FFVll Fans: Was Barrett c00ning?

[Neil Tyson]

wow, doesn't even shock me.



so everyone from the slums speaks ebonics

People from Corel had some slang tho. Makes sense, people from there mostly worked construction.

Were black people even oppressed in that universe and were there racial discrimination like in ours?

Classism against those who lived under the plate.

People be like there not enough black people in video games. Then Barret come in breaking down barriers and shyt, and this the type of shyt he has to put up with.

 

[Detroit Wave]

A squad of Cloud, Barrett and Red XIII was the GOAT.

that was the only squad in that game

every other party comp was faggy

 

[Kamikaze Revy]

If Barrett's dialogue was written any different you guys would be complaining that he wasn't "black" enough. Dude is hands down one of if not the best black characters in video game history hands down.

 

[charmander]

remember he had that big ass rocket fist weapon

instead of shooting in battle he would just run up on monsters and give em that work

put some respek on his name brehs, he did this shyt for ms. marlene

...But back on topic, Barrett wasn't a c00n but he was painted as being stereotypical based on dialogue not action. He was the initial leader of avalanche, who launched a rebellion against Shin-Ra. That's not c00n tactics although I am interested in the original translation based on one of the post in this thread

This is the key distinction.
"Who was the square soft U.S.A. translation team that worked on the game?" is the real question.

Though i do remember people acting up about him being the character with a gun .........................​

 

[Red Shield]

Barret was a mainstay in my party...

Cloud, Barrett, Cid... don't know why the fukk I used Cid.. dude's last limit break was crap

 

[Draje]

People just throw out the word c00n like its nothing

 

[Northern Son]

cut that corny 'murican meme bullshyt only corny euro cacs say that shyt

not surprised the weeaboos on here caping for the japanese tho

Answering a question makes me a weeaboo gtfo ? And how am I caping for the Japanese when it was an American localization team that made him speak stereotypical Ebonics? You're out here caping for actual weeaboos (the Japanese speaking cacs who decided he should sound like a stereotype) .

 

[Wiles]

Barrett doesn't even get half the credit he deserves. This guy put EVERYTHING on the line, single handily started and lead a revolution and gave the most dangerous organization on the planet that work. He also woke up everyone around him. He wasn't just "trying to be father" a white girl. He was father to everyone around him. People didn't rally around cloud. They rallied around Barrett, who would have outbursts from time to time because no one around him cared as much as he did.

Exactly shinra
