>A black, disabled, single father to an adopted child fighting tooth and nail against a major corporate government who are driving severe income inequality and widespread destruction of the planet. Is also a respected leader of a resistance group and is working to redeem himself of his past sins by fighting those who exploited his hometown.>Black people IRL hate himI really don't know what they want.
>>3846735They probably self-insert as Cloud or maybe Sephiroth if they are edgy.
Probably not stoic and edgy enough. Black guys always self insert as Vegeta, Piccolo or trunks. Ff7 doesnt really have characters like those, so they probably dont insert as anyone. The closest would be Vincent but he gets cucked and isnt really angry all the time. Also, as an aside, its funny that they always insert as piccolo like characters when most nerds from thst community our loud goof balls. They're pretty easy the spot out in public.
>>3846735>black, disabled, single father to an adopted child> fighting tooth and nail against a major corporate government who are driving severe income inequality and widespread destruction of the planetThis sounds more like a black man written to appeal to lefty white boys than to blacks.If Barret appeared in current year and not the late 90s, he would be called "woke."
>>3846771You think Barret and his homies ran a train on Tifa?
>>3846774Of course. Pic related.
>>3846735I have never seen any blacks say they hate Barret.>>3846771Barret did appear in the current year in the Remake and people constantly talked about how he was the most improved character from the original.>>3846778>even Yuffie banged Tifa>even the Moogle robot banged Tifa
>>3846790>i have never seen any blacksLucky.
>>3846735>Black people IRL hate himI've never known that to be the case. I've seen much more of the opposite.
>>3846791Edgy and cool.
>>3846774It's kinda funny that people still haven't picked up on Barret being a closeted homosexual.
>>3846735>>3846760>>3846810The vocal complaints about Barret was that he was "too stereotypical".
>>3846976>African-AmericanThese people are 100% white, you have to be a special kind of idiot to describe a black man as "African" or "American" in a world that does not have an Africa OR an America.
>>3846980There's a Texas at least
>>3846985AI generated slop
>>3846790>I have never seen any blacks say they hate Barret.This. I live in a black majority city, almost everyone I've met IRL into FF was black and I've never heard them say anything bad about Barret,
>>3846976Those are fakes criticisms written by that magazine, but Barret's dialogue was stupid. Fuck localizers and their fan-fiction.
>>3846735As a white person it's because he's literally Mr. T and speaks like he's in the hood.
>>3846735they don't. but why do you think black people want specifically a disabled single father character? lol
>>3847036Because they're used to having single moms so having a father is a nice change of pace.
>>3846980The term was much more common in the 90s. Yes, people were too retarded to think through the implications of being African-American in a world with no Africa and no America but it was just a PC term for Black.Incidentally, I had a conversation online with a black guy in the very early 2000s who said he really preferred just "Black American." Liked the emphasis on American part not on the black part and certainly not on the African part.>>3846976What kind of faggot is more likely to write a letter to a videogame magazine? A normal black dude who likes vidya or some grievance studies graduate from Far-Left University? And even if by chance both were to submit, which would the magazine be more likely to publish? Woke hadn't gone mainstream in 1997 but there were still budding culture warriors flexing their critical theory skills and media still liked stirring the pot.
>>3846735>>Black people IRL hate himBecause they see his design and think he looks like some Mr T ripoff or a stereotype.And most black people just want a generic badass like Shaft.
>>3846735I remember being about 8 years old playing FF7 I named Cloud Strife Nigger and I named Barret Wallace God
>>3847408lol, did you get over being a tryhard faggot?
>>3847434He'll grow out of it when he's 12.
>>3846976Yeah leftists hate it when you depict black people who act like actual black people, even when they're positive depictions. But from my limited experience, black gamers seem to like Barret.
>>3846985There's also Korean BBQ. I couldn't find Texas or Korea on the world map.
>>3847503Skill issue.
>>3847497>actual black peopleYou mean lower IQ American former slaves.
>>3847521>import dumb as bricks man-cattle>300 years later they've ruined your country and you can get killed randomly with high likelihood just by stepping outside of your homeThe slave owners should apologize to white people, not to black people.
Is anyone ITT capable of telling the truth?
