It's not about individual games, it's about the larger pattern. It's not "sexist" that Uncharted alone centers men, but it's sexist that Uncharted, GTA, God of War, Assassin's Creed, Gears of War, Call of Duty, Halo, Metal Gear Solid, TLoZ, and a million other games/franchises do
That only makes sense if we accept that male is a kind of default, with female as an alternative. Which is a sexist way of looking at things. If creators "didn't care" about gender, then it would be roughly like a 50/50 coin flip. Hopefully with some nonbinary folks in there too.

There is only two genders, and if you honestly believe otherwise, we are done here.

Um. OK. Then we're done here. Bye.

Ok, say you are playing Fallout and you’re about to create your character, what gender do you choose?
