Wow, that sucks. I hate it when they do stuff like that. At least point those things out properly.
I think it mostly worked because Tomb Raider was mostly dark and mature anyways, and barely anyone would remember or care about the originals. They were honestly a little bit forgettable. Like, I know it’s because of the huge boobs, and kind of violent death scenes or death sounds, and that’s really all I remember about them. They kind of made a game that has the same thing, but with less boobs and more story to it.
I really really didn’t like that they restricted play to a few graphics cards and didn’t say, in big bold letters, buy this graphics card for lara’s hair or you wont be able to play it for two years, and you’ll invest your time to the second wolf cave and have to spend a month trying to fix it.
Mind you, Good game, It just needed a little less stupid errors.
Tomb Raider worked pretty well, I think. But that’s about the only one I can think of right now.
I see. But yeah alot of “dark & gritty” reboots don’t always work.
Oh, I wasn’t talking about the comics. The comics are awesome. I was thinking more along the lines of all the gritty and dark game reboots lately. DMC comes to mind.
S’okay dude! c=
Yeah, you’re probably right. I guess all the people bashing the comics are getting to me.
You’re both really over-thinking it. It’s to make RD sound a lot more nerdy.
In order to do so, You need to have the character have an extreme bias on decisions that writers do, or that choices do.
In actuality, the whole grimdark thing was in reference to a lot of series of games and movies meaning to do a more dark and mature approach for a series, and having it get completely ruined by the adaptation, then having it flop both in the execution, and financially.
Some comic adaptions of things go down that road, (see the “darker & edgier” page on TV tropes) sometimes it works, (like with the case with Sonic, it was well-accepted, as they didn’t overdo it, and kept it family-friendly) while other cases, not so much. (Like with the grim-dark “Thundercats” comic they did for awhile, that tried to be to “grown-up.”)
Though, I don’t think the MLP comic is that overly “dark/mature” if this is that is what this is implying, or if this is meant as a “take that” against the IDW series.
