Not an criminals are pieces of shit, you know, even murderers can have their good qualities. Nobody is born evil, and it takes some people a lot longer to lose their souls, if they ever do. Unfortunately though, the gangsta lifestyle is not one that rewards compassion, wisdom, or forethought. People are complicated, especially people stuck in the life, with seemingly no way out. You try to minimize the collateral damage, right up until something breaks you, and you either find a way out, or you become one of the monsters. Seems like the guys with a conscience die first, though.

The thing with Rockstar nowadays, is that for some odd reason they've re-used way too many characters from previous games. Makes it feel effortless and stagnant. Johnny, Ashley, Bruce, Gay Tony, Terry & Clay, Rocco, Karen (Michelle), Packie, Willie, Poppy, Marnie, Kerry, Al Di Napoli, I can't say Lazlow since he's been in a ton of gta's but I think I've made my point.

The airport assassination mission is one of my all-time favorites. I botched it big time, and the guy started running away down the tarmac too far for me to catch, but there was a helicopter nearby, so I got in it, flew up behind him, and mulched him with the rotor blades. His ragdoll went cartwheeling into the ocean, and I flew off into the sunset to the Mission Complete jingle.

The way Rockstar treated Johnny in GTA 5 was really disappointing. Also, the way he's represented in GTA 5 seems really 'out of character' and just out of nowhere. We see in the Lost and Damned DLC that Johnny is a pretty rational and level-headed guy, as was pointed out in this video. He never shows any interest in doing hard drugs or being a degenerate (like Ashley). And by the end of the DLC it seems as Johnny has really grown and matured even more. He's much smarter, wiser, and mentally stronger. He finally tells off Ashley, for example - realizing that she's nothing but trouble and a waste of time and effort. But then in GTA 5, Johnny is suddenly a strung-out meth addict. And he's back with Ashley and seems totally devoted to her and head-over-heels in love with her - going so far as to even get himself killed over her. Seeing what Johnny is like at the end of the Lost and Damned DLC and then seeing what he's like in GTA 5, it just makes no sense at all. I really don't understand what the Rockstar writers were thinking. It makes no sense.

With the introduction of 2 main characters instead of 3, and having Red dead redemption 2 as their most recent exemple of storytelling, i'm really hoping that they take a more serious approach on the next game, because gta IV already showed us that it is possible in that crazy universe that gta is in and I love it.

While TLAD came before Sons of Anarchy, I couldn’t help but notice that some of the characters reminded me of the SOA Cast. Billy had a bit of Clay, because he was a President that, ultimately never cared about the club. Johnny had elements of Jax, as both wanted to restore their club to its former glory, and lead it in the right direction, eventually becoming President themselves. Brian was a weird one. It’s either Juice or Tig. Because Juice betrayed the club, to protect a secret of his (Which none of the members ever cared about anyway) and Tig, because he was Clay’s Right Hand. And would back him no matter what. But unlike Brian, he actually saw that, his President wasn’t ALWAYS in the right. Can’t say the rest of the TLAD cast reminds me of the SOA Cast. Maybe Ashley, because Wendy had a drug problem. At the very least, Wendy actually wanted to get clean. Ashley just wanted to be high all the time and leech off of Johnny.

I love all of gta4, in my head the DLC content seems a nod to past Rockstar Games in the series. The ballad of gay Tony is like the 3D era, fun personal violence focused on money like vice city. While the lost and damn are like the 2D era of gang focused missions that it's less parody and satire and just gritty vehicular gang violence.

A lot of people got upset that Johnny was killed off in GTA V really quick. While I totally understand why, it only made sense. At the end of TLAD, it’s pretty obvious Johnny made the foolish decision to give Ashley another chance despite essentially telling her to fuck off it was still pretty obvious he had a soft spot for her. Considering how broken up the Lost was at the end of the game, it would make sense he redeveloped a drug habit to cope with it. He found himself in a John Adams-type situation whereas he was a noble high ranking member of the gang, but was unfit to be a strong leader. We can clearly see in GTA V and GTA Online how poorly the Lost MC was doing in San Andreas. Infighting, corruption, and incompetence. In one of the missions, you can hear a few members not saddened at all of Johnny’s death and said that Billy Grey was a more powerful leader. But Johnny’s life choices and drug habits fell back on him and getting cocky with Trevor over having sex with his girlfriend that uses him wasn’t a good idea in the state he was in. Trevor was right when he told Ron about how weak he was.

I say this knowing full well I'm playing with fire, but I've got to get it off my chest. I've never been real impressed with the writing in Rockstar's games. Johnny Klebitz is just John Marston on a motorcycle, he doesn't have a a son, but Ashley is Abigail minus affection and plus a drug problem. The only way this could read more like fan fiction is if Billy had the same first initial as Dutch, like the other two, then obviously, there's the gang. Honestly I'm surprised they didn't make Abigail addicted to opoids or something when they finally did make RDR2 - because remember she also slept with the whole gang! But none of that actually bothers me, what bothers me is that there are no surprises. You don't ever think to yourself, "Hey you know, they're brothers - maybe this is just a rough patch and Johnny and Billy will get through this and get along!" Which is just an example but you see my point. And even though the writing is monumentally better in both Red Dead games this same predictability carries on into RDR2. The relationships between the Johns (or Arthur as he was later conceived) and their masters is not one that progresses. We don't see their relationship change, we are informed that it has already changed and we very slowly watch it conclude from the middle. These games are long too, they could do it more like a TV show, if they tried. If I'm not mistaken in the Sons of Anarchy the animosity between Clay and Jax sees them in pretty firm alliance a few times before they're tensions finally come to a head. And from just reading the wiki for how it does end between them, I can say: not in the personal way you'd probably expect. It evolves over time. Unlike in these games where it's like: "Hear ye, Hear ye, come one come all, see what happens when an unstoppable force meets in immovable object!" and then one of them just blows right through the other. Dutch is so "head empty: only bs" - he repeats so many times that it became a meme... "I have a plan!" All the writers EVER do is reinforce, they never reinvent, recontextualize, re-evaluate, or recalibrate. Johnny thinks Billy is a hothead who is going to get them killed, so we have to show in EVERY MISSION that Billy is a hothead who is going to get them killed. How is this "great" writing to so many people? When it comes to GTA V I credit them for trying to be somewhat original but is so all over the place that unless your'e _supposed_ to kill Trevor I don't even know what it's trying to be about. GTA IV gets similar credit, and it's more coherent, but is still very by the numbers in a lot of key ways. Their satire is really obvious too, make fun of self-interested, capitalist greed, with cynical over the top characters surrounded by stupid morons who don't know what's going on; representing a whole bunch of their player base who don't get that GTA is supposed to be a joke about the country and not a blueprint for it, and then themselves when they get even more greedy bloating tf out of online mode. They even Gamified Scarface before the Scarface game! Scarface took a lot of well earned crap for ruining the ending, and thus the point, of the original movie, hilariously Vice City, which doesn't even get crap for being a virtual carbon copy of that movie did the same thing, only because it was stolen you had to get to the end to have it ruined. It's not that all this is just bad. So my opinion here is largely subjective, (not always as evident as plagiarizing Scarface) but I feel like people only like it so much because it's not _terrible_ and it's in really fun games. Otherwise would people even care? You know most people don't even play the story mode, even before online, statistically speaking, basically, no one ever finishes them. Stop me if you've heard this one: Your hero is a somewhat vulnerable, highly judgmental, but ultimately amoral mass murderer, who'd rather lecture other people on their faults than recognize and change the err of his ways - You got it! It's every protagonist in a Rockstar game since at least San Andreas! And remember there are only three locations in the entire world and despite the existence of Florida, *Trevor* is situated in one of the other two. One of these unstated patterns is the main reason Red Dead Redemption, and Gay Tony immediately stood out to me when I played them. I thought for sure Luis was going to have to kill Tony by the end. This pattern of work for a guy, have a falling out, and then pop him is so present in Rockstar games that Lamar actually hangs a lampshade over it at the beginning of Five. In Read Dead John took all sorts of missions from people I thought were shady and almost surely going to die, only for many if not most of them to become reliable allies. The plot of the game is more impressive for other reasons, but I've rambled enough. In contrast the hype machine of public perception, as far as I can tell they make great games with okay stories, but as stories themselves they don't hold a candle to the movies that inspired them

Id like ro say rhe lost and damned were like GTA mixed with Sons of anarchy but really it was closer to rhe spin off MAYANS MC in that they suck as a club. They are very disloyal to one another and arent united hardly ever and are not well organized. They make one bad decision after another and it leads to rheir ultimate demise. Now sont get me wrong though rhat doesn't make them badly written. Its a nice change of pace to see stories end with the protagonist losing alot of the time in my opinion and im glad more stories in games wre starting to do that with rheir endings. It feels more realistic somehow. All though i would have preferred for the lost to be alot smarter with their actions and not doing ao much to self sabotage all the time. If they had a rule against drug use and kept their members sover (dont amoke your own supply) and treated one another more lile brothers lile they claim rhey are it would've been better but i suppose this was the story od rgeir downfall and the time when they did so that has long passed.

Underdeveloped characters and story, The Lost and Damned could be a great story where LOST MC slowly falls apart but the pacing is just so bad in this game. Otherwise, it is a good expansion that you can kill easily for 10 hours or so.

Before anyone criticizes GTA 5 for how Trevor kills Johnny, Terence and Clay like they were, never forget Omar Little’s aftermath in The Wire. It’s the same idea.

@@futurestoryteller Yes, but you see it all the time when folks say they did Johnny dirty. People largely forget that they’re criminals. Klebitz might have meant the world to us as players, the same way Omar did to us as viewers, but in the end Johnny and co get killed off the way anyone else would from Trevor, whereas Omar simply became another statistic. I’m not saying they’re comparable, but these are a similar genre, crime etc. Don’t see why folks got so hung up in Trevor killing all of them in his very first mission. It didn’t just do to show how “crazy Trevor is” as you see some commenters say, it happens to show just how insignificant human life is to Trevor, and he goes the extra mile by mocking Johnny’s death.
