CP3NO Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I love this game, and don't get me wrong it's definately one of the best out there, but why does almost every mission involve killing a person in debt or getting money for someone? Discuss your opinions and please don't flame me, it's my first day here so forgive me if this has been posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronmar The Only Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Maybe because US citizens have a great trouble with debt. Anyways, Niko and Roman do not have a lot of money and need to get some.

CP3NO Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 No I know how Niko needs money, but when you do missions for other people, they always want you to get rid of someone because of debt, or they want you to go get them money from someone, btw I'm talking about the majority of the missions, I know not all of them are like this, I'm on mission #60 so I'm not judging early on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illadelph0808 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 because you work for loansharks a lot, loansharking is one of the main money making activities for most criminal organizations. most murders in the criminal underworld are because of money/drugs, not jet packs or grove street.

Erados Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Simple, because all immigrants to the US are criminals. At least since about 1920 anyway. I'm an immigrant - legal and law-abiding. We don't have a lot of money, but we aren't exactly struggling to feed ourselves, either. We have perfect credit, too - if that matters. I speak 2 languages, understand 3 more, am working on being fluent in a third language, make better grades than you make/made, have better prospects for my future than your entire family has had since the aforementioned year, have visited more countries, look better, have a better girlfriend, more friends, and I'm better than you at GTA IV. I'm also not fat and I don't like fast food. I f*cking hate stereotypes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kraft7 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Umm... maybe because it wouldn't make sense killing a person not in debt? that's just bad business and would make the missions even less believable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually gangbangin(grove street) do cause murders i f*ckng know that! but GTA IV is more about organized crime than gangbanging the murders are motivated by money from rackets not about neighbourhood and colours although i bet most gang killings are more related to drug turf ie. to make money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP3NO Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 yea, too bad they didn't have mroe of it, I wanted more interactive missions like in SA you used that cement truck to put the guy in the go can in the hole and cover it with cement just an example, I loved doing interactive missions instead of just killing people, you get me?
