So, why isn't this a thing yet?

[Fortified]

You and everyone else who thinks this way really hate games where you play as a child like Pokemon, Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch, Persona 3, Breath of Fire 3 and all those other RPGs where kids or early teens are the lead.

In those games, you're playing a character with an established appearance. Here, you're playing a character with a fill-in-the-black appearance. There's a big difference.
