    Here is a video edit in tribute to one of my favourite characters in videogame history. Niko Bellic's story is so tragic and interesting that I just had to make a video about it. His character alone solidifies GTA IV as my favourite Rockstar game.

      @X_Milky CJ was indeed the first TRULY charismatic character from GTA.
      Almost all the 3D era characters are mostly the player's vehicle to move, but CJ compared with Tommy and Claude was more human and had more natural interactions with his world and story. We love Claude and Tommy for how WE shape them and YOU are the badass, but CJ is loved by how HE IS shaped and we know HE is the badass.
      That's the difference between him and other protagonists. With the HD era R* made a better job in balancing the player and the character role (and that's how we ended with complex characters like Niko or Michael)

CJ did a lot of things such as breaking into Area 69 , killed a lot of people who are his enemies in 4 cities and 3 states , expanded GSF gang territories and owned a lot of things in the end. While Johnny isn't much charismatic nor deadly and he got killed by Trevor in GTA 5. I guess you might be Algonquin Assassin or Ahmedmfroezspeed user from GTAforums webpage , Both of that users frequently underestimate CJ , I've browsed into GTAforums several times in last year , Most users in that webpage kinda fighting each other for their opinion of GTA protagonists but a few people who said CJ is not badass nor charismatic nor strong sound stupid to me according to his feats and bodycount (Although CJ acted soft to Catalina and Tenpenny but he actually has some points to acted soft to both of them while he acted tough to others).

    Niko Bellic is literally my all-time favorite games character. I feel sympathy for him, especially as eastern European. The writing was so damn good and it became even better, knowing that a ever since USSR and Yugoslavia fell, a lot of eastern European nations went into difficult times, making Niko Bellic's depressive life true to a lot of people out here in different forms, not just war. The people in the countries between baltic and black seas fell into deep economical crash because of needing to restart their whole country as a whole machine. As a result the people struggled to put food on the table and mafia became the new police there. You could be shot in the head and nobody would care except for your close people. In the Balkan countries it resulted in bloody war, where entire cities would be could out from resources and such. It was truly dark. And Rockstar did hell of a job by portraying a depressed eastern European war veteran. The way he understands after the war what kind of terrible things he has done by killing innocent children in war so brutally and such and that he is a creature without a soul just hits so deep. I'd take this story over a weird silent guy, Tony Montana copy paste, black gansgter in the hood or a Hollywood style dynamic trio anyday. Those games were good, but many will agree the story of GTA IV was best.

      Yeah its meant to be a mocking tone - a depressing victory. Yeah you "won" but you didn't really. That's how life is. Isolating yourself, cutting off everyone you know, fucking over your friends, selling out, just to get that money and get ahead to "win" but who is left? Nobody. Just you and your money. Then you die alone and bankrupt when that money ruins out because you spent it all on booze and pills or lavish things to counter the crushing depression of isolation until you are left bitter and old with nobody that cares about you and you're nothing but a footnote in the obituary pages....if you get one at all.

    GTA IV, is the magnum opus of Rockstar, nothing will ever top it in terms of writing,storyline and characters. Niko Bellic’s tale of an immigrant, trying to survive in the cold and unforgiving Liberty City, constantly haunted by the ghosts of his past. The American Dream that was promised to him by Roman was just that, a dream, that immigrants from Slavic countries can come to America, and make a life within the land of opportunity. The war ruined Niko, his soul crushed, and ripped out after the things that he witnessed.

    Niko Bellic is a type of dude that you'd really like to have as a bodyguard but hella not as an enemy. Looking from some non related to him person's perspective, Niko is very scary and dangerous hitman. Even Johnny admits that during the Museum fight. Ray was also scared of Niko. It was visible, even though he always tried to act tougher than him. Trevor is also scary, but in some way, sometimes Niko is even scarier than him.

    • @ArthurMorgan-pq4tr
      @ArthurMorgan-pq4tr 3 роки тому +16

      I believe that Niko is scarier because Trevor is a psychopath who is overly emotional and can feel good about things he’s done or feels terrible or both. Niko doesn’t have any emotions after the war. He’s more of a sociopath. He’s seen things happen to a point where he is numb to most death and violence. He’s got no remorse except for the people he holds dear. So if you’re not his inner circle, he’ll kill you and never think twice about it.

He’s delusional to a point where he believes he is the person that he wants to be until he realizes he’s not that person. He’s not nearly as powerful as Niko or Trevor. He’s mainly just a fat middle aged man with an extreme temper. I believe that that’s why he’s not as powerful because if you approached him, he’s completely fine. He can act normal, he can be decent to an extent, but if you aggravate him he will possibly attack. But he’ll attack despite if he can win the fight and being angry only makes him slightly more powerful.

    GTA IV was Rockstar's best storytelling before a certain western series came along. And even now, outside the Red Dead series, it's still stands tall as their best story to date and Rockstar's first foray into genuinely complex, mature storytelling with a layered protagonist in Niko Bellic. And an atmosphere that made you feel like you're the playable character as you traverse the almost suffocating, gray soaked streets of Liberty City.

    I think that the part where niko talks about dead children and women, he is talking about the Bosnian war, in which 8372 women, children, and old people were brutally murdered by the army gang called "Arkan tigers" it doesnt mean that niko was a part of this army gang, he was probably one of the patrol army men that would patrol the city of Srebrenica where that happened, the part where he says he had to swim to survive a ambush is made up by the writers of gta IV's story. I am from Bosnia and this game hit hard for me, i wasnt mad at the Protagonist, or rockstar, because the game mentioned these events, i was happy that a person (Or at least a video game character) saw what was wrong and what was right.

    The story of GTA 4 is so deep. It’s not “some revenge mission,” and it’s not a generic shooter set in a generic city. There is so much character and world building in everything. But it’s slow, not spoon fed. The missions tend to fall into a pattern of “drive here, kill this guy/these guys,” but is that a problem? “None of you will stop me from killing Jimmy P,” he had done everything he could to get buy. The amusing missions of San Andreas don’t fit in with the gritty atmosphere.

      I love this game's story too. Even it's gameplay is good. The map is cool, the rag doll physics, The Swing set of Death, the driving can be annoying but most of the time I like it because it feels satisfying to control, the fighting mechanics, you can hangout with multiple people, and some fun activities. It also has great music. Good loading theme song, good main theme song, and it's in game radio is my favorite. It. Truly is the best GTA. At least for me.

Niko was brilliant protagonist, the friends and allies were someone you could care for too. Even if they did not appear a lot like Mallory. The villains like Dimitri were perfectly made like manipulating you into killing Mikhail Faustin, making you want revenge just like Niko Bellic. This sad story will take a long time to be overtaken by another story, it will take a long time to get a better story. GTA V is good, but it doesn’t go that deep, rather looking like a game made by Hollywood.

    Gta 4 actually is an only gta that has a seriously dark and deep story and because I am from the past yugoslavian countries I can understand him he definitely saw some deep shit in the war and he is lucky it didn't affect him to the point where he was going to end it all

    The darkness and mourning that Niko carries within himself is one of the best aspects of the character that sometimes let himself see through a dialogue or a scene. This character needs to come back, after everything they have learned about narrative with Red Dead Redemption I and II, Niko story could be even greater than what it was in GTA IV
