VelliHoncho Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I was reading through this forum yesterday and I noticed that a few people were referring to the three main characters from GTA V as the "protagonist" of the game. I thought this was strange because the main characters go around doing crimes in the game so why would people call them the "protagonist" and not the other way around.

VelliHoncho Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) Lol? Protagonist - main character, story is revolving around him Antagonist - his nemesis. I got the definition mixed up. I thought protagonist was the good guys and antagonist were bad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvYJcS2joj0 Edited September 9, 2013 by Mchasner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yungkrease Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I really think the antagonist will be revealed close to end of the main mission just like Gta IV. We didn't know dimitri was the antagonist till the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenEightyOne Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 It's an odd counter-definition. Protagonist means main character while Antagonist means enemy (usually of a particular thing or idea). This comes from Greek hero plays where the main character who we shared our (Pro) feelings with (Agony) was always a good guy. His inevitably doomed opponent was someone we were without (Ant) feelings for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belvgor Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 You're confused with them be referred to as the heroes which they would not be. They're anti-heroes like Robert De Niro's character in Taxi Driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belvgor Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 deniro was a hero though in taxi driver even though he wasnt originally. its more like scareface hes an anti hero but we all like him. He was a hero but still considered an anti-hero for his actions throughout the movie. He was justified though and that movie rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dope_0110 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I really think the antagonist will be revealed close to end of the main mission just like Gta IV. We didn't know dimitri was the antagonist till the end Really? I saw that the moment he betrayed Niko which is pretty early in the game. Though I did think Bulgarin would be the second one with both being dealt with in the last mission, but I was wrong and a little disappointed on that one.
