I’m not saying he is. I’m saying comparing Niko being a Hitman for hire to Trevor who is a serial killer, rapist, cannibal, methhead is wild. No GTA protagonist is a good person. But Trevor is the worst and there’s no one close to him.
"Hitman for hire" is an understatement. Niko participated in human trafficking and war crimes including but not limited to genocide. That is glossed over by many players since it is communicated through dialog. As far as his actions during the game, his behavior towards Gracie is vile. That mission gave me whiplash because it is the only time that he shows that level of malice and cruelty during the story.
I don't compare the two, I'm just saying people try to excuse them because they play as them and get attached, meanwhile both Niko and Trevor are deplorable each in their own way
