Topic is articulated with precision, situating an interdisciplinary lens on a specific game, timeframe and youth demographic.
Research question is clearly stated with a defined scope, directly aligned to the World Studies theme.
Methodology combines theoretical and empirical approaches with a coherent, replicable design.
The research question still bundles two variables (portrayal and influence), which could stress manageability.
Justification for excluding certain game artifacts (e.g., Leon’s dialogue) remains under-developed.
Details on coding criteria and thematic analysis could be expanded for full transparency.

Criteria Feedback
Sources include primary game texts, peer-reviewed media studies articles and industry data, demonstrating breadth.
Key concepts (male gaze, hyper-masculinity, identification) are defined and applied with depth.
Terminology is used accurately, and theoretical concepts are coherently integrated across analysis.
A few non-academic sites (e.g., Pinterest, Gamerant) dilute the overall expert quality of sources.
Some statistical claims (e.g., Rudder 2014) lack critique of methodology or sampling.
