What happened to Lara's sex appeal?

I mean, it's not like it's sexist to be sexy. Being sexy is good. Our heros are suposed to be exceptional humans and Lara's sex appeal is a cornerstone of the Tomb Raider brand. What gives here? Are they saying that it is bad to be sexy? I don't know, maybe I've gotten old and out of touch, but I just don't understand why we've gotten so conservative and oppressive about sexuality.

I dunno if she is less sexy...physically she is still good looking woman. We simply miss her confidence and that flirtarious attitude from older games. Current trilogy focuses more on Lara being stuck in a wilderness and trying to survive. Not a good environment to be flirty or look sexy while being covered in mud. I do hope, if they make more Tomb Raiders with this iteration of Lara Croft, they will make her more like her old self in future...

You can equip the classic outfits and find out how it feels. It's kinda awkward because the game's atmosphere isn't as campy anymore.

yeah i agree, now it feels like you're playing some girl who's currently in 9th grade instead of Lara. it's a damn shame how they had to throw her iconic characteristics away in favour of "realism"
