Because the less the main character is grounded in the game's world, the less character he has, the more you can immerse yourself in his role. That's why in the Elder Scrolls games you start as a nameless prisoner, and you can build your character based on your actions that you do in the game instead of getting one with a prewritten personality (that you might not be able to relate to as much)

I don't think there is an explanation for it in the game's world though. You just accept it...

Not only what said here is true, but in addition Freeman really stoped to talk after the incident like you can understand through Epistel 3.

This has nothing to do with phisical or psicological trauma, like it was theorized by people, is more a thing related with a choise like a promise. Freeman really thinks that all was his fault and he is determinated to don't talk until solve the whole situation to show people that he really understand what he did.

Don't you mean high-functioning autistic? I have that myself so Gordon having a PhD in theorectical physics and just choosing to never speak unless he really feels he needs to could be part of that; he could be the quiet type of high function. (I'm no psychiatrist so I don't know much about all the specifics of the spectrum) I'm usually the one that won't shut up but that's only with people I know.

Even as a joke that could work. However, I personally see Gordon as Ross Scott's interpretation in Freeman's Mind, so it's more likely he has ASPD instead.
