A tritagonist is the third most important character of the story, after the deuteragonist and protagonist. GTA V has multiple tritagonists due to having more than one protagonist. Which one is your favorite?

Yusuf Amir, baby! Wish we could have hung out with this crazy mothaf*cka

 

It's quite close between Yusuf and Jacob actually, I'd rank my top 5 as something like

1) Yusuf

2) Jacob

3) Cesar

4) Lance (used to have a much higher opinion of him but on my recent playthrough he seems a bit boring relatively, though I still like him)

5) Chop

Almost a tie between Lance and Asuka but Asuka wins because she doesn't betray you out of insecurity. Cesar is like a piece of cardboard really, he feels like a very generic helper character. Little Jacob is alright I guess. Jimmy is a unique character considering his age and family status but isn't all that interesting as a tritagonist, Wade is kinda funny, Chop is a good boy.

Damn, Franklin really is a sad man if Chop is his tritagonist.

 

Anyways, I'd go for Jacob. His character shows us how two totally different people can get along and become partners in a melting pot such as Liberty City.

Never heard that one before. How could you possibly judge which character is the third most important. There's no such thing. Only primary and secondary. Rest are guest or recurring. But I'll play along and say Lester the Molester..

This isn't related to the wiki lying or not though he wants to help you because you asked How could you possibly judge which character is the third most important.

Isn't Lester Crest supposed to be Franklin's tritagonist?

 

Lester is the Deutragonist for all The V Protagonists.

 

To answer the question, I'd say it's Little Jacob.

I don't like GTA Wiki's definition of tritagonists, mainly for GTA IV and CTW. Jacob being Niko's tertiary sidekick doesn't make sense to me. Jacob was just a good friend who tagged along with him on a few jobs. It should be Kate McReary instead, in my opinion. She and Roman were the most influential people in Niko's life throughout the game's story. She had much more of an effect on Niko than Jacob ever had. Same goes for Hsin Jaoming. Hsin was not an ally to Huang nor an influential character. CTW's second most important character is Uncle Kenny, and the third most important Wade Heston. And I'd have something to say about calling Asuka a tritagonist too.

 

But then again, it's all up to one's own personal view of the game. If Kate McReary was available in the poll's options, I'd pick her. She's the only character who ever convinces the protagonist to reconsider being a criminal. Her chemistry with Niko was perfect.

Also, I think what that guy was so bluntly trying to figure out is that the wiki is not a central authority over the game's facts and that just because they have a page where they list what they view to be tritagonists does not make it official. I agree with him although he could've said it more civilly.

Well, from every scum you encounter in Liberty City, only Jacob decided to help Niko find Pegorino / Dimitri.

That's true but the word the tritagonist implies he's the third most important character in the story overall, which isn't right since his role in the story was fairly minimal. Kate McReary makes Niko reconsider his entire life, make peace with his demons and genuinely think about leaving the criminal world behind him, something that many people in his life tried but only she succeeded at. There's a reason he asks only her and Roman for advice when Pegorino offers him that last job and he goes apesh*t over her death. (i.e. "Why couldn't you hit me instead?!") Towards the end of the game Niko was on a course of leaving crime and becoming an average Joe with a regular life, all because he met Kate. She's the tritagonist in my eyes.

In GTA Universe, it is best to don't trust anyone.

 

Except Little Jacob, you can always trust Little Jacob.

Would probably have Asuka instead of Chop in this list(though I like both), it's funny how Chop was advertised quite a bit before V was released iirc but he barely has a presence in the game after the beginning, though that's not such a bad thing thinking about it.

I wonder if hypothetically Badman's paranoia were to make him ask Jacob to take down Niko for some reason, would he do it? :blink:
