Its a sort of forgotten trait of hers but technically Lara is Lady Croft at least as far as I remember. So the ability to hobnob with the upper crust - who the fuck else has access to the kind of rare relics or information she needs to do her thing - is not something to be dismissed out of hand.Sophie Turner as Lara Croft
‘Tomb Raider’ First Look: Sophie Turner Becomes Lara Croft as Filming Starts on Prime Video’s Reboot Series
Prime Video has unveiled a first look at the 'Tomb Raider' live-action series, showing Sophie Turner as Lara Croft.variety.com
Costume is accurate, almost slavishly so even. Tho got my doubts about the casting choice. Lara Croft does not exactly need much thespian skill, but some charisma and physical presence is, and I find Turner lacks both. Maybe it'll be more convincing in motion.

Say what you will about the movies, but especially the Angelina Jolie films grasped that.
I'm not into plastic surgery.
She's a fucking idiot. Anya Taylor Joy foolishly had the same thing done to her cheeks. That fat comes off by itself through a person's twenties. Weaklings.
Not my comment, but... 29 year old woman spent thousands to look like she's in her fifties.

In my thirties, still waiting for the fat to go away in my cheeks. Then again, I have fat everywhere, why should my cheeks be immune?

Hero shooter Highguard reportedly didn't even pay for the Game Awards slot that's earned it so much preemptive hate—the showrunners thought it deserved the spotlight
Highguard's trailer landed with a thud at 2025's biggest award show, but it didn't pay for the privilege.

Do I think the game is still gonna fail? Yes.
But if this is true, then I feel so bad for the devs; People still would've groaned, but it wouldn't have received as much harsh words had it been announced earlier during the show.
To the showrunners or whoever organized the reveal order.... REALLY?
It deserves to fail. It's a slop game with shitty character design and game design that's just a copy and paste of any other hero shooter out there. I'm sure there are talented coders on the dev team, but there are zero creative people there making a game they believe it.Hero shooter Highguard reportedly didn't even pay for the Game Awards slot that's earned it so much preemptive hate—the showrunners thought it deserved the spotlight

The publisher doesn't even believe in it because that game is launching in like 1 week and there are zero advertisements on it.
Stop letting share holders design game and let artists and game designers make what they want to make.
Good luck with that on most of AAA gaming. The shareholders or those constantly trying to please their every whim, never learn. It's exactly why I prefer indie most of the time.
I mean this is exactly the stuff that causes these companies to lay-off or completely shutdown 1000's of developers. They make these people make dogshit, then fired them when the bullshit ddoesn't sell.
*shocked Pikachu*
No argument there. I'm just saying what could've been a forgettable dumpster fire turned into a California wildfire that night.
Game over for Atari-themed hotel in Las Vegas
The planned hotel chain is still moving forward with its Phoenix location, which is slated to open in 2028.

Wow, you mean a poorly-marketed landscape project, on top of idea itself being kinda stupid, ended in a failure? Who could've seen that coming? /s
On the plus side, I'm kinda glad this project ended before it got any further

Sales for The Outer Worlds 2 are poor. Presumably, less than 1M units almost 3 months after launch, across all platforms. In comparison, the first game sold approx 2M units during the same time. A sequel selling less is bad. Bad for the studio, publisher, the IP's future. 🧵

Obsidian Entertainment made 1 good game and that was only by direct comparison to Bethesda's version of the same game. New Vegas is only good because it's better than Bethesda's game, otherwise Obsidian is an incredibly "mid" studio that people really need to stop glazing because New Vegas was decent. They even sold the first Outer Worlds by say "From the guys that made New Vegas".
It seems they can't ride on New Vegas' coattails anymore because their boring bland games aren't selling anymore.
I dunno, I'm quite fond of Pillars of Eternity as well. And KOTOR 2 is solid even if it doesn't truly become "great" without the Restored Content mod...which was mostly just activating and putting together the work that Obsidian had partially completed before the publisher rushed it out the door, then refused to let them patch in and complete afterwards because the patch couldn't be made available on the Xbox. Oh, and South Park: Stick of Truth is generally considered to be at least a good game mechanically even if you find South Park humor crude.Daniel Camilo (@DanielOlimac)

Sad to see they're sequel not sell well at all. I had no interest in either game but there was clearly an audience for these types of games. So let's not be too negative on the people.Daniel Camilo (@DanielOlimac)

I think there are highlights around sure. But games like Pillars and South Park aren't GOTY 10/10's either. Like i said, Obsidian is really good at being "okay". Sometimes a little more than "okay" and never bad either. I also think that who ever is running them is pushing them too far, I mean Avowed and Outer Worlds 2 as two big RPG's to release in the same year? That's a lot for any studio let alone a Obsidian.
But you didn't say that Fallout: New Vegas was their only 10/10 GOTY. You said it was their only good game. Are we really at the point as gamers where a game has to be one of the best games to be considered good? I do agree about Outer Worlds being a let-down, for the record. Haven't played Avowed or Outer Worlds 2, but they are definitely seeming to scream of a company with talent being pushed too hard by a publisher that doesn't understand game development beyond spreadsheets.
I was about to raise my finger and say "But what about Knights of the Old Republic 2?", but then I remembered the rushed launch and the cut content; I feel like the only reason why KOTOR 2 is so highly regarded today is because of the restored content mod by a fanDaniel Camilo (@DanielOlimac)

I played both games. Avowed is okay, and Outer Worlds kept crashing to desktop so i refunded it, but the sales suggest it's not interesting to people as a whole.
New Vegas is not a 10/10 either btw. I think New Vegas is over rated as fuck, but it gets well remembered because it is WAY better than Bethesda's games. Bethesda is shit and has always been shit tbh. Giant but utterly shallow games that relay on fans making the games fun rather than making good games themselves. As a result Obsidian made New Vegas and it's pretty good so people suck it's dick because it's really the only good Fallout since the original games to this very day.
