So square can make drastic changes to FF7 in the remake but couldn't be bothered to not make Barrett an ignorant racist caricature? (Read Threadmarks) < Gaming Forum 1 of 18 Next Threadmarks - Abdul Malik Ka'bah Member Today at 5:39 AM #1 The amount of rage this man generates inside me whenever he is on screen is insane. I haven't seen anything this hilariously racist in a AAA game since.. I don't even know when. Who the hell has angry black man and scary black man tropes in their games in 2020? Seriously. SE a global billion dollar conglomerate with all sorts of people working for them so I'm not going to buy the Japan excuse at all. Wispmetas Banned Today at 5:46 AM # 22 User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissing concerns around representation Lol whatever man. He was great, it's like you saw how he was to Cloud on the first mission and decided to ignore the rest of the game. Ghamen Banned Today at 5:46 AM #24 A User banned (3 weeks): hostility, dismissing concerns about racial stereotypes What's wrong with you? Катiyouni Banned Today at 5:50 AM # 37 User banned (2 weeks): Ignoring staff post, dismissive drive-by about concerns of stereotypes. If all you see is a scary black man...l got some news for ya. Sky Banned Today at 6:03 AM # 86 A User banned (duration pending): dismissing concerns around racism I have not heard of this angry black man trope before. With that said, you're coming off as racist to me OP for assocaiting emotions to a race. Yikes.. Call it as it is - a personality trope, don't see the point of adding colour to it. PrismStar Banned Today at 6:09 AM #104 User Banned (3 Weeks): Dismissing concerns around representation; account in junior phase Nah. He's an amazing character. plow Banned Today at 6:13 AM #119 User banned (1 month): dismissing concerns around representation, trolling Just asking: So a character like Barret, same traits, can't be potrayed as black because he is racist? So as soon as devs decide to create a char. like Barret, they have to refrain from making him black, right? tvanovie Banned Today at 6:39 AM #197 User Banned (1 Month): Dismissing concerns around representation, and Hostility In what f------ way is he a racist trope? Should all black characters in video games be some mild mannered person to not be racist? Banned Today at 6:38 AM #191 A User banned (2 weeks): Ignoring staff post, dismissive drive-by about concerns of stereotypes. Oh, come on now. FRS1987 Banned Today at 6:44 AM # 205 A User banned (2 weeks): Dismissing concerns around racism Abdul Malik Ka'bah said: O You answered your own question I think you're looking at it as he's racist because he's black and he's angry rather than he's an angry and happens to be black. Ironically he's only angry when mentioning Shinra but guarded when he first meets Cloud. Would you have felt the same if he were of a different race but kept his voice and personality the same or would you say he's "acting black"? He doesn't seem racist to me and you see that with his personality and character development and we haven't even seen his backstory yet. ehusette Banned Today at 6:58 AM # 221 A User banned (1 month): Inflammatory accusations. Dismissing concerns around racism. Abdul Malik Ka'bah said: O You answered your own question A black dude can't be a comic relief? That's the racist thing nowadays.. Ghifari77 Banned Today at 7:09 AM # 236 User Banned (Permanent): Inflammatory Accusations Nah, he being black have nothing to do with his behaviors. Stop being racist, OP Ruisu Banned Today at 7:14 AM #242 A User banned (2 weeks): Dismissing concerns surrounding representation and stereotypes over a series of posts He's a wrestler, they way he acts is based on a wrestler persona.

Who the hell has angry black man and scary black man tropes in their games in 2020? > OP is upset about an angry black man > He himself is enraged by the very sight of a fictional video game character TaleSpun Banned Today at 10:49 AM # 523 User banned (1 month): dismissing concerns surrounding representation Urgh said: O he's angry because s---'s f----- Don't do that! The thread doesn't work if you acknowledge narrative context! /s aertsljs Banned Today at 10:59 AM # 546 User banned (2 weeks): ignoring staff post, dismissive content-free drive-by The character is fine. ultima786 Banned Today at 11:16 AM # 582 User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissing concerns of racial stereotyping Barrett is wonderful in the Remake and genuinely has many powerful moments that expand who he is as a character beyond any sort of stereotype. While mods are banning people for 'dismissing representation', I also think they should consider acknowledging that the art of this game, its original spirit and characterization, also has immense value and Square handled it in an exemplary way. Evan8192 Banned Today at 11:18 AM #589 User banned (duration pending): Trolling. Previous infraction for dismissive trolling. Account in junior phase. Do people just create these types of posts to bait people into getting banned? Because whenever these posts are created, any time anybody tries to disagree with OP - even in a calm, civil manner, they just get banned. Threads are just echo chambers filled with whichever side the mods agree with.

Saturday at 9:21 PM #81 A User banned (permanent): Dismissing concerns of transphobia, account in junior phase Am I allowed to disagree? Ehrenokeys Banned GTA game's have always been about doing and saying the wrong things, this is a video game with warnings about explicit content aimed at adults, it's like watching a South Park episode, this is not a game to search for the meaning of life. And where do we draw the line? We must remove all jokes that may offend the Igbt community but what about everything else? Should they remove the ability to run over people with cars to prevent real life victims from remembering the terrible tragedy? Maybe the ability to steal cars altogether? The killing of random people with sniper rifles? What about swear words? I don't think they should remove anything at all.
