3 years later...who is your favorite GTA V protagonist

[Arnold Stallone]

Michael De Santa.

 

He's the most stylish of the three.

His character is supposed to reflect the style of play that I have always had in GTA games basically feeling like you are a star of your own "Vinewood" movie.

I liked his voice actors performance which sounded like a more typical eastern American accent which made him unique in a game set on the west coast.

I also liked that his name is likely a play on Michael Mann (Heat) and Brian De Palma (Scarface) which worked because he was a huge movie buff.

 

That about sums it up.

Still franklin

I have strange, unusual feels for the Michael for what has he done when he caught his wife with another man on the bed. He didn't leave her and he just blamed that tennis coach... Then ironically, he entered into the crime world because of tennis coach again. That's why Michael is a miserable character to me (he also has been insulted in front of his home).

 

Trevor is just a maniac, simple person who thinks he can do whatever he wants. I shouldn't even waste my time for him. Franklin is nobody, he thinks he has no other choice than involving in crime activities. If he had past just like the Niko then yes it might be a reason for him to do that but he doesn't have that. Actually, we don't even know who Franklin is.

 

This is not just for the Franklin, but for the others.. I never felt I'm controlling a main character in the Gta V. Probably it is because there are 3 characters (which is very bad situation for me) so that we can't concentrate on the characters. I don't think they even have solid backgrounds.

 

Any of those protagonists (!) in Gta V, don't make sense to me.

 

I vote null.

Townley.

Trevor. When the game came out, he scared and disgusted me a bit, but nowadays I like to play more with this batsh*t crazy guy.

[SinisterRaccoon]

Franklin, he's got the best car, the best friend and the best dog. 

[Jack Lupino]

Franklin because he has more customisation options and Chop.

Whenever I choose to do freeroam I play as him.

Michael De Santa, followed closely by Trevor and Franklin is my least favorite. Michael is with out a doubt the most compelling and well-written character of the three. He's an incredibly Complex and In-depth character as well. Ned Luke did a fantastic job potraying this phenomenal character as well as Steve Ogg and Shawn Fonteno. Micheal, Trevor, and Tommy are my favorite GTA Protagonists, Michael De Santa and John Marston are my favorite Rockstar Protagonists. When it comes to Overall Video Game Characters Michael De Santa and Connor from DBH are my favorite Video Game Protagonists.

Johnny klebitz, Is it strange i can't think of a favorite one in this game? 

[LittleJesus]

I can't really tell. I love Trevor he's hilarious but I enjoy Michael's story arc the most, curiosly enough I free roam more with Franklin.

[El Penguin Bobo]

Micheal. Guy is sometimes a badass IMO. Seems like the kind of guy that takes no sh*t, and he is. 

 

He also has the most development and character out of the three. I like Trevor, but he's sometimes childish in cutscenes IMO. And Franklin is alright too.

[Rajaraja]

Mikey. The only decent character in the game tbh and that's saying a lot.

[Duhillestpunk]

My online character. Michael is a doormat. Franklin is a wannabe. And Trevor is just nuts.

[Sentinel Driver]

Michael is an insecure, lying turd like for example

 

- In derailed Ron says that Michael is a washed-up high school jock trying to relive the glory days again. It's true and Michael even admits this to Friedlander but when Ron says it Michael immediately threatens him with violence

- In fresh meat Michael tells Franklin that "Trevor was about to kill me" uhh he never even fired a shot. He just threw the gun at Michael and Michael f*cking responded with gunfire that could have killed Trevor

 

Trevor is good when he is pointing out Michael's hypocrisy but too bad he was ruined with meme "I dress up in women's clothes that's funny and IM A CANNIBAL BECAUSE IM SO CRAAZY"

 

Franklin is boring and usually his role in the story feels forced

Still gotta love Trevor for the plain insanity.
