Except that you are no longer experiencing the game as intended anymore. That's like giving Daniel from ADD a Chinese accent, and making him speak Chinese, because people are concerned there aren't enough Chinese people as main characters in games.

Plus saying that “I’m not having my daughter growing up thinking girls don’t get to be the hero.” is silly. You're going to make it end up the other way around if you do that! My opinion? Accept a game's main character as it is intended, and that's that.

Agreed.
I can see where the guy comes from, though, and it's pretty awesome that he would go to such lengths for his daughter.
And the girl is like, 3. So she isn't exactly going to care about how the game plays, it's story, or purpose. She probably just wants to run around, so why not do this? I see it as an acceptable modification in this scenario.

Now, if doing this got feminists up in a bunch and they start declaring that ALL games need to do this...well, then there's a problem.
