I've been crawling through the missions in SA at what I would have to say is
a leisurely pace. I've only just done "Madd Dogg's rhymes", and I'm about to
do "Burning Desire", and it made me think about CJ's morality.
He's supposed to be a bit of a good guy, and we're supposed to identify with
him because his Mum died, right? From what I've read, I think he goes after
revenge for his Mum's murder later on.
Does that sit awkwardly with anyone else, or is it just me? I mean, I've
just watched CJ stab a load of guards in the neck in order to steal a book
of lyrics from a rap star. The guards were only there doing their job, they
weren't bad guys as such. And then Madd Dogg's manager gets killed by
drowning because he badmouthed the guy who CJ stole the lyrics for? I don't
know about you, but I would probably be badmouthing him as well.
Tommy Vercetti was a bit of a psycho in his backstory, we knew that from the
start. We didn't expect much of him in terms of morality, because we knew he
was amoral. CJ, in contrast, is supposed to be fighting for his family and
friends, but he does a lot of senseless murder along the way, and it doesn't
quite fit in properly to me.
Does anyone else think the same way?
