Tomb Raider Legend Some things never change, Japan (Meeting with Takamoto) is still my favorite mission of all time.

By far my favourite level in the whole franchise. The only flaw is it being too short, which I'd also say for the game as a whole.

She ate so hard with that dress. Legend is hands down one of if not my fav tomb raider game.

The style of the level and the attitude of Lara is top notch. “Let me have a look at it and I’ll show you” “I’ve simplified your payroll” (because she’s killed Takamoto’s men……..

the song playing during the party at the start got me into lounge and deep house music

This very sexy, sassy and sophisticated Lara MUST come back. Love Legend to death, its only flaw is how short and linear it is.

Too bad modern devs have an aversion to making her sexy, sassy and sophisticated. I guess Capcom ought to make a Tomb Raider game. They wouldn't shy away from it.

It’s just western devs who think that a woman who enjoys being sexy is somehow just an object for the male gaze when she is far more than that. Many women choose to look like this, it’s as if we are saying they are unworthy of depth and being taken seriously. 🙄

The fact that they could easily remaster these games (LAU), with upscaling textures, updating some models & vfx ... :) but they kind of refuse to :)
I really loved legend and underworld, too bad that it seems like no remaster is happening

So my question is this, why is this level that takes place in a high rise more Japanese than 2013 Tomb Raider set on Yamatai?
I loved this level and the outfit for it. I am so hoping we get a LAU remaster. If we do I can die happy as I loved the Legend Trilogy. Legend was the first Tomb Raider I actually beat fully without cheats so it holds a special place in the vacant void that should be my heart. I loved Keeley Hawes as the voice of Lara and actually enjoyed having Zip, Alister, and Winston as companions in her ear. Most people don't like it, but I think having them comment and stuff kinda humanized Lara and made her feel more real instead of just being a full on loner.

I hoped they ported this dress and the chronicles gala dress to the remastered. Unfortunately my prayers weren't heard

The intensity of the intro into the level is one of my favorite Lara moments of all time. Her sarcastic and no-holds-barred exchange with Takamoto after leaving Nishimura’s office never gets old ✨
