@@KyoJo_V5 Michael and Lester have a healthy partnership, Michael sees Franklin as a son and Franklin acts like he hates Lamar sometimes but still knows that he’ll always be like his brother, but Michael and Trevor literally want to kill each other all the time
I’d always admired Lester he was a very interesting character. The fact he knew exactly what Michael was doing at any given moment after north Yankton is scary. He was very understanding of the underworld too. After 10 years I still have a poster of him in his room looking at encrypted government codes. So badass.

7:20 Did you notice how the audio quality changes between the intercom and the natural voice depending on Lester's proximity? 10 years and this game still surprises me
It's top quality audio engineering done by professionals. The amount of work necessary to make the audio blend or "splice" like that takes a lot of practice and a lot of patience to get right. I this know because I worked in a AA games company 10 about years ago working with audio and sounds. If you have played Tarkov and you might of noticed how the audio in that game is pretty scuffed in certain areas like in stairways, standing outside of doors and having the ability to hear footsteps and rustling of clothing 30+ meters away etc.. it's because the localisation and referencing isn't calibrated correctly, hence weird distortion effects. People don't realise how difficult it is to get right and audio has the biggest impact over visuals for any movie, game or what ever it may be. GTA 5 is a masterclass with it's sound, 100%.

7:40 I really like this detail. Michael is so afraid of Trevor that he conditioned himself to think he’s been dead for a long time. He doesn’t even bother to ask Lester if Trevor was still alive, he just interrogates him on how he died. GTA 5 gets a lot of flak in the community for a poor story/writing, especially compared to GTA 4/SA. Moments like these though go to show how the writing is still really thought out
I've always liked the GTA 5 story I think its looked on poorly now mostly because of what GTA 5 became with online. I myself would have loved some story dlc with these characters maybe even a whole expansion ala ballad of gay tony/lost and the damn focusing on each individual character more.
It's not bad, but it does feel a bit muddled compared to SA and IV. I feel like Franklin gets shafted by the three-protagonist mechanic the most, since most of the story goes into Michael and Trevor's dynamic. Franklin doesn't get a lot of development, and he's left to play the straight-man to Trevor and Lamar's antics, and Michael's moodiness, which, to me at least, makes him come off as a nag. Another thing is how the stories unfold: SA: CJ gets betrayed and has to build himself back up to the point where he can take back his home. IV: Niko arrives in a new place and is torn between seeking a new start and obtaining revenge for the darkest moment of his past. V: Mostly about Michael's deal with Dave to betray Trevor and Brad, but with a bunch of sub-plots weaved in that divide the games focus a bit too much. Ultimately I feel like R* made the right call with IV in focusing the main story on Niko and putting Johnny and Luis into their own separate DLCs. GTA V's writing just feels like the writers were spinning too many plates. But that's just my take.
I feel mostly the problems of GTA V are the villains and side characters. Whereas the old games had people like Gonzalez, Lance, Sonny, Big Smoke, Sweet, Ryder, Caesar, Toreno, Woozie, The Truth, Packie, Francis, Playboy X, Manny, Dimitri, Roman, Little Jacob, Rastaman, Brucie, Mallorie, Michelle, and a couple others that were all a strong side cast and definitely memorable, GTA V doesn't have much of that. The only ones I can remember off the top of my head is Lamar, Lester, Simeon (who was sidelined too early), Davey, Madrazo, Michael's family, Ron, Wade, Chef, Patricia, Friedlander, and... that one dude who worked at the contstruction. And the fact that some of these characters barely even appeared. It's even worse when you compare the villains, but I think I've made my point. What is however the true highlight of GTA V's story and one that many people refuse to accept are the protagonists. The story, the acting, their background, mannerisms, and everything are all captured fucking perfectly, and I know this might be ballsy but I'd say they are about as good as Niko Bellic and definitely tower amongst the other protags. They are still the best part of this game, everytime I replay the story I always catch new detail and background to them, and everytime they just shine more and more. I honestly think the protags carry the entire story.
@@Noah_Levy I find it to *be* Franklin's story actually. He is only sidelined *because he himself feels sidelined.* Intentionally. While in the first heist, he made money, he kept getting shafted after. He did all the pro work and he was never happy. Go hit his bong, Franklin's depressed as all hell. He's genuinely depressed. He's learning that even with money, and the home from Lester, happiness doesn't come along with it. At one point, as he's getting cars, he straight up says "If I hadn't met you, this is the exact shit I'd be doing." And that is why he makes the final choice. There's a lot of foreshadowing and attempts to sway you (the player's) final choice. As the game comes closer to completion, we see him seeing the worst sides of Mike. And Mike gets verbally aggressive with him during the FIB Raid. With Trevor, we hear him literally say "Trevor and I are cool" to the feds. The entire game, we're told about loyalty from Trevor, survival from Mike. Even though he's got a huge house now, at the end of the game... He's still Franklin. We as the player decide how he's developed as a character. "The Sensible Option" is the mission name for when you burn Trevor alive. Deathwish is of course the canon answer. Where he does what he has to do to survive; and he puts his trust in his friends. Mike, Lester, Lamar, and Trevor. It's the culmination of the lessons he learned from them. He survived by putting his trust in his crew. All the loyalty lessons from Trevor. All the survival from Mike. The coordination from Lester. And Lamar, because they have each other's backs.
@@hunter_0221COD hasn’t had that much change since Bo1 once they nailed the formula down. Battlefield was tits up until BF5. Maybe I’m overthinking it buts it’s definitely COD
I mean same goes for Franklin. When Jimmy asks Franklin if he play Righteous Slaughter, the CoD spoof in game, Franklin mentions that only the first few were good....
It's pretty telling how chill Lester is towards Michael despite what happened in North Yankton. Plus, with Lester being this savvy with information, he probably already knew of Michael's actions, and unlike Trevor (who left Michael to the mercy of the Triads when he found out, and unless the player chose Ending C, they never patch things up), was hardly antagonistic about it. Though Lester did make Michael do some grunt work to earn his trust back, but once it's done, the two were able to plan the heists together with minimal friction (mostly Lester chiding Michael for the consequences of his actions). Heck, Lester gave Michael's son Jimmy a job in GTA Online, albeit being in a menial role, but the fact that Lester gave Jimmy a chance shows the level of friendship he has with Michael.
You notice too how Michael generally tolerates his biting comments about his life. He's one of the few people he wouldn't fly off the deep end at over hearing him say some of the things he does.
@@WC3fanatic997 He knows Lester isn't a threat to him physically though. We see Mike literally assert that before the FIB Raid. That heist is meant to sway your choice to possibly kill Mike at the end. Lester's too dangerous to kill, he's too valuable to not be friends with. If he knew there'd be no possible consequence, like Lester likely having a Dead-Man's Switch, I bet he'd have been taken down too.
@@mattmark94 story-wise definitely, online mode is a hit or miss on some certain updates. My personal favorites was The Contract and the Diamond Casino Heist

Kinda creepy lol but funny how all of them were so close from each other (well Trevor's supposedly is 4 hours from LS, but in-game feels way less than that)
Another underrated friendship is Lester and Franklin. They enjoy each others company and Lester ends up going to Franklin so he can help him take out targets.
It’s almost like Lester knew that someday Michael was going to reach out to him. So he watched Michael closely and moved to where Michael moved and simply waited for the day where Michael would need his help again.
"J...just like the old days" says he hitting a asthma inhalator right after that, walking with a cane, and still being the most underrated character who actually are a true mastermind
Even though GTA V's story doesn't have the same quality as the GTA IV story but still that does not mean it is bad. GTA V's story is meant to be more light-hearted and fun.
Never understood this. GTA IV has an amazing story but GTA 5 is just as good if not better. The one thing that is true is that GTA IV is just much darker and apparently people like darker more.

Lester really is good friends with Michael. If you choose to kill Michael, he sends all of Michael’s cut from the final heist to his family. He also gives Jimmy a job at the arcade in online. Lester is definitely one of the most powerful allies anyone can have
I've been watching your compilations and GODDDD I love GTA V so much. Not just the story but the interactions between the characters gotta be a highlight too. They're so entertaining to watch !!
6:12 I never played GTA V and only played GTA IV and below. Just played the entire game this Christmas and lemme tell when I heard this, my heart just melted.
Thank you for making these videos, I’ve played through so many times I skip the cutscenes and some dialogue but I’ve forgotten how much detailed the story was
Lester is the most badass and dangerous character in the game. The fact he’s a cripple doesn’t stop him. I think it’s Motor Neuron Disease he has, and still has a thirst for the ladies.
I kinda like Lester because he’s a pretty cool guy. But when he mentions of our online characters being too unpredictable he’s kinda got a point. No one knows what we are going to do or how we plan to do things in heists missions or anything. The only ones who know what we are going to do is us. One minute someone thinks we will go stealth. The next we go guns blazing on everyone killing anyone and anything on sight. Our online characters only do the things we make them do. We control our characters lives. We do things our ways. When things don’t work out we find another way to make a mission effective. We fail going stealth we go loud (except if you are more of a stealth person than you just restart the whole mission). But no one can predict what we are going to do next. People like Lester think we are doing things his way. But we do things our way all the time. Pavel even says at some point in the Cayo perico heist that it’s our operation that we choose to do. Our characters are just different than the story mode characters. Because no one knows what we will do next. Sometimes not even us.
I like that Michael pretty much never argues with Lester. He respects him too much to really even try to lie to him + he just knows that Lester is pretty much always in the right because of how smart he is
"there was a... an eastern European guy making moves in Liberty City, but.. nah he went quiet." Nico belic my friends. I love that rockstar references their older games. I hope in GTA VI they mention the old crew and lester.
I agree with Michael. I've had this game for almost a decade and I've never gotten through half of it. I prefer to watch GTA5 like a movie than play it.
One of the biggest holes I found storywise was Michael asking Lester about Trevor, Lester saying he basically fell off the grid. Only to tell him while casing the Paleto Score that he saw the title of ownership and glassware ordered for the joint a year prior.

Oh my god Lester is such an amazing and funny character. I’m gonna miss all these characters in gta 6 bro
11:51 Trevor havig the time of his life.
Thank you for making these videos, I’ve played through so many times I skip the cutscenes and some dialogue but I’ve forgotten how much detailed the story was
1:28 bakery workers every morning
This warranted a unnecessarily long laugh
6:31 definitive proof that michael IS indeed in witness protection
"informal witness protection"
Marty witness protection program
“Witness protection for what? No one was convicted of anything!”
2:31 love how the subtitles say: Fashionably retro, ‘weird-for-a-forty-five-year-old-man-but-I-cannot-let-go-of-the-1980s’ bag,
So you love how the subtitles say EXACTLY WHAT IS SAID ABOVE. Good to know.
I’ve always been a fan of Lester he’s the evil genius nerd that is behind the computer love his role in the game.
Dave Norton: Michael’s deuteragonist
Ron: Trevor’s deuteragonist
Lamar: Franklin’s deuteragonist
Lester: Everybody’s deuteragonist
This game was seriously like watching a show I love Rockstar's storytelling
I love how thrilled they all were at the opportunity to take the bad people out of each other’s lives
Lester is the most badass and dangerous character in the game. The fact he’s a cripple doesn’t stop him. I think it’s Motor Neuron Disease he has, and still has a thirst for the ladies.
I kinda like Lester because he’s a pretty cool guy. But when he mentions of our online characters being too unpredictable he’s kinda got a point. No one knows what we are going to do or how we plan to do things in heists missions or anything. The only ones who know what we are going to do is us. One minute someone thinks we will go stealth. The next we go guns blazing on everyone killing anyone and anything on sight. Our online characters only do the things we make them do. We control our characters lives. We do things our ways. When things don’t work out we find another way to make a mission effective. We fail going stealth we go loud (except if you are more of a stealth person than you just restart the whole mission). But no one can predict what we are going to do next. People like Lester think we are doing things his way. But we do things our way all the time. Pavel even says at some point in the Cayo perico heist that it’s our operation that we choose to do. Our characters are just different than the story mode characters. Because no one knows what we will do next. Sometimes not even us.
I half expect them to be robots
4:00 damn Lester hit the nail dead on the head with that comment.😂😂
3:40 I like to think he domed and proceeded to bag jimmy. Would be cool if they had a cyber rivalry
The eastern european guy making moves in liberty city was Niko Belic.
Nothing gets past you.
@@tunemelon2164Wdym?
And who are the Irish crazies and the group from the south?
@@TheFunnyDictator The IRA and the KKK
@@TheFunnyDictator Irish crazy is GTA 3 and the south is vice city. Someone else pointed this out
19:47 these are not the droids we're looking for. reference
4:00 crazy how ten years ago they point out the oversaturated market in superhero and remade movies… still hasn’t changed
28:09 Franklin drank PISS 😂😂😂😂😂
Giorno: “First time?”
9:05 Haha!, Michael’s sarcastic laugh.
Did anyone else get an old gta 5 trailer for an ad halfway through this video
16:33
“What took you so long?”
“wHa ToOk Ya So LaAng?”
I like franklin and lesters relationship too, they chilling
"Hello, Franklin :)"
"Wassup?"
I love that Lester references Nikko and your online character in the same cutscene
6:11 Lester mentioning niko
when lester says ''this is not the car were looking for'' he sounds like the bear from among the sleep
Michael with aviators looks like a Cold War operative. Like Russell Adler from Black Ops Cold War but with dark hair
Every time trevor says what took you so long always gets me
16:35 Michael: what took you so long? Trevor: What took so long 😂😂
27:04 im gon start making that sound whenever i see my homies
"Now its just superheros, romantic comedies, and remakes." This is SO true.
Even more so nowadays lol
Remember: this game came out in 2013.
Lester looks like AL from Toy story 2!
15:14 Michael about to say "it's complicated" before realizing he's talking to the one person who could un-complicate it.
I like that Michael pretty much never argues with Lester. He respects him too much to really even try to lie to him + he just knows that Lester is pretty much always in the right because of how smart he is
"franklin im sorry!" this shows how much mike realy loves frank
"there was a... an eastern European guy making moves in Liberty City, but.. nah he went quiet." Nico belic my friends. I love that rockstar references their older games. I hope in GTA VI they mention the old crew and lester.
Ehhh in online Ron said trever became a guru
“ Now it's just superheroes, romantic comedies and remakes..”
I hate how this is still true
6:08 The Niko bellic reference makes me smile :)
4:00 never a truer word has been spoken
6:27 we really are unpredictable (he’s referring to our Gta online characters)
Gonna miss this guy once we move to Leonida.😢
One of the best GTA games in the world.
I think we tend to forget how dangerous Lester can be if he really wants to be, he could've made life hell for Mike
16:35 still gets me 10 years later
I agree with Michael. I've had this game for almost a decade and I've never gotten through half of it. I prefer to watch GTA5 like a movie than play it.
I’m going to miss Lester

3:56 this aged like fine wine
What does that mean?
@@tailsfan11westandwithukraine it means what I wrote
"what took you so long?"
"wHaT tOoK yOu So LoNg?????"
One of the biggest holes I found storywise was Michael asking Lester about Trevor, Lester saying he basically fell off the grid. Only to tell him while casing the Paleto Score that he saw the title of ownership and glassware ordered for the joint a year prior.
Thanks brother, for editing those video, I like your channel a lot
Glad you like them! Thank you very much!✨
at 6:10 mans makes the best gta 4 reference
