@@vaasmontenegro8303 Well look lets just see this a mastermind betrayer Dmitri was COMPLETELY afraid, Dmitri wouldn't betray certain people unless he could get away with that but with how powerful petrovic is having Dmitri offed wouldn't matter

That asshole planned to kill Mikhail using Niko from the beginning... fucking snake
Nah I really doubt it, he only started trying to kill Niko after Ray told him to. He even tried to get Faustin to stop him from getting Kenny killed but he couldn't convince him. He probably wasn't even Niko had a past with Ray until he spoke him him after Final Destination (when he calls you and tells you he's gonna talk to some people, he probably went to Ray asking him for protection or to get him to contact Kenny, he must have mentioned Niko's name which got Ray's attention). Hell, he was still friendly to you during The Master And The Molotov, so he must have told him about this past while Niko was killing Faustin.
Karel Roden as Mikhail Faustin is an award-worthy performance. Characters like him and his wife Ilyena made this game feel like it was REAL, not a cartoon. He's probably my favorite character. He's intense, violent, has a hair trigger temper, and is basically on the fast track to self destruction, but I got the sense he was also heartbroken...in lots of pain. He loved Dimitri like a brother, gave years of his life bringing him up, and I think he saw Dimitri's darker ambitions clearly very early on. Somewhere along the line, he realized his partner would eventually betray him, and that Dimitri had been insidiously manipulating and inching his way closer and closer to toppling his rule for a long while now, carrying on the facade of a rational, loyal business partner; lying to his face, making decisions behind his back, even plying him with painkillers...I think this is what broke him: Realizing his closest ally; his best friend he would have given his life for, was really his greatest enemy. ("Something changed in him...years ago..") All these sudden rage fits, coke use, and reckless decisions Faustin made were a furious, last ditch effort to sabotage the reputation and organization they had built together, in the hopes of leaving some major heat for Dimitri to deal with when he inevitably takes over. Unfortunately, this unhinged violence ended up being just what Dimitri needed to turn Niko and the criminal underworld of Hove Beach against him. When he is confronted in Perestroika, he is defeated but not even surprised. All he could do was put up a prideful final fight, and use his last moments to warn Niko of Dimitri's true nature. It's ironic, but true; He was TOO KIND to him. He let the snake into the nest, watched him coil in wait for years, finally striking as soon as the moment was opportune, and he let it happen because he could not bring himself to actually confront or kill his beloved 'brother' Dimitri, even after he had long since realized his treachery. Really a tragic story of betrayal. If you like this actor and this role, check him out in the movie "Running Scared." He plays another Russian gangster, and also happens to be my favorite character in that story as well.
@@danl2136 he was also in Paul Walker's Running Scared 2006 as one of the main villains (Anzor Yugorsky). When I first heard Faustin, I immediately thought of Anzor.
Faustin was such a great character, one of the best in Gta 4 with great cutscenes. Really hoped for an option to spare him. Shame that he was taken out so early in the story, he should have had more screentime.

I took it as that was just an example of the true horrors of war that he came across when he was fighting, and seeing such things in turn made him soulless as well
He shot whoever he hated more the most. I know I'm late but Vlad was only sleeping with Mallorie, Faustin shot his cousin, and Dimitri fucked over Niko and Roman countless times. Obviously, it's more sophisticated than that but I haven't played the game in a while lol.
That's not right, Niko loathed Vlad, but he didn't appear to have anything personal against Mikhail. Vlad was an asshole, disrespectful towards him and his cousin, used to call him "yokel", threatened their lives and fucked Roman's wife as the last straw. You could see him relish killing him. Mikhail, on the other hand, actually saved Niko's life, forgave him for killing his employee and was always kind of friendly and respectful towards him. He only killed him to save his own life, as Faustin had brought things to a point where there was no other way.
>Kind and friendly towards Niko You're stretching it a bit there, but yeah, Faustin was one of the most reasonable employers in the early half. I say the early half because most employers after Elizabeta (This is without counting Jacob and Badman) are fairly nice/reasonable/know to respect Niko and his abilities.
I know it is late but in GTA 3 you start working for the Italian Mafia where as in GTA 4 you work for the Russian Mafiya. Sure they do similar things but both groups tend to take their nationalities quite seriously lol
I didn't like Mikhail since he was cheating on his own wife by fucking Vlad's sister and with other girls at his own club. Plus, the drugs made him more of a bad person.
Man, I love this game. I can't understand the people, who don't like it, because it was "too serious" for them. I mean, look at The last of us. It's a very serious game, and it's extremely good because of the seriousness. And just because GTA was known for the comedy, the satire and that you always laugh, it doesn't mean that GTA is not allowed to do a more serious game...
This, imo, is the best GTA game in the series (with SA a close second, and V a close third) and certainly one of the best games of all time (including Episodes from LC) The best stories, characters, beautiful city setting (the grim, dark ghettoes and the bright sprawling metropolis emulating NYC just screams "jungle of crime and corruption and endless possibilities" more than the sunny, beachy Los Santos in V) and serious tone with touches of humor is better than the goofy cartoonish violence and humor in V. And V is still very good, but IV just gives a much more compelling and down to earth story and atmosphere.
While real hitmen kill fast and silently or at least they do it as fast as possible and then bolt away, Niko announces his homicidal intent to the guy standing on the other side of the station, including precise details about who exactly wants him dead and his reasons. Fucking legend

Nice to see a Czech actor dubbing a Russian mafia guy. Good job there, Rockstar. You made me as a citizen of the town where the Mikhail voice actor was born, proud.
For some reason, Mikhail's and Dimitri's friendship reminds me of Billy Grey's and Johnny Klebitz's. Both were best friends for long time. Each of them has a similar intention. Dimitri and Johnny wanted to make money, although they're following their leaders' orders. Mikhail and Billy were both drug addicts of cocaine whose violent rashs brought problems to those around them, leading to their own demise. Although Johnny was betrayed by Billy, unlike Dimitri who double-crossed Mikhail, ended up having his former best friend killed out of his actions. One more significant common thing is that in the end they met the same fate, but in a different circumstances. Also, both Dimitri and Johnny were 39 years old by their deaths.
First of all billy tried getting Johnny killed and mikhail faustin don’t kill his own people second billy was addicted to herroin and faustin was addicted to cocaine third dimitri is a traitor and Johnny kills people who betrays him רמי פריצקר
Yeah but Johnny was more or less straight and cared about their buisness and friends whereas Dimitri was hungry for power and didn't care for any casualties.
@@josephdalton6968 "Mikhail doesn't kill his own people" LMAO, the first seconds we see him in the game he literally shot his own soldier in the head for no reason, wym he doesn't kill his own people? 😂
- You. Go and kill this guy. - Are you sure? - Sure? No, I'm not. Right now, I'm wondering if it's him or you. You, prove you're loyal. Go, and kill the guy. - Don't question my loyalty. - Then don't question my orders! My favorite moment from video
"Wherever you go, people will find you, if they want you badly enough". I dare say this is a nod to Bulgarin appearing very soon after killing Faustin.
“American greed will take everyone, it’s like a disease” Perfectly sums up the game (and in part implies Deal being the canon ending) Also this line is way too much of a truth bomb to be a throw away line in a shooting mission
Why Revenge is canon . Hang out with Kate and Roman notice how he behave's to Roman he make's fun of his cousin, I'm a changed man Niko, who, where is that man, but when you hang out with Kate he show's emotion's I never told Roman what happened to his mother . I told him his mother died in a burning house but she was actually raped and shot to death. There is no doubt in my mind that Niko listen's to Kate in the end as Niko want's to leave the criminal underworld and have a family. Plus Gerald before going to prison say's Pls Niko look after my family .
Gotta love Mikhail. He had some best one-liners in this game. Such as… *”My fuc*in wife is watching television!”* *”My wife doesn’t like when people shout!”* *”You’re about cuttin some guy in my house, to find out he is his cousin?”* *”Dimitri will turn on you as well! You should discover this.”*
He's in one room with a drug-fuelled psychopath who has a gun in his hand PLUS he has a bodyguard standing right next to him I'd say the same thing too.
Mikhail for sure, Michael seems pretty okay with his daughter being a skank as long as she's not doing it on TV. Trevor is more protective of Michael's daughter than Michael is.
@@erichh1361 the part where u said that abt trevor made me laugh internally. It is true tho. Now that i think of it, mikhail did order niko to kill any man involved with his daughter
Mikhail Faustin is very similar to Marty Williams from GTA VCS : they are both leaders of a Mob. They are both Abusive husbands. They both have one daughter. And they are both killed by the protagonist during the first act of the game

You created another masterpiece of one of the many "gta-Story's". The way you handle the Editor and how you tell the Stories... In my opinion you are a real artist. Keep doing such a good job, ;)
It's compelling, because Faustin could have been a good mentor to Niko. He tries to teach him about loyalty and discipline. He kept Niko alive when he would have killed anyone else out of impulse. I mean, just look at how he killed Andre who he knew for years in a split second and kept Niko around. Faustin could have developed a relationship with Niko had he been spared.
That sucks Nikko was tricked into killing him. Mikhail and Nikko would make a good long lasting friendship since both like working for each other and both are loyal. If it wasn’t for Dimitri, who was a manipulative psychopath who only cared about himself, and would do anything to betray anybody.
@@longlost247 yes. They are both sociopaths and have a large temper, but at the same time they are both extremely loyal, and they know what respect is.
@@ryanjessen9181 yeah, in the scenes, Niko was in he didn’t seem friendly, because there was issues. Most of the time he was on Coke, so he was all coked out, but also he wasn’t a happy man, as Niko had to do a lot of his jobs and clean up parts of his life, he wasn’t happy about. Although he loved Dimitri, they didn’t see eye to eye anymore and little did he know Dimitri would betray him. I think he was a better character than Dimitri, because he was loyal. He always thought Dimitri was his brother, and you could tell Niko eventually felt bad for killing him, because he got tricked himself. He’s like Trevor he’s got some serious anger issues, as in the first scene, he killed the guy who kidnapped Roman and Niko and then he shot Roman for not being quiet. But like I mentioned, he’s pretty loyal to who he’s with.
He brings incredible grit to the story that doesn’t come back for most of it, and the sad realisation of what a mistake it was to kill him for Ratmitri
0:32-0:54 No one's gonna comment that Mikhail suddenly seems to know Niko and call him by his name? When I played this for the first time I thought maybe they knew each other, like they were comrades in the army or something.
You reversed the truck into that shop? Nice driving skills! There are many things I didn't watch while playing; for instance, I didn't see the cutscene, where Faustin shot at Roman. It's a shame that Faustin turned into that, I bet he was a good man. Also, it's sad to watch how he treats his wife. :(
Call me mean, but i think his comments are hilarious. "Superstitious old crone, ill see you in hell" Idk why, but that one in particular makes me laugh everytime
You are the most amazing UA-camr ever. When I am upset I watch your videos and I'm happy again thanks for making these videos and keep up the good work from your number 1 fan!!
Fun fact Faustin is based of Tony Montana from scarface we can see that by the scar on his face and the coke addiction also he likes to spend his time at the club
Faustin respected Niko for being an honest man...
The opposite of Dimitri.
He also respects him for being competent. Everytime he thanks Niko on the phone it was so heartfelt.

Dimitri and Johnny wanted to make money, although they're following their leaders' orders. Mikhail and Billy were both drug addicts of cocaine whose violent rashs brought problems to those around them, leading to their own demise. Although Johnny was betrayed by Billy, unlike Dimitri who double-crossed Mikhail, ended up having his former best friend killed out of his actions. One more significant common thing is that in the end they met the same fate, but in a different circumstances. Also, both Dimitri and Johnny were 39 years old by their deaths.
First of all billy tried getting Johnny killed and mikhail faustin don’t kill his own people second billy was addicted to herroin and faustin was addicted to cocaine third dimitri is a traitor and Johnny kills people who betrays him רמי פריצקר
Yeah but Johnny was more or less straight and cared about their buisness and friends whereas Dimitri was hungry for power and didn't care for any casualties.
Billy is more like Dimitri.
@@josephdalton6968 "Mikhail doesn't kill his own people" LMAO, the first seconds we see him in the game he literally shot his own soldier in the head for no reason, wym he doesn't kill his own people? 😂
As funny as Faustin is, he is the living embodiment of too far gone with greed. Even his wife says it. “He used to be happy, he used to make me happy”
Mikhail knew Dimitri was turning snake the whole time
"Good lord, what are you doing?" Even Faustin's surprised
I like Nikko's interactions with Mrs. Faustin. You can tell they genuinely respect each other.
"my wife doesn't like when people shout!!!!!!!" XD
KRMA VDMarne whatever you better get those screens soon
Only Niko apologizes about deaths he caused and goes to their funeral lol.
No doubt Dimitri did, even more so. 😂😂
- You. Go and kill this guy.
- Are you sure?
- Sure? No, I'm not. Right now, I'm wondering if it's him or you. You, prove you're loyal. Go, and kill the guy.
- Don't question my loyalty.
- Then don't question my orders!
My favorite moment from video
That’s why Faustin is the best boss
One of the few people to not be intimidated by Niko
Niko: Hello.
Dimitri: -Hello, Ilyena.
Mikhail: *W H A T I S T H A T ?*
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's putrid to his eyes! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Niko baby…
"Wherever you go, people will find you, if they want you badly enough". I dare say this is a nod to Bulgarin appearing very soon after killing Faustin.
I swear I quote Mikhail almost daily, his phrases are so underrated. He's so quotable.
“American greed will take everyone, it’s like a disease”
Perfectly sums up the game (and in part implies Deal being the canon ending)
Also this line is way too much of a truth bomb to be a throw away line in a shooting mission
Why Revenge is canon . Hang out with Kate and Roman notice how he behave's to Roman he make's fun of his cousin, I'm a changed man Niko, who, where is that man, but when you hang out with Kate he show's emotion's I never told Roman what happened to his mother . I told him his mother died in a burning house but she was actually raped and shot to death. There is no doubt in my mind that Niko listen's to Kate in the end as Niko want's to leave the criminal underworld and have a family. Plus Gerald before going to prison say's Pls Niko look after my family .
The deal can’t be canon it doesn’t make sense that’s when Roman dies but in gta 5 it says Roman is alive
Let's take a moment to thank Mikhail Faustin for the 8 Turismos I stole from him.
EVERY TIME
Mikhail is a less angry version of Trevor.
Anderson Sanchez And plus he is Russian
Russian Trevor
TheWankBank I love them.
Mikhail is a more insane, depressed and real version of Trevor.
No. He’s a kinda nice man…
Trevor is definately not. He’s disgusting.
Mikhail is one of my favorite chracaters from the GTA universe. And GTA IV has the best characters overall. I miss this game man.
Gotta love Mikhail. He had some best one-liners in this game.
Such as…
*”My fuc*in wife is watching television!”*
*”My wife doesn’t like when people shout!”*
*”You’re about cuttin some guy in my house, to find out he is his cousin?”*
*”Dimitri will turn on you as well! You should discover this.”*
12:23 😂
15:12 "Yeah, yeah... she's, uh, very lucky to have such a loving father..."
I think Niko just being sarcastic there xD
He's in one room with a drug-fuelled psychopath who has a gun in his hand PLUS he has a bodyguard standing right next to him
I'd say the same thing too.
hey, who do you think is the most protective father, Michael (GTA V) or Mikhail?
Mikhail for sure, Michael seems pretty okay with his daughter being a skank as long as she's not doing it on TV. Trevor is more protective of Michael's daughter than Michael is.
@@erichh1361 the part where u said that abt trevor made me laugh internally. It is true tho. Now that i think of it, mikhail did order niko to kill any man involved with his daughter
I didn't want to kill Mikhail Faustin.
Ilyene and Anna end up in a 1-room apartment, yet after the mission Anna is crying upstairs? Rockstar Logic
El Diablo Baptiste I thought I was the only one who noticed that
Lleyna couldve been outside on the phone talking to niko
Ilyena must be outside on the footpath or something, and upstairs is their apartment.
The rooftop?
Mikhail Faustin is very similar to Marty Williams from GTA VCS :
they are both leaders of a Mob.
They are both Abusive husbands.
They both have one daughter.
And they are both killed by the protagonist during the first act of the game
Unintentionally the most hilarious GTA character ever
Maybe it's the voice or accent? I dunno. XD
@@Flashguy4826 he’s careless with his power he’s hilarious 😂
its his lines and the way he says them lmao
"fuck him and fuck you, who are you my daddy?"
"What are you still doing here? I SAID GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!"
One of my favourite antagonists...
LOL I find that really hilarious LOL
I love his reaction when he sees Niko. Niko bellic! Good name good name. Niko bellic baby good to see you. I hated that you have to kill him
"Don't question my loyalty."...."Then don't question my orders." Was a bomb ass reply...
Mikhail had a very cool voice
Seriously great voice actor. Absolutely killed the anger issue husband role
Basically after the murder of Faustin the storyline weakens for quite a period
but It's still better than GTA V's story.
Nah, i'd say its after Dimitri's betrayal and Niko and Roman were forced into hiding in Bohan
@@r3uvsgaming Yeah. When going to Bohan I'm always like "Oh boy, worst part of the game here" Can't fucking stand Manny either and he's the first mission giver you get.
@@Milkthrow i mean, i think bohan is pretty real in their potrayal of the bronx. Everybody's annoying or crackheads. But i still love it here
@@Milkthrow Credit to the writer's Manny is annoying as fuck. He's a perfect parody of those reformed 'gangstas' you see on TV and UA-cam who've never committed a crime worse than selling a gram of weed, yet will make out like they were running the streets.
10:59
Dont question my loyalty
THEN DONT QUESTION MY ORDERS
1553: Ivan the Terrible
2008: Mikhail the Terrible
455 years away from each other
Both Russians
"SHUT THE FUCK UP! My fucking wife is watching television"
TheDragVeteran This is so funny.
I find myself impersonating him from time to time. such a funny character
Same
@deadlyvexx99 TV Holy shit bro. I say that so many times randomly.
Love when he says shut up
I yell at the shelf boy in the supermarket to get out of my sight
“Niko Bellic baby “😂
He called Niko "baby" 😂😂😂😂
You created another masterpiece of one of the many "gta-Story's". The way you handle the Editor and how you tell the Stories...
In my opinion you are a real artist. Keep doing such a good job, ;)
Hotdog vendor totally ruins the mood and atmosphere at 29:38
+kieron wells LOL true, he also seem to distract Niko xD
My dogs is long and hot
It's compelling, because Faustin could have been a good mentor to Niko. He tries to teach him about loyalty and discipline. He kept Niko alive when he would have killed anyone else out of impulse. I mean, just look at how he killed Andre who he knew for years in a split second and kept Niko around. Faustin could have developed a relationship with Niko had he been spared.
That sucks Nikko was tricked into killing him. Mikhail and Nikko would make a good long lasting friendship since both like working for each other and both are loyal. If it wasn’t for Dimitri, who was a manipulative psychopath who only cared about himself, and would do anything to betray anybody.
Trevor would've loved Faustin
@@longlost247 yes. They are both sociopaths and have a large temper, but at the same time they are both extremely loyal, and they know what respect is.
@@bostonwarrior4824 the two of them should've gotten a scene together, the ballard of the madmen.
I didn't like Mr faustin tbh I didn't like him I didn't like how he came off he was a prick tbh
@@ryanjessen9181 yeah, in the scenes, Niko was in he didn’t seem friendly, because there was issues. Most of the time he was on Coke, so he was all coked out, but also he wasn’t a happy man, as Niko had to do a lot of his jobs and clean up parts of his life, he wasn’t happy about. Although he loved Dimitri, they didn’t see eye to eye anymore and little did he know Dimitri would betray him. I think he was a better character than Dimitri, because he was loyal. He always thought Dimitri was his brother, and you could tell Niko eventually felt bad for killing him, because he got tricked himself. He’s like Trevor he’s got some serious anger issues, as in the first scene, he killed the guy who kidnapped Roman and Niko and then he shot Roman for not being quiet. But like I mentioned, he’s pretty loyal to who he’s with.
18:35
Niko is just the best and knowing from wrong to right, just a good speech
"You've been a bad boy Niko Bellic"
"You've been a bad boy, Mr. Balkan. And the boss is not happy."
@@Flashguy4826 oh no I shit my pants
@@alanmawson2187 "Not yet, but you will. Who are you working for?"
@@Flashguy4826 er my cousin Roman
@@alanmawson2187 "That's not good enough. I'm gonna cut off your fucking arm. Speak!"
"Shut the fuck up! My fucking wife is watching television"
Idk how to explains but this always kills me 😅😅😅😅😅
GTA IV videos making me want to play it again :) Even causal encounters were better than GTA V because they were linked to the story characters.
He brings incredible grit to the story that doesn’t come back for most of it, and the sad realisation of what a mistake it was to kill him for Ratmitri
5:40 I loved when he throws the bottle at Dimitri who is standing right there, and when Faustin yells at him again he supposes that he runs away
14:19
Can't seems to get this scene out of my mind when thinking about gta 4
I think Mikhail is the key character of the game.(and also Roman)
Thanks for the video :D
I agree, happy you enjoyed my video :)
Vlad too, niko was noy going to meet Mikhail if he didn"t killed Vlad.
Lmao the part where Faustin plays with the glock and Niko just watches
0:32-0:54 No one's gonna comment that Mikhail suddenly seems to know Niko and call him by his name? When I played this for the first time I thought maybe they knew each other, like they were comrades in the army or something.
I feel like Mikhail Faustin could be a real walking meme
Fun fact The voice actor who played him also played The lawyer in blade 2
lmao wtf was he doing 14:20-14:24
btw Ilyena's accent is really good
You alright mr faustin?
16:10 - 16:13 that cut is just hilarious
Mikhail trigger word: *calm*
Like Dutch's trigger word was "insist".
*NOT DIMITRI, NO ONE TELLS MEE TOO CAWM!!*
17:32 me when someone makes a shit joke, still i have to laugh
What are the chances I read that at the exact same timeframe it appeared in...
+OfficialGamer5 nice :P
"Niko bellic baby, good to see you"
Faustin: "My wife doesn't like when people shout!"
Also Faustin: *fires two gunshots in the basement*
"SHUT THE FUCK UP, MY WIFE IS WATCHING TELEVISION!"
*literally shoots a gun twice*
I feel sorry for him, Mikhail knew that Dmitry was a traitor, and wanted to warn Niko, one of whose characters I did not want to kill .
I kinda wish Niko didn't kill Faustin. He could have been more interesting in the story or possibly a random encounter
Karel Roden is an amazing actor haha
You reversed the truck into that shop? Nice driving skills! There are many things I didn't watch while playing; for instance, I didn't see the cutscene, where Faustin shot at Roman. It's a shame that Faustin turned into that, I bet he was a good man. Also, it's sad to watch how he treats his wife. :(
Matt Marcelowski True, that is sad :(
Call me mean, but i think his comments are hilarious.
"Superstitious old crone, ill see you in hell"
Idk why, but that one in particular makes me laugh everytime
Iam the only one who thinks that Mikhail is hilarious?
he is funny . Shame he was killed early
Yeah he was fre@king fun russian dude
“Dimitri will turn on you As well!”
8:56 I play this game for 8 years and I only now noticed that that Natasha has Alex's Chilton model.
I cant believe i had to read a comment for me to notice
Karel (Carl) Roden did in my opinion excellent voice acting for this character.
You are the most amazing UA-camr ever. When I am upset I watch your videos and I'm happy again thanks for making these videos and keep up the good work from your number 1 fan!!
Thanks man :D
But I prefer you wouldn't get upset at all
I wish we could've had the option to spare Faustin
RIP Mikhail Faustin 1963-2008. The leader of the Russian mafia in Hove beach .
14:14 Mikhail's ''Gay Moment With a Gun''
Battlefool 000 Imagine if that was a gif...
Niko's face during that is priceless
@@randysalazar4421 Definitely. xD
I wish I could spare Faustin
ye even tho hes clearly lost his mind and abusive, it somehow felt wrong killing him even b4 finding out dimitri is a snake
Fun fact Faustin is based of Tony Montana from scarface we can see that by the scar on his face and the coke addiction also he likes to spend his time at the club
*And also have a tatt on his palm , while Tony had it on the out outer part of his palm,Faustin have it on the inner side*
15:36 I love that hand gesture followed up with, "Kill him." Faustin is mercilessly funny! 😂
