But where Naughty Dog didn't make Drake care, CD did with Lara, and that makes it seem weird from the outside.[/QUOTE]
Like how Drake is a clown and Lara is compassionate? Yeah, I see what you're saying. Both are probably sexist tropes and pandered towards a market, but individually that doesn't discredit the quality of the characters. ICO and Shadow of the Colossus are both damsel in distress stories, but they don't exist to encourage sexism. There's nothing inherently offensive about a man saving a women, it could happen either way. It's offensive when the trope is really all you see, and when it's so shallow that you can easily tell that's what the creators were planning on abusing.
