Niko was a ruthless killer. Easily the best GTA protagonist, completely unmoggable.

>>722955986 (OP)
Hey Niko, it’s me, your cousin, Roman. You want to go to strip club?

I hope Niko bellic returns in gta 6 so he gets beaten to death by Jason for looking at Lucia the wrong way

>>722955986 (OP)
I love the countless scenes where people attempt to intimidate him and it fails completely. He is a war veteran for a shithole country where war crimes are common place. That posturing big dick swinging shit does nothing for him. He can see through it every time.

>>722956202
Jason is the only one who can probably hold his own against Niko since he's a fellow veteran. None of the GTAV cast could ever.

>>722956202
Jason is just to lure in more cancerous female gamers and faggots to the series, Nicky was real.

>>722956202
Niko would snuff that faggot and refuse to even rape the brown woman.

>>722955986 (OP)
i like tommy vercetti the best :)

>>722956286
Jason could probably beat an old 2025 Niko but I dont think he would win against 2008 Niko

>that scene where that mob boss threatens Niko if he doesn't do a job for him
>Niko straightens his back and locks eyes with him
>mob boss backs down immediately
Dude was built different.

>>722956363
lol no

Claude is the only ruthless killer among GTA protags.

>>722955986 (OP)
He was damn brutal. Makes me wonder just how many massacres he's responsible for back home, willing or not.

>>722956778
So was Tommy

>Ileyna Faustin: [about Mikhail Faustin] He did not used to be like this. When we were young, at home, he was beautiful. He was happy. He made me happy. But then something changed. Years ago. I never quite knew what it was. So many years I wondered what it was, or what was wrong with me that I did not see it in him, or I changed him.
>Niko Bellic: Life is complicated. I... I never thought I'd live like this.
>Ileyna Faustin: No?
>Niko Bellic: When the war came, I did bad things, but after the war I thought nothing of doing bad things. I killed people, smuggled people, sold people.
>Ileyna Faustin: And you don't worry about your soul?
>Niko Bellic: After you walk into a village and you see 50 children, all sitting neatly in a row, against a church wall, each with their throats cut and their hands chopped off, you realize that the creature that could do this doesn't have a soul.
>Ileyna Faustin: God is very complicated. You mustn't give up hope.
>Niko Bellic: Well, I don't know about that.

As if American cuck problems would phase a man who saw actual atrocities.

>>722956697
so how many people has this zoomerfaggot killed?

>>722956778
>mute bitch that didnt even fuck the mafia hoe that his boss thought was having an affair with

>>722956778
Claude is a sociopath who literally burns every bridge he comes across. He will and did fuck over anyone who ever helped him the instant someone else offered him money to do so. He had no morals, no boundaries. At least Niko values the people in his life that don't fuck him over.

>>722956919
Many, and the slav would just be another for him

>>722955986 (OP)
Trevor, Tommy and Claude seem like the only GTA characters that would go on killing sprees for absolutely no reason. Niko had a conscious about who he killed.

>>722956919
>zoomer
Jason is in his 30s. He's a millennial

>>722957181
the oldest zoomer is 28

>>722957080
Trvke. The fact he helps Florian the moment he realizes he wasn't the traitor proves this.

>>722957217
And I clearly said he is in his 30s, you fucking retarded mongoloid

>>722957080
>Niko had a conscious about who he killed
why does Niko get credit for a trait that was taken from CJ?

the lack of CJ mentions in this thread is deafening, are you scared because he's a niggerDEITY?

>>722957380
He was less retarded. Plus, you have to remember the shit CJ did for just a crumb of pussy.

>>722957380
CJ is a gangbanger. Niko wouldn't go on a drive-by on random niggas for da hood like CJ does at the beginning of the game.

>>722957481
>crumb of pussy
he had 7 girlfriends, you must be confusing him for Tommy, his only love interest was passed around by love fist and the porn studio, he's the sexless cuck of the franchise.

The final /v/ redpill is admitting Rockstar makes amazing games despite their insane normie popularity. This place can deny it all they want but the vast majority of this board will be buying and playing GTAVI whether it's day 1 on console or when it comes to PC. This is an indisputable fact and the months of constant threads after release will be thr final proof.

>>722956145
Net neow rohman I'm beesy

Is there a way to use FusionFix without making the game have the soulless ENB blurriness?

*proceeds to reduce Liberty City's population by 12%*

>Niko gets his revenge
>still empty inside
GTAIV was dripping in tone and atmosphere, what happened to V? It doesn't ever let itself take it seriously.

>>722956778
He's just a 3D version of the GTA 1&2 characters. Can't really compare him to the ones after

>>722957571
true, but CJ is probably had the most drastic character development, early game CJ is almost a completely different character from end game CJ. Niko and the rest are all wise and know it all from the beginning whereas we saw CJ learn as the game went.

>>722955986 (OP)
Peak of the GTA series.

>>722957685
The gameplay for RDR 2 and GTA 5 was pretty mediocre, but yeah, I agree.

>>722957914
Niko is really the only GTA character who's developement is finished by the start of the game. He knows exactly who he is and where his loyalty lies. It's a unique take on the series where it's more about him adapting to American life while realizing his violence follows him everywhere, rather than growing or changing.

>>722955986 (OP)
Brown Niko is better

>>722955986 (OP)
niko is great but i like this best

>>722957889
GTA IV was made as less of a parody and GTA V was made as more of one. Now they're gonna try to make GTA 6 more serious and V tards are raging and shitting their pants calling it woke and tame.

>>722957889
V was like an arcade american action movie while IV was like a slowburn hbo series

>>722957889
I think both were just a reflection of the times they came out. I remember everyone loving V on release because it was so colorful and zany compared to IV. Once the novelty (finally) wore off, people realized it was just style over substance.

No, he was THE RAPED protagonist. He has the disconnect of a foreigner and resent. Claud is the coldest. The nigger doesn't even speak. Hardcore hitman.

>>722955986 (OP)
>YELLOW CAR!
>MMMWWWAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know his VA wasn't Serbian and all but a lot of Niko's voice lines are so hilarious in just how over-the-top they are.

>>722958317
>The RAPED
xitter meme go back

>>722958348
I wish he wasnt serbian, never liked a single serbroach IRL. I know they wanted to be heckin unique but they should have just made him russian

>>722958086
This was proto-GTA V

>>722958363
Has nothing to do with xhitter whether it proliferated there or not.

>>722958424
I've never interacted with Serbians irl so I wouldn't even notice in the first place. Would it make any difference if he was Croatian or Bosnian?

Which ending did you pick?

>>722958507
Croatians are good lads. Serbs are legitimately devils.

>>722955986 (OP)
I like how he had all these gangster types trying to intimidate him and he stayed completely unimpressed

>>722958432
Yeah, TBOGT and 5 remembered what GTA is supposed to actually be

>>722958507
honestly they should have just went with niko being croatian

>>722958565
arent their languages almost identical to each other? I remember some people thinking Niko was Croatian

>>722958667
Makes more sense as a Serb due to the sheer evil they perpetuated during the war. A Croat wouldn't have anything to seek redemption for.

>>722958628
i agree but i think there's room for both styles of the game
it kinda sucks 6 is going to be the main rockstar focus for the next decade minimum with how much went into it

>>722958667
Why? Not a single burger knows or cares about the difference

>>722956202
Okay but you genuinely can’t do that to Niko, he’s talked about killing a lot of people back in Russia, does roundhouse kicks and very clearly knows how to survive and fight, Johnny was a shitter, the only one who can compete is Trevor and that’s probably because of his retard strength and he might be shook by how far he’s willing to go, would still put my money on Niko anyway

>>722958776
GTA 6 may as well be the final GTA with how long the time between releases will be

>>722958770
kek

>>722957685
>Rockstar makes amazing games
Their games have great graphics nowdays but gameplay has been mid since GTA 4. No denying there's gonna be a ton of people buying 6 though, even if they're just coping that it's gonna be good even when it probably won't be

>>722958894
i just hope it doesn't suck ass which i have a 30% feeling it will just based on expectations in the modern era
i didn't care for V much as a story but i do still enjoy GTAO for what it is and hope it gets better with whatever 6 does with its online

>>722958936
kek Albanians are awful too. Criminals everywhere they go.

>>722958887
Trevor is a meme compared to Niko.

>>722958939
RDR wasn't "mid".

>>722958974
this game better be the best thing I ever played in my entire life lol, the expectations are high and rightfully so. I agree with GTAO though, singleplayer GTA 5 gets boring after a while which I hope isn't the case with 6.

>>722956895
It was Niko who cut off the hands and slit the throats of those children in Yugoslavia that he told Mikhail Faustin's wife about, right?

>that mission where you massacre a penthouse full of Hasidic Jews
Niko might've gone too far in a few places.

>>722959132
No you fucking retard, holy shit how are you even literate?

>>722959132
It was his fellow serbroach soldiers but he had a change of heart

>>722957708

>>722959271
>The woman asks him about his soul.
>Niko tells the story, then adds that the creature who did this couldn't have had a soul.
He's clearly referring to himself in the third person to distance himself from this evil deed.

All balks are the same people
They hate one another for traits they all hold
I wish they were capable of comprehending what their squabbles look like to outsiders. Maybe an equivalent would be india and pakistan.

>>722959245
This game was so anti-kike its probably why rockstar never re-releases it. The battle for liberty city against the jews

>>722955986 (OP)
>ruthless killer
That's Claude.

>>722956286
Isn't Trevor also an veteran?

>>722957045
Niko is far from loyal. Niko killed Mikhail Faustin and Ray Boccino despite being on good terms with them. He's more loyal to the street life than to individuals around him (besides Roman).

>>722960689
Claude is (you), the player. Doesn't make sense to compare him to Tommy or anyone after.

>>722959916
Family always fights the hardest.

>>722959245
There is no way they could make these jew jokes today

>>722961038
Lol I knew I wasn't fuckin crazy about these fuckers having more money

>>722958553
The one where Roman lives. Even if you don't like Roman as a character, keeping him has more advantages than the other option (like free taxis).

>>722956145
>accept
>immediately call him back
>cancel

>>722961038
Wow. Shame on you, Rockstar. Do better.

>>722955986 (OP)
Niko is exactly why we shouldn't let immigrants into the US.

>>722955986 (OP)
Niko was a boring, whiny bitch.

>>722955986 (OP)
I like Michael from GTA 5 the most by quite a longshot

But I think that's just because he reminds me of my dad (but much richer) and also because it is a fantasy of mine to eventually have a mid-life crisis and hate my family.

Niko is cool but I don't really like the supporting characters around him

>>722956202
>Liberty City is rumoured to be in GTA VI
>Michael Hollick (Niko's VA) has also seemingly squashed the beef with Rockstar and started doing Cameos as Niko
I honestly wouldnt be surprised if Niko actually returns in GTA VI.

>>722958082
Niko's character formally changes depending on whather you choose to kill Darko or not.
If you killed him then you're making it so that Niko remained the same coldhearted vengeful killer he had become after the war.
If you spared Darko then you're making him move pass his past and accept a new life in Liberty City.

>>722957045
Claude's motivation was revenge, not money. Everything he did, he did to get to Catalina. My headcanon is that he killed himself at the end of the game. I know people theorize he shot Maria, but think about it, he had nothing to live for anymore. I doubt he'd go back to being a two-bit criminal like he was before the story, and he had no motivation to continue working as a criminal underworld hitman

>>722959245
>>722960318
>>722961038
daily reminder that they followed this up with GTA V, a game where the new crazy goy methhead protag (trevor) killed the only jew protag (johnny) in the entire franchise for no good reason

rockstar hates em

>>722962071
Why is your dad such a failed has-been whiney cunt who is eerily capable of throwing up no-nonsense badass veneers when faced with psychopaths even if he's privately shitting himself?

>>722962464
poverty upbringing and low inhib, did lots of drugs and really misses it

Considering that Rockstar works in trilogies, (3 > VC > SA & IV > TLAD > TBOGT), is GTA 6 the end of the HD trilogy that started with GTA 4?

How will GTA 7 even look like? VR? AR? AI-gen?

>>722962592
fair

>>722962435
>methhead protag (trevor) killed the only jew protag (johnny) in the entire franchise for no good reason
it was rockstar's way of telling us that they're not going to make story dlcs ever again.

>>722962610
considering gta6 was originally named "project americas", you just know theyre going to milk the fuck out of it for the next 30 years.

i have a feeling LC is going to be in the base game like >>722962151 said, then over time they will release more and more cities in the online portion as the game goes on. Los Santos will probably return in the 2030s, followed by San Fierro and Las Venturas. then maybe even Carcer City in the 2040s.

by the time they finally get to work on gta7, gaming tech wouldve progressed to a point where VR/AI-powered gaming becomes a new staple in the industry.
so yeah, gta7 will be the start of a new trilogy like you said

>>722962907
I think you're expecting too much.
It's probably going to be Leonida only and a few map expansions for online with no additional single player content. Their next GTA game might be project americas

>>722960928
Yes.

>>722955986 (OP)
uh no. he's serbian which is almost russian.

>>722960947
Niko was tricked into doing that

>>722956145
Was trying to remember the cousin's name. I quit because I was trying to flip through the radio stations and he kept going
>NIKO! BLAH BLAH BLAH [shit that sounded like the pillbugs in A Bug's Life]

>>722963414
not really, rockstar has shown throughout the years (since 2013) that adding a secret second map to the base game is something they do to surprise their fans, and every subsequent release since 2013 has improved on this concept

in gta5 it was North Yankton, and it was a railroaded story section. fair enough, it was nothing much, but the snowy Midwest setting was a nice change of pace compared to the sunny California sandbox we play in gta5.

gta:o introduced Cayo Perico, a fully explorable second map to San Andreas that we could fuck around in at any time.

rdr2 then had Guarma. which was actually explorable, albeit limited. had cool new animals on it that only existed in that map. then post-game it featured 66% of rdr1 in the form of New Austin. zero promotional material for this btw, not even featured in pre-release screenshots. they just put 2/3s of rdr1 into the game and said "boom! have fun lads".

it's really not far fetched at all to expect a second secret map for gta6, going by the pattern rockstar has set so far for their games. sure, it might not be LC, but there will be a second secret map no doubt.

>>722963414
>I think you're expecting too much.
ROME is quite literally going to keeping adding more and more and more shit to GTAO akin to Roblox including more maps, it's Rockstar's endgame. Project Americas was cancelled years ago and was one of the reason Dan Houser left because he got sick of Take2 rejecting his work.

>>722962071
He also reminds me of my dad. I never thought I'd grow up to be the same maladjusted, unmotivated, jobless, pot-smoking, vidya-addicted brand of loser like Johnny was at 22. Having a failure for a son must be so exasperating. I hope I can one day make my father proud. Lol.

He's going to be a boring straight man personality type like Franklin was. I predict that Lucia will be the brains behind the crime spree.

>>722956895
CINEMA

>>722966539
He shows alot of personality in the latest trailer. Buying beer, working out, he has a PS5. It's the little things that make characters shine in these games.

Niko's Serbian sucks. Gta:SA is the true balkan kino game.

>>722969486
why couldn't they hire a real serb to voice him tho? i thought rockstar was all about immersion

>>722955986 (OP)
technically the GTAO protag is the top dog with the obscene amount of shit they've done but obviously GTAO sucks so i'm sure most people don't care but the devs have said GTAO is canon and the GTAO player character is a GTA franchise main character.

>>722957889

>>722955986 (OP)
and he is cute! CUTE!

>>722975579
calm down kate
you're supposed to be canonically dead

>>722957889
That's because the majority (at the time) started with San Andreas, and SA was an over the top game that was influenced by certain movies.
Gta 4 came out, and was a reboot of the sorts, and you were back to being a thug in New York akin to gta 3, influenced by different type of movies.
The retards got mad because gta 4 was not like SA
Plus there was legitimate preferences to more feature heavy set of SA, alienating people from more limited but "realistic" gta4
So everyone from that group complained that gta4 is "brown and depressing", despite 4 not being that at all, and I assume that R* overcompensated and made gat 5 into a quirky mess
Tho it paid off for them, unfortunately

>>722966213
I always chuckled how the Jew peds dropped way more money than regilar peds in IV

>>722962071

The "creature" who did it was a human. He's saying if a human can do that then humans couldn't possibly have a soul.

>>722955986 (OP)
And Tommy isn’t? So sick of zoomers sucking off this whiny depressed bitch and his garbage game. Tommy and Claude would have brutalized this weird looking slav faggot. IV is objectively where the decline for GTA began. You just have your zoomer nostalgia goggles on too tight to see that. Also see: CoD MW2.

>>722960928
Yeah but he was a pilot right?
Not exactly renown for being physically capable fighters. Unlike say GI Marine or whatever the fuck Niko was.

>>722957685
Rockstar makes pretty great games, but I can see that falling apart soon. I think RDR2 was good but more and more of the key people at Rockstar responsible for their best games are leaving, and Rockstar has become much more corporate over the years as Take 2 gets more of a hold on them. It doesn't help that the last GTA game was very clearly half-assed compared to the rest of the series.

>>722957889
IV was an experiment by passionate devs who wanted to see what they could do with 7th gen tech. V was the result of Take 2 telling Rockstar to make a new GTA game.

>>722955986 (OP)
Still the best character in every damn Rockstar game, period.
>>722979152

>>722976908
Now 80% of the fanbase are full of braindamaged tiktok zoomerniggers that doesnt want a GTA game to take itself seriously. It's sad really.

GTA 4 was the only game in the franchise that for lack of a better term: had self-respect. Every other game feels like a clown in a theme park trying to entertain children, Online especially with all the flying spacebikes, underwater cars and Spy Kids esque heist plots.

I think 6 is going to go down the same route, unfortunately. After the release RDR2, it feels like R* is officially going to differentiate their games' maturity, where they make the RDR IP aimed at adults while, while they make the GTA IP aimed more at tweenage children.

Ever since Shark Cards got released, kids with their mom's stolen credit cards are their biggest funders nowadays after all.

No one is going to say a word about how sad was the end of the lost and damned MC?

>>722962328
Rockstar did confirm that hes alive somewhere so thats wrong

Who's worse? Catalina or Michelle

Do you think the current war in Ukraine will affect vidya storytelling the same way the Balkan conflicts of the 90's did with GTA?
Please no shitflinging. I'm genuinely curious if it will have an impact on vidya.

>>722982401
She was just a glowie named Karen.
The spic was 200% an insane psychopath.

>>722957181
>Jason is in his 30s
Doesn't look that way to me. Do we have an official source?

>>722982401
Michelle was smart hot, Caterina crazy hot. Caterina shot you and almost killed you for money, Michelle betrayed you because of muh duty for the FIB (while she actually loved Niko compared to Caterina with Claude). I would say Caterina.

>>722957685

>>722981719
TLAD was rushed and it shows.

>>722981719
It's even sadder that the Lost MC became such a fucking punching bag in GTA Online. Feels like 60% of the missions there is just you fucking with them.

There's even a contact mission where you shoot up a Lost MC funeral as they are mourning a dead member, which is absolutely fucked up man. Not even the most psychopathic hood niggas would do that kind of shit to their worst enemies.

Fuck you I liked him

>>722983118
>their racism is kind of "remote"
absolutely. they don't live by racist principles but will absolutely fall back to them once you give them reason to. it's easy for them to find historical justification for said behavior, especially when certain peoples that have historically fucked them over, continue to do so at every opportunity

>but gameplay has been mid since GTA 4
Name three better games with the same open-world free for all map

>>722984634
It's Бeлић (Bellich). Certified Balkanian surname.
https://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Бeлић?useskin=vector

>>722984634
Names ending in -ic (pronounced itch) are common for Ex-Yugo people. Belic sounds more on the Croatian side hence why it seems Italian to you. Nico is probably short for Nicholas but Roman is 99% a gypsy name
t. not balkan

It is Slavic with Byzantinian/Latin origin.

They hired actual russians (or at least people who speak perfect russian) to voice a lot of other characers though

We are either going back to "generic russian bad guy" trope or russians will be just momoryholed, hence the more exotic villains like the french (lol)

>>722985860
>russians will be just momoryholed
You're a bit late to the party
Did you forget who are "bad guys" in BF6? Or CoD MW2 (2022)?
russians are "momoryholed", chinks are a taboo, sandniggers are almost a taboo now. Can't have shit in games now

Yeah, serbs (intentionally lowercase) have no soul or morals, I wonder why Academi don't hire more of them.

Was this intended to imply that he was a hypocrite/irredeemable or it’s just lack of gameplay/story synchronicity?

Claude was more like a force of nature than an actual human bean. The only one to actually survive the storm head on was the people eating property mogul Lil Donnie Love. Because he knew what he was looking at upon first meeting and decided to use that trajectory to wipe out the competition with no survivors.

>>722986414
Rockstar North formally known as DMA Designs was originally from Dundee, Scotland. T2 their current ball holders are based in Jew York.

Niko IS a shell-shcoked hypocrite. Roman tells him multiple times that his trauma doesn't justify his moments of bloodlust insanity. Darko outright says this to his face.

Serbs are closer to being Greeks or Turks (minus the language barrier obviously) than being Russian. A lot of the Southern Serbs are about as swarthy as your average Greek/Turk and they have a similar diet and general culture.

/v/ has a reflex against anything popular, Good, bad, doesn’t matter, If it’s mainstream, the shields go up, A lot of folks there live in that terminally online headspace, convinced that liking only obscure, unloved stuff makes them look sharper, cooler, different, So the same takes keep circling, GTA is a “normie game,” or worse, a “movie game”, as if a giant sandbox where you can do pretty much whatever somehow doesn’t count,
But that pose isn’t just an opinion anymore, it’s a whole costume they wear every day, To drop it would mean admitting the mask did the talking, And that kind of honesty, For some, it feels like ego death, So they double down, Meanwhile, the rest of us can just, you know, play, Cruise a neon street, catch the radio, try a dumb stunt and laugh when it fails, Popular or not, fun’s still fun, and no forum hot take can cancel that,

He did a bunch of heinous shit, both from his criminal background and his in-game actions. Probably up there in terms of the worst out of the entire series. Ironic considering the game framed him as a good-ish guy.

>>722966306
He seems like the kind of guy who just goes with the flow. Even the game's marketing line framed him as such. Lucia will be the main focus I think.

>>722964406
Them remaking Liberty City as their surprise second map could be cool desu. Though realistically, I'd reckon it'll probably be Cuba instead. LC would be too much work.

Chinatown was the best fucking game I ever got for the DS as a kid. Played the absolute FUCK out of that game. Huang wasn't a bad protag either.

I don't know, Niko never canonically kills an innocent. All his victims are in the game (or cops).
Compare that to Claude:
>brings a serial killer his victims, of whom at least his wife is innocent
>kills a reporter who was just doing his job
Tommy:
>assassinates a bunch of people, some of them innocent
or especially CJ:
>drowns a woman alongside Madd Dogg's manager
>kills two informants and a reporter for CRASH
>buries a foreman in concrete just because some of his guys catcalled Kendl
>kills a tourist for his camera

>>722957685
rockstar slop are barely games. the stories are linear as fuck. larping as a movie. all their stories are cheap and very obvious knock offs of popular movies. in free mode it's just a sandbox with no goal. it's just bunch people who didn't make it in movie making like they wanted coping by making games. nothing else. (half the so called video game industry is like this)

Claude in GTA 3 at least had a baseline motivation of revenge but he was still completely willing to just do odd jobs for anyone and fuck over everyone as long as it meant there was a chance that it would get him near Catalina again.
Claude in GTA 2 is a completely different beast though, he actually plays like 9 major gangs against each other just to fuck their bosses over and then runs off with the money he got from doing it.

for me it's Rodney
>YA BELLEND

It's interesting that you can make the GTA protag do the same thing in every single game (kill people, blow stuff up, with voicelines to "justify" it) but they are all pretty distinctive as characters.
What I'm most curious about is the GTA Online protag compared to Claude. They're basically the same character, but the GTAO protag has even less motivation than Claude (who wants revenge on Catalina and make some money on the way, the GTAO protag just wants money and shit to own).

>>723001247
you're supposed to put headphones on your online character and give him the grooving walking animation, because it turns him into an autistic mute psycho who just wants to have fun in the most dangerous + murderous way possible, all while listening to his fav music
it's the only canon way to explain why he behaves the way he does IMHO

>>722955986 (OP)
I miss him

>>722998012
Niko is professional hitman.
Claude, Tommy, and CJ are just your deranged gangsters who revel in commiting crime.

even the republican party's reports on the yugoslav war basically said Serbs were simply reacting to terrorism and were no more or less cruel than the other nations. Serbs were uniquely singled out as evil for geopolitcal reasons (their ties with Russia)

GTAIV is by far the most boring game in the series.

>>723006224
but why do I agree tho

>>723006137
Because they always end up bringing "democracy" to your country if they can benefit from it. That's what happened to Serbia.

What was up with GTAV? Every game before then they picked one protagonist and stuck with him, then at GTAV you get like 4 with different shorter storylines

>>723007157
GTA 4 had three different protagonists in seperate storylines that interacted with one another a few times.
T2 got greedy and told R* to add two other protags to GTA 5. Michael was supposed to be the only protagonist with Trevor as a supporting character and Franklin was just a literally who NPC.

>>723007013
So you're saying they have a bias in favour of the people they just ""liberated"" in order to keep them sweet and yet you want me to take it as fact and not pro-Serb propaganda? lol

Carcer city is literally not a city despite the name, it's a prison of sorts, there's no reason for cockstar to ever let you visit it unless they're making a new manhunt game (or some shitty online raid) because you wouldn't even be able to jack a car.

He's the best character and his dynamic with Franklin was criminally underdeveloped. Trevor ruins the story
