>The author was able to cite several reviews If that's not the very definition of cherry picking...

  Not really in this instance - the claim is that the inclusion of a transvestite character brought about negative reviews specifically about the transgender character. Multiple reviews did just that and were either exclusively about the inclusion or predominantly with a mere mention of excessive bugs next to a fair amount of text regarding the aforementioned character. I will grant - it is certainly possible to infer from the headline that the majority of negative reviews are about the transgender character, which is certainly not the case, but I wouldn't find it incredulous if someone understood the headline to suggest that. But the point being made is back by reviews which do exactly what the author wrote about.

    >which is certainly not the case So then why are you defending the author cherry picking such reviews? The "point being made" is backed by a small minority. That being the case, it is clear that this article is a deflection to shift attention from the poor quality of the product.
