Is Ray's Ristorante, "Drusilla's", A Failure?

Actually,while killing Ray was fun, I think Pegorino forcing Niko to kill Phil would be more emotional. I mean, imagine Niko having to confront Phil, lots of emotion etc

Lol. I love these topics you start up.

- If you watch enough TV shows you see that all successful organised crime guys have a bar or a nightclub or a restaurant where they do bidness.

- It probably gets a few customers at night. During the day all the other mobsters and hoods are busy working.

- If *I* was a LC resident I wouldn't eat there because they smoke in the kitchen and turn bikers' faces into creme brule -- that'd smell terrible.

- But I really like the location of the restaurant. It'd be great if Niko had been given a safehouse there on the second floor instead of that dive over in A.City.

It sucked that not many people came to his restaurant in my DLC concept im making it so that your protag works in Drusillas and becomes the owner after Ray Boccino dies.

buzbegone what do you have against 40 years old brazilian women angry.gif ? But why Drusilla's is not a failure? I think it is, no one goes there, poor Ray cryani.gifcryani.gif AceRay I agree with you Ray deserved a more "cinematographic" death, poor Ray, even his death was awful! cryani.gif

tbh niko goes there a few times for missions - the restaurant's never fully shown so there COULD be people in there, and in the vid linked to earlier, the man says "in the back"

 

I'll agree with the guy that said because it's a mob restaurant the general public will not come in too often - it's not supposed to be a hugely popular place, it's a mob hangout....

 

Or it's a simple oversight by R*. It's not a "failure" but more a place where cutscenese are and R* probably couldn't be bothered to animate dozens of people inside just for a few cutscenes.

 

 

@buzbegone fair enough. I don't have a problem with her. I don't care if she's male or female, bazilian, american or english, or 14 or 40. Like i said, if you don't like her topics, don't post in them. I'm not gonna talk off topic about it anymore. Lets keep this on track...

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

Fair enough, ok.

I like Drusilla's it is a nice place, a traditional Italian restrauant. Whenever I go there to do a mission for Ray I always wear a suit so I can feel smart and well dressed in there.

 

It is a shame that you can't see an Italian mafia boss in there with his bodyguards having a little "chat" about "business" or a certain "friend", or for a laugh meet Brucie or Gay Tony or some other character having a meal there. tounge2.gif

AceRay I think it would be interesting if we could choose who should die, Ray Boccino or Phil Bell, or better...... Jimmy should die, I hate him devil.gif

Hi Barry Spock I'm glad you like my topics, but even thought Drusilla's is a mob restaurant, I think it wouldn't be a problem to get more costumers, because almost the whole Little Italy is run by Mobsters. And I got to the restaurant at night and still............not costumers sad.gif This is so sad, Ray is so lonely sad.gif I would eat there because Drusilla's is recommended by critics and I feel sorry for empty restaurants (I always choose a empty restaurant to eat, because I feel sorry for the owner). It'd be good to live there, do you think Ray Boccino lives in the Drusilla's building? Or do you think he lives in Westdyke?

LuisBellic This is very interesting! I want to see your DLC lol.gif

Mokrie Dela the restaurant isn't bigger than that, I think. It's always empty, it's so sad. But I don't understand it, almost the whole Little Italy is runned by the Mob, and my husband worked in a Mafia Restaurant in New York, and it was very popular, but this was in the 80's, maybe nowadays is different, I don't know. sad.gif Yes, it could be truth, but I think Rockstar should put one family or two in the restaurant, Drusilla's empty is very sad. sad.gif

buzbegone I didn't know him, but I've already seen this picture.....strange ph34r.gif

Slingaa unfortunately, it isn't cryani.gif Look at this cutscene, the maître treats Niko like he was an usual costumer CAUTION this cutscene is very sad, Ray seems to be so happy when Niko arrives, because he was so lonely cryani.gif :

 

AlexGTAGamer I dress that grey suit with a red shirt, it's very pretty, I like it.

Drusilla is a pretty good restaurant I think. Only because people arent there on cutscenes, doesnt mean Ray has no money.

mati1501 Ray have a fancy car and a fancy suit, but his business always go wrong, like Drusilla's and The Diamonds. cryani.gif

Ray was just unlucky with the diamonds. I think these diamonds were cursed orly.gif . People died, and on the end some hobo has found them

 

BTW is there proof that Ray is the boss of Drusillas? I mean he has better things to do than this.

mati1501 I think it's kind of obvious Ray is the owner, and in the website PeepThatsh*t.com they say Drusilla's is family tradicional and it exists since 1971 so the restaurant is a tradition of Ray's family, and he has the restaurant as a "legitimate business", just like Honkers which is owned by Jimmy Pegorino. Ray is a white-collar criminal, he gives missions to errand boys like Niko in your restaurant.

Speaking of Honkers, that joint ain't exactly booming with business either.

 

I agree that the business with the diamonds was just unlucky for Ray, although it was partly because he employed people who tried to rip him off ( The Lost, Luca and his crew ). He must make money from somewhere though, since both Jimmy and Phil called him a good earner.

 

I suspect business Drusilla's is fine, regardless of what the cutscenes would lead you to believe.

WF the Hobgoblin yes it's true, Ray Boccino is a good earner, but he definately don't get money from Drusilla's, no one goes there orly.gif !

Well i don't think Ray gives two mierda's about how populated drusilla's is, i mean the point is, it is keeping him and his organization look sort of legitamate, so as long as that is happening and the money rolling in from his criminal entiprise is still good, i'd say in his eyes, drusilla coudn't be better.

AceRay but in all cutscenes it's empty! sad.gif

Pac. maybe you're right, but I feel sorry for empty restaurants, it's so lonely sad.gif

AceRay not always, I just see people eating outside sometimes. But I think that in the cutscenes it should have one family or two in the restaurant, it empty is so depressive!

Why? Why is that depressing? nobody gives a sh*t about Ray. and in a cutscene, Ashley was eating there! there was also a waiter too.

So, I said only people like Phil Bell and Ashley Butler goes to Drusilla's in the cutscenes. It's depressing because I feel sorry for fiasco restaurants, and for lonely people like Ray. I care about Ray, I feel sorry for him sad.gif . Drusilla's has two known employers, a maître and a waiter.

Heh! Maybe we should try and get you off ray, he's poisnened you with his "charm".

 

Ok so, He's killed before, he steals, he's only dating ashley for his own benefit, if it was his life or yours, he would choose his without even blinking... mercie_blink.gif

Pac. unfortunately I don't think he's only dating Ashley for his own benefit, I think he really likes her, he seems to care about her in the mission "Taking Out The Trash", and I would choose my life over any other life (except for my husband and sons sigh.gif )

WF the Hobgoblin This is even sadder cry.gif !

Actually that depresses me how i would do the same, if it was my life or some other persons life, how i'd choose mine. It sadens me how we humans as individuals compete in extreme ways like that, don't know why it's perfectly normal to care about your own life more than anyone else because it's yours, but yeah very few people would be kind enough to actually put sombody else first. sad.gif
