I know that literally every single person who has played the original Tomb Raider series knows who this man is.
I know that literally every single person who has played the original Tomb Raider series has always considered him "annoying".
I know that literally every single person who has played the original Tomb Raider series has always locked him in the fridge.
For the longest time, before I stumbled across game forums and such on the internet, I thought I was the only one who knew to do this when the butler just started to get on my nerves. Seriously, this guy just walks around, following you wherever you go. Sure you out run him greatly, sure he doesn't follow you when you start climbing up random places and such... But he just follows you, and makes unsettling sounds as if he's about to take his last breath.
You don't interact with him. You can walk up to him, but he does absolutely nothing. It isn't until the third game where he becomes an actual target in the obstacle course. I'm assuming Edios realized how much we fans just couldn't stop putting him in the fridge after years of annoying us with the constant following. They decided to let us barrage him with bullets.
But of course, this was during the FUN years of Tomb Raider. Now we're just... discovering HOW we became the Lara Croft we know. Well... I wouldn't really say that she's turning into the Lara Croft we knew back in the 90s because this is a totally different Lara Croft.
You get the picture.
