That fatso could have joined in CJ building his empire, but he sold out for hamberders.
A lot of Sweet’s characterisation is based around the idea that the hood is where he was born and raised, it’s where everyone he knows has always been. He feels he owes a permanent debt to the hood. Through gang warfare he has lost at least two family members and likely more friends. It’s like a duty to him to ensure that those who are under his leadership are taken care of and protected.
Anyone who has played the game, though, understand that literally none of that happens, and that’s down to his own incompetence. He’s not a natural leader and totally out of his depth in trying to be one. As such, he has no real solutions and the Grove tears itself apart as more families see through his incompetency.
His intentions are absolutely noble, but his actions are fucking useless.
Sweet is what you call a uh, a sucka.
He’s a true believer, a fool, who is dedicated to a whole bunch of rhetoric that objectively is not true, does not function in reality the way he believes it should.
He should know that literally nobody else goes by his code of conduct and honor anywhere near as strictly as he does, because he has repeated, first hand experience with that, but he doesn’t learn, because he is so broken as a person from all the horrible shit that has happened to people he genuinely cares about, that this code is really all that remains as the basis of his identity.
He is a broken, angry, incompetent man who was sold a lie, and that lie is all he has left.
He is a tragic character, traumatized as fuck.
And by GTA V The Grove was taken over by ballers :(
I know SD and HD are separate universes… but it would make sense that no matter what GSF gets pushed out
Likewise, it fits well as GTA storylines never really have a happy ending
no wonder ryder and big smoke left his sorry ass to go make some real fucking paper.
