Yeah, Billy wasn't the only character that said it either and in fact, Johnny seems to have realized that by the end of TLAD story, but for some baffling reason, Rockstar decided to completely throw a lot of TLAD's story out the window in GTA V.

@@dominicvega9267 I know right ? Hell it made me hate Trevor too, bcause Johnny was my favourite Protagonist in GTA IV
One thing that marked me during my playthrough is a feeling that Johnny regrets living as he is. That he is a very damaged person. It struck out to me when you save the game. While all the other characters take a nap, Johnny doesn't sleep. He just sits on his bed. The only other protagonist that does that is Arthur Morgan.

Arthur does sleep sometimes but mainly in cutscenes. You’re right about them being broken characters though. Johny Klebitz, Arthur Morgan and Niko Bellic are the most depressing characters in any R* game.

I think Johnny’s conscience haunts him to an extent but I think he enjoyed his life of living as an outlaw up until the events of the game, with the gang falling apart due to Billy and Jim’s deaths. Losing his gang and his two best friends may have done Johnny in. Sadly it is no wonder to me he became an addict; it was to assuage his own guilt and pain.

I noticed the graphics are a bit different IMO. Other than having the grindhouse effect, the saturation is much more muted, making the whole thing greyer and colder. Similarly, I noticed TBOGT has much higher saturation and sharper images, making it the most colorful and crisp from the three.

Radhinka Bagaskara Because it is. One of the Housers (forgot which one) said different tone to suit the overall story arc better: Bright but cold in GTAIV to convey Niko's struggle and hope in foreign world Dark and gritty in TLAD portraying Johnny's rebellious lifestyle and those who actively against it (Billy's posse, Stubbs, Ashley) and what awaits him in GTAV Vibrant and colourful as it follows life of Luis and what shadows lurking beneath all the glam and glitz

I absolutely loved TLAD. I loved that despite the Russians being the main antagonists in GTA IV and its episodes, the main threat was Billy Grey. I thought Billy Grey was a outstanding villain, he was charismatic, sarcastic and just cold. As much as I hated the way Johnny went out in GTA V, I thought it was a realistic conclusion to his character. Billy was right about Johnny, he was soft and his love for Ashley would be his downfall. Him turning into meth was tragic, Johnny was truly Lost and Damned.

It was all just a big middle finger to anyone who liked 4
One thing this dlc did was modify the driving physics a bit, considering you spent a lot of time on a bike. It was easier to handle and you had less chance of losing control when taking tight turns compared to the main games.

TBoGT is much more worth it, so i'd say that you made a good decision. TBoGT is much longer than TLAD and there's more and better things added, so you got much more for the money. That being said, TLAD is also good. So both is obviously ideal.

@@isthatmateo8332 mmh i think that which one is best is up to personal preference. But from an objective perspective i'd say TBoGT is better and more worth it. To begin with, it's much longer than TLaD. The story is also generally better and put more thought into than TLaD. There are more unique things added like: club management, fight club, base jumping, dancing, drinking, golfing, drug wars etc. In TLaD its pretty much repetative gang wars, and that's it. There is also cooler and better weapons added in TBoGT. From my memory there is also much more plotholes and things that make no sense in TLaD, compared to TBoGT. I personally like both of them, but my problem with TLaD is that they dont act like bikers atall. I think I would like TLaD much more if it was accurate to biker culture.
7:30 im just imagining every cut scene where the entire lost gang is riding their bikes and Johhny is behind them in a cab
The new weapons they introduced in TLAD were also really cool!

Johnny had more fun? I actually thought TLAD was darker, focusing ONLY on the seedier side of Liberty City and having less comedic characters. Johnny's also about as miserable as Niko by the end. I mean he's squatting in an abandoned crack dan, still tied to a drugged out Ashley, and his chapter is completely fucked.
I remember playing through this and only using the shotgun as much as possible to fit the whole Bikie vibe. Rate this higher than Gay Tony because the story was more GTA to me. Reminded of SA with family and betrayels.

I loved this game, It was soo lame of whatever R* studio in charge to kill the character in V, soo lame, the scene, the dialogues, the meaning, its was soo useless form to give a fck about lots of fans that loved to play as Johnny and tLatD, that for me, every part of GTA IV its better than V, thanks for the awesome review, your work its awesome i love the channel

I think TLAD has aged well aside the graphics. I love the dark and hardcore feeling to it. GTA 4 was overall one of my favorites. If they had more customization for your cars and clothes, it would've been perfect. Even the online was good. There was no pay to be better, even in free roam. Can't forget no alien weapons haha. I still think they did Johnny wrong. He should've went out with more style and guns blazing.

I couldn't get into this one as much. It was still good, but I thought the map kind of held back the story. It was felt weird being a biker gang in Liberty City. I think a game like this would've made more sense with a map like GTA V's, full of big, empty open road spaces.

Been replaying this lately never gave the story much go as a kid but it’s awesome!
One of the BEST DLC in all GTA games. Really good game to play if you are in MC world.
Yes, Johnny is the slowest protagonist; had a bike accident if i remeber correctly; Niko is in middle, while Louis is of course the fastest, since he is the youngest and has spent time in jail, so he would workout alot. Fun fact: Johnny has red, brown, white and gold wings on his jacket, with a meaning :D
they need a full on biker devoted game with customization and the play style of 5.. would be my favorite gta!!!!
What about Gang Wars? Those followed by Drug Wars were definitely the hardest things to do in the entirety of GTA 4.

It doesn’t really require that much smarts with the money I waste a lot of it at food places constantly and waste a lot of ammo just by traveling off mission and I never run out on mission, I also have never had any trouble with the lack of protection from a bike
Just me or do the bikes control far better than base game?
Waiting for the next video ; )
I just replayed this DLC and I thought it was okay to Decent at Best. Johnny isn’t that compelling of a Protagonist to me and also the Biker theme gets old for me after a few missions. I do like Billy Grey & Stubbs as they are my favorite characters in this DLC but I wish they had a little more on screen time. Which I felt like the newer characters on this DLC are pretty one note. I get that it’s not a full fledged game like the Base game.

I like this game. But the missions are too simplistic. Also, the gang wars suck. In San Andreas you actually gain territory.
