Hi folks from this subreddit. I come here with a single question for i have yet to find a satisfying answer. Why in Tomb Raider 1 do we start playing the game with the camera on the right side instead of the camera behind Lara Croft ?

Core Design had all the possibilities to make the players start with the usual camera but didn't. I can't imagine something less than a design decision since TR was so innovative at the time like : "oh let's make the player start from the side as they are used to and then let's have a wow effect by moving the camera behind !".

Has this question been answered somewhere on the internet ?
