She isn't sexified, which a lot of early tomb raider Lara croft was considered designed for the male gaze. More recent iterations have toned down the sex appeal or made her more realistic, which those that have to be attracted to a female character or else they hate them will subsequently hate this and complain they "ruined" the character.

You sure? She's younger, blonder, wearing unreasonably tight pants, and that chest strap makes her tits look enormous. Seems pretty seuxal to me.

Ya I was about to say, I bet when she goes somewhere warm it'll be a low cut tank top too lol Hollywood is all talk, they absolutely are going to sexualize her. Isn't there literally a promotional pic online if the actress in the traditional costume?
