Talk:Tritagonist

Help me add stuff to the page
I don't have much experience creating pages, and I've been wondering if other users would help improve this page.

Please, can someone help? I want this page to be a good one.

To be honest, there is not a lot that can or should be added. We could go down the path of the Deuteragonist page and flesh out each character bio with what is essentially just a copy & paste from their character page and therefore (IMO) just unnecessary duplication. smurfy (coms) 08:32, June 21, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah! Can we do that? Andyxdr (talk) 14:55, June 21, 2015 (UTC)

Little Jacob a tritagonist?
I know this page has stayed the way it is for a very long time but whose decision was it to deem to Jacob a tritagonist? I disagree with the notion that he is. Sure, he tagged along with Niko on a couple of jobs but he wasn't a pivotal character or anything. He didn't have a significant impact on the story. There are plenty of characters who had much more important roles. If it was up to me, I'd change it to Kate McReary. There were many people in Niko's life who tried to get him to reconsider his lifestyle, including his family members and close friends yet it was Kate who finally convinced him to do actually do it. She did what no one else could and got Niko to consider becoming an honest citizen. That's why the last two choices in the game involve her and it breaks Niko to the core if she's killed. She's a central character. And if not her, it should be Packie. The McReary family was very prevalent in the game's story and the dealings of its members were so powerful it was almost like an independent ministory from the game or a sub-section within it all on its own. Niko had much more meaningful interactions with any of the McReary's than he ever did with Jacob. Jacob was only a good friend, Kate was a close friend and potential soulmate, Derrick was like a reflection and Packie was a partner-in-crime. How the hell is it fair that Jacob gets the spot? By definition, a tritagonist is the third most important character in the story. Jacob's story was brief, uneventful and barely had screen time. As such, I don't see how it's more important than the McReary's story who span half the game almost completely took over the plot at one point. The tritagonist should be Kate, not him.
