me too. Sorry guys but I'm old school tomb raider. Lara didn't need someone in her home doing all the research for her and interrupting the game play with their pointless chatter and jokes. I can't tell you how frustrating it is when I'm about to make Lara jump and Alister pipes in about "Oh no! that looks dangerious, you should turn back!"

I wish he got shot in the head. His death was not pointless. He was a weakling. Zip being in a little better shape only survived not being killed but still got shot in the leg.

The silence while exploring is a big plus for me.

to quote Lara from TR Legend. "No distractions boys."

I agree: with all this tension being build up in Legend with Avalon being so legendary and so hard to reach I would expect a supernatural world: a sort of heaven, something utterly magnificent. It was a bit of a anticlimax that it turned out to be just another cave underground: and so was Xibalba and Hellheim and whatnot. It still was awesome, but for different reasons than I would prefer...

I liked him too, and his death served really no purpose at all, which makes it even more absurd... Still, in my view everything could work out if next time Lara finds any way to meet his and her parents spirits. Say, a level that takes place in a mental realm, in which her spirit travels to heaven for a short time so she can have a little chat with Alister and her parents and then her mother can tell her that she looks down from heaven upon her and has always been proud, you know... That would bring some happy-endingness to this horrible tragedy...

While i think thats highly unlikely to happen, I do agree SOMETHING good needs to happen to Lara.
This last game left her with absolutely nothing. ):

unless it involves bringing mother or father back or even

Well. I have forgiven Eidos and Crystal.

Even though I am still EXTREMELY MAD about Alister.

How can you like him. His voice is creepy and he flirts with Zip . I'm glad he's dead and I never want to see him again! He's dead!!!!!! Awsome decision Eric Lindstorm and CD!! Best move so far!!!!!!!! (HA! )

I will also miss Alister, he had the ocasional fits but he was part of the team.
I dont hate them for doing that, I'm just angry with them cos its just not going to be the same without him there.

I hate them for more than killing Alister. They can not wrap up a story to save their lives. That was such a terrible story I dont think there is a word strong enough.

What a waste..what a waste

It was a huge waste of time, and money. But I have forgiven CD, because they were rushed by Eidos.

I don't HATE Eidos, but I think laying off Eric and the other 29 people who worked their butts off to make TRU is more of a reason to dislike them than to kill off a character that not too many people really liked all that much.
d:

Just my two cents.

@Redfos: What do you mean they can't wrap up the story? After Underworld, they said that would be the end of the whole long lost mother/Avalon search.
Where have you been?
