though at least with the constant mass layoffs, I can only hope this cancer will be cut off soon.
i actually read the manual for TR
how the frick is someone being disowned from aristocracy and earning their way through life with their own two hands a negative thing as condemned by the wokists??
Why do you think this shit is always supported by leftists? No one cares dude, and there's nothing that's racist or offensive in these games at all. They're just adventure games, and nothing more. I can't think of anything that's legitimately offensive and/or racist. >We're going to speak for people who didn't ask us to speak for them >You're going to play our watered down and chopped up slop and you will like it or go frick yourself
Because they are moronic.
They want biden to be president so he can step down after 6 months and hand it over to that boon.
These are the same moronic lot telling u electric cars are the future and none damaging......whilst ignoring fricking Colbolt and all the other chemicals needed for those magically batteries that will never need replacing
>They want biden to be president so he can step down after 6 months and hand it over to that boon.
I thought so too, but it's now a year and two months after he could have stepped down, and instead he's running for reelection.
That's because no one would vote for kamela. You vote biden but you get her because he'll step down within 6 months because he's 81 years old and cant remember what day it even is
That's exactly what I thought would happen too, but here we are 3.2 years into his term and it didn't.
Also wonder why them Dems don't pick a VP candidate who could actually win on their own, the San Fran Democrat clique is a lot weaker than they were 4 years ago, and the only logical reason they would have picked Harris as VP was as a sop to Pelosi and Feinstein, and both are out of high power now.
She’s hot, there’s nothing beyond that. She doesn’t even really act all that sexually, most of that’s the marketing. The closest that I can think of is the shower thing at the end of TR2, which is very tongue-in-cheek, and I vaguely recall some line in Underworld where she’s confronting some merc, and she playfully says something like “I don’t suppose that there’s anything I could do to change your mind?” but even that’s a stretch, because she could as well mean paying him.
Everything aside from Lara's looks are woke, technically speaking. She's a strong independent woman who don't need no man, and can take down men and monsters multiple times bigger than her. She's got a wienery attitude and skills to back it up. The thing that leftoids can't look past are her breasts and her sex symbol status. They see it as an exploitation of women, despite all her other attributes.
Honestly I think most of the modern hate is just trannies who get jealous about attractive women. Estrogen makes you territorial and defensive, moreso when you haven't had to live with it your whole life.
I played the first 3 tomb raider games a few years ago and I can remember absolutely NOTHING objectionable.
what the FRICK is this self-flagellation? This is reaching parody levels
Good thing I can just mod it out, unlike when they re-release games with stuff missing because it's offensive. Getting rid of a stupid startup movie is easy.
>every other disney movie before the 90’s had no darkies in it yet they single this one out?
I would make my week if dumbo had a different warning than the "sorry theres no black people" one.
They'll find something. If you want to be offended about something, you'll find a way.
Remember when TV networks had this "viewer's discretion is advised" message at the start of every show and then everybody just moved on with their lives?
Strong black queen gets attacked by white people for no reason. She dindu nuffin, just tryin to feed her kids. Ya’ll just hate xenomorphs cuz you don’t understand our rich culture.

I'm not particularly concerned about the "warning". Its like a "Warning: HOT" label on hot coffee. yeah....no shit. What I am concerned about is the type of person who needs that warning.
fricking christ i just pirate everything so i had no idea it had gotten this bad
do normies really not see all this as completely ludicrously unnecessary and insulting as we do?
The reasoning is yes, it's dumb but what do I care, it's just 10 bucks a month...applied across a spectrum of industries. What it means to be a normie is to tune out to anything beyond what you're currently doing.
Christ these new ones are so fricking sanctimonious. I hate these melodramatic progressives
What are you doing, there's not even anything to "chat is this real" about. It's a completely banal cultural-sensitivity warning for games that were otherwise unaltered. You win because nothing was changed, the rainbow haired sobbing SJW in your head wins because they get a trigger warning at the start.
The Warner Bros warning from the mid 2000s is how it should be: Straight and to the point, minimal pearl clutching bullshit.
I'm offended by being told that I might be offended.
EXTREMELY offended actually, if there isn't some PR approved paragraph for me to read right now explaining and apologizing for this then I'm gonna post on twitter about it!
Any pre-2020 media (ESG takeover) is getting these "warnings"
And by 2030 all pre-2020 media will be banned. Blackrock's private militia will even be visiting your house to take away your physical copies too.

I was going to write out a post saying you shouldn't get offended at how your argumentative style was described but halfway through it I realized you should just not argue in the first place and quit being a miserable obsessed c**t on an anonymous anime forum's video games board
"These games are racist and don't align with our values but we're going to profit off them anyway"
Is anyone on X (formerly twitter) calling them out for this? Is this kind of behaviour acceptable to the woke crowd? Why are these games being sold if the company is such a paragon of woke values?
I already explained that the "woke" crowd thinks it's bullshit too. There's nothing really racist or offensive in the early games. At all, I remember because I fricking played the originals
>straight white men unaffected by negative stereotypes that may have impacted other people negatively are upset that the game acknowledges this

This shit is pointless but I'm not gonna let a 5 second message run rent free in my head. Speak with your wallet.
If you someone did care then they would've censor the game. A 5 second "warning" screen at the beginning of game isn't caring.
Most of the original games lean pretty hard on stereotypes, but the only racially-charged ones I can remember are the wacky Tibetan monks and the South Pacific cannibal tribe.
The wording of the disclaimer is a bit aggressive but I'd rather have a 2 second popup I can ignore than have them censor or remove content.
The Japanese haven't gotten to this point yet. They're only just at the point where they're altering their new games for "modern sensibilities". Japan is always 10 years behind the rest of the world.
That’s not even all Japanese. The FF XVI director and Akira Toriyama refuse to budge and force black characters into Eastern and European inspired stories.
>Isn't it a good thing that the game you spent $30 on immediately impugns your moral character, and smears the original devs who made it as racist?
No, I will not be supporting this cucked redditor shit.
>My hot aunt
Women without body confidence issues see no problem with hot women in media.
It's just hags who've let themselves go who make such a fuss about it.
Lara Croft is self-sufficient but not in a "don't you talk down to me, I'm my OWN woman," kind of way but rather a professional, composed, unfazed way and I guess that makes some people mad.
>I guess that makes some people mad.
Their anger is entirely superficial, anon. They see her on magazine covers in a bikini and they seethe. It's that shrimple

Doesn't Embracer control it, rather than Crystal Dynamics? Honestly, frick Crystal Dynamics, here. Injecting themselves into a situation that has fricking zero to do with them just so they can virtue signal.
Jesus Christ what the frick you do gays want.
They managed to dodge the censorship and just add a piece of text at the fricking beginning and you get to do all the fun stuff again, is that not enough?
We have one of the best possible ways to have clean remakes without having to bend the knee to c**ts on social media and you are going to get pissy about it?

Put your money where your mouth is and stay away from the bad racist TR then.
This is not to virtual signal you fricking moron, this is a way to get away with making a clean remake by just adding text, do you understand that?
All the funny racist shit is still there and you are pissing and moaning because you have to read a piece of text at the start of the game, how much of a baby are you?
Yeah it is. >the original were bad, icky and gross, we're not like that at all, we just want to make money off of it
Get fricked. There are thousands of lay offs coming and you're next.
That's not how it fricking works anon, if you don't put anything you subject the product to scrutiny and getting the whole thing removed and losing the chance to create another one.
You have the chance to relieve old classics in modern devices and you are throwing a fit because of text that you wont even read.
I don't think so pal, I think you're projecting too much power to what amounts to a cabal of screeching monkeys that'll get tired of the situation in a week's time.

You have a full game remade available to entretain you but a "mean screen of text" is making you lose your shit you gay, you dont enjoy videogames, you enjoy the idea of being persecuted, this is the absolute best way to get a re realease that respects the original game enough to not make any changes to its content... but thats not enough for you right? you want more, you want a game to have a political statement and flip those leftards off right?

They completely redid the assets but use the same level geometry as the original game
Like the Crash Bandicoot revival game
I suspect this is Crystal Dynamics trying to sabotage the game that ASPIRE made because classic Lara makes them seethe, and you guys are falling for it.
I'm buying the game for Classic Lara. I don't care how moronic CD are. They didn't make this.
>hurru durudurduru fuuut!
Just shut the frick up already. My point still stands, there is no one left to support. >b-bbutt you said wrong name!
see above
Exactly. In an ideal world, the dumb disclaimer wouldn't be there. But by the standards of the woke clown world we live in, this is tame af.
Remember, People, the key takeaway from the message is that they are NOT Censoring the game. That's a win in this day and age.
By boycotting this, you're basically telling Embracer that you want more dog fricking Nu-Lara shite and not Classic Lara. Don't lets throw the toys out the pram because of a moronic message from a dev that were barely involved in making this remaster.
To the people saying that it isn't a big deal, who cares it appears for two seconds, get over it. Why put it there at all then? The people who would be offended by the game are still going to be offended, it's just insulting customers who spent their money on your "harmful racist" game you are choosing to sell.
Because its a safety net anon, this way people that are not moronic can ignore it and continue enjoying the game and the real morons that complain can be pointed at that screen.
I used to make fun of media that portrayed foreigners with silly accents, but goddamn if seeing educated doctors and nurses I work with absolutely fumble with English and sound utterly moronic whenever a tourist rolls in and they're actually put in the spot hasn't convinced me they need to come back. I almost pissed myself laughing hearing a traumathologist describe a radial head fracture as "arm bone broke, 2 month it back!" to some clueless brit girl.
I work in healthcare in an English speaking country and tons of the foreign doctors can just barely speak it. I'm honestly shocked they were hired, unless the amount of foreigners here is so high that a doctor can make a living just serving Indians or Chinese or whatever they are. Nurses are even worse.

I never preorder games but I just preordered this. Frick you, CD shills and Nu_Lara lovers. Seethe more.
I only preordered it today since I was able to get it 30% off, after seeing near every reviewer basically saying it's a flawless port with zero crashes or bugs, which is fricking rare these days.
They omitted the save crystals. Without them, there is no real difficulty in the game and everyone will be quicksaving before every jump. This murders the games and they’re distracting you with culture war bullshit. Morons.
I liked the Jagged Alliance 3 content warning, which essentially says that they made offensive jokes back in the '90s and that they're not going to stop.
this is the right result to embalance shit up
first i don't care about tomb raider frick tank controls frick late 1990s
second this is what morons get for wanting remakes and remasters
you don't like the original game anyway so frick you
and you're old enough to stop caring about fricking videogames anyway ffs
Well I'm glad they gave me a reason not to buy it. Really can't stand this shit, why do people feel the need to add their own useless moralizing commentary onto the works of others, work that they could never hope to produce themselves?
I guess instead of talking about the quality of remasters themselves, Ganker has gone the usual route of shitposting and controversy-baiting.
Why does that still suprise me?
>Tomb Raider threads up to release have been comfy >this "warning" drops >threads devolve into the typical le sjw wokie leftist liberal garbage outrage shitposting
I'm getting too old for this place. Being mad isn't fun, I just wanna discuss videogames.
You're addicted to outrage because you have nothing else going for you in your life. You're a miserable homosexual and it's likely everyone around you hates you. It's just a videogame.
Whoa you sure got me, an angry moron on an anonymous imageboard for videogames and his imaginary friend called me a soft b***h homosexual. I hope you learn to live life without your pain and bitterness anon, maybe then you can enjoy things again.
These warning labels are getting more moronic and condescending but the real question is: will the game be fricking good or just another cash grab with tinted nostalgia glasses.
It sounds pretty good. Runs well apparently. Faithful, uncensored recreation of the classics. After watching a few videos, I preordered it this evening (which i normally never do) just to save 10%.
oh boy are we in for another round of people on here crying about the preservation of the games? don't want censorship, but you all cry about something as minor as this
so what? would you prefer they change the games instead? quit fricking crying homosexual, this is the best case scenario, you just want to cry about nothing.
>don't want censorship
Correct, and I also don't want moral whinging from degenerate devs. Do your job and remaster the games, don't tell me how I'm supposed to feel about them.
cry more diaper baby, if you can't handle even a few seconds of a disclaimer you don't need to take seriously you deserve to never be happy about any media release
I always wonder why people bother entertaining these morons. They literally don't even play video games. They just make up shit for an outrage article or they make up shit for an indie game they like.
I don't think it's worth getting worked up over but the tone of these things has become far more self-congratulatory over the past decade, and usually inserted into the text *itself* rather than on the cover/platform it's accessed through. If I were seriously offended enough by racial stereotypes, or violence, or sex for it to *dissuade me from playing*, I'd want to know before I put money down on it, not once I'd parted ways with my cash and booted it up.
"Viewer discretion is advised" makes zero value judgements, moron. This sort of statement is explicit in it's smearing of the original dev team and you by proxy for having enjoyed their work. Only an absolute cuck would actually hand over $30 to be lectured on their moral failings everytime they boot a fricking video game.
Claims of plagiarism are legally sensitive and can contribute to a culture of accusation without proof. Without verifying your assertion, addressing this could involve speculative discussion that does not respect the integrity of intellectual property rights.
What the frick? At this point anything that doesn't actively praise homosexuals and feminism is considered offensive. At least devs found a clever excuse to keep everything true to the original, rather than censoring shit.
>offensive depictions of people and cultures rooted in racial and ethnic prejudices
The literal first 10 minutes of SotTR start in Mexico during Dia de los Muertos because that's the second thing westoids know about Mexico, probably because they watched Coco.
Probably. Question is, who actually gives a shit and who actually blames Crystal Dynamics for it? Frick, they've probably done worse with Gex, which they did actually make. Who cares?
If they actually changed shit, it would bother me. Since they're not, i'll buy it.

Everything seen in that image is based on engraved lintels, painted murals, ceramics, as well as colonial sources and garments, though that's more applicable to the designs in

The amount of hypocrisy that runs rampant in the game industry pisses me off. Like this isn't new news, but it never not makes my blood boil that these shits keep getting away with this. Though at least with the constant mass layoffs, I can only hope this cancer will be cut off soon.
Economic hard times will force course correction.
All the woke shit will be dropped when companies have to succeed or face closure.
I've said in so many threads now and its still not clicking in your fricking heads.

Why is everything becoming so gay
ESG
Anti-bully campaigns.
The race of men died in the 90s. Welcome to the age of women and enjoy your staying.
>becoming
Bullying us into acceptance
i actually read the manual for TR
how the frick is someone being disowned from aristocracy and earning their way through life with their own two hands a negative thing as condemned by the wokists??
Lara is hated by wokists because she has massive breasts, nothing else.
and she's white
I could have sworn I read once that one of her parents was of Indian/Pakistani descent, but maybe that was just the girl from Gunsmith Cats.
This pisses off the "independent feminist woman"
Why do you think this shit is always supported by leftists? No one cares dude, and there's nothing that's racist or offensive in these games at all. They're just adventure games, and nothing more. I can't think of anything that's legitimately offensive and/or racist.
>We're going to speak for people who didn't ask us to speak for them
>You're going to play our watered down and chopped up slop and you will like it or go frick yourself
Because she looks hot, and wokists absolutely despise good-looking women. Just look about how they despise Samus.
woke. "more stronk womyn"
>presenting hot and strong Lara, original pioneer of female protag
woke: NOT LIKE THAT
Because they are moronic.
They want biden to be president so he can step down after 6 months and hand it over to that boon.
These are the same moronic lot telling u electric cars are the future and none damaging......whilst ignoring fricking Colbolt and all the other chemicals needed for those magically batteries that will never need replacing
>why do modern video game devs write women in a certain-
>DID YOU KNOW THAT JOE BIDEN WANTS TO BUILD ELECTRIC CARS
>They want biden to be president so he can step down after 6 months and hand it over to that boon.
I thought so too, but it's now a year and two months after he could have stepped down, and instead he's running for reelection.
That's because no one would vote for kamela. You vote biden but you get her because he'll step down within 6 months because he's 81 years old and cant remember what day it even is
That's exactly what I thought would happen too, but here we are 3.2 years into his term and it didn't.
Also wonder why them Dems don't pick a VP candidate who could actually win on their own, the San Fran Democrat clique is a lot weaker than they were 4 years ago, and the only logical reason they would have picked Harris as VP was as a sop to Pelosi and Feinstein, and both are out of high power now.
That's still the plan. No one thought he would live all 4 years.
Biden isnt a Switch Pro anon. Let it go.
Nobody that b***hes about old Lara looked any further than her breasts. These people don't play videogames.
She’s hot, there’s nothing beyond that. She doesn’t even really act all that sexually, most of that’s the marketing. The closest that I can think of is the shower thing at the end of TR2, which is very tongue-in-cheek, and I vaguely recall some line in Underworld where she’s confronting some merc, and she playfully says something like “I don’t suppose that there’s anything I could do to change your mind?” but even that’s a stretch, because she could as well mean paying him.
Everything aside from Lara's looks are woke, technically speaking. She's a strong independent woman who don't need no man, and can take down men and monsters multiple times bigger than her. She's got a wienery attitude and skills to back it up. The thing that leftoids can't look past are her breasts and her sex symbol status. They see it as an exploitation of women, despite all her other attributes.
Honestly I think most of the modern hate is just trannies who get jealous about attractive women. Estrogen makes you territorial and defensive, moreso when you haven't had to live with it your whole life.
No we don't
Because wokists are trust fund babies who have been handed everything in life but want to pretend they are the struggling underclass
Who said they have a problem with that part? Your brain?
>After attending finishing school
What the frick is finishing school?
Where rich white ladies go to learn how to 'act' like a woman, in the upper-class sense.
I played the first 3 tomb raider games a few years ago and I can remember absolutely NOTHING objectionable.
what the FRICK is this self-flagellation? This is reaching parody levels
What was acceptable 3 years ago is no longer acceptable today. You can never be woke enough.
I’m just waiting on the woke disclaimers to play before every Sopranos episode and a handful of Star Trek ‘sodes that used stereotypes for aliens.
These are like the unskippable FBI warning on DVDs (that ironically pirates never had to deal with). It's out of hand.
piracy forever
I refuse to believe the black cauldron one is real, every other disney movie before the 90’s had no darkies in it yet they single this one out?
They probably did put those disclaimers on every movie with an all white class. And next it will be TV shows and video games.
Good thing I can just mod it out, unlike when they re-release games with stuff missing because it's offensive. Getting rid of a stupid startup movie is easy.
>every other disney movie before the 90’s had no darkies in it yet they single this one out?
I would make my week if dumbo had a different warning than the "sorry theres no black people" one.
The crows are definitely considered a racist stereotype.
Aristocats and Peter Pan had similar warnings, I was feeling nostalgic, though not as blunt as "no darkies".
>when the clowns begin to run the circus
What the frick is offensive about Aliens?
They'll find something. If you want to be offended about something, you'll find a way.
Remember when TV networks had this "viewer's discretion is advised" message at the start of every show and then everybody just moved on with their lives?
Anon, this isn't "use your discretion", it's quite literally telling you how to think.
And we're not obligated to listen. I'm too busy staring Lara's massive breasts, anyway.
somethign about women doing things themselves instead of the highly trained spec ops team is off putting to the modern woman's sensibilities
I think a white/israeli actress played a Latina character? Also
>Do you ever get mistaken for a man?
>No, do you?
> looked it up
ha she did a good job playing a spanish woman
It's absurd how much better she looks with darker skin and a short haircut.
>Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?
This is offensive to the limp wristed....I despair for the future
Strong black queen gets attacked by white people for no reason. She dindu nuffin, just tryin to feed her kids. Ya’ll just hate xenomorphs cuz you don’t understand our rich culture.
>She refused to pull up her panties
She sounds like the bigger moron here honestly.
shut up
Nope, this scene is pure Kino thanks to her
Yes, bawds are based, prudes are cringe
kek
She also apparently wanted to be topless in a couple scenes, but was told it was too much, there's a few behind the scenes shots of it.
Modern women just don't understand femininity at all.
being a prostitute is "feminine" now huh?
>NOOO nudity is bad unless it's my animes!!
being alluring is feminine, which includes showing off your body.
context, homosexual.
moot is so fricking gross
Her wanting to be a bimbo in Galaxy Quest makes much more sense now,
It's xenophobic
you b*tch
Frick you Carlos
kek
They're supposed to be called Undocumenteds.
distrust of AI is problematic
>Bunch of slack-jawed homosexuals around here.This stuff will make you a god damned sexual Tyrannosaurus... just like me.
i fricking love coddling bros
I'm not particularly concerned about the "warning". Its like a "Warning: HOT" label on hot coffee. yeah....no shit. What I am concerned about is the type of person who needs that warning.
fricking christ i just pirate everything so i had no idea it had gotten this bad
do normies really not see all this as completely ludicrously unnecessary and insulting as we do?
Normies don't care. That's what makes them normies.
This is what normies do:
>huh, that's stupid. Anyway,
The reasoning is yes, it's dumb but what do I care, it's just 10 bucks a month...applied across a spectrum of industries. What it means to be a normie is to tune out to anything beyond what you're currently doing.
Christ these new ones are so fricking sanctimonious. I hate these melodramatic progressives
The Warner Bros warning from the mid 2000s is how it should be: Straight and to the point, minimal pearl clutching bullshit.
I'm offended by being told that I might be offended.
EXTREMELY offended actually, if there isn't some PR approved paragraph for me to read right now explaining and apologizing for this then I'm gonna post on twitter about it!
>we are therefore presenting the original eposide in its entirety
Frickers write like they are showing off a decapitated baby to the pulic.
THE WHITE MAN WILL COME BACK AGAIN AND WE WILL NO LONGER TOLERATE THIS
Any pre-2020 media (ESG takeover) is getting these "warnings"
And by 2030 all pre-2020 media will be banned. Blackrock's private militia will even be visiting your house to take away your physical copies too.
You will obey. You will be happy.
Blackrock and Blackwater will merge when no one is looking.
what will their new name be?
Black2
Back2Black
It was a different time. Before the cultural revolution...
This is too on the nose to be real. I demand more proof.
So far, it seems to only be on the Switch version.
?si=OLFKcM6Z64RFfjZb
Makes sense. They know a lot of kids will be playing these games for the first time on Switch. Don't want them getting the wrong ideas.
What are you doing, there's not even anything to "chat is this real" about. It's a completely banal cultural-sensitivity warning for games that were otherwise unaltered. You win because nothing was changed, the rainbow haired sobbing SJW in your head wins because they get a trigger warning at the start.
>in your head
If the SJW is fictional, then what is the purpose of the cultural-sensitivity warning? Do you realize you're contradicting yourself here, in order to come off as an enlightened centrist?
How come every culture-warrior and culture-war troll on Ganker only knows how to sealion and no other form of trolling
What?
Sealioning is when you ask someone to explain themselves and show proof over and over in bad faith. How that relates to some loon covering his eyes to blatant pandering I have no clue.
asking "UMMM SO WHAT'S THE POINT THEN" over and over is in fact sealioning
>asking "UMMM SO WHAT'S THE POINT THEN"
In regards to what
Source?
>sealioning
(You) need to go back
I was going to write out a post saying you shouldn't get offended at how your argumentative style was described but halfway through it I realized you should just not argue in the first place and quit being a miserable obsessed c**t on an anonymous anime forum's video games board
Lara used to be a coloniser instead of a rapebait.
"These games are racist and don't align with our values but we're going to profit off them anyway"
Is anyone on X (formerly twitter) calling them out for this? Is this kind of behaviour acceptable to the woke crowd? Why are these games being sold if the company is such a paragon of woke values?
This. CANCEL CRYSTAL DYNAMICS NOW!
I'm dead serious.
CD should donate a portion of their profits to some charity for Indigenous people.
I already explained that the "woke" crowd thinks it's bullshit too. There's nothing really racist or offensive in the early games. At all, I remember because I fricking played the originals
How many threads about this dumb shit are you gonna make OP
Are you gonna keep posting it until you get the tantrum thread you wanted
this is my first thread wtf i'm not terminally online if that's what you're wondering
When will you go back to discord sister?
please tell me this is fake I need less of a reason to kill myself
>straight white men unaffected by negative stereotypes that may have impacted other people negatively are upset that the game acknowledges this
Why? It didnt affect you back then, it doesnt affect you now. So why pretend to be upset about this?
>unaffected by negative stereotypes
You've never been in a non white country before have you.
Because I hated homosexuals and blacks in the 90s and I hate them now. I feel offended when corpos try to tell me my views are outdated.
>straight up say they're not censoring anything
>I'm supposed to be mad about this
You're not getting the reaction you want from me, OP.
They censored the jacket bomber with a pin-up in it.
what?
pinups shouldn't be nude in the first place
Eh, a small tradeoff.
Lara's breasts are still big and that's what I care about.
yep, it's woke
dropped
You were never gonna buy it, you are just looking for the next big outrage.
>ask devs not yo do thing
>devs do thing
>"you were never going to buy it anyway!!!!"
If you say so. How many SJW trannies buy games that cater to the LGBTQP+ crowd?
did you though?
did you ask the devs to keep the breasts out on a blurry jacket?
Yes.
I specifically said don't censor the remaster.
You can play with the original graphics. Is it censored there?
Nope.
So what can I be upset about now then?
I dunno. Find something.PC Gamer reviewer was upset about Lara's tatas, for instance, so get creative.
and........ dropped.
very close, they actually had me considering purchasing it.
They compensated for it, though.
Here's your nudity.
Niiice.
Someone should draw porn of Lara having sex with the mimic.
The mimic will copy everything she does so it would be a battle of staminia.
It's been done already 15 years ago, keep up.
There's been LaraXDoppelganger smut aplenty.
what about Lara x nuLara lesdom?
breasts
Call me a schizo but I'm getting "degenerate art alert" vibes from this
Like what Nazis did with non-conventional pieces
Welp, won't be getting this trash anymore. Eat shit and die Crystal Dynamics you gays.
Off the top of my head, the tibetan monks in TR2 who make silly kung fu wailing noises, and the cannibal tribe in TR3
Because it must be done.
Translation: We're still a bunch of woke homosexuals but we're not going to censor your game.
v/: REEEEEEEEE Don't buy this. Buy another copy of the "anti-woke" Hogwarts troony game instead.
The disclaimer is gay af but I'm just happy they're not censoring the game and we're getting big breasts again. Take the W for fricks sake.
Yes. The main character embodies the stereotype of white women being beautiful.
It didn't portray women as strong
I don't know the code, it's just a funny picture
giwtwm
damnit anon
Kuse-008
you literally arrive at an indigenous tribe settlement and start killing everyone for fun
NOOOOOO YOU'RE NOT TURNING INTO A SOIJAK AT THE SIGHT OF A TRIGGER WARNING THAT CONFIRMS NOTHING WAS ALTERED
Y-Y-YOU'RE A FRICKING SHIIIILLLLLLLLL
lol, are people really losing their minds over this?
The left were losing their minds. Hence why they had to add this.
Alot of people think its fale however and is actually there because the company wants the chinese money and these games have Tibet, Hong kong etc as not belonging to china
No one was losing their minds, why are you lying?
Check twitter. Amazing how it's all the same lot saying how old lara is racist and has stereotypes
>Check twitter
I'm good, don't forget your meds though
No thanks I'm really not in the mood to play whack-a-mole with whatever 0 QRT, 2 likes, 1 RT post it is you've gone completely mental over
Where you like this when the riots happened as well anon?
Then why put the warning in first place if no one cares?
So the homosexuals at Crystal Dynamics can feel good about themselves.
While I gun down brown savages and dinosaurs as bimbo Lara Croft.
There's more anonymous imageboard homosexuals screeching about it by-proxy of thinking leftoids are screeching about it than there are any actual leftoids screeching about it
The call is coming from inside the house, anon
can you confirm that the OP image is true then?
This only reinforces how pointless the warning is.
So they put the warning just to piss off a bunch of morons in a backwater of a board?
hell yeah they did, trolling neckbeards is a time-honored developer pastime
we're living in the FF7 remake being one of the biggest fricking neckbeard trolls to ever exist by "ruining" the biggest JRPG ever
delusional
are you kidding? we have DAILY threads pissing and fricking moaning about the playstation game being "ruined" by a remake that's in an alternate universe
It wouldn’t have been as bad if they had come clean from the beginning that this would be a reimagining instead of a straight remake. But they waited until the game was out and they made their preorder money to drop that on us.
we're talking about trolling neckbeards you fat waste
that was the entire point
This shit is pointless but I'm not gonna let a 5 second message run rent free in my head. Speak with your wallet.
If you someone did care then they would've censor the game. A 5 second "warning" screen at the beginning of game isn't caring.
I don't get it, I have no idea how it's racist.
The only guy losing his mind is you mate
Meds
Apparently enough people that they had to warn them to ready their feeble minds before witnessing that heckin low poly racism.
not buying and then criticizing a game for having pedantic lies in a disclaimer of an old game =/= losing their minds
Anon... I hate to break it to you, but leftists have been losing their minds non-stop for the past 10+ years.
"""People""" who talk like that need to be turned into fertilizer ASAP
Natla
Natla
I would frick Katie Hopkins honestly
Most of the original games lean pretty hard on stereotypes, but the only racially-charged ones I can remember are the wacky Tibetan monks and the South Pacific cannibal tribe.
The wording of the disclaimer is a bit aggressive but I'd rather have a 2 second popup I can ignore than have them censor or remove content.
THINK OF THE TIGERS AND RAPTORS
???? guys what do I do here
Why didn't Atlus add this for Persona 4 and 3 Portable remasters?
The Japanese haven't gotten to this point yet. They're only just at the point where they're altering their new games for "modern sensibilities". Japan is always 10 years behind the rest of the world.
That’s not even all Japanese. The FF XVI director and Akira Toriyama refuse to budge and force black characters into Eastern and European inspired stories.
Lmao who’s learning racism is bad from the tomb raider collection
>
Frick off CD, I'd say I will no longer buy your games, but they were never your games to begin with.
Isn’t this a good thing? instead of taking it out they left it in.
I’m sure if this screen bothers you, you can just take it out with a mod.
>Isn't it a good thing that the game you spent $30 on immediately impugns your moral character, and smears the original devs who made it as racist?
No, I will not be supporting this cucked redditor shit.
Oh frick off, I'm playing KINO tonight at midnight.
My hot aunt used to like these games in high school. That is all.
>My hot aunt
Women without body confidence issues see no problem with hot women in media.
It's just hags who've let themselves go who make such a fuss about it.
It was also the 90's
>Did the original Tomb Raider games have very offensive stereotypes?
There was a White waman in it
Lara Croft is self-sufficient but not in a "don't you talk down to me, I'm my OWN woman," kind of way but rather a professional, composed, unfazed way and I guess that makes some people mad.
>I guess that makes some people mad.
Their anger is entirely superficial, anon. They see her on magazine covers in a bikini and they seethe. It's that shrimple
>not wanting lara croft to colonize the absolute frick out of you
It pains me that there could be people on this earth who are that gay.
>WE SO SOWWWWYYYYYY
i hate this gayBlack person planet
You should hate only it`s western part.
Amazing this was the one post so offensive to our overlords that they had the mods remove it.
*the only post anybody's bothered reporting
Nice digits. What would compel someone to report that one specific post? Too much truth in it?
just count yourself lucky you didn't get your IP wiped and you might not have even gotten a warning
I'm sure we've all gotten banned for something mild once in a while. But the whole IP? I thought they saved that level of punishment for actual child pornographers.
no they reserve IP wipes from all of Ganker for any kind of overarching general homosexualry, if you've made a lot of posts (ie an entire thread spent being a shithead) they want gone that's it no questions
I hope that means I"m safe then, all my posts are diamond quality.
Why is Crystal Dynamics' name here? I thought Aspyr was doing the remasters? And Core Design did 1-3. Really, what the frick is Crystal Dynamics' name here for?
Didn't Crystal Dynamics get sold to Embracer who basically has gone bankrupt?
Doesn't Embracer control it, rather than Crystal Dynamics? Honestly, frick Crystal Dynamics, here. Injecting themselves into a situation that has fricking zero to do with them just so they can virtue signal.
Crystal Dynamics still control the IP
Jesus Christ what the frick you do gays want.
They managed to dodge the censorship and just add a piece of text at the fricking beginning and you get to do all the fun stuff again, is that not enough?
We have one of the best possible ways to have clean remakes without having to bend the knee to c**ts on social media and you are going to get pissy about it?
>the ogs were disgustingly wacist and horrible but we'll gladly make money off of them
Put your money where your mouth is and stay away from the bad racist TR then.
This is not to virtual signal you fricking moron, this is a way to get away with making a clean remake by just adding text, do you understand that?
All the funny racist shit is still there and you are pissing and moaning because you have to read a piece of text at the start of the game, how much of a baby are you?
Yeah it is.
>the original were bad, icky and gross, we're not like that at all, we just want to make money off of it
Get fricked. There are thousands of lay offs coming and you're next.
If they just wanted to make money and run off they wouldnt have made a single change or would had uses AI to upscale it like the GTA collection.
You dont care about the game, you care about the politics of it, you fricking homosexual, why cant you play a videogame just for the game.
>You dont care about the game, you care about the politics of it
Nice straw man you got there, schizo.
>If they just wanted to make money and run
Nobody said anything about running, disingenuous piece of shit.
have a nice day, slowly and painfully.
Yeah, I care if your nog gay shit gets shoehorned in and I will not buy their products for it.
Deal with it
I'm not buying your racist demakes, shill
Just don't fricking put anything and ignore the loud morons holy shit.
That's not how it fricking works anon, if you don't put anything you subject the product to scrutiny and getting the whole thing removed and losing the chance to create another one.
You have the chance to relieve old classics in modern devices and you are throwing a fit because of text that you wont even read.
I don't think so pal, I think you're projecting too much power to what amounts to a cabal of screeching monkeys that'll get tired of the situation in a week's time.
I thought the SJWs were a figment of our imagination, now you're saying we have to sign the hostage statement or we can't release the game? Curious
>I thought the SJWs were a figment of our imagination
The frick you are getting that from, pulling statements out of the air to fit in your random ass comment?
>if you disagree with them its good, but if you disagree with me you are bad
The American mentality.
You could emulate these ganes fine fir decades if the PC versions are giving you shit we could play them on "modern devices" for a while why frick do you people love buying pozzed versions of old shit?
Yeah, hogwarts totally crashed and burned because all the homosexuals and trannies got really loud about it, oh wait....
Ironically, Hogwarts was obviously way more woke than this appears to be.
You are the reason terrorism works
Capcom did the same with their Battle Network collection
>without having to bend the knee to c**ts on social media
There already up in arms over it.
who the frick is THEY anon? Big Left? Big Trans?, give us a fricking example, and show me how many likes and shares it has.
>without having to bend the knee to c**ts on social media
This gay "compromise" is still bending the knee. We shouldn't need to listen to these twats. They're weaklings who shit themselves whenever they see a mean tweet
>They're weaklings who shit themselves whenever they see a mean tweet
Oh yeah, unlike all the big strong boys in this thread not losing their shit over a single screen of text?
You are just like the weakling you hate.
There have always been mean posts on the internet. Video games were always meant to entertain. The perpetually offended homosexuals are not the same as me, because I enjoy video games. They enjoy safe spaces. You centrist homosexuals are so goddamn dishonest.
You have a full game remade available to entretain you but a "mean screen of text" is making you lose your shit you gay, you dont enjoy videogames, you enjoy the idea of being persecuted, this is the absolute best way to get a re realease that respects the original game enough to not make any changes to its content... but thats not enough for you right? you want more, you want a game to have a political statement and flip those leftards off right?
You are the same pathetic b***h as they are.
I just want the game as it was homie, stop going on schizo rants.
The game is right fricking there you homosexual, show me what was censored, go ahead.
The original game didn't have a warning tho?
A screen is not a censor you homosexual, its just a screen, im telling you, show me what was censored or removed
Game came out with no content removed or censored and you feel you are not respected? What do you want them to say? "Frick Black folk haha am i right?"
>and you feel you are not respected?
Never said that, dishonest moron.
Dishonest is trying to weasel your way out of the original question, what was censored anon, cmon you little baby, give me one thing.
This thread topic isn't about censorship, so the only weasel here is (You).
Schizophrenic post.
Posts like this make me realize just how much the first Assassin's Creed was ahead of it's time.
le enlightened centrist
>"mean screen of text"
There's more of that dishonest bullshit. It's not "mean", it's pathetic, and endemic of a rotting industry that refuses to acknowledge their actual consumers.
It would be fine if the homosexuals who took over the franchise and essentially ran it into the wall wouldn't be calling the original devs pieces of shit in a remaster of a bunch of games they never originally worked on
This guy is very correct.
It's very sad no one backed you up, eh?
>The validity of my statement depends on how many people reply to it
Not that anon but thats the most pathetic shit I read so far.
I destroyed any validity your statement might've had.
If anything you proved that discussing shit here is impossible because there will either be a 14 year old or a pathethic 30+ year-old on the other side.
He knows I agree with him, that's all that matters.
Oh it's remake?
I thought it was a remaster?
What the frick why make the "bad" content again and put a warning on it was he stupid?
It's a remaster.
It's in between a simple remaster and a full remake
They completely redid the assets but use the same level geometry as the original game
Like the Crash Bandicoot revival game
Why do anything
I guarantee this type of behaviour causes more genuine offence than the things they are warning about.
Atleast they kept it in, but frick CD anyway
I suspect this is Crystal Dynamics trying to sabotage the game that ASPIRE made because classic Lara makes them seethe, and you guys are falling for it.
I'm buying the game for Classic Lara. I don't care how moronic CD are. They didn't make this.
Do crystal dynamics decide who gets keys or not? It might explain certain individuals who were given early copies if there wanting it to fail
>pirate game
>install nointro mod
not my problem
Support real tomb raider, b***h
eidos in it's original form no longer exists so there is no one left to support
Support real Lara
Eidos was the publisher not the developer you moron.
>hurru durudurduru fuuut!
Just shut the frick up already. My point still stands, there is no one left to support.
>b-bbutt you said wrong name!
see above
BUY AND SUPPORT TOMB RAIDER REMASTERS
Why? The developers have no faith in it and are ashamed of it. Giving them money will just fund more trash.
Just don't buy the trash then. Let them waste their money.
Again, CD didn't make this game. Aspire did. CD are just shitting on it because they own the rights and don't like classic TR.
It is literally offensive now not to shove 6 billion Black folk into your face
This is silly, but still preferable to shit being censored/removed.
Yeah, good thing the original games still exist.
Exactly. In an ideal world, the dumb disclaimer wouldn't be there. But by the standards of the woke clown world we live in, this is tame af.
Remember, People, the key takeaway from the message is that they are NOT Censoring the game. That's a win in this day and age.
By boycotting this, you're basically telling Embracer that you want more dog fricking Nu-Lara shite and not Classic Lara. Don't lets throw the toys out the pram because of a moronic message from a dev that were barely involved in making this remaster.
Bring me back to when /ss/ was socially acceptable
To the people saying that it isn't a big deal, who cares it appears for two seconds, get over it. Why put it there at all then? The people who would be offended by the game are still going to be offended, it's just insulting customers who spent their money on your "harmful racist" game you are choosing to sell.
Because its a safety net anon, this way people that are not moronic can ignore it and continue enjoying the game and the real morons that complain can be pointed at that screen.
Its a Win-WIn
Because CD are at best, woke virtue signalling morons, and a worst, actively trying to hurt this remaster which was made by Aspire.
I'm unironically not buying it after seeing this
Fu
This!
Will do a charge back so devs looses money, recommend everyone else do the same.
Frick off, Nu-Lara lover. Go wank to horse wieners.
>this is very offensive, but we will still try to make money off of it
Peak clown world. Glad embracer is fricking them hard
I remember 2 having some guys that were real chinesey.
I used to make fun of media that portrayed foreigners with silly accents, but goddamn if seeing educated doctors and nurses I work with absolutely fumble with English and sound utterly moronic whenever a tourist rolls in and they're actually put in the spot hasn't convinced me they need to come back. I almost pissed myself laughing hearing a traumathologist describe a radial head fracture as "arm bone broke, 2 month it back!" to some clueless brit girl.
I work in healthcare in an English speaking country and tons of the foreign doctors can just barely speak it. I'm honestly shocked they were hired, unless the amount of foreigners here is so high that a doctor can make a living just serving Indians or Chinese or whatever they are. Nurses are even worse.
Don't care about none of this.
Playing this collection tonight at midnight on my Switch.
I will also double dip when they announce the physical version.
based
In a time where right wing economic terrorists wipe out trillions of ESG funds, we need to come together to support devs who are on the right side of history
Frick off loser, I'm here to play good vidya.
I do care about this but not enough to stop me playing it.
The people that did this are also the ones that claim 'the right' are the people fighting a culture war
*sigh* looks like another flop lara sisters...
frick off with you homosexualy reddit speech
CD sending shills cause they hate real tomb raider
I unironically think that Crystal Dynamics is intentionally trying to not promote the remasters because they want classic Lara dead and forgotten.
It's because of Embracer Group we are even getting this collection.
Is it possible this story is true?
Yes it is...
>they're inexcusable but we'll keep them in anyway lol
I hate PR language so much.
>This racist game is wrong and you should feel bad for playing it, have fun!
>Please write a 20 page essay on the dangers of colonialism to unlock your game, thank you
nailed it
bet they would have removed it if it was about israelites
+ Nice updated version of classic, well endowed Lara Croft
+ Games look nice
+ Run well across the board according to Digital Foundry.
+ Classic controls and options intact
+ Full games intact and UNCENSORED.
- Dumb woke disclaimer from people that didn't even make the remaster
I never preorder games but I just preordered this. Frick you, CD shills and Nu_Lara lovers. Seethe more.
>preordering a Digital-Only game
Glad I'll never be as stupid as you.
I only preordered it today since I was able to get it 30% off, after seeing near every reviewer basically saying it's a flawless port with zero crashes or bugs, which is fricking rare these days.
They omitted the save crystals. Without them, there is no real difficulty in the game and everyone will be quicksaving before every jump. This murders the games and they’re distracting you with culture war bullshit. Morons.
You could do a permadeath run for the ultimate hardcore challenge?
Fricking pussy devs. Normal people (most players) don't give a shit about that.
At least one reviewer (at PCGamer) got triggered by the content of the games as well.
Who knew that journalists are such snowflakes.
dynamic israelites at it again
I liked the Jagged Alliance 3 content warning, which essentially says that they made offensive jokes back in the '90s and that they're not going to stop.
this is the right result to embalance shit up
first i don't care about tomb raider frick tank controls frick late 1990s
second this is what morons get for wanting remakes and remasters
you don't like the original game anyway so frick you
and you're old enough to stop caring about fricking videogames anyway ffs
>t.gay
Well I'm glad they gave me a reason not to buy it. Really can't stand this shit, why do people feel the need to add their own useless moralizing commentary onto the works of others, work that they could never hope to produce themselves?
>Well I'm glad they gave me a reason not to buy it.
This may be the the worst way to pretend you were ever interested in buying the game in the first place.
What a moron
I guess instead of talking about the quality of remasters themselves, Ganker has gone the usual route of shitposting and controversy-baiting.
Why does that still suprise me?
The game isn't out so the people who have been discussing it up to this stage still have little to add.
This place like a drug den and the drug is outrage.
>Tomb Raider threads up to release have been comfy
>this "warning" drops
>threads devolve into the typical le sjw wokie leftist liberal garbage outrage shitposting
I'm getting too old for this place. Being mad isn't fun, I just wanna discuss videogames.
You just know that Ganker is going to be riding on this "controversy" for weeks to come.
Muh heckin hivemind!
>just ignore it bro, it'll go away
Screaming about it on a message board all day won't solve anything.
>being mean is bad
you're also too much of a homosexual
You're addicted to outrage because you have nothing else going for you in your life. You're a miserable homosexual and it's likely everyone around you hates you. It's just a videogame.
I just showed your post to a friend and he says you're a soft b***h homosexual
Whoa you sure got me, an angry moron on an anonymous imageboard for videogames and his imaginary friend called me a soft b***h homosexual. I hope you learn to live life without your pain and bitterness anon, maybe then you can enjoy things again.
Good goy
Yes, as a Geordie I was very offended by the way they made light of the suffering of my people. Thank you Crystal Dynamics!
I can't wait till midnight to enjoy spending some quality time with big booby Lara again, as we go on safari and shoot some savages.
The rest of Ganker will be sitting seething, playing Baldur's Gay instead because CD put a 2 second disclaimer about muh racism.
>making a new thread
Were you too fricking moronic to read the answers in the first thread?
*puff*...*puff*... Despite being free from European oprression for milllennia.... *puff*... *puff*... Tribes scattered around Africa...
god I can't wait to see those luscious lips wrapped around canine penis.
These warning labels are getting more moronic and condescending but the real question is: will the game be fricking good or just another cash grab with tinted nostalgia glasses.
It's good.
It sounds pretty good. Runs well apparently. Faithful, uncensored recreation of the classics. After watching a few videos, I preordered it this evening (which i normally never do) just to save 10%.
GAME OF THE YEAR 2024 for sure not like any game actually made in 2024 can compete.
So does Lara still have to wait a sec to jump even in the modern controls?
I heard they updated TR1 to have TR2 jump controls.
Behead modern game devs. Behead modern gamers.
Waiting for mod to remove disclaimer.
Just delete yourearacist.mov from the game's files.
Yikes
>glad we get the warning
>still playing it anyway
Such hypocrisy.
I'm 70% sure that guy was making fun of him but its pretty hard to tell
Wonder what they would have done if the warning wasn't here.
Probably would've gone outside and done a heckin racism because they don't know any better and just copy what they see on their TV
>yikes that is hecking gross my guy
GO BACK homosexual
>yikes that is hecking gross my guy
Wait people unironicaly write like this?
Regardless, covering their asses with a gay disclaimer will always be preferable to altering anything.
Looking forward to the mod that removes this.
Just edit the .ini file or remove the file you tech illiterate.
oh boy are we in for another round of people on here crying about the preservation of the games? don't want censorship, but you all cry about something as minor as this
The warning is just embarrassingly hamhanded.
so what? would you prefer they change the games instead? quit fricking crying homosexual, this is the best case scenario, you just want to cry about nothing.
ok. sorry.
>don't want censorship
Correct, and I also don't want moral whinging from degenerate devs. Do your job and remaster the games, don't tell me how I'm supposed to feel about them.
cry more diaper baby, if you can't handle even a few seconds of a disclaimer you don't need to take seriously you deserve to never be happy about any media release
I can see you're upset but I'm simply not giving you my money. Cope.
Crystal Dynamics didn't even make the remaster. They've literally slapped their gay disclaimer on someone else's work.(Aspire).
Whinging pussies necessitated the disclaimer because they absolutely would've cried about it if they're wasn't one.
>implying they aren't crying about it regardless
>add the disclaimer and word it so you virtue signal as hard as possible
>still get attacked by your peers
kek
I always wonder why people bother entertaining these morons. They literally don't even play video games. They just make up shit for an outrage article or they make up shit for an indie game they like.
This will led to some confussion since CD is not the developer neither the publisher.
>first word I read
>oof
These people sound like parodies of themselves
>STOP CENSORING GAMES, JUST PUT CONTENT WARNINGS ON THEM
>devs put in content warning in game
>REEEEEEE NOT LIKE THAT
They did both.
nudity is overrated. the bikini is sexier.
still censorship.
it's not out yet
I agree with it so it's not.
The original is still in the game
>JUST PUT CONTENT WARNINGS ON THEM
I never said this.
Who said this line?
Also, Dawn makes me want to do unspeakable things.
What a moronic thing to say.
>your only options are cucked thing or even more cucked thing
>why are you mad?
I hate redditors so much it's unreal
Did you cry about "viewers discretion is advised" messages in TV shows too?
I don't think it's worth getting worked up over but the tone of these things has become far more self-congratulatory over the past decade, and usually inserted into the text *itself* rather than on the cover/platform it's accessed through. If I were seriously offended enough by racial stereotypes, or violence, or sex for it to *dissuade me from playing*, I'd want to know before I put money down on it, not once I'd parted ways with my cash and booted it up.
"Viewer discretion is advised" makes zero value judgements, moron. This sort of statement is explicit in it's smearing of the original dev team and you by proxy for having enjoyed their work. Only an absolute cuck would actually hand over $30 to be lectured on their moral failings everytime they boot a fricking video game.
>lectured
nta but calm down, moron. a fricking slide that lasts a couple of seconds isn't lecturing anyone.
>isn't lecturing anyone
Nta, but it literally is. Lookup the definition of lecture, zoomer.
Stop b***hin and start playing
Anyone have a clip of Lara getting Oscar'd?
the offensive stereotype that women are allowed outside
>removed the boob jiggle
lol not buying this garbage
There was never boob jiggle idiot
*Pyramid Warble
>he thinks the average Ganker outrage shitposter was even alive to play the original games
That was a feature introduced in the LAU trilogy, Older computers hadn'rt enough RAM to manage jiggling.
please tell me you're not allowed to esc past that
It stays up for 50 seconds with no way to skip every time the game boots to ensure you read the whole thing every time.
You can esc it but the game crashes if you do.
You can mash though it.
Copy pasted from Disney...word by word(except CD)
>Disney
WB has been using the same disclaimer since like 2005 for their Looney Tunes releases
it wasn't disney you moron.
Disney doesn't do disclaimers, they just straight up butcher the source material.
They do on Disney+

us millenials Chads got to enjoy the peak of videogames and now we will destroy them so zoomers can break free of the cycle
What the frick? At this point anything that doesn't actively praise homosexuals and feminism is considered offensive. At least devs found a clever excuse to keep everything true to the original, rather than censoring shit.
GAME IS READY TO LAUNCH FELLAS
FRICK YEAH
See you haters later.
by the way, the warning is immediately skippable with the A button
This. Just ignore it. I'm sure it won't get worse.
Where? It's not on gog or steam.
Epic Games Store
Oh. I guess I'll check my torrent client tomorrow, good night.
Can you post a quick screenshot of the file structure of the game/what format everything is in? Specifically want to know about the PC version.
wait which one is bullshit?
xbox
bros why do i have to wait longer than everyone else?
Nintendo tax is real
Yeah dude. They were made during an extremely toxic and insensitive time in Western civilization that stereotyped females as having breasts.
What they really want to say
its this
a stereotype just flew over my house
Sorry bros but this is not nearly enough outrage for me to cancel my preorder. 7 hours from now im gonna toke up and go in full immersion
Sorry bro your gay ass stoner shit made me cancel my preorder.
c'mon i can't even for my brand new game? 🙁 it's a special occasion
Ok I repreordered it.
Imagine being mad at this like CD was.
hot
Reminds me of the old lucozade commercial where the dogs had fully modelled dicks.
Oh man, they're putting these front slates in video games remasters now? That's bleak.
>something in game doesn't get "censored"
>still complain about it on Ganker
you guys are such fricking babies.
Buy the remaster or kys
>offensive depictions of people and cultures rooted in racial and ethnic prejudices
The literal first 10 minutes of SotTR start in Mexico during Dia de los Muertos because that's the second thing westoids know about Mexico, probably because they watched Coco.
So if you go to an egypt level and theres mummy enemies thats offensive?
Yes.
Also, having an attractive woman in your game is offensive.
depictions similar with reality are racist
depictions where anyone brown is a brain surgeon is acceptable
Oh my God shut the frick up and go change your diaper Jesus Christ. You're as b***h made as an sjw good lord.
I was wondering of thats what they think offensive is
>he said while going into an autistic meltdown
Are you guys still shitting your pants over sn I tried you can remove in the files and just simply skip?
>lara wanders around the desert committing crime until armed guards take her to area 51
cant believe tomb raider promoted this harmful stereotype
Yes, but it shouldn't be surprising. Almost all video games have racist or fascist subtext and should be rewritten or purged.
Which one has the farting butler I can trap in the fridge?
3
2
1 lets jam
Probably. Question is, who actually gives a shit and who actually blames Crystal Dynamics for it? Frick, they've probably done worse with Gex, which they did actually make. Who cares?
Sounds like you all need a trigger warning for messages about trigger warnings. LMAO
That's mean, why would you say that?
This is what low media literacy does to society.
made to appease north americans and their ilk i see, still a better option than getting censored.
If they actually changed shit, it would bother me. Since they're not, i'll buy it.
Sure, it's a dumb fricking message they added, but its not effecting my experience.
See
There will come a time when even Zoomies and Alphashitters get tired of these homosexuals.
I combed through this entire b***h's stream just to confirm they didn't do any "sneak censorship" despite the content warning.
Yes, Dr. Willard still calls that one other scientist moronic and the tribesmen don't have any changes as well.
Any word on the voice quality? I remember it sounding like it was 22khz or some shit on the original in DOS.
I gotta admit, I would have bet anything this gets censored. Really does feel like Aspyr got thrown under the bus by Crystal.
At least put some effort in and recreate the scene using TR5's map editor.
Stereotypes exist for a reason.
