A large majority of games generically make the protaganist and the back up characters male with brown tidy hair, posess no strong and meaningful emotions, have the charisma/ intelligence of a bucket full of shite and look like they have just came straight out of a body building competition.
When they start making games with a slightly strong, slightly lanky, slightly emo, slightly intelligent, pessimistic and depressed 15 year old who still plays pokemon because he can't get a girlfriend as characters then maybe I might begin to relate to them.
