Maybe we'll get some figures from it?
I liked when stories had people go out on adventures, instead of everything being tied to someone's past, or family.

Ha opposite here, the fact it's animated actually interests me, good on them not trying another live action thing, since the most recent one is a thing nobody saw and nobody remembered.
My main issue with the second reboot trilogy was whiny/confused Lara who was far cry from her more cynical bad ass over confident version from previous iterations, this at first glance does seem like it leans into that bad assery type more than games did, which is definitely a plus, and might serve as long awaited character evolution for this version albeit too late.
New Lara Croft figure series capturing all her game looks from 90s to modern day would be pretty good, but it seem like rights holder have very passive attitude towards Lara action figures and merch in general.

Idk man I like the art style. Also its a continuation of the modern game series so doing live action wouldnt really work. I liked those games (even moreso than the old ones) so Ill give it a watch ?

Netflix tried making live-action series from comics and video games and they haven't had any luck with them.
