You have this autistic hangup more for character's relevance to Cloud's story than understanding how the world/story effects the characters who live in it.
That already signals to me your liner way of thinking like the brainlet you are and why you enjoy cliche games like Lunar. You're just an contrarian upset you didn't get a straightforward, DQ-tier tale about "Good vs. Evil" to save the world from an evil wizard and dog on 7 for it's more complex story telling for being "bad" because you couldn't piece it's together and because a lot of people liking it.

It's also amazing you think someone like Barret serves no purpose in the story when he's one of the main characters who helps pull Cloud back together after what happened at the Temple. You wax on about your self-proclaimed understanding of narrative complexity for watching shit like The Wire of all things, when I guarantee something like The Congress or even Le Passé (2013) would fly right over your fucking head even after a second watch. Thinking of it now, you're the type who prefers Outlaw Star over Cowboy Bebop because the former's episodic nature's easier to understand.
