How do you find any games to play if you avoid grizzled 30-something male protags?

I'll still play them if they have other sufficiently interesting aspects, but the stereotypical protagonist is a huge negative. And there are other negatives I'll overlook if the protagonist is something more original.

Unfortunately, as you point out, if I flat out refused to play any games like that, I'd be playing almost no AAA games anymore.

I think you'll be happy to know that the protagonist is very much non-stereotype, and is her own character as opposed "generic visual novel protagonist".

The story is pretty good, and if you don't have a PSP you can find a let's play of the game on Youtube.

Part of making this secret was to let more people know about this wonderful game!

On the Western side of games, without grizzled 30-something male.
Jak and Daxter
Spongebob Squarepants
Wallace & Gromit
Portal

Meanwhile on the Japanese side, without a schoolgirl as the main character.
Fire Emblem
Professor Layton
Ace Attorney

These are just the games I've been playing most recently. I realized I subconsciously avoid all games with a stereotypical protag. I don't even know I'm doing it, I just look at the pack pictures and go "not for me".

However, I did just also buy Hatoful Boyfriend, in which you play a young female Japanese student, so obviously there are exceptions if there's pigeon boyfriends up for grabs.
