Could it be me, or last I checked this was a Tomb Raider (TR) game and not a specific FPS or TPS "guns akimbo" game. It may have been Core's main identifying attribute when making a TR game in long times past but, gladly for me, they haven't been in charge of the latest "Survivor trilogy of the TR franchise for at least a decade now. :TwoFinger:
Let's do some facts checking even, shall we? The Shadow of the Tomb Raider (SoTR) game even had it's support ceased a looong time ago, years way before you making this post... probably because it was initially released back in 2018. :steamfacepalm:

And if you're looking for such a "guns akimbo" FPS / TPS experience, please allow me to point you towards WarFrame (WF) for such an available and similar experience. :baa:

Yes it's you. This is meant to be Lara - part James Bond part John McClane - spreadeagled with two pistols flying through the air like a Jedi.

Who the hell is this sobbing, patronizing schoolteacher?

No the original 5 TRs by CORE never were "guns akimbo" and the survivor trilogy is Uncharted featuring a random female that happened to be named Lara Croft and have the game name splattered. It became "less Uncharted" and "a bit Tomb Raider" with Rise then became a bit more the LAU trilogy (that is a soft TR experience) with shadow but it still the soft LAU experience ... so a soft experience of what was already soft, but at least Shadow have Tomb Raider experience through a good portion of the game, Rise just a little and I dont even call that mediocre puzzle near the end of 2013 to be a TR experience while the whole 2013 game was linear run&gun or hide&shoot experience full of drama and QTEs.

Rant all you want, but with the game's support having ended a while back, quite frankly I'm not seeing none of those game developers just turning back to make your hollier than thou, "Beholder of the Universal Truth" self-entitlement of yours to come into fruition any time in soon the future. :baa:

Although you get 1/2 merit points for trying to goad me into a troll's flame baiting bonfire, tough. :steambored:

May I also suggest you to start punctuating and making your sentences shorter so that they're more understandable. And this is just a friendly suggestion to improve others understanding you and improiving their dialogue capabillities with you in the future.
For instance, you'll have to break to me what's the "LAU" acronym[www.merriam-webster.com] really means. Especially considering that I still can't read minds to figure those out on my own.

Secondly, I've never said that was terribly thrilled about the Tomb Raider 2013, and you can see a quite few of my previous posts around all those 3 games Steam's forums sections going in a very similar thinking pattern regarding the other 2 titles of this trilogy.
Although, it was a nice try for a "faulty generalization" fallacy[en.wikipedia.org], though. :winter2019tiredbulb:

Nah, rubbish. They damn well SHOULD turn back! Hell yeah they should! I'm paying them aren't I? They work for me don't they?

Well let me tell you that this just won't do. No sir it won't.

After that rather childish tanturm display and ongoing further proof that you can't even use properly the quote function of the Steam's forums, I think that we're just done here. :steamsalty:

Summing it all up (once again, I might add): Rant, throw hissy fits all you want but it simply won't happen just because you deem it fit, period and ending paragraph. :baa:
