World Champion Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Because he's a ni**er this guy basically said what most are affraid to say. truth is, most whites just arent COMFORTABLE with a black character and if they have an OPTION to not play as one, theyll take it.....but people who understand the importance of a guy like Franklin and what he can bring to the Gameplay that Michael and Trevor CANT will play as him. me, im looking to roll through the hood slow with my niggas and bust shots at bruthas that be slangin on my block so Franklin will definitely be the most appealing character for that role. and occasionally, ill dress Michael up as a federal agent, black suit and tie and roll through south central looking for gang bangers to shoot at. Trevor im not interested in at all but ill wait to see what hes got going with his drug ring and see if i enjoy his activities or not. So you're not interested in the white guys. You want to play as a black man, with your black mates. That's racist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutter De Blanc Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 He hasn't said anything funny yet. Gives me the impression he's going to be kind of a sour-puss. Semms like the most level-headed of the group, but he has no f*cking sense of humor. His reaction to being introduced to Trevor? "Yeah, whatever..." Sounds like a real blast to play as.

Kifflom112 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 People don't know what they want, all this love for Michael seemed to have faded to Trevor since people classify as new, which he is a male version of Catalina......Franklin gets hate because people believes he's in a grove St type gang which people know nothing about him and his background so people are quick to hop the bandwagon and say he's in a gang like robot's stuck on repeat. I completely agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raynos Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Hmm I don't think people hate him, they just know very little about him. He also seems out of place, 2 older white males and a young black guy, makes you wonder if Rockstar put him in Just because he's black. Only time will reveal more about him.

Cutter De Blanc Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I dunno, it just seems obnoxiously disrespectful, and not in a cool way. I find it interesting that this is what they've decided to showcase regarding his personality. Trevor and Michael are both cracking jokes, while Franklin is being all uptight and serious.

I find it interesting that this is what they've decided to showcase regarding his personality. Trevor and Michael are both cracking jokes, while Franklin is being all uptight and serious. I'm not really a street dude, but I'm always in areas like that to buy a sack or kick it with my homies and that's just how people are over there. Junkies are funny to laugh at, but they rob you and look/smell bad. Franklin just sized Trevor up real quick and probably got instant bad vibes. I think R* is just trying to keep that aspect authentic. Jimmy says "lets bounce" and Michael says, "we're bouncing now?" or something like that. Franklin would've just told him to "shut the f*ck up". I just don't think he'll be a funny guy, because it wouldn't really fit his character. You gotta be serious where he's from, but he's not uptight. He'll be the one going to clubs and racing dirt bikes. I just watched trailer #2 again and I think "yeah, whatever" is to the "son I always wanted" statement, which is weird to hear from the guy you work for/with.

Peregrin Brandytook Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I just dont get it. Is it because there is little info about him or something? He seems pretty alright to me. He wants to quit gang banging and make legit money unlike michael and trevor, he has a dog and he is young which means he can run faster and do high pace task like dirtbike racing (Im not saying old folks aren't active like that but it is not common.). I just don't understand why there is so much hate on him. Can someone clear this up for me? idk he seems pretty cool to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality, all three have the exact same chances of betraying each other, because we just don't know anything yet. @Sean5, that's a ridiculous generalization.
