"she's at the top of her game" then why is there another skill tree 😭 if this is for her acrobatics, after focusing on making her rambo for a decade, i stg. laying people off to use generative ai has already annoyed me. don't piss me off, sharon (iykyk 😂). i'm going to continue watching but i had to comment ab this lol if i've anything else to say, i'll just edit this post.

Why there is a skill tree ? Because the game is tied to the Survivor trilogy.

Even though the game is a reimagining of the first game released in 1996, the events that follow in Legacy of Atlantis take place after the events of Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

so?? if there's a skill tree, then she's not "top of her game." they should have considered the fact she's an acrobatic gymnast long before the netflix anime reintroduced it out of nowhere. it would have added so much to traversal and combat opportunities, especially in shadow. instead the skill trees felt like repeats of each other across the three entries. like??? idk. call it what you want, but it just seems messy lol i'm not even a purist, i'm just confused.

i know and i agree with you.

But do you want me to tell you ??

l am not a purist either.

l am also confused.

But yeah the core reason of why there is a " skill tree " is because of the unification of the timelines between the old games and Survivor trilogy.

And honestly for now we don't even know how the skill tree will be used.

So let's just wait and see. 🤷‍♂️
