>infiltrates and then instantly backstabs and destroys every gang in the city leaving chaos everywhere this guy is the biggest menace of all the GTA MCs, holy shit, all his missions seem to go the worst possible way too lmao
...
why was he such a kino protagonist
>>731020697.....
Asuka never finding out is the real genius.
>>731020791>gets wet at the thought of beating the shit out of a dying latinx with her caneToo bad she was a rug munching dyke.
So the only person he doesn't fuck over is D-Ice right?
>>731021000She was bi. She wanted to fuck Clyde too
>>731021679And King Courtney, but only because he double crossed Claude first.
>>731017658He's my favorite character
>>731017658How do the mainline gta characters rank on the power level scale? I'd say it goesClaude > CJ > Niko > Tommy > Michael > Trevor > Franklin
>>731017658He just does whatever the person with the most money and power tells him to do.He's a lapdog until the end.
>>731017658And he accomplished it by retardmaxxing, so many coincidences that lead to Catalina

>>731021679He never betrayed 8 ballRay left the city on good terms with claudeHe never screwed Donald Love either, but we never found out what happened to Love>>731022195I'd say (from most to least): Tommy, CJ, Niko, Claude, Trevor, Michael, Toni, Franklin, LuisJohnny and Vic right at the bottom cause they both died
>>731017658https://youtu.be/GcOU-wv-fig
>>731022320he mainly exploits them for profit and then kills them afterwards
>>731017658Yeah, Claude is the ultimate badass.>infiltrates and then instantly backstabs and destroys every gang in the city leaving chaos everywhereWell, he was betrayed three time (by Catalina, Salvatore Leone, King Courtney), so it is understandable that he doesn't trust anyone.
>>731023568He only kills them if someone else with more money and power tells him too.
>canonically lost to CJ in a race>catalina keeps drunk dialing him after they break upClaudebros...
>>731022195Online>CJ>Claude>Jason>Trevor>Tommy>Niko>Luis>Michael>Franklin>LuciaJohnny is bitch made and dead last on any list.
>>731023568> lap dogwrong termhe's a tool
>>731024191>CJBig dick, busta balls>ClaudeBig balls, average dick
>>731024481Claude would fuck up CJ badly
Claude is a weird transitionary result of the arcade money=score just do whatever you're told for more score gameplay of GTA 1+2 carrying over into something with more of a story and characters. The game is trying to tell a story and show characters but doesn't want you to insert into the world as anything more than a free agent able to do what they want it, so here's Claude who doesn't speak and just does what he's told/whatever the mission is without any motivation except getting money/more score, because that's what they expect you want, even though they want you to see their new characters and story too. The result is that Claude seems like a complete psychopath. For Vice City onwards they made actual characters for the playable character(s) who fit directly into the story with motivations. Claude did have some revenge motivation or something too, he was betrayed by someone during a robbery, it's hard to remember which is the exact point it was very vague, as vague as you being the chosen one in a JRPG, otherwise just a blank vessel to explore the world with.
>>731025304>The result is that Claude seems like a complete psychopathWhich is why he is the best protag and GTA3 is the last great GTA.
>>731017658They need to bring Claude back for GTA7. No big story this time just sheer chaos doing dirty work for mobs and gangs in Liberty City or somewhere new this time.
>>731025304The older I become, the more I appreciate such an approach. Detailed protagonists are mostly tiresome or even outright annoying.
>>731017658You forgot the most important part>doesn't even seem to care
>>731020697You have to interpret his actions yourself since he's silent, but in a story-driven game.
>>731025741>>731026089To be sure, I wasn't saying this is a bad thing. It definitely goes a long way towards helping disassociate a fleshed out GTA protagonists character and situation from randomly slaughtering hundreds of people if there is no defined character and you're just an agent of chaos doing whatever for money for people you have no emotional or professional or whatever involvement with.
>gives you shady missions that feel aimless as hell storywise>starts getting schizo>vanishesWtf was his deal?
He's basically a walking Armageddon, at least for organized crime.
>>731026471It's likely he just ate the old gentleman and fucked off just because, like he did in LCS
>>731026471Prions.
>>731026471If he isn't the US president when we return to Liberty I'll be shocked
