They also provided a cast of characters I quite liked too, Amanda was a good character and I liked the changes to Natla.

You obviously haven't played Angel of Darkness. That has the deepest story to it, and lots of interesting characters. TR4 also has quite a deep story.

Lara did have personality, it's just that the games didn't revolve around HER. She was just the avatar for the game and what she always said would be short, sharp and to the point. At least she was a strong character back then - now that her biography, personality and looks have been altered COMPLETELY, making her unrecognisable to me, she just isn't the same character.
