This was discussed at length in the
other thread, with the point being that she's been made to look more like a Hollywoodized version of an exotic dancer than an actual exotic dancer of her time. I don't believe there's any other reason for this except to appeal to (stereotypical) horny adolescent males.

Therein lies the problem. The cover is making it
look like there's an AO-rated game inside, whereas everything I've heard about the real game so far suggests exactly the opposite. I'm complaining about bad advertising, here.
...of course, I'm not happy about most depictions of women in the media, either, but as you alluded, that's a more universal complaint.
