I don't know if it's intentional, but Niko seems really awkward at the start of this scene, like he's not at all used to kindness and good manners coming from Faustin's wife. I think that's honestly beautiful and kind of sad

I just noticed how Nico always is on alert. For example, before he entered the house he looked around, searching for enemies. The same when he entered the living room; looking around for ambushes or dangers in general. Small little details, which is why I loved GTA IV. The story was so dark and realistic.

GTA IV so far has the best and the most complicated story ever, Niko Bellic has the most complex personality a GTA character ever had, he's one of those soldiers who forced by orders or by their own frustration committed genocide against the innocent and now they're self loathing and have troubled consciences. Even if he's a war criminal, I still feel bad for the things that have happened to him even tho he's just a bloody video game character.

And almost immediately opens up to them, which is actually heartbreaking. If he'd only had one or two people that showed him some kindness and support he might've healed. Instead he got war, genocide, the underworld and generally the absolute worst humanity had to offer. And he adapted to it as he pretty much had to.
Love this scene. Niko was able to bond with Ms. Faustin due to a shared attachment to their past. However, their attachments are completely opposite in nature. Ms. Faustin fondly remembers the happy times that she and Mikhail had together, where as to Niko, the past is a horrific abyss that he tries so hard to runaway from, yet no matter how hard he tries, the past sucks him back in.

PickledPopo Niko Bellic was polled as the least popular of all GTA main character, considered, “too boring.” Both Niko and GTA IV are my favorite GTA characters and games. Niko is so dark, raw and unrelenting. A good depiction of a hardened killer and criminal, with just a bit of melodrama thrown into his character to spice him up and make him entertaining. GTA IV had my favorite storyline as well. Very hard-hitting, personal and dark. Fun and intriguing with great characters. Much more toned-down and realistic than other GTAs so I could connect better and I loved the realistic driving mexhanics as well. GTA V went back to being over the top, with the freedom, engagement and massive content of the former GTA game set in SA. But that dark, gritty, criminal underworld vibe was lost again. It went from being a memoir to a fiction again. Rockstar needs to make two GTA series. One, more over the top and whacky, like GTA V and GTA: SA. And the other, more gritty and real, like GTA IV and GTA: VC.

You could argue about Franklin, but the more goofy narrative of GTA V is more at fault here then Franklin as a character. Niko is a soldier, he fought in a war, for me he is the only gta character, where his actions, accomplishments seem believable to me.
Niko’s story made me want to research about the history of the Balkans and since I have some heritage from the Balkans I was intrigued about learning the history but what I learned is that the history of the Balkans is hardship, brutality and war. Which is why I live in The United States and not in the Balkans. The cultures there are interesting though.

The only reason why doctors call it a disease is to get money from medicines patients buy. However, I agree it is very serious and should not be taken lightly as this happens to most people.

If gta 5 were exactly like gta 4, people would still complain that they copied gta 4 again I think it's quite nice that each gta is so different and unique from each other that they always bring somehing freshl to the table, giving each of them an identity of their own. You should learn to appreciate all of them as they all are masterpieces in their own way.

I am Croatian so it's kind of funny bc I can understand him and others when they speak Serbain since Serbian and Croatian are similar and seeing a character from Balkan in a popular thing like GTA is both amazing and rare

Boy this aged poorly
This is my favorite cutscene in the whole game.
1:55 I like how the camera is panning out like it's revealing something. It still keeps the 'who did it' a mystery and makes it seem like Niko is feeling uneasy saying that and makes you question whether or not is he talking in metaphors.

He is clearly talking in metaphors because he regrets that. Ilyena asked him about his conscience
0:54 The smell of niko's home
I love the writing of Niko's character, because we see so many layers of his character through different people, the other characters act like a filter for him. I think he's the most honest, polite and kind version of himself around Ilyena, he still feels like a shy little kid who's trying to grow into an upstanding and good person. "Please, Thank you, Should I wait outside?" Spoken softly, and then when he gets to talk to Mikhail, he puts up that veneer of cold distance. I feel that, between his dialogue and his emails with his mom and about his parents, those two might remind him a little too much of home.
2022 this makes more and more sense.

GTA V is a shallow game with no substance beyond graphics.
Niko Bellic has the best character development in the GTA franchise. He starts off as a violent kid soldier who was taught how to shoot guns in the Military and Navy. Once he arrived to Liberty, he becomes nihilistic and on a search for guidance and hope. This video game storyline is way better than heaps of movies in Hollywood.
Niko's life is even more depressing than mine
I was 9 in 2008 this was groundbreaking. This was a gem we wont find again.
1:57 that’s some of the best writing I’ve ever seen. You can truly paint that scene in your head and it’s terrifying what humans can be capable of. It’s a shame rockstar and Michael Hollick couldn’t see eye to eye about pay. Niko is truly one of the best characters rockstar ever created.
You can get here by searching "that one niko bellic scene"
A man so scarred he isn't use to love or compassion
For those wondering, Niko is referring to the Bosnia War that took place between 1992 and 1995. Now you can correct me if I’m wrong on some parts. The war was a result or part of the breakup of the country of Yugoslavia, who’s country was and I quote “subdivided along ethnic lines into six republics and forcibly held together by Tito under communist rule. But when Tito died and communism fell, those republics pulled apart.”. As a result and I quote again “Its constituent republics declared independence due to unresolved tensions between ethnic minorities in the new countries, which fueled the wars.”. Essentially these republics were fighting to establish their own countries no matter the cost. Bosnia was just another part of this break up and war in which, and I quote again “Following Bosnia and Herzegovina's declaration of independence which gained international recognition, the Bosnian Serbs and the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA), mobilized their forces inside Bosnia and Herzegovina in order to secure ethnic Serb territory, then war soon spread across the country”. So in short, and you can correct me if I’m wrong, the Bosnia War was a conflict to ethnically cleanse Bosnian Territory and much more in which many war crimes were committed including rape, ethnic cleansing as aforementioned, genocide, and reconciliation

you wanna actually learn something about that war? watch "the weight of chains" by boris malagurski. It was a series of wars started by fucking idiots, who ruined a good country all over nationalistic bullshit. Yugoslavia wasn't communist, I don't know why our own people have the notion it was communist. It was communist for like 5 years after ww2 only. The country was a liberal open market socialist federation. A communist country wouldn't have an open market with business owners and market share for the public, would it?

0:53 first time i see niko smiling 🥲
Never made me think it's a game played for Nikko and his emotions😔
There is nothing psychopathic about niko in this scene. He is a sad and broken, honest man. Being a hired gun is just the only thing the world taught him from a young age. He could have been a dentist, football player, or artist. He is so polite to nice and honest people, but a terror to the monsters. When you grow up, you realize everyone has history, and not everyone wants just to spill it out. Edit: And of course, yes, sure he does very bad things to sometimes innocent people but then again remember. In war the word innocent translates to collateral. Growing up this way he never had a chance to be stable.

Niko's story is a perfect explanation of why he's such a complicated character. He doesn't believe in the human soul, that's why he's so good at commiting violence, but he is still able to be kind and caring despite that ideology
I felt so sad for Mrs.Faustin. She didn't deserve the treatment that Mikhail gave her. When he died, she felt calm 🥺😔

This scene always makes me think the entire plot of GTA IV is some kind of "Ghost of Christmas Past" Story where everybody is talking about Niko in the third person without Niko ever realising
Imagine if Rockstar did a war game. They managed to tell a good backstory from LA Noire with Cole Phelps and an interesting backstory with Niko.
They should make a movie about Niko's entire backstory

So, I'm 26, just finished gta4 for the first time. And WOW. I played gta5 before this and loved the story but gta4 just hits different. The color pallet, how people talk to you. How the cars feel, how the animations feel, how the world feels. It's dark and bleak with moments of happiness and sunshine. That's how I want GTA VI to be.

i don't know what it is but when dimintri and mikhial enter the room its like the tone completely changes
We all see how Niko shows the humanity he had to repress during the war yes, but also notice how Faustin, on top of being angry and self loathing is also tired of being on such a state all the time, deep down he knows it's not good for him nor anyone around him, but it's much harder for him to go back from that, it shows on how he dismisses Niko and then buries his head on his arms in hope to get some peace and quiet, which he doesn't
