The thing that is getting very not understood is that a criticism of having to many of something is on an editorial not on one game, because on one game it isn't being abused.

But a game is not released on a void. Criticizing a game for lack of originality is completely valid.

Even when the game is original and the fact a person is a gruff white male is just one very small part of his traits? The game isn't unoriginal, the char isn't just gruff (since white male is basically irrelevant).

That is basically the moronic way of reviewing a game for what you wanted it to be instead of what it is.
