Re: Cloud with...

[(Anonymous)]

I love barret for so many things. I could talk all day about it but I AM WITH YOU REGARDING MARLENE ugh I hated it so much. the tifa/cloud "let's raise orphans! (+ marlene)" family gimmick left an awful taste in my mouth for several reasons but it was so disrespectful to barret's character. square's treatment of him makes me sad--he was clearly super important in the original game (cloud/aeris/barret trio) and it showed, but now square needs everything to be super serious and beautiful so angsty pretty boys get games while barret is shoved to the back burner for life. I can only imagine what would happen if an actual FF7 remake happened.

Re: Cloud with...

For sure, that's exactly what I felt in regards to Barret and Marlene. Barret was conveniently written away (when, as you said, he was one of the three original characters of the game!) in Advent Children because Square-Enix is obsessed with one certain aesthetic style (for both the male and female characters) and Barret is definitely not that. I'm pretty sure someone who hasn't played the game could watch Advent Children and totally miss that Marlene is Barret's daughter at all. Certainly they'd miss that Barret actually gave two shits about her. I really hated the weird play family dynamics with Tifa and Cloud. Well, Tifa I get, she's been watching Marlene since FFVII, but Cloud? He's equally absent as Barret in AC yet he's obviously being shoved into some kind of father role.

Oops, rant.

Anyway, I miss Squaresoft. I dread any remake of FFVII because not only would it definitely lose its charm and humor, it'd lose the cyberpunk 90's atmosphere and aesthetic. And oh god if they cut the Barret date scene, I like... idk start an angsty online petition that they'll never read.
