Barrett is awesome. His attitude was different from any other FF character. He may have been a stereotype in the being black sense but I think he broke the stereotype of an RPG/FF character. Also, Ungarmax=

quote Xtrordinary
Seriously though, he was the one kind of egging them all on, so to speak. It is only common that humans try to lay the blame on someone else rather than on themself. Barret happened to convince alot of the people and they therefore figured that he was the root to all the bad.

It still doesn't make much sense to me. After all, wouldn't Scarlet be to blame since she was the one who originally thought up the idea to build a Reactor and push for the plan to come true? Plus, she personally lead the attack on Corel.
Poor Barret didn't do anything to deserve such hate. He wasn't the only one who originally agreed with Scarlet's plans - If I remember correctly, only Dyne opposed the idea. Everyone else pushed Dyne to agree to it - Not only Barret.

Hmmm, perhaps everyone other than Barret and Dyne who had a say in the matter at the meeting, died during the attack. It is certainly open to interpretation, but I personally don't believe that the residents of Corel truly blame Barret for the incident. If they did, I don't think they'd find it a waste of time to fight him...

I love Barret. He looks just like Mr. T. Not in AC though.

I think Marlene's mother's name is Eleanor if I remember correctly...
Barret is a trip. I thought he was a lil unruly, but I also consider him a typical parent wanting the best for his daughter. Being a mom, I would act the same way and try to protect the planet for mine.

re: Barret Wallace - Discussion

Barrets alright. I've never really used him much as a player (more a cloud/Red/Cid/Vincent/Yuffie person).

But in terms of the storyline i think he's got the whole tough guy image because he feels he needs to be strong for the others. He's an only parent - to a young white girl? - and this makes him protective. He's the leader of AVALANCHE because he cares about the world (and hates Shinra) and when we start the game he's tying everything together (he organises everything and pays Clouds wages).

He's honest and mentally tough despite his hard background and all-in-all he doesn't complain much (so long as you don't ask him to climb stairs) a 'can do' attitude I'd say. And when it comes to Dyne he's happy and willing to forgive someone for trying to kill him and his daughter.

Good bloke I'd say, and deeper than most people give him credit for.

re: Barret Wallace - Discussion

Man, F that noise. Barret was friggin awesome!

He reminded me a lot of myself. Very egotistical and a loud mouth. He was sarcastic to everyone around him, but cared about his friends/family very much so.

As a character, I used him quite frequently. Seriously, who doesn't like a dude with a gun as a freakin arm!?
