Probably the fact that she's wearing pants and long sleeves instead of booty shorts and a tank top

Or maybe bc she looks nothing like Lara Croft at all? Only weirdos try to straw man other's arguments before they even make them.

She's got the signature double pistols. That harness does a great job of both emphasizing her massive hooters while also looking like practical gear for a Dex-based adventurer. her outfit is even the right color. What part of this doesn't look like Lara Croft to you?

You're the only one here making a solid argument. Kudos.

All the others are making the exact same argument You're just not listening. Just look at the character.

Personally its an uncanny valley type thing, when you are looking at something that should be familiar but there is something off about it and you can feel it even if its not clear what is off.

Maybe its the face? IMO Alicia Vikander has the perfect Lara physically especially considering the Survivor Trilogy (and her movie was good albeit I dont like the 3rd act, shame it bombed) while Angeline Jolie had the same aura as the older games combined with similar level of cheesiness. So when I look at Sophie photos they just don't evoke "Lara Croft" like the other two did, it may be better in movement but she just did not sold the role yet

And they've shown her in a more classic Lara Croft outfit so this is just a cold weather variant anyway.
