@@gamingrobloxmoree4578I love game therapy 💺👩‍🏫

[@anteshell]

This. I've played the campaign through 4 or 5 times and I've gotten more information about the story through these videos than playing the game. While otherwise this kind of storytelling could be genius, giving small snippets and hints about character all the time, this style does not really lend itself well on this type of game. The information given is almost always insignificant to the immediate action and there's always so much to distract the focus from listening the conversations that it is almost impossible to pay attention to them. This kind of storytelling works much better in movies or cinematic interactive games like Heavy Rain or Detroit but not really in action heavy open world game where you can't even drive a car without something more important happening around you.

Exterminator approach canon CONFIRMED

[@calangoraivoso9921]

Also, at the contract DLC mission, you break into the FIB building the same way you do on the rooftoop approach of Bureau Raid. And to be fair, I think it would be very stupid for the headquarters of a security agency (which is supposed to be one of the most well secured places in the world) to let it be invaded the same way twice without them improving security at the rooftop from the first attack. Which leads me to believe that Fire Crew is the canon option.

So beginning of online is before story and after import/export update is when online surpasses story.

Lamar's surprise disappearance could be an oversight related to his actor's unavailability to record and perform. Maybe they scripted something but never recorded or subtitled it and it just slipped everyone's minds until the game was what it was.

It's strange, but how did Lester not know about Trevor, provided that Trevor had a correspondence with Brad on the phone?

[@flamingburritto]

Not exactly. Brad wrote letters to Trevor. As stated by Dave that the trainees write them. I think the emails we see exchanged between him and Trevor are more to just make it convenient for the player. Instead of actually writing a letter and posting it to the prison, here send an email.

[@laytonlewin29]

Dave was sending the emails, after beating the game option c Dave will text Trevor and say “ok, we’re clear I was the one sending them emails from Brad let’s just get past it and never contact me again”

[@El-Leon-VLLC]

I think he simply didn't care. Once he knew he wasn't in danger, he stopped keeping track of Trevor.

[@filmandfirearms]

43:04 Little logistical problem with this, Jimmy would've been in the 3rd grade in North Yankton. While it is possible that the teacher also moved to Los Santos, and then Amanda slept with him, I think a more likely explanation is that she cheated back in North Yankton, and Michael just didn't know about it, and by the time of Reuniting The Family, Michael was just too tired to get upset with her over it. It is a bit unusual for her to mention someone from 12 years ago, but it's entirely possible she felt it was the time to come clean about all of her cheating

[@calangoraivoso9921]

So she was the unfaithful one after all, bet she keep this a secret for years to get a levarage at Michael in discutions

9:45 I think Lester knew some whereabouts of Trevor which is hinted on the drive back from the paleto score setup, where he says, "he bought some glassware a year ago and I think it's for a meth lab". Maybe that's why he says "not as far as I know" when Michael asks him where they buried Trevor during the casing the jewel store.

[@btf_flotsam478]

I like to think that Lester figured out Michael was still alive by tracking Amanda, Tracey and Jimmy. He knew they were still alive, and since he split the score from the Big Score Heist to include them in Option B it's fair to assume he respects Michael's family. Also, as to which ending is canon: in GTA Online, Tao Cheng explicitly says he was nearly killed at the place where Franklin shoots his father in Option C. This does only imply it happens (what's to say he had a different near-death experience?), but it's the only evidence implying one particular ending happened rather than saying different endings _didn't_ happen.

Do we ever know what ends up happening with Michaels boat that is stolen?

47:31 Not knowing this specific Dialogue from Franklin since I have yet to play “the contract” I always thought what if GTA Online takes place in ending B. Like what if the final online DLC ends with us seeing Michael’s ACTUAL grave or something along the lines of that.

This is really good. Always wondered how the story worked but didn't want to take the time to find out.

[@Prophet_Of_Persia]

I love these types of videos pls keep them coming

25:20 I don't know, perfume business is a strong competitor. "Available only at Macy's" isn't just a slogan. It's a call to war.

[@Tiberium10332]

I've read the title as "I don't understand GTA 5's story" and was very confused how that was possible Mato. 😅

[@Deezbiskuts]

I always wondered about the perfume/ nerve toxin, thanks for clearing it up

[@moister3727]

Thank you darkviperau, this information shattered my mind

[@rafaelivo]

12:42 i think it is also possible that Lester is monitoring Union Depository, because it is his dream (i guess it is the crew dream) Sorry for my bad english

[@hectorsanchez1377]

And it’s an hour longgggg

[@MorgFlame]

Its crazy how much Matt knows abaout gta v. This whole lore video is amazing!! I never thought i'd be watching lore videos on gta v but here we are. Its a very good story fair play to rockstar for creating it and fair play to Matt for figuering out the lore and hidden details. Theres so much i didnt know which i now do. Fascinating :)
