Hi everyone this is the lore video I was going to upload on the weekend. It got demonetized by UA-cam as not being ad friendly but I wont he appeal. The video is now up. I hope everyone enjoys it. If you do please drop a like it helps me to make more content like this.
What’s the best Mc business
Hey professional not sure if you have heard or this game but you should play The Warriors it’s a beat em up game developed by Rockstar and was released back in 2005 i Grew up playing this game and it became one my favorite I think you’ll like it also it’s based on the 1979 Film and is on the PlayStation store as a ps2 classic I had It on Xbox but unfortunately it’s not on the Xbox one since that’s what I’m on but I mean since your a PlayStation player you should give it a try I recommend it
Hey professional want me to sue UA-cam on your behalf for robbery
George.
Hey can you also make a video on Toni Cipriani's life and his personality. I never got to know much about about his personality except that he is very loyal to Salvatore and his crime family.
And do you know what is 'We Tip'? I never heard of it. I think that some kind of police wing for tips.
And how did you know that some cops in the bank robbery mission are corrupt, i actually didn't understood that.
It's kind of chilling how after you bury the foreman, you don't even get money or respect.
Just "Mission Passed"
Never understood the real reason for that, it was just basically senseless violence for the sake of violence. No nuance whatsoever.
That mission was hell like
Thats why the game was for 18 years and older same like in the movies senseless killing
Daddy ain't coming home tonight, mission passed!
@@JimmyMcGillsg yeah but some killing should be within reason.
In my opinion, murdering the construction workers is the most evil thing. The whole mission is so random and pointless. CJ goes on a rampage killing innocent workers to defend his sister's honor and ends up burying a man alive. It's so horrific the more you think about it.
Yeah, I mean the construction workers were in the wrong for what they did but this was a case of the punishment not fitting the crime. I could understand if they actually sexually assaulted or raped his sister but catcalling someone hardly deserves to be killed over, much less being buried alive.
And you should let the workers kill you?
And it's not even justified in any way because his sister WAS dressed like a hooker
This is definitely the most evil thing he did.
@@davisbowe8668 Kendl is like: I don't let any men to say bad things about me and that's why I will send my brother so he could kill them, she uses men for her dirty problems, pretty weak if you ask me.
CJ: Too afraid to kill 2 police officer who blackmail him
Also CJ: Break into military base and steal Jetpack for some high ass hippie 😂
Sweet was at the prison, he would have died if cj killed both of the cops, but breaking into military base is sooo badass lol 😂
@@-Astolfo_Lover-but he could have done it before sweet was captured though
The thing is that CJ was a straight busta when you start the game.
He was nothing more than a tool for Sweet, Smoke and Tenpenny.
He didn't have the courage or spine to stand up for himself or retaliate until the final Mike Toreno mission in which he finally put Toreno at gun point.
I consider Toreno to be CJ's biggest influence and greatest mentor in finally setting him free from his fears and insecurities. Also having true and loyal friends like Cesar and Wu Zi helped as well.
@@GeorgeGabrielTemplarKnight a tool for sweet? Sweet? Sweet doesn't use people as tools
@@GeorgeGabrielTemplarKnightfacts Ryder never lied. Straight buster!
Personally, I think CJ continued to help Tenpenny because he could still go after Caesar & Kendl. Not to mention he had no real guarantee Toreno would keep his end of the bargain.
But Tenpenny is dead
@@fayyadabdullah5232 he means during the story....
@@TBSEminem ohhhhhh
I don't think CJ or anyone playing for the first time believed Toreno would honor his end of the deal. He had no reason to. He had enough power to wipe both CJ, his family and C.R.A.S.H. out. Sure, he needed a handyman to do the dirtywork, but he still had extreme amounts of government power. If toreno just disappeared, nobody could do shit about it.
The fact that Toreno kept his word when he didn't have to tells two things for me. First is that he is the man of his word. And the second is that he truly valued CJ and was hoping for continued work relationship (hence why he did not get C.R.A.S.H. off CJs back, despite clearly stating he could, because that promise could have been a valuable trade offer in the future)
Plus, regarding the framing, it's not guaranteed Toreno would do a thing about it.
Imagine how screwed CJ would be if he admitted to dealing with everybody CRASH ordered him to deal with to wipe evidence. Also CJ admitting to Madd Dogg that he was behind stealing the rhyme book, wasting the manager, and pushing him into self-destructive behavior.
Totally screwed there
well i think this is why story experience is always better than multiplayer R* should fully focus on SP
Oh, it would've been over for him... Like, totally. Everyone, including his own friends and family would've resented him.
I’m surprised that OG Loc didn’t say that CJ helped him steal madd doggs rhymes
@@bettercallsaul1777 i always expected that too and then CJ realizes that he only ever acts in personal interest but alas it didn’t happen
To be fair in CJ defense Catalina is crazy and unpredictable. Torino is a government Agent so CJ probably didn't know he was telling the truth of he was lying.(imo)
Yeah anyone would be worried if he betrayed you since he was agent I'm with you on this one
I can justify it because he respects Cesar, and she is his cousin
He couldve saved her because he felt grateful since Cesar saved his sister too
@@deathsinger115 Agree , CJ doesn't killed Catalina because she was his best friend (Cesar) cousin and he wanted money , If she wasn't Cesar cousin I think CJ would probably killed her.
I'm pretty sure Cj didn't really rely on Toreno After STOWAWAY. After this mission, Toreno just vanishes, and Cj kinda makes him pay by stealing the black project and the green goo. After that, you don't hear about Toreno until the final LS arc. First Time i played, i actually tought that Toreno had either been "disposed of" by his superiors for giving a criminal the opportunity to steal all that top secret stuff, or that he was aware of that and was planning to Come back at any moment to kill Cj, and that we'd have to defeat him once and for all. It would've been better imo, because the way cj just lets Toreno go After ALL the stuff he did (when in comparison he didn't hesitate to kill construction workers who had not even done half the things Toreno did to him) was really underwhelming
Toreno*
Im busy at university and cannot watch this right now, just came here to say you make the best lore videos ever, I always watch them from start to finish and never miss a single word!
Good luck with university bro hope you pass
Bruh I was work I was like yeah I'm wait till I get home
Good luck!!
Same here dude! His GTA lore videos and playthroughs are the best and most interactive!
same
You know the funny thing Cj is actually one of the more saner/ calmer gta protagonist. I hate to imagine what characters like Trevor, Tony, Niko, Mike and Claude would do to some of these guys if they had to do those missions hell I can see Trevor liking Catalina. Actually now that I think about it I’m pretty sure the most sane Gta protagonist is Franklin with Hung Lee from chinatown wars being a close second for me
No I disagree I think Vic Vance is the most sane . Franklin isn’t evil but he’s not as moral as Vic.
Is vic really moral though?
His actions and his words kinda contradict….
@@theprofessional155 facts
Claude only kills bad people
@@theprofessional155 Carl Johnson is a nice person but did some bad things you can see that he does has morals but the poor foreman that got buried in cement alive didn't do anything
Burying the construction worker alive was so cold and shocking . So heartless🥶
Well I’m pretty sure the foreman made it out.
@Jezzef09I saw it in a dream
@@Endgame707 i believe you
But is also hilarious. Especially because of monologs))
What about the preacher in jizzy that was beyond evil
The construction mission has got to be one of the pettiest missions i've ever seen in a video game
Fr they were only some workers doing their completly legal job, trying to earn some money to sustain their families...
@@uau3 this can be said for every cop/ soldier you have to kill in a mission
@@Needformadness2 lmao brother i forgot i ever posted this comment and when i saw your response i thought it was from a stupid political debate or something lmao.
And yea it can be said for every cop or Soldier but the thing is that they are important people that need to die in order for our character to succed, but there was no need to kill Joe that works on a construction site.
@@Needformadness2
No. I feel sorry about the workers. Fuck pigs.
@@Guto_Loco_Gushek_Brasil Cool story
Still feel the foreman kill was the most evil. Man suffocated to death in a portapotty covered in sht, THAT'S HORRIFC! He stayed there for days with no hope of escape all cause a dude said the same thing to Kendl as Sweet THAT CJ AGREED WITH! Crazy!
It's almost as dark as Toni's kills. Everyone was talking about Trevor's torture scene but I was still thinking of what Toni did for Donald Love and to Giovanni 💀
Or when Toni killed Casa, cut him up, and sold his remains to his Deli
Trevor's torture was very mild compared to what CJ did (burying someone alive in concrete) and many things Claude did. Trevor at least did not kill the person he tortured and even let him escape from the investigating agencies.
And more importantly, that foreman probably didn't even do anything, he was probably inside taking a shit while Kendl was getting called a hooker. Dude was completely innocent but still got one of the most horrific deaths in the entire series.
I wouldn't even say Trevor is the most evil in the series, he's just the most "expressive", Toni and Claude are far more evil than him. I know it's implied that Trevor is a cannibal who eats people, but we never learn anything about his meal victims, they could very well be shitheads who went after Trevor first like so many did during the series. Trevor even lets the dude he tortures for the FIB go away free instead of killing him.
@@Kaledrone he is aggresive and kind lol
@@beachesandhose2374 He meant Casa when he said Giovanni.
2:35 Not Cocaine, it's marijuana from Truth's farm.
Also the amount of marijuana goes from 3 tons at the farm, to 2 tons when the trunk is opened, to "over a ton" in the WCTR News report. Everyone skims a bit off the top🤣.
Nice! I never noticed that after all these years playing this game.
right Coca leaves are not grown in Northern California like that I give him a pass cause hes from Poland right?
Thank god someone else called that. The professional more like Professional Buster ain’t even know the game.
@@SavageBunnyGetMoney Well if you listen to the cops dialogue he says “must be two tons of Mary” professional Buster
@@user-Ghost404 yeah I give it hes not really hip to weed doesnt really seem like one to blaze it so I give him a Pass Poland not like America where in certain states you get a slap on the wrist maybe a Fine or something or like Canada where you can smoke in front of Police but even then we was taught about Drugs in High School so you think he pay attention idk as a Stoner I just found that interesting to say the least ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I've said it again, but killing the foreman feels a lot like the devs looked at each other and said, "Hey, CJ is passing for an actual good guy, what can we do to change that?" and made this mission.
This mission makes zero sense. I can understand wanting to send a message, but sending a message is not killing the one who's supposed to get it.
Edit: Also, ruining Madd Dogg's life was an evil thing to do, but I'm fairly certain CJ didn't think things would escalate to that point. He may not be vocal about it, but he did become his manager not out of interest (like OG Loc for Big Smoke) but because he genuinely feels sorry and wants to do right to an innocent.
Honestly, with killing the foreman I felt like the developers were like "let's just throw something in here" at that point of the game as a diversion mission from the actual story and just give C.J. a mission to stand up for his sister. I'm with ya, there was no reason to even do the mission. If you are gonna send a message give him some cement shoes, dye his hair, or make his workers run off.
I agree with that "edit" part
CJ is a good guy to his family and friends but he will be a pure sociopathic demon to his victims and enemies goons 😈😎
It would be much better if the foreman had actually harassed Kendl sexually. That would make CJ's actions much more justified and proportionate.
I mean throughout the story it becomes clear CJ cares a lot about his sister and would go to great lengths to defend her, but that mission definitely came out of left field. He could've just destroyed a truck or something to send a message and it would give the same result.
The remarkable thing about CJ’s writing is that even through all the horrible things he does, he still is likeable
Yeah he's not an emotionless mute killer like Claude.
He's like Darth Vader , Has done many evil things but also a deep character.
yeah same thing with niko he did bad things but he did a lot of other good things to
@@loganwolv3393 have you ever heard the strong silent type, clearly not.
He didn’t really do much bad
What we need to know about CJ is that unlike Smoke, Ryder or OG Loc, he isn’t selfish. He actually has a passion for his friends and family, and actually wants to prove himself to Smoke, Ryder, Sweet, and OG Loc because in a way, he still feels guilty for causing Brian’s death, getting kicked out of Grove Street by Sweet, and for not being at his mom’s funeral. CJ also felt the need to protect himself and his family by doing everything that Tenpenny blackmailed him to do, out of fear for being framed for Pendelbury’s murder and/or possibly out of fear that Tenpenny might try to kill Sweet by ordering a hit again (like in The Introduction) or maybe on Kendl too.
It’s all of those traits that I mentioned before that nearly led to his downfall during The Green Sabre. After all of the evil things that Smoke, Ryder and OG Loc had him do to help them, they betrayed CJ, while they let Sweet get thrown in jail. Not only that, but CRASH continued to blackmail him into doing what they wanted while threatening him and Sweet at the same time.
It’s when CJ starts working for Truth, Woozie, and Toreno that he realizes he has people he can work with that want to help him, that don’t betray him, and that won’t blackmail him. Sure, Toreno puts CJ into uncomfortable situations, but he never betrays him. And CJ is the type of person that would give his life for his friends and family because that’s the type of character he is. Sure he may have done some evil things like burying the foreman in concrete, but he still was probably upset about what happened in Los Santos (before he was able to let go of his anger before the mission Yay Ka-Boom Boom, when Cesar talked him down).
It was the guilt he felt after his friends betrayed him that he started to want to make things right starting with Madd Dogg (after he ruined his career), and by making everyone who blackmailed him, betrayed him, killed his mother and were responsible for throwing his brother in jail, pay. First it was Ryder and the Loco Syndicate, then Pulaski, then Smoke and then Tenpenny (after he “ordered” him to kill all of those witnesses, triggering the riots). Even though he caused those problems, despite his guilt, CJ still stood on top. Why? Because he respected the people that didn’t betray him (Cesar, Woozie, Truth, Toreno, etc.) despite what the bad guys put him through. Rockstar developed his character in a way no one could have ever done. Amazing.
First
Ok we get it. No long explanation needed
@@blackfox658 dont be a lemon
@@kensley94 i will be a lemon sorry.
@@blackfox658 you
That foreman killing was so ridiculously out of character
@Mr.SupaSnitch , Besides, CJ says it himself when going toe-to-toe with random people ''I'm a psychopath'' despite being sociopathic.
@Mr.SupaSnitch , Yet still has some doubts about attacking some Ballas mourning on their fallen but still went on with it anyway because he didn't wanna be a buster.
CJ incasing the Forman in cement is way more evil considering how slow that kind of death is and it was all because of cat calling.
Most feminists in todays world would probably do something much worse.
Covered in shit in a dark chamber with no exit which is dark as fuck, thats without a doubt the worst thing i can imagine someone going through
Not to mention how Kendall dresses while walking around a construction site. I get that sounds kind of victim blamey but she literally dresses like many of the prostitutes in game then gets really pissed at cat calling.
@@kxrnos_ All of that because one of ur workers called a thot a thot 💀💀
@@kxrnos_ do we even know if the foreman did the cat calling?
When you talk about Toreno protecting Sweet, and CJ from Crash, you seem to be forgetting that CJ has a still living sister that Crash knows the location of. Toreno only cares about CJ as long as he’s useful, and makes it clear he doesn’t really care outside of that. CJ had perfectly good reasons to think even if they couldn’t get to Sweet, they’d just go for Kendl.
And you seem to forget who's still there to protect Kendl. So, your argument is already invalid.
@@RevengeOfTheNetherrealm Who, Caesar? Caesar is tough but I doubt he can take on all the cops while still protecting Kendl. He could barely get his ass out LS without his homies when his own gang turned on him.
@@phantom_xrd wouldn't stop him from trying, now would it???
@@RevengeOfTheNetherrealm Yeah "trying" lol. Good thing CJ is not dumb as you and isn't going to give Caesar participation trophies for just "trying".
@@Kaledrone and, it's a good thing your opinion means little to jackshit.
I thought about being trapped in that portable toilet in the ground a lot as a kid....
Lol
I thought about hot boxxxing it all the Damn 😂😂🤣 Time
Small detail, it's not cocaine planted in the D.A.'s car, but it's marijuana. The arresting cop does say it's 'two tons of Mary'. But it's rather telling most of CJ's worst actions were him being coerced into doing it save for killing the construction workers. I remember an 'LP archive' done by Jerusalem of GTA SA that give an explanation for why CJ helps Tenpenny after meeting Toreno: wanting to plan out revenge and get a chance to kill him and Pulsaki. Also the LP Archive hints Scropio's girlfriend lives.
Illegal in San Andreas back then in 1992. Now it’s okay to smoke medicinally and recreationally.
That LP Jerusalem did is an instant classic. I want to do something like that in the future but with Saints Row 2.
@@elperrodelautumo7511 I know, but I wanted to just clear that error that it was pot in the trunk.
@@MrWaifuTaker Shoot me a link when you do. ^^; The LP Jerusalem really made CJ more of an anti-villain.
@@MrWaifuTaker Can I get the link to the LP please. I can't find it anywhere and it sounds super interesting to hear these facts
Fun Fact: if you start the liquor store first instead the other one. CJ will have a alternative dialogue saying "OK, Let's just take it" instead "you mean like the last time?"
34:10 the delivery of "and those are my hoes" never fails to make me bust out laughing its so passionate
Evil or not, CJ changing his mind when he finds out the guy is a DA is damned hilarious.
Catalina & Trevor would DEFINITELY be a perfect blind date combo then just watch from a safe distance XD
CJ is Mexican 🇲🇽
@@Endgame707 No
I think the reason why CJ continues to work for Tenpenny after Toreno tells him Sweet has all the protection he needs at that point is because going against him would have still been a risky move that could have backfired badly - after all Smoke and Ryder were still alive at that point if I remember correctly (Smoke definitely, Ryder, not 100% sure), and who knows what they could have come up with if he fought back so early into the storyline.
CJ probably wanted to wait until the time was right to make a move and deal max damage. As for ruining Mad Dogg's life for OG Loc, I think this can be attributed to CJ's naivety for the most part. CJ was too quick to trust, and eventually many people close to him end up just betraying him instead, taking advantage of the fact that he was always too eager to prove himself to everyone no matter what. I'd say the way things turned out there in the end was quite predictable, and did his best to make amends, despite, yes, ultimately still profiting off of it by appointing himself as Mad's manager and never telling him the truth.
As for Catalina, that woman was just plain demented. I doubt the reason why CJ wanted to distance himself from her was just because she attracted too much attention to him, but because he realized she was far too much trouble than she was worth and constantly crossed lines.
Either way, these are just my 0.02$, I've rather enjoyed this analysis and I'm looking forward to more in the future.
I think one of the reasons CJ still worked for them was some sort of primal fear, since he knew Tenpenny for a long time and was probably tormented by him even before he became an adult.
Ryder is dead by that time already cuz it was during when cj was working with toreno
@@digitaltrip5491 He wasn't, that was a double or something if I recall.
@@proletariandreams69 I'm playing threw the game again currently I'm not sure but what I am sure of is cj wasn't working for trenno yet
@@digitaltrip5491 Indeed. But that wasn't even what I was referring to. I was replying to the comment where you said he was in the helicopter CJ takes down before Toreto's questline kicks in. That wasn't him, as far as I recall he says that was a double or something to that effect.
Some of CJ’s actions are pretty much tied to others having a tight leash around him like Tenpenny, Toreno in addition to situations put on him like Big Smoke and Catalina. Not a bad person but he’s in a damned if you do or don’t situation.
well there is one situation where CJ Actions didnt involve smoke toreno catalina and that's the foreman incident
CJ Had a choice to beat the guy up and have a little chat with him............but he chose to lock him in a porta potty push the potty into a hole and bury the man in cement CJ Had a choice so thats purely his own actions
Killing the foreman for Kendl and ruining Madd Dogg's life for OG Loc (who CJ doesn't even like that much) so over the top
@@leonpaelinck With OG Loc, CJ wanted to make amends for abandoning Grove Street so that’s why he went along with it.
Top 5 good things CJ has done.
1) Rid the world of the corrupt cop regimen of C. R. A. S. H
2) Prevent Sweet from being incarcerated after he was imprisoned. Even IF Sweet was uptight and to his morale code, CJ still opted to help thanks to the exploits of Toreno.
3) NOT being in a relationship with Catalina. Like bruh. CJ didn't dodge a bullet. He evaded a whole bunker of ammunition. Thank God CJ didn't hitch with Catalina because that would be an awkward thing to explain to Cesar.
4) Being a good ally to Wu Zi Mu. Their partnership is one of my favorite friendships in all of GTA and I'd be lying if I said I didn't like the dynamic of a Dai Dai Lo of a Triad to basically have a common street thug pull off captain level duties on his behalf. And Woozie in kind treats CJ with respect.
5) Being just a truly outgoing person. He has a lot of pride in Grove Street and the gang and his family, with what's left of it anyway. And even then, he still welcomed Cesar even after his Varrio Eses perpetrated. Not to mention CJ is pretty intelligent and has pulled of a LOT of insane stuff. Like every GTA protagonist really. 😂
Honorable mentions. Getting Paul Maccer and Ken Rosenberg out of heat with the Leone Mafia. Saving Madd Dogg from suicidal depression and later helping him get the Rhyme Book back.
Destroying Big Smokes crack empire. And wanting to get rid of the drugs spreading across south central Los Santos. Even in Grove street because the Families gang rivals are dealing with crack and the crack epidemic are destroying the community. Like professional say once drugs come in, it opens a Pandora’s box of problems and consequences.
@@elperrodelautumo7511 number 4 is a my favorite one out of the 5
@@elperrodelautumo7511 This is true. But let's not forget. It's because of C.R.A.S.H and their corrupt ways alloying said crack to even come into the city via the Loco Syndicate. Smoke and Ryder were always going to sell out the Families and during the mission Wrong Side of the Tracks, Smoke practically gives away the fact he already established a linkage with the Loco Syndicate thanks to T-Bone Mendez and the San Fierro Rifa.
CJ character is basically same as Darth Vader , Both have done a lot of evil things but have a redeem sides , Both are also a deep characters.
Another honourable mention: Saving a refugees from a Human Trafficking event.
I always felt really guity burying that guy in cement in the construction site mission. I mean i know they insulted his sister but come on
yea CJ Had a choice on that one
I always found it hilarious, especially if you use satchel charges to blow him into the hole
I feel like CJ was in a pit of rage likely because of how fucked up everything was going on like sweet being arrested, mom's death and friends betrayal. He let his anger get the best of him.
@@malletUsergaming that's a reasonable argument i've done stupid shit when people insulted my parents i even hit someone with a plank of wood with a nail in it i regretted it
@@AlexisStreams it's like they say, no one fucks with family
CJ ruining Madd Dogg's life just to help OG Loc widen his career is very evil and deserves to be Top 1 bc Madd Dogg almost jumped off that building after his Drug Addiction, glad CJ felt guilty and helped Madd Dogg to reclaim his throne again.
Yeah plus CJ didn’t want to seem like “buster” because he wanted to make amends for abandoning Grove Street so you could say that he was technically manipulated.
@@mapleflag6518 Moral of the story is that if you try so hard to be respected, you're going to do dishonorable things. Lesson is that people's judgment of you isn't an excuse. hurting people for the sake of family isn't an excuse. CJ ironically became the biggest buster in gta history lmao. didn't even have the guts to confess to MD or Sweet.
The Hood manipulated everyone
Smoke wanted to be away from the hood however he ruins it with Drugs
But he didn't really think that far ahead about its impact when he did it. Remember that he's still got the ghetto mentality when the mission takes place, something that almost disappears entirely when he later meets Madd Dogg later in the game.
It’s cool to see someone covering these missions. Stuff like what CJ does here is what makes San Andreas just as dark as GTA IV in some respects- At least in GTA IV you can often spare the people you are ordered to whack. Sometimes it feels like End of The Line was not even enough of a satisfactory ending considering the scale of Tenpenny’s evil.
But your just being biased, you can't compare a gameplay aspect that was only introduced later in the series.
Deconstruction should've been #1 in my opinion. I've played this game a million times and to this day, it still amazes me on how he does it with no hesitation. I get its family but common. Its like, can't we just talk about this?😂. It is Gta so what do you expect. Lol.
What you mentioned at the end of the video about a series on evil/good things each gta protagonist has done actually sounds like a really good idea!
You can kill the Casino croupier in order to get the keycard. That was (optionally) evil!

@@LostSoulSilver Yes, But I can't handle that much gf, Carl is such a playa
Yeah, i remember now. CJ took out the guy that originally was supposed to meet up with her.
He stalked a civilian, who was literally the definition of an average joe just making a living.
GTAV almost did the same thing with Michael and the janitor, for when he was about to raid the fib building (cut content)
The Reconstruction mission actually made me feel bad the first time I played it because it was too cruel to bury someone alive in a portapotty, especially for no reason (catcalling? then CJ doesn't even do anything with the property which makes it even more unnecessary) and this is coming from someone who sometimes does burglary missions in the game just to then set fire to the house occupants
Yeah but the burglary missions are not actually "canon" to the overall story while *Deconstruction* is

Would you ever do and in depth video about Catalina? Maybe to explain why she is acting like this and why she betrays Claude and CJ? That or anything else about her? Like why she’s so crazy and acts the way she does.
Because she's a Karen.
Omg yasss. New lore video. Bout to help me get though this last bit of work. And most likely gone rewarch when get off lol.
Honestly I was always wondering, if CJ killed so many people without having problems with cops and I don't mean just normal NPCs but people in storyline too. Why he didn't just kill Tenpeny
I think once you open up the desert, the mission Interdiction after the Toreno cutscene in the beginning, you can go on the WCTR radio station and one of the radio says that Madd Dogg disappears or was having problems.
Your videos have always been great. I'm happy for you being able to break out of the GTA Online trap. It's heartwarming to see you able to make passion projects you can love as much as we do.
The most evil that he did you didn't mentioned was killing the farmers with the combined harvester
And in addition to the man he scares lock in the car to spit facts on them against the triads safety
@@Nikkou_sunbeamthe one with the man on the car wasn't an evil thing CJ did.
He did it because one of the Mafia families had been trashing Woozie's casino and Woozie couldn't identify who had done it. Then when the Triads caught one of them, CJ suggests to tie him up so they can get information on which family had done it.
This information becomes useful, especially when some of Woozie's casino chips were planted with fake ones, to which he says that the mafia family who targets them has a factory making it in the city. Saves him the hassle of trying to gain information again.
Keep these lore videos coming. I learn something new from every video.
personally i think cj murdering all those witnesses and causing the los santos riots and all those hundreds maybe even thousands of people died is worse than ruining one guy's life even if it was madd dogg

That's why, during the countryside missions, CJ needed to pay The Truth and why CJ says that "there's a ton of that stuff" in TT's van when they were moving to San Fiero. If you pay attention to the dialogue in the cutscene of the mission Body Harvest, Tenpenny even vaguely mentions the D. A. while high.
How to save your family in a dangerous situation
Written by Carl Johnson
1.) Killing dozens of people
2.) Be a peasant to a police officer
3.) Be betrayed and played
4.) Be a help of a psycho woman
5.) Ruin a man's life then Help him
CJ is a humorous and Funny character untill you mess with his Family
Other missions I would like to include -
The Black Project : This is one of the best missions in the game, but Carl killed almost a hundred of innocent Army men for an order and stole their most important, a 50 Million worth project from them. I actually felt quite sad after hearing it's worth just after I stole it. Not to mention he stole something almost equally worthy right after completing this ( in Green Goo) and quite the same in robbing uncle Sam.
Happy that you finally posted,hope that soon you make that Claude lore video and that yt don't desmonetized another lore video or any video
I don’t blame CJ for doing those missions, he was forced to do it and was blackmailed by Jeffery and Tenpenny
He wasn't forced to do Deconstruction.
Jeffrey?
@@Michael_De_Santa-Unofficial OG Loc's real name
@Menace to society "CJ is a bad person."
No shit Sherlock, It's called Grand Theft Auto not Superman.
Blackmailed by Jeffery? You sound like a complete fool. Clearly you know nothing about it, he was blackmail by tenpenny but Jeffrey? No he wasn't, only by tenpenny, get your damn facts straight
Cj is not crazy just really passionate about his friends and family
he is crazy but not selfish.
@@gamingandmapping2281 You've gotta be pretty selfish to go around robbing and killing people for money. Everyone wants money but not everyone will go to the same lengths to get such money.
Claude and Tommy might be the most selfish greedy protagonists in the series.
@@Hagarism i dont think tommy was selfish. He liked sonny but sonny betrayed him. Same with lance. Tommy is not as good as cj but he is not that selfish. Dimitri is the most evil antognist
@@kevinnorris6558 cj is selfish but he liked sweet and grove street families. But he i is a little selfish. My fav gta game is gta 4 what bout yall. No fights.
Great lore video as always Pro!! Hope your day is going well.
I love your content, Professional!
The riot in this game is based on the Rodney King riots that took place in L.A. in the same time period when the police officers who nearly beat him to death were found not guilty of all charges
omg yesss i love ur videos im happy to see this one uploaded
Man that "definitive edition" really is inferior to original graphics
Wow, what an original take! You must be the bravest person in the world 😐😐
Yeah rockstar really dropped the ball on this release...
Another person going by the popular opinion instead of thinking for themself lol what a sheep
@@herrforesight-Satanisking Herr Foresight when he sees an opinion that someone had (dude shut up the definitive edition was actually garbage to the original)
@@aljaberhk What?
Lore videos are the best.
Also you forgot the mission black project where CJ helps the truth by killing all of the soldier's just because he wants a jetpack which he can't fly. Truth is one of the worst characters in SA.
As for the Toreno thing. It's safer for him to try and maintain the status quo as at any point Toreno can turn on him. He has no choice, I doubt he even believed toreno would keep his word.
Great video as per
Bro Amazing video
Thanks for another great video professional. I think covering all the gta characters evil doings would be a great idea. It may take you a while to do Claude though because he's so cold and by far the worst. He did everything he did without saying a word. I know that wasn't the reason they didn't give Claude a voice but it does make him seem that much more cold. Kind of like Jason or Michael Myers. They could look you straight in the face and then impale you or something. Anyway, these lore videos are awesome man. 👍👏👏👏
Seriously grow a brain. Name atleast 5 worst things he did?
Ooh this is good pro, can't wait to see the comments though
Enjoyed the video and liked
Glad to see more lore videos looking forward to more very soon.
I just don’t get the logic behind the Deconstruction mission. Carl could’ve just argued with them until they lose. What Carl did is an overreaction
I think he felt like if he argued with them they would not get the message so he thought it was best that he kills some of them and bury the foreman under concrete so that they would know to never mess with his family. Lots of gangsters and mobsters do these kind of things if you mess with their family.
@@b.a.m.mdoublem1196 Not True. At all. They might Hurt someone if someone says shit about their Family sure but not exterminate everyone in The vicinity for something so little
@@paulghencea9037 well maybe Carl wanted to do that for sometime. He was just looking for a reason to do it because that construction site was eventually going to overshadow his garage business because you hear him say "I was thinking about me getting some new land anyway" so he wanted to do that for quite sometime and when one of those construction men insulted Kendl(Carl himself was not sure which one was it) he finally got a reason to do it and yes I agree that was one of the most messed up and evil things that CJ has done.
@@b.a.m.mdoublem1196 He did say that but he never actually bought that land afterwards or did anything with it. Maybe he did do something after The story ended but still...
@@paulghencea9037 maybe he did but we'll never know
GTA SA Fact:-
The foreman did end up surviving after that incident, you can hear that on the radio as well.
Really? Was it a WCTR interview? I never knew that
Sauce pls
Even so it still doesn't excuse what he did
@@malletUsergaming Yeah... CJ had no way of knowing that the Foreman would survive and probably didn't expect him to.
It makes sense, either because cement doesn't dry quickly
Thanks for the video pro, dont worry about uploading it today the video is here and we thank you for that!
Nice video 😊
2:35 It's actually weed. It's why the SF officer says a half of Mexico in the trunk.
Exactly,plus it comes from truth s farm,thats why you had to bring him money
@@ionutdumitrescu676 the parts of where marijuana are grown is in the states of Sonora, Chihuahua, And Sinaloa in Mexico.
@@elperrodelautumo7511 ok,but im saying in the events of the game
The worst thing CJ done was not follow the damn train.
Its not cj's fault. Its the noobs who cant finish that mission
Absolutely love this video.
We do love them! You’re good at the lore videos, Prof. I’d say Probably the best on UA-cam.
You can actually save the construction worker in the 'Deconstruction' mission, you just need some satchel charges, you can find one near the hospital near the beach in SF, when you throw the mobil toilet in the pit, pit the satchel charges and blow them, the toilet will fly out of the pit and you can still continue the mission, and I'm sure that the person inside will be alive.
Bomb proof toilet lol
Most of these are Tenpenny's fault. He pretty much owned CJ as he said before.
I honestly love these lore videos you make. Not only because of how thourought your analysis are, but because of the comment section. I love reading everyone's comments giving their takes about the GTA lore. A franchise that's actually famous for things like gameplay, music or memes and not actually because of the well written, tight lore Rockstar has written over the years, truly underappreciated and I'm glad to see lots of people praising it's story.
Really great lore video.
Waiting for your Claude Lore video as well. 😀
People don't realize that they aren't just playing as criminals in GTA Games, they are playing as *Villains*
Yes, they usually don't go out of there way to kill innocents, but regardless they willingly commit actions to complete their goals regardless if it means killing innocents.
From the most evil like Trevor and Claude to the least evil like CJ and Niko, all are bad guys.
I disagree, there anti heroes not villains. Plus I think it's questioning how Claude is one of the most evil when he literally kills no innocent people and can't talk, not saying he isn't at least bad though
They're more like Anti-Heroes than Villans, though. Their methods only differ. They're more like The Punisher and Deadpool.
Also again I just want to mention this Professional the reason why GTA 3 and Vice City don't allow the protagonist to go on water was because Rockstar didn't think about a mission for swimming
But they kinda had some in-universe lore for it.
GTA3 had the waters contaminated, which is why Claude couldn't swim.
GTA VC had sharks swimming around in the water, which is why Tommy can't swim. Though I doubt he'd die to a bunch of invisible sharks floating around even the shallow waters such as the beach.
Excellent video. Small correction, it isn't coke that CJ puts in the DA's car. It is actually weed. Truth loves the stuff and a cop says "He must have 2 tons of Mary back here"
To be fair theprofessional doesn't come across as a "you party?" Kinda fella
I wouldn't consider the robberies he did with Catalina as much evil. First off, he's kinda forced to do them, it's basically the only way he can get some decent money in the middle of nowhere after Sweet got caught. He has to put on with Catalina because he has no other opening; and the minute he does later in the story, he leaves. Aside from that, rescuing her is just something that makes sense; if she gets caught the cops would most likely get a trail on him and put him in jail as well.
Another fantastic video
CJ, Franklin, and Niko are my favorite gta characters
Mine are CJ , Niko , Tommy and Trevor
Franklin is also good protagonist but he's a bit too tame to be one of my most favorite GTA protagonist. I mean Franklin is also strong , brutal , deadly and a mass murderer but he's a bit less violent compared to most other GTA protagonists. Badass dangerous killers protagonists are fire IMO.
I love the passion you have for these videos I hope you get bigger for longer lore videos. Can you try doing lore for other games like mafia or hell the sleeping dog game
You should do top 5 videos for Claude in terms of top 5 most good or honorable & evil things he has done. Would be interesting to see 👍
It's probably safe to assume the canon way the Valet went down was by getting KO"d rather than murdered, kinda like how Franklin does the same thing to get a disguise to steal the car. You could choose to kill him, but obviously given the whole point of the mission Carl had to do, I think it's fair to surmise he didn't actually murder the guy or else that's super messed up just to frame a guy with drugs.
But there is a blood pool underneath him, I don't see why it's unlikely
@@malletUsergaming Like every other character ever who gets wrecked in the game? That's hardly proof of his death.
@@TheGravityShifter but it counts in the stats menu as a kill
@@malletUsergaming Yeah but so would "killing" that one character in Liberty City Stories but canonically he survived since we see him in GTA III working as a Mechanic. The game doesn't have a KO mechanic so obviously it's gonna count it as a kill even if it truly isn't.
@@TheGravityShifter I don't know any mechanic in GTA 3 that you knocked out?
I love your vids men keep it up
FANTASTIC video
In cj’s defense, with the exception of the foremen and madd dogg he had very logical reasons to do the rest of the things listed. Even in the case of madd dogg, cj was just helping out a supposed friend and i doubt that he expected madd dogg’s life to spiral the way it did after his rhyme book was stolen
I’ve been looking forward to this
Catalina is such an annoying character
That's because she yells alot and she's angry
Excellent video as always, can't comment so frequently as before but I am always watching them. Keep up the good work.
