Instead of painting the whole site just from one review, would you not just paint the reviewer.  Many sites do not just staff game reviewers but have them on call for articles.  I know I personally look at the reviewer first then decide from their previous work if they have the same taste as me and care when reading their reviews.  I stop associating reviews with a site but instead to the opinion of the actual reviewer.

Even with this review, I see nothing wrong with it.  As with any review, its the reviewer opinion and he does give a description on his concerns.  I as the reader can easily say to myself, "Do I care" or not.  If I do not care then I move on.

Problem is when he isn't objective and also put his opinion as fact and being wrong about the whole thing.

LOL, if anything most people always do this.  From reading the article it reads as his opinion so you can either take it or leave it.  All reviews are an opinion and what bothers one person is nothing to another.  When all is said and done, you either share the same taste and opinion of a reviewer or you do not.  I find it funny when I read comments from a review how people will single out parts and make a big case either good or bad and depending on a person  perspective at any given moment where they sit on the subject.  Its' all objective.

At this moment, the reviewer thought they should be more people of color, developer says one thing, reviewer got information that its another.  If you were thinking this is a historic piece and you saw something missing you might have a different perspective depending on where you sit on the issue.  Maybe you are black or asian and know the time period.  History is a funny thing because there are many version depending on who was in power when it was written.
