8 Video Game Sequels That Did Characters Dirty
6. Johnny Klebitz - Grand Theft Auto V
Normally each entry in the Grand theft Auto Franchise nails the playable character. Even Claude in GTA 3! Sure he is a mute and all, but it just works. And ever since then Rockstar have always produced protagonists loved by most. Well, that was until the Lost and The Damned DLC for GTA IV.
But then honestly some people loved the story of Biker Johnny when compared to Niko in the main game.
Now if this were another franchise you’d expect Johnny to get some sort of redemption arc or even be of some significance in GTA V, but nope he’s literally used as a plot device to get Trevor over or hated by the player from the get-go.
Poor Johnny was on a downturn thanks to Ashley and the involvement with crystal meth. And it seemed that this addiction that they both held ultimately lead to his demise, but when is all said and done, the legacy of Johnny Klebitz will be ‘that guy that Trevor curb stopped in GTA V’.
