She's an old school Archeologist(read: basically a fancy thief), not a Zoologist/Paleontologist.

    I always wondered why there are weapons and health packs lying around in unexplored caves.

    the first Lara was unapologetically an asshole. she lived in a mansion that most world leaders can't have in their dreams. it's not like she was stealing out of necessity. she had a fucking butler and still went out to disturb world heritage sites and steal or destroy everything in them. just for fun.

    Fake! You don't get the shotgun until two levels later!

    I know you're joking but thanks to the Internet, I can confirm you do get the shotgun in the lost valley stage where dinosaurs are found. Now that I read up on it, the funniest part to me is that this meme might have actually chose a shotgun for that reason, especially since apparently you can totally take on a T-Rex with a shotgun.

    Why wouldn't you be able to take on a T-Rex with a shotgun? It's not like it has metal armor or lacks vital organs.

    To be fair, it's self defense. There is no way to de-agro the T-Rex or raptors.

    For a regular person, maybe, but archeologists deal with dinosaur stuff all the time.

    Is this the plot of the new Jurassic World movie?

    Lara Croft was still better than Rebirth.

    It can't be worse than those Chris Pratt ones, can it?

    I watched it. It's worse. There were too many side stories and none of them really fit together.

    It's got Gareth Edwards on board at least. I'll probably give it a watch at some point just for that. Plus action hero Chris Pratt is the worst Chris Pratt. I liked him better when he was fat.

    I don't think I've ever seen anyone more out of their depth than Colin Trevorrow. A real shame that, because I actually enjoyed Safety Not Guaranteed.

    Then the artifact what?

    Tomb raider came out six years after the Jurassic Park movie so Lara Croft knew what she was doing.

    Oh hey, a meme specific to my recent interests (playing classic TR)

    Lara must be a poacher in her free time or something because she is way too good at blasting every lifeform that gets in her way.

    I mean, she's literally a grave robber and thinks that's an honourable career. So definitely believable.

    There's also a good chance she's killed people who were trying to prevent their sacred tombs from being desecrated.

    Well the same level where she blasts more chimps than the Cincinnati Zoo, a rival tomb raider confronts Lara and she just takes him out like another monkey.

    She is definitely a little underrepresented when it comes to death machine 90s game protagonists, pair her with Duke Nukem or Doomguy and she could hold her own.

    Destroying the sacred culture of Indigenous people her country genocided is more profitable than some lame dinosaurs.
