In every single modern tomb raider game you are SAVING artifacts from bad guys who are blasting holes in mountains and destroying entire villages to claim them for themselves
Nobody who's played any of these games would look at that and go "actually she shouldn't get herself involved in this" that's just r-slurred

What do you mean "modern"? The original 1996 game has you stopping a corporate executive from using an artifact to unleash an army of monsters on the world. Basically every other game from the Core Design era follows a similar plot where you stop some cult or corporation from using artifacts to destroy the planet.

So the idiot brown third-worlders cannot solve their own problems, huh? This is white saviourism, Lara should do better and not meddle.

I say modern because I'm talking about the current devs/owners who MADE those games and still made this decision
But yes they should have also played the older ones
