It feels like the lesser hard choice between her or Roman. She was important to Niko like a lighouse in a see of inmoralitty, and her family breaks appart, sure, but she leaves anyway in the end, and her family breaks appart anyways. On the other Hand, Roman has been with you from the start, he is Nikos family, and supports Niko no matter what even if he complains about about it. And he is a family man now with a baby on the way. It feels even more hearthbreaking when Roman Dies and Niko promises to take care of the baby. Even in the final mission, Roman will follow you despite him having no logical reason to be there and not being of any real use.

[@Rayt5official]

[@kacperaskawski3461]

Kate wasn't very important character and not many people cared about her(I mean players), in GTA IV found her anoying and not fleshed out, also she had no inpact on plot for like 95% of time. Niko calling to her before final mission for me was kind of random, because he spent more time with Jacob, Packie even Brucie would be a better choice for this choice, they were also in contact the entire time and had an important part in plot. In my opinion they wanted to make Louise 2.0, but failed, at least Louise while not very importnt after few first missions, she came back in few last missions and the part about her feeling abandoned by Vic really hit hard, we saw much more deeper feelings between these two during story missions(let's be real did anyone was in the mood for friendship activities and dates when story became really interesting). For players who met her only two times like me due to caring much more how everything will end she kind of just appeared like nothing more than just standard girlfriend.

[@ansgar0448]

Also if Roman dies, it will rain in the last mission. If Kate dies it's sunny

Cj built an empire and is probably the most influential grove street OG. If he was killed during the prime era of grove street families, everyone will know about it. Lamar and Franklin would know about his death and how he died. But since they don’t know, it’s possible that CJ just outlived his influence until people have no idea what he’s up to now. There is still a possibility he might be dead currently, but he was definitely not killed by Toni or anytime in the late 90’s / early 2000’s

[@leventebardossy5962]

My guess is that Sweet is the one who died. The death of Big Smoke and the end of the crack empire seriously wounded the Ballas and Vagos, but didn't destroy them. Sweet must have died (probably killed), and as he was CJ's last link to the hood (the only one who couldn't let it go), the Johnsons who outgrew the hood anyway moved on, as someone would after that. Without the Johnsons, Grove Street Families probably ceased to exist, that's why their former turf is owned now by the Ballas.

[@hesoyam881]

@@leventebardossy5962 it’s plausible. The game (GTA5) does mention that most of Grove Street moved on to become wealthy and CEOs. It’s likely the remnants of GSF split up into different families and spread out. But neither Lamar nor Franklin ever mentions any OG being killed, which implies Grove Street split up naturally from time. If Sweet was killed, he most likely was killed after the disintegration of Grove Street

About the "ganster" thing from the Spanish version of LCS, it definitely means a mafia type. In Spanish, "gangster" is heavily associated with mafias (and almost exclusively used to refer to mafia guys), unlike in English where "gangster" can be either a mafia guy or a gangbanger. The word for "guy from a street gang" in Spanish would be "pandillero".

Niko utterly giving up makes sense too, depending on which choice you make in the endgame of GTA4 he loses someone of the utmost importance to his life. Making a deal with Dimitri directly results in Roman dying on his wedding day, the only family Niko has left that he could be with. Killing Dimitri results in Pegorino attempting a drive-by shooting on Niko over the blown deal, which results in Kate, the only woman Niko starts to truly love in the game, being killed. every choice he made resulted in someone he cared about being hurt or killed, and revenge always left him feeling empty and cold. he's too strong-willed to become suicidal, so that only leaves starting fresh somewhere else or fading into obscurity as viable options. it makes sense too when you listen to the GTA 5 references to him. Packie was a good friend to him, and describes during one of the GTA 5 heists how he "thinks my boy Niko is probably dead too" or something like. cutting off ties with everyone and disappearing seems like what someone like Niko would do after feeling like he's lost everything important to him and that his existence is literally a danger to the people he has left.

[@Wasp-ce7yr]

Cutting ties with Niko would also hint at Kate dying. Packie was extremely close to Niko, ironically after Derrick/Francis get killed by Niko but he was highly protective of Kate and being around Niko could’ve reminded him of her. Might explain why he severed that relationship.

Going dark usually implies they're alive but don't want to be associated with crime life anymore. Which for Niko is extremely realistic seeing as he had always had a distaste for it.

Something to remember is that games before 4 and after Vice City Stories (or GTA III chronologically) take place in their own separate timelines. When you hear things in GTA V about how Grove Street Families turned out, that is because this is a universe where CJ never existed. The game never happened. Without the protag to stand in their way, the antagonists of the games had free reign. Notice how the Ballas control fucking everything around there for the most part for example. Without CJ bring GSF back to life, they had little competition. I also saw someone mentioned "a crew down south died in a bank robbery" assuming this is referencing the bank of vice city from the Malibu Club missions, it could very well be that without Tommy, they still plan the heist but die in the shootout. Phil also may not be a part of the heist because of Victor not being a thing in universe either.

I'm convinced CJ survived and went on to become a successful businessman, particularly since he was involved with a lot of popular/powerful people by the end of San Andreas. And due to little Easter eggs like that poster of CJ in GTA IV. Can't say the same for his brother who seemed determined to stay and protect Grove Street. If the Grove Street Families were driven out by a resurgent Ballas, then Sweet probably died or gave up and moved out. Tommy Vercetti's probably alive and doing well. There's definitely not enough evidence to suggest he's dead or on the run. I think Niko Bellic is probably living somewhere quietly, probably under an assumed name like in Breaking Bad with that one specialist that helps criminals start over. Claude is probably still alive and doing well, staying under the radar, talented men like him are hard to kill. Though it's not impossible for him to have died like the unlucky Johnny Klebitz. He's probably still a drifter, maybe doing work similar to the film Baby Driver.

Isn't this also possible in RDR O? I'd consider characters appearing in the character creation screen more of an gimmick, not actual lore.

[@luckyc4t110]

@@MagiconIce Despite the fact that various GTA:O player characters can interact, the game's story treats each player character like the only one. The narrative never acknowledges the existence of other mute CEOs doing all of the things you do, and several of the missions every GTA:O player can do are missions it doesn't make sense for several people to have done. From the overarching narrative's perspective, there is only one GTA:O player character whose appearance and parentage aren't set in stone. That said, the fact that Niko Bellic is a possible father of the GTA:O protagonist implies that he is present in Los Santos, whether the GTA:O protagonist is his child or not.

Tommy doesn't answer because he refuses to answer or speak to Ken since he's the reason Ken was in San Andreas in the first place.

@@victorf6672 Franklin saying they're dead is probably a reference to smoke and ryder while both sweet and cj became bigger and richer while bringing the rest of the family along cause he did say it in a plural tense.

[@SilverJ17]

Yeah, based on the fact Toni likely killed a made man and that's why he went in hiding and other hints based on the direction Kendl was taking them, my theory is something happened to Sweet or he passed away. Afterward, without Sweet, CJ ultimately went in the direction Sweet kept chewing him out about and went straight, or as straight as CJ can be. He was Madd Dogg's manager now after all, as well as a casino owner, car place owner, and made money in a few other ways. Why stick around the hood with his brother gone? I strongly believe that while he did feel some obligation towards the families, Sweet was his primary anchor and if Sweet were to pass away or be killed, CJ would gradually drift away from his role in the families. I just he was destined to be a Busta, straight Busta.

[@malletUsergaming]

Why is it that every theory has sweet dying lol.

[@SilverJ17]

Well, at least with me, it's because I feel Sweet is what is keeping CJ anchored to the Families. CJ had at least two points in time he absolutely had no interest in going back to the Families: after he left San Andreas and later on after Sweet got out of jail. His mother's death got him back into the game the first time while Sweet convinced him to get back into the game the second. Without Sweet, I don't feel CJ's interest would remain with the Families. I still feel Kendl, the casino in Las Venturas, or one of his many other ventures would eventually help sway CJ away in the long run once Sweet was out of the picture.

[@MagiconIce]

@@spyrall2210 But on the other hand, Franklin and Lamar are clearly speculating there and didn't R* say at some point, that the 3D-Universe (GTA 3, VC, San Andreas) and the HD Universe (GTA 4 and onward) are supposed to be different universes? So the Grove Street OG's they were talking about don't necessarily are the San Andreas Characters, they just could be some random Grove Street Members, because CJ and his family may have never existed. Also let's not forget the fact that Los Santos and the surrounding area in GTA 5 look radically different than in San Andreas, there are some few landmarks that are identical and updated (e.g. Star Tower = Maze Bank Tower), but not really because they're supposed to represent San Andreas but Los Angeles, the RL counterpart both games were trying to parody. And most characters of the 3D-Universe didn't make it into the HD-Universe and it kind of is understandable, if you have less characters and their story arcs to manage, it makes storywriting a lot easier, since the danger to create inconsistencies is reduced. So if GTA 6, like some speculate, takes place in Vice City and the surrounding area, people should be prepared that Tommy Vercetti may not appear at all in that story and may not even play a role in the past of the HD version of Vice City. Or may only be hinted at. If I were a R* writer with that in mind, I'd write an ending like "There was a guy attempting to become the drug kingpin in the 80's, but some Mafia Hitmen hit him and his lieutenant betrayed him... they later found his corpse in a fountain, shit was messy and the empire fell apart, cops and FIB went hard on the empire and things went back to subtle", as an obvious reference to both Tommy and Tommy being a R*-version of Tony Montana and making a bad alternative version of the GTA: VC ending canon, further solidifiying the split between the 3D and the HD Universe. My theory: Lester obviously becomes older and basically kind of retires with his new girlfriend after the Diamond Casino Heist (since that basically is the best what could happen to him). So R*, assuming that the popular heists will make a return in GTA 6 and GTA 6 Online, needs a new heist architect to take over. Sure, they could go the length to create entirely new characters... or they take Franklin and Paige and/or Imani. Why do I come up with Franklin? What exactly happens to Trevor after the GTA V Main story is unknown except for the fact that canonically he is alive but he definitely is not a good heist planner and architect, atleast not a good one as seen in Series A. But since with his crazy lunacy he is popular, I guess he will return in some role. Michael? He basically is a made man with a legit, high paying job, his family was on a very good way coming back together and moving on and Michael showed, that he didn't really want to get back into business, he only did the Diamond Heist because this was at the time the only reliable way he knew of making money that worked really well for him and because he needed to, because otherwise probably Madrazzo would have killed him at some point. So unless R* comes up with more lore, Michael probably won't return as an active character in GTA 6 Online, unless maybe later on in some patch somehow connected to making movies and criminal connections with that, like that actor didn't show up, beat his ass or something like that. But Franklin? Franklin was basically starting his serious criminal career by the time he met Michael, he even says as much, when Michael calls him about the Diamond Heist, Franklin said, you gotta start somewhere. And Michael before that said, that Franklin might not make much money with that job, but he surely would learn something and maybe one day, now comes the part, put his own jobs aka. heists together. We haven't seen Franklin doing much in the way of organizing heists so far in GTA 5 Online, but he certainly has the experience, he himself is no hacker but he has hired one with Imani and if needed, he knows another very good one, Paige. And Franklin also stated, also seen in the video, that he just needs the dirty work, he can't stay clean. And finally, with Lester taking Franklin under his wing organizing hits on people to influence massively the stock market, which Franklin continued, he certainly has a good connection to Lester and was basically as much Lester's Student as he was the one of Michael and Trevor and with heists you can influence the stock market pretty well while also making cash.
