Mikhail Faustin: Did he always want out?

Mikhail Faustin used to be respected. Some even feared him. But by the time Niko Bellic crosses his path in Grand Theft Auto IV, he’s already a man losing control of everything. This video takes a closer look at who Faustin is when Niko enters the picture. His inability to control his temper and how it was well within his ability to regain control of, at the very least, his business and launch it to new heights if he wanted to. But did he? Its hard to say definitively as there is no real indicators he did. Nor is there anything that says he wanted to continue living. In fact I'd argue there is more evidence Mikhail Faustin was willing to hang it all up. We’ll explore his relationship with Dimitri Rascalov, the decisions that sealed his fate, and what it means when someone stops fighting long before the end ever comes. If you care about deep character stories, emotional breakdowns, and the darker side of GTA 4’s world, this one’s worth your time.
