Since the game is centering the story around heists, we can assume that a few will be big banks. This got me thinking about who's money we will be stealing. Mafia? Politicians? Gangs? I expect all. Don't you think these guys will do anything to get their money back and find the people responsible? This scenario creates a lot of options for antagonists. Mafia will hire hitmen. Politicians will sway police. Gangs from the hood, as well as the biker gangs will all be gunning for your ass. By the end, sh*t's gonna get real.What kind of antagonists do you guys think we will see in V?

We'll probably get two primary antagonists like every GTA. I'm seriously thinking one maybe an FIB agent.

That was the most expected thing to happen, since Michael once gained favor of them, same as CJ with Tenpenny. But I also think about the "old friends" of Michael in the "game" as a possible one, since he gave evidence to the FIB at the start which is considered a betrayal.

 

Also, I don't really see the point of mafia boss being an antagonist here since none of them work on mafias.

i think there'll be a bunch of antagonists that eventually get get whittled down to one that all protags have a reason to see dead.

 

i like the idea of each protag having their own sh*t going on, that they occaisionally call in help from the others to sort. maybe gangs and Armenians for Franklin, bikers and cartel for Trevor and mafia / freelance hitmen for Michael.

 

FIB pulling the strings throughout, who knows?

Why does it matter who's money it is? Money is money tounge.gif

If I were going to rob a bank I would seriously consider who I'm stealing from. Just saying.

It is highly likely that Micheal used to work for a mafia family, so I wouldn't rule it out. There's reason why he wen't in the witness protection programme.

I expect the only person vs person conflict will be confined to the protagonists' greed and ambition. The whole rival antagonist thing is getting quite old now.

If it turns out that one of the protagonists is the antagonist, it will make me dislike this game a little bit.

You know the types of conflict, right?

 

Person vs Person

Person vs Nature

Person vs Society

Person vs Self

 

Every GTA's central conflict has been Person vs Person (officer Tempenny, Jimmy, etc....). But I think that R* will leave that behind in this game, and make it more about Person vs Society, since they are not engaging with a specified person(s) in this game, but instead they are battling the economy, the law, gangs, etc...

 

I just can't see them uding the "big bad boss" kind of conflict again, understand?

There are tons of criminal organizations out there where he used to work with, not just mafia families. For example, he might be working in a powerful robbery gang or even a drug syndicate.

All 3 protags will have their own story arc so I reckon at least 1 main antagonist each.

My take:

 

:: FRANKLIN

 

former gang associates/friends

former gang rivals

gang unit cops who still want to nail him for some reason

Armenian mobsters connected to his employer

 

:: MICHAEL

 

former bank robbing associates

crooked federal agents

wife

 

:: TREVOR

 

white trash crime families

outlaw biker clubs

corrupted rural lawmen

various drug dealing/gun running competitors
