You know how they thought the way to fix Tomb Raider was to make Lara less superheroine and more Uncharted's Nathan Drake? That's what RWBY feels like now. Yes, jumping over a cliff is "cool", I guess. But doing a backflip off a wall with two guns and shooting everyone is cooler. And they said "Oh this is Lara in her early years." But they know they have no intention to make Lara because the sexy gunslinging acrobat she was. I'm not on the edge of my seat when I see Lara now. And that's true with RWBY. Oum's fight had me rewinding the vid over and over to see every hit or block. Now it's like "....oh a fight happen...oh well... it's over.... More talking and characters trying to 'find' themselves."

(FYI I don't where people get this notion that teen always need to go on some self-discovery coming of age story or always wanna fit in, because I'm 31 and I never went through that. All I wanted to do as a preteen and teen was prove everyone wrong that I was easily broken. I took everything lift threw at me, and it hurt, but I'm still fighting. Now that's a teen story.)
