Rhianna had the following to say:
So, I'm packing up my climbing axe plus a little venison jerky for the road, and bidding a fond farewell to Lara. Onwards to new adventures!

But, I like to think we did some good things. Maybe shifted the gaming landscape a wee bit. And that feels damn good.

I also want to thank TR's terrific fan community. You really are the best in the world. Constantly helping me remember why I do this job.
