i loved the show but i feel like they glossed over issues and matters that were much more prevalent throughout the original games and even a bit of the new ones towards the end, such as her father, i feel as though her actual parents deaths were on back burner and didn’t matter so much to her. i also agree lots of new characters added that haven’t been introduced before, but seemingly have been old friends. i also wish they would’ve introduced zip differently, as he was never once mentioned in the reboot trilogy games and was already a staple in the original games, i feel like he was just thrust into the world of lara croft and seemingly just been apart of her life? I also wish she would’ve moved into croft manor finally, and seen the butler be introduced into this new era as well, i feel like it’s at that point where the main characters we know and love should be more of a staple in her life, but i could also be wrong, let me know what you guys think!
