I don't exactly see how that's a bad review.
It's just a bunch of SJW crap. The game isn't that great, I don't care THAT they thought it sucked, I care WHY they said it sucked.

Also considering one of the first plot-points in the game is the main character's niece getting murdered I'm willing to believe his comment about women only existing to be victimized isn't far off.
Correct, that was most likely their aim, but words/terms mean more than one thing, and "spook" is a pretty bad racial slur. I'm just pointing out the irony that they called a game "racially tone-deaf" while using a racial derogative right in the title. If they hadn't said that, it wouldn't matter as much, but they are trying to take a moral high ground (or what they think is one) toward race and gender relations in this article.
