Is lack of gender/racial diversity valid criticism?

Uh......I thought that Kratos was white in God of War? Sorry i'm probably wrong i've only played #3. And The Last of Us 2? Unless you have insider info, Joel is still the main protagonist in the game. 

ND said that Ellie is the protagonist. And yeah, Kratos only looks white because of the ashes but the creator said that he was a mixture of white, black, asian and middle eastern and he does look non-white before the ashes.

Oh damn really? That's pretty sick. I know Kratos is voiced by a black dude(I know it's a new voice actor but iirc the last one was black as well). 

 

I for one am happy to hear you play as Ellie. Kind of expected 50% Ellie 50% joel though. hm........

I'm thinking something i hope is not true right now :(
