1. Just because Jason doesn't act like an average 10 year old kid doesn't mean that there aren't 10 year old kids like Jason. I guarantee you that a simple internet search will turn up stories of 10 year olds dying by running into traffic somewhere. It's not bad writing just because you don't agree with it.
2. People acting illogically or irrationally is not bad writing. It happens everyday in real life. People being stupid or making stupid decisions is not bad writing. It happens regularly, even on this site. Believe it or not, people actually do withhold information from police officers, even when it might help them. People are weird like that.
3. See point #2. Cops acting irrationally is not bad writing. Neither is cops who are bad at their jobs. This is also surprisingly common in real life.
I'm not saying that there isn't any bad writing in the game at all, I'm just pointing out that this person isn't using the best examples. Things being ridiculous or illogical are not necessarily proof of bad writing. If anything, the realism of some of the characters and situations in this game stand out and SEEM ridiculous when compared to the idealized situations and characters presented in many videogame and movie stories.
