Protagonist- Gang Member or Freelance?

[Gtaghost22]

I mean either way rockstar will find a protag i will warm up to

True^

as you can tell from my sig, i'm sure (and i hope) the Hispanic guy will be the main protagonist, but if turns out balcony guy is the protag then i'm sure R* will pull it off right, R* never disspointed me before and they wont this time

[HydraulicWaRiOr]

I just hope the protagonist (Balcony Guy) has the same kind of ambition as Tommy did. V is about "the pursuit of the almighty dollar." So it would make sense for him to have alot of ambition. It's time we play as a "boss" character again.

 

 

 

"Bold, new direction"

 

 

"New Direction"

 

 

"NEW"

 

Yeah....no.

Clever, I like how you slowly focus on the word "New."

 

Anywho, I was unaware you worked for Rockstar and knew exactly what V was going to be about. Please forgive me?

 

/sarcasm off

 

Being a "boss" character would be a nice change from IV.

[MyDog]

Either freelance or a Mafioso.

It's worth remembering that we played as Tommy Vercetti 10 years ago. Absolutely ages. No harm in doing a boss-like character 10 years later.

See, the key word here is new, and the other key word is again. I fail to see how new and again don't contradict each other. Unless this "bold new direction" is part of a circle, I'm not buying it.

It's not like saying they should be the exact same characters.

 

ex. Arnold schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone are both badasses, but both have their own style. That's what I mean.

Come on now, they look pretty much the same.

 

And it's not like the hispanic guy looks similar to CJ or Luis.

 

 

 

[GTA-King]

I'd say he looks alot like Luis to be honest.

 

But I'm not talking about looks. I'm talking about personality.

I dont hink he looks anything like Luis tbh, but i get your point

[GTA-King]

The scene where he fails miserably trying to pick that chick up in the trailer is when he looks the most like Luis.

LoL, not so much to be honest

[GTA-King]

Hmmm. We all have our opinions I suppose. I think the fact that they are both hispanic pretty much seals the deal for me though.

The Asian/Hispanic guy reminds me of Victor from Breaking Bad. I really hope he's like Victor. We need another mysterious, silent badass.

 

Claude was my favorite protagonist. There, I said it.

That would be terrible. I don't want to play as a silent, order taking douche again.

Yeah and the protagonist should get his throat slit with a box cutter at the end.

[puttbutt]

Oh! I didn't mean as a playable protagonist. I meant just as a main character

 

Obviously you'd be the one giving him orders.

 

And the one waiting wielding the boxcutter once he's run his course

Now that would be awesome.

 

I approve of this.

Silent type characters piss me the f*ck off cuz i have no idea of what there about. I want someone who says few words to show there characteristic, weather it be sarcasm, rough, wise-ass, tough-guy ect. One that just understands orders and uses few sentences here and there. A character where he does talk but doesnt get political like tommy V does. Someone who is like how you say... a person thats not exactly a boss but hes in charge of lower rate goons. Like a soldier in the mob/gang. Hes still has a boss to answer to but yet hes a boss in his own way but also in the battlefield. If someone gets my meaning.

Like an enforcer? Now that would be awesome.

 

 

[GTA-King]

Bit of a bump, but wtf else do we have to talk about?

 

I mentioned earlier in this thread about how the first San Andreas trailer focused on the gang life, and the V trailer focuses on the narrators story, along with the rich side of Los Santos... and the poor side. So while I DO think gangs will very much be a part of V... I just don't think they will be the main focus like they were in San Andreas.

[MC.]

I'd prefer the protagonist for the main game to be a freelance criminal. But for DLC, I'd like to see a gang member trying to quit a GTA version of MS-13. Could be pretty interesting. Gang member wants to leave MS-13 but the gang won't let him, so he'll have to fight his way out of it.

Mr. Blonde was too much of a psycho to be a GTA protagonist imo. We need someone with "balance."

 

P.S. I've actually met Michael Madsen in real life and got his autograph. He's a really cool guy!

Yes, but he had balance. That's the kind of character we need for GTA.

 

Mix the ambition Tommy had with the depth of Niko... and I think we would have a great protagonist!

[Brr_]

gangmember at start, but then leaves the gang and forms his own.

[AtomicPunk]

Never will a GTA protag be a dipsh^t, amatuer gang banger. Ever. I was in a gang....when I was like 9. Can't believe anyone would even think there is the slightest chance that it would ever happen.
