Reviews for Tomb Raider Forever

Hello!
Can I just start this off by saying I created an account for this website JUST so I could drop you a review/message, because wow this story is amazing.
I know this story is pretty old by now (last updated 2012?) but can I just say I would absolutely LOVE to see an epilogue or a sequel series of some sort, especially one that delves deeper into Duke and Lara’s relationship.
Ok, let me unpack for a second: I'm a relatively younger viewer (still 20+ though) and I'd never heard of this website, I just happened upon this story while randomly googling Lara/Duke content for the millionth time in my life, not expecting to find anything yet again because wow not only is this a surprisingly rare ship but also I'd never seen ANYONE share my idea of the characters' characterizations before. Anyway somehow, even though I’ve been a fan of this couple for years and years, I finally stumbled upon this fic and let me say not only did it make my night but also probably my entire year.
First of all I can’t believe how well you wrote them!!! It makes me so happy! I HIGHLY disagree with some of these other comments you’ve gotten, asking for more assholish behavior from the pair, because let’s be honest while Duke and Lara have always been over the top figures, they’ve also always had hearts. Big hearts. And the way you’ve written them falling for each other feels so natural and so nice! I was almost expecting her to finally take off his glasses at the end and return the “I love you”. Absolutely amazing stuff. I love how you didn’t write Duke as an overly stupid brick wall of a person.
I ESPECIALLY love how well you handled their dynamic during the sex scenes. And what amazing sex scenes they were! I was completely invested in the plot (what a perfect setting! Porn WITH plot!), and there was actual tension that had me on the edge of my seat. I love how you foreshadowed things like Lara figuring out the altars probably wanted them to climax at the same time, which is why I immediately knew the blowjob wouldn’t work. Speaking of which, I really really love how you had Lara take charge, especially in scenes like that. Throughout the whole thing, Lara was never degraded, never made to feel lesser, and I really appreciate that! I know that’s not too high of a bar to clear, but with what else I’d seen of this couple I had my hopes pretty low. But you went above and beyond! Lara would absolutely be the top in the dynamic, and I’m so glad you went that way! Let’s be fair, there’s no one who drinks respect women juice more than Duke freaking Nukem.
Some other highlights off the top of my head that also deserve praise… Duke passing out! Lara disinfecting everything! The “but there was only one bed” trope! Them drinking together! (oh they would ABSOLUTELY be drinking buddies) Just them being buddies in general! It felt like a good, healthy relationship! Also the end when they fight WHILE fucking and swap who tops depending on reloading??? ICONIC.
Anyway I hope this sudden 2020 note doesn’t overwhelm you or anything, I was just really happy to finally see these characters together AND also so in character! (or at least, what I consider in character)
As a final note, would you ever maybe consider posting this work and similar ones to AO3? It's an amazing site for fanfiction, and I'd love to keep this story bookmarked there! But if not that's completely understandable.
I hope this reaches you and I hope you have a nice day!

I'd like to ask that Lara ends up pregnant, that the mystical energies of the pyramids restored her womb to fertility, cause let's face it, with the genes of Lara Croft and Duke Nukem we got the future generation of every scifi hero ever, I'd count Master Chief, Commander Shepard and all those other great heroes as possible descendants of these ass kicking humans.

What a fun read! Very comedic especially in the beginning. Will there be an epilogue?

Glad to finally see this chapter. This was a good climax if that's what it is. If this is the end of the story it was a good ending, even if it took several years to get to. I don't really agree with the above commenter. I kind of liked the way the mushy stuff was done. It was always fun and enjoyable. I thought Croft came off as a pretty seductive character here from the writer's descriptions. Honestly, the reason I liked this story is because it didn't have any really nasty stuff in it like humiliation, gang banging, etc. I think it had the right level of kink, I mean in the last chapter, they were screwing while fighting monsters, that's pretty cool.

If there is more to come with this story, great, if not I'm glad we got this chapter and if it ends here, this was as good of an ending as any.

Talk about your big "badda-bing, badda-bang and badda-boom"--more like "bed-to-bing, bed-to-bang, bed to go BOOM!" The pyramids had to be worked one piece at a time to launch the weapon--bigger than anything a single person could carry, and more powerful than even a spacecraft armada could do. Nice! Yup, Disneyland and a few rides in Epcot and Space Mountain sound good :)

Nice! Duke and Lara save the world while getting laid at the same time. Only they could do that. LOL!

Well, how do I put this?

The story had amazing potential that I think it failed to realize. The highlight was the waterfall scene, and it was precisely at that point that I got hooked. However, later on it turned out this isn't my story at all. Of course it's not, it's your story. You also got enough praise for it already, so let me say what I didn't like.

Lara is not sexual enough. Having her looks and attitude, she is in all likelihood fully aware of her own body and psychology--and how to use them. She is seductive, definitely far from shy, and she is probably quite experienced in the art of sex. Your Lara isn't any of these things. Never done doggy style before? Really?

Mushy. At some point things start getting mushy and it goes downhill from there. But if that's your thing, that's your thing. I think it would have been better if Lara just used Duke for sex, and to help her get what she wants and escape. And that's it. But I guess you wanted to wed those two. This is fail in my book, but again, this is your book.

Variety. The sex, while creative, is basically just intercourse. Yes, there is some oral thrown in there, even some titfucking (which was great btw, I salute you there), but mostly, it's just vanilla sex. I don't know what you have planned for next, but with a woman like Lara there are so many possibilities. Then again, your portrayal of her doesn't really allow for what I have in mind. Extensive oral sex, dirty talk, anal, rough sex, humiliation role play, and so on. A sexual Lara would be down with that, especially with the likes of Duke Nukem. But you choose the mushy path for your story, which is fine. Not if you look at CD Lara of course, since she is a *very* seductive woman and there is no mushiness there, just pure sex.

One more objective criticism would be name usage. Lara said this, Duke said that, Lara said, Duke said. How about 'said Lara'? Even better, how about some variety? Try 'the tomb raider' instead of Lara, 'the adventuress', 'the brunette', and for Duke, 'the big man', 'the muscle man', whatever. You don't have to add who said or asked what after every quotation mark, either. Sometimes just a simple line with nothing else works better. And adjectives. I don't know how many times I encountered 'massive' and 'enormous' and wished you would have used 'colossal' or 'humongous' or any number of synonymous adjectives to make your vocabulary more varied. Use a thesaurus if you must.

Other than that, congratulations on your story. It's a good effort, and it certainly has its appeal.

It's been a while but thanks a lot for the update. Great chapter and I thought it was fun that they had to do while stuck against a wall hanging on over a bottomless pit. Hope we will finally get some revelations about what happens next. Really looking forward to the next chapter. This has been a great series.

Great chapter. It's nice to see physical attributes come into play after having them so heavily emphasized throughout. The idea of unspoken love and explicitly expressed lust is great fun to read and I hope it continues to be so.

Happy to see this story updated. Interesting that Forever is finally coming out and about the anticipation of Lara's prequel/reboot. Again, wonderful protrayal and writing on these legendary characters.

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this story was updated and I almost couldn't believe it. It's been quite a while since this was last updated, but better late than ever. No disrespect to you Tycho, you write some of the stories around, but sometimes wait inbetween is super-sized where I almost wonder if you've abandoned the stories are not. Still between this, your DOA story, and your new Jedi Knight/Star Wars/Kyle Katarn story you continue to pump out great work. I just wish there was a slightly shorter wait inbetween everything.

This was an awesome, satisfying chapter. I'm glad that Duke and Lara get along even when they aren't having sex. The scene where Duke gets supplies from his wrecked ship followed by a campfire drinking session with Lara was fun and humorous. It's odd that these characters have become sort of cute with each other in a way. I thought it was really funny when Lara asked about Duke's last name. The scene in the altar was fun and extremely hot. However at the same time, I am almost dreading what Lara and Duke's next challenging altar will be. In chapter 4 it was a live volcano and chapter 5 it was a room filling up with water. I just hope the last one isn't like spikes or a boulder or something.

Intriguing mystery with the alien observing Duke and Lara. He appears to be a malevolent character and I'm curious if Duke and Lara by activating the next device are only falling into the alien's weapon or trap. I hope Duke and Lara realize their mistake if they've made one and manage to stop him. Anyway, I like Duke and Lara together. So please keep up the great work and update this story again soon. This is by far the best Tomb Raider/Duke Nukem story ever.

Hell Yeah! More TRF is a great way to start the day off right. If only the real Duke Nukem Forever had a Lara cameo or crossover, the game would be perfect.

So, we've got one more altar to reactivate, then this superweapon? I for one, can't wait to see just how Duke and Lara make use of her mansion after the world is saved. Lara is bound to get addicted to the Duke, even more than she is now, and no doubt that the Duke is going to enjoy it every bit.
