Are we really coming to the age where there are GTA players that never heard of Niko Bellic? I mean Trevor is an interesting character, CJ is cool and Tommy was a legend. But Niko is something else because of what he been through. If you ever played this game you will get me, real life rarely gives you a good ending like what you see in Hollywood, and his story is just like that. To me, Niko will always have a special place in my heart because of that… you do bad things, and at the end of the story you will face your consequences. His tragedies actually made me think of all the choices I made in life. And as a virtual character that had never existed, he gave me more lesson than some of the teacher I met back when I was young.

Niko Bellic is the only character which needed special character development for Rockstar Games. The voice actor, Micheal Hollick, needed a dialect teacher to teach him how to speak like a Serbian. Also during the voice acting, he was also added for motion capture and other things for the full development of Niko, eventhough Hollick didn't even resemble Niko in any way. He was paid only $100,000 for his voice acting and motion capture work for the game and also the Union didn't give him royalties for the game. He cut ties with Rockstar Games because of that. He was paid $1050 daily during the 15 month development period. Because of that he blamed the union for such bs agreement. He didn't return back to them for the DLC voice acting, instead R* used his prerecorded audio for it. He was still credited in both of the games.

At the time of it Niko would be only 13 years old (since he was born in 1979) Niko also refers to "dodging bombs" in his younger ages, which makes a reference to NATO bombings of Yugoslavia, from which alot of civilians suffered and died Also, Yugoslav army used alot of helicopters in Kosovo, but Army of Republic of Srpska in Bosnia did not, which also implies that Niko was in Kosovo (since he was a helicopter pilot) Niko fought Albanians and Kosovo and that's why Albanian mafia in Liberty City are kinda a personal enemy to him, and that is why he hates them so much

I don't care what anyone says, GTA IV is the best Grand Theft Auto game ever made. Niko Bellic is the most complex protagonist Rockstar has ever created and I would love to see GTAIV get a remaster instead of GTAV. Not by Grove Street Games but by Rockstar themselves. Addendum- This is a very good breakdown of Niko Bellic's character. However, you made one small mistake here when you talked about Niko's father. In order to hear him talk about his father you have to choose to side with Dwayne over Playboy X. After taking out Playboy X you have to agree to hang out with Dwayne quite a bit before they each start talking about their lives as kids. Niko tells him he's not the only one to suffer under an alcoholic abusive father.

Niko is one of the protagonist that feels some sort of remorse when it comes to killing he reveals how messed up it is when he sleeps and how he is sad I hope we get to see niko in gta 6

Just beat this game a few weeks ago and I can confirm it is the best one currently (personal opinion). But just the dark crime story with the bonds of friendship and family, you feel for Niko and Roman as they have been through a rough ride growing up and during the war, both are tired of being oppressed. In a world full of disgusting characters Niko begins to feel resentful for his actions as he menetions in dialogue and he wants to get out of the life of turncoats & backstabbers. Depending on your choices there still is no real definitive right or wrong ending but there lies a tragedy or a consequence in each one. Truly reminds me of a Shakespeare playwright

You feel for Niko at the end, even if Roman is still alive, and you genuinely hope that he finds a better life for himself. I still think he is the best character in the GTA franchise.

GTA4 story is much better than GTA 5

I don't know what it is, but when i hear that his childhood dream was becoming an austronaut, and then remembering what he is now and what he did, this really kinda breaks my heart

Hard ass southern accent 😭anyways good vid

The Yugoslav wars aren't covered much they should tho, these things effect today

Cj:damn my mom died Trevor:the airforce didnt accept me Franklin:repo Michael:bank robbery go brrr Niko:accordian intensifies* *oj alija aljo*

“War is an invention by the old and the bitter, to trick the young and the stupid into killing each other.” I always kill Darko, and get Revenge on Dimitri (both ultra satisfying). I also always take out Playboy X, I like his penthouse.

He's hands down the best character, people praise red dead but Niko is just so full of depth and his story is something I'd love to see tackled or at least adapted to tv or film

Your slight southern twang on the end of ur words crack me up its like a lunch lady is telling me about gta 4 lmfao. Awesome video.

Great video! GTA IV is such a master piece. P.S the black BMW M3 at 11:09 was one of my favorite cars

GTA 4 was the first GTA game that truly excited me, solely because of the physics alone. The gunplay/driving and sense of weight the world had with an awesome euphoria physics engine was just so impressive at the time of release. Niko was a very strong and torn protagonist and the atmosphere was very moody and dark. Although gta5 had better graphics and draw distance, the gunplay and physics felt inferior in gta5 and it took awhile for the disappointment to wear off and fully embrace gta5.

I like to think then Revenge Ending is canon, since Niko still has his family and friends, not to support them, but also to have them support him as well. In that ending, Niko has more hope of living a normal, happier life, becoming a caring uncle for his nephew/niece and keeping himself away from the risks of doing illegal jobs for other scumbags, hence why he “went quiet”.

GTA 4 is just different, i replayed it so many times just for the story, the moments and niko himself are all interesting. Honestly Niko is probably the most well thought, deep gta protagonist for me.

Niko is my favorite GTA main character by a mile. Hell, he’s honestly one of my favorite characters of any game tbh.

I have a theory that Darko's neighbors killed by Goran are Bosniaks killed by Serbs during the Bosnian Wars. It's implied that Niko, Darko, Florian and others are Serbians fighting during the Yugoslav Wars and it happens that Darko's neighbors are Bosniaks and there are stories that both sides committed war crimes.

Excellent video brother. GTA IV has always had a special place in my heart. Best storyline in the GTA series, best characters, best gameplay memories.

In my playthroughs, Dimitri got his head blown off, every single time. It wasn’t until today I learned the alternative storyline. Great video man!

The first 40 seconds are the best quotes in history

"I Killed People,Smuggle People,Sold People ,But Here Things May be Different"

this was an amazing video fr !!

Niko thought Mallorie might be with Vlad and only knew when Roman told him.

"European prison"... I cringe when I hear Americans saying shit like that. The differences between countries here are so big that you could've just said "he was in prison somewhere on planet Earth." XDDD

It’s also really useless in this situation because when Americans say European they are almost always referring to somewhere in Western Europe. If someone is talking about say Poland or the Ukraine they will almost always say Eastern Europe instead of just Europe. I think the reason for that is because Americans have wayyy more ties to Western European European countries than the former eastern bloc for obvious reasons.

"How much do you charge to kill someone?" Man. That probably stuck with niko forever.

Gta IV was such a big change in story line in the gta series. What a great game.

Slavic pride runs deep. You wouldn't understand

Niko Bellic is an absolute legend so is the game than I thought

Niko: I didn't want to go bowling for thousandth time

Damn. What a crazy story about the protagonist of GTA 4, considering that he isn’t your typical GTA protagonist. And well for me, I am still playing GTA 4, and I haven’t beaten the game just yet, and whether or not I beat the game, I’m all good with it either way. But I saw a movie not too long ago that came out this year over a month ago back in May, and even though both the movie and GTA 4 are different stories, I saw a similarity between the 2 main characters of the movie and of GTA 4. And the movie I saw was with an awesome and cool English actor who was born and raised in England, and that actor is best known for his life or death defining character movies, and his name is Jason Statham, and the movie I saw him in was called Wrath Of Man. And well, I was easily able to tell that both the movie and GTA 4 both had similar stories. In GTA 4, we can all figure out how and why Niko Bellic isn’t your typical GTA protagonist, and the movie of Wrath Of Man with Jason Statham is similar to GTA 4’s protagonist Niko Bellic, and well, either if you read the plot or see the movie of Wrath Of Man, you will see and will be able to tell why GTA 4 and Wrath Of Man have similarities, as they’re very similar in their own ways. And in short, I can tell you this. In Wrath Of Man, the main character played by Jason Statham is a father who’s son gets killed in the middle of a planned out heist which was planned out from the beginning and nobody knew how or why it was planned, but you look at Niko Bellic from GTA 4 and are able to tell differences and similarities between both of the protagonists and the main characters of both the movie and of the game. If you guys wanna check out the movie of Wrath Of Man, I highly recommend it, as I thought that it was a good and well done movie. Anyway, as I have said, you look at both of the protagonists and the 2 main characters of GTA 4 and of Wrath Of Man, you will see what I mean that they both have differences and similarities.
