Rockbottomsville Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 No, not with this guy he has to make about 4 to 5 threads a month expressing how franklin is the least liked character?? Its not a coinsidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenrock Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 Michael and Trevor seem more interesting then Franklin, thats all im saying and thats the majority opinion on these fourms Okay, so what ?? What's your f**king point ?? These dumb posts of yours about Franklin are giving people the impression you're just a simple racist, and with this sh*t you're not helping yourself. Alright, you win, great for you. The black man of the group is the least popular among the people that visit this forum. Don't worry it won't be like CJ in San Andreas, the black man won't be having all the spotlight in Los Santos this time around. You have two WHITE protagonists out of 3. Are you happy now ?? your mad that people like mike and trevor more then franklin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acky. Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Franklin all day long, these old-ass men who are supposed to be "protagonists" need a slap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicPunk Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 ^^^Try "slapping" somebody like Trevor and see what happens. LOL Why is someone racist if they pic one protag over the other? It makes no sense. I like Trevor because he better represents me, so far(except I wipe), Michael seems like city boy yuppie and will appeal to that crowd, and Franklin is ghetto typical black dude and will appeal to that crowd, including white boys who think they're black. We have a choice, be grateful. A little somethin' for everyone. As to why Franklin's always at the bottom of the polls, I think we're witnessing a change in the youth, or that people just laugh at that kind of thing now. I'm not really sure, but every forum that I've been too, Franklin's always at the bottom of the pack. Maybe people's sick of the 'gangsa' type? Maybe it is racism? We probably won't ever know. I reserve judgment until I play. Hell, I may end up liking Franklin, as long as he isn't anything like loud-mouthed CJ, we will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Pink Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Franklin has been the least marketed Character. He's being saved for Trailer 3. So to say he's the least favourite is like saying San Andreas and Vice City are the best, GTA V is crap. And please, don't apoligise. I'm not defending Franklin. I have no bias towards any characters. I'm merely trying to rationalise why Franklin isn't as popuular My prediction is Trailer 3 and last major push of into and marketing will feature Franklin more. We will finally see some action from Ganton/South Central. We'll see gang banging, car modification and some new features. Rockstar are going to use the 3rd trailer to entice us with the action. The 3rd trailer will appeal to a more casual gamer when they see some gang banging action in the 'hood. No doubt the 3rd trailer will have some G-Funk music or some sort of Epic Hip Hop track. So this will be a new dimension of GTA V we've not yet seen. For us hardcore fans or more hardcore gamers that would have view the trailers a few times already, we've been shown mostly... Michael, Beverly Hills, nice scenery, Los Santos is nice but had it's dark sides but it's got nice things in the first trailer > then Trevor we got desety territory and country. This guy lives there and deals drugs out that way > Then 3rd trailer.... Franklin, guns, gangbanging, car modding etc. So you see, our 3 characters come from different backgrounds and they each almost represent the 3 major and obvious parts of the map. Michael (rich, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, security), Trevor (countryside/desert) and Franklin (South Central, poverty and violence) It's probably all pretty obvious for anyone to make my "my prediction" but I just thought I'd put it out there and then check back in July or when ever trailer 3 is out and see if I was close. I think Franklin is definitely being held off for marketing purposes because to show so much as Franklin would be showing South Central and Rockstar seem to be keeping that for us later and we'll see his popularity soar eventually. I also had an idea that to show Franklin at the start gangbanging, people might think we're getting San Andreas 2, which I'm sure Rockstar wanted to avoid.

Rockbottomsville Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Look, greenrock just admit your being racist and stop being a pussy about it, cause you know and i know that your not innocent.

TimeLordDoctor Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 The only reason why they like Franklin better is because he is the typical GTA protagonist, otherwise people are excited for a new protagonist such as a rich man Micheal, and a crazy poor physico Trevor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_be Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I think that a lot of people don't really care too much about Franklin because of his story. I've read the GTAV Game Informer issue many times, yet I still can't really tell you much about Franklin, because nothing stands out. The only thing I can think of is that he is currently a car thief. His story is a little boring. He is just a guy in his late 20's trying to make it big, which is something we've seen before, or at least something similar. The only difference with him is that he is trying to make it big through heists. Michael and Trevor, on the other hand, are fresh characters. Michael is an ex-bank robber, now in the witness protection program, trying to set up the rest of his life, financially, through a series of dangerous heists. And Trevor is the reckless guy who doesn't care about much of anything. He is also trying to set up the rest of his life, financially, with Michael in these heists. As individuals, it seems like Franklin is the odd man out when it comes to having an exiting story, but as a group, Franklin may be an exiting character. Hopefully that is the case, because I want to have three great protagonists to play as, not two and one that I constantly neglect because he is boring.

ScottishHeist123 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Franklin all day long, these old-ass men who are supposed to be "protagonists" need a slap Michael and Trevor and hardly "old ass" men. Michael is in his 40s and still looks athletic and healthy enough to be involved in heists. In fact, with the story and personality he has, Michael is turning out to be the best protagonist Rockstar has ever created. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall him saying anything disparaging about Franklin because of his race, or any generally racist remarks either. Greenrock is just trollin hard.

florisinfernus Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 must suck to be a franklin fan Bro, it's just a game. Nobody cares. Anyone can like whatever he wants about it and nobody has a reason to care about what anybody else likes. The 'I like this and It's better because more people like it than the thing that you like' attitude that you are having is so childish and lame.

kesta195 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Trailer 1 - Michael focused. Everyone was raving about how much they loved this new protag. Trailer 2 - Trevor focused (he was in the most interesting parts) - Everyone is looking forward to playing as this new crazy psychopath. Trailer 3 - Probably Franklin focused. We will see much more of him than we already have, and everyone here will eat their words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
