He wanted to do something good to the Liberty City even as a crooked damn cop. Derrick was snitching on everyone. He would've told all secrets and crimes of his brothers including his own. Which was a problem to Francis. If his crimes comes out, he would be kicked out of the Police Department just like Ken Rosenberg was kicked out as Lawyer after the government found out he had a connection with godfather Tommy Vercetti.
      I think Gerry went to prison cuz of Derrick. Derrick's journalist came and Gerry's crimes were told. That's why the police arrested him for those evil crimes.

Packie would've been in jail long time without bails and releases if his brother wasn't a cop. I'm not defending Francis I'm just looking at it from a different perspective.

    I mean, I like Francis more than Derrick, man. Derrick ratted his friends in the past. He ratted one of his fellow members and at the end, got him killed. That old man was innocent but got killed. Derrick is a drunk bastard!!! Derrick would definitely betray you in a team mission where you have to steal something precious.
    He would definitely escape with the good when he will get the chance, leave behind his fellow members ambushed, arrested by cops while he escapes with the money. Then, puting the fellow people out of their misery because they want revenge for ratting them out.
    Francis is no good either. He is a very smart, intelligent and corrupted cop. But Francis never lied about the info about the gangsters he told Niko to assassinate. Francis was targeted by gangsters and blackmailed. He couldn't do it by himself because he would be straight off killed by those gangsters. So, he wanted someone like Niko to do his job. In a mission, Francis tells us to kill a kid gangsta. The kid seems innocent and when we save him. He comes back as a random character and tries to kill us. But Niko puts him out of his misery. Francis phoned us in that same mission and informed us that that gangsta kid will definitely lie to save himself. But he would eventually come back for his revenge. Sadly, the kid's plan didn't work out. He finally died. His fate was in the hands of Niko Bellic and it was death written on it. Francis is a corrupted bastard cop but he never ratted us out. He threatened us like he would put Niko down if he doesn't kill Derrick in that 50/50 mission.
    Also, Derrick definitely chose the wrong choice. Why would he call a Journalist to interview his family? His family is a crime family. If the secrets come out, all of them will be arrested. Packie would be arrested, Gerald and Francis too. Derrick was gonna tell all the secrets of his brothers to the Journalist. He would've revealed his crimes, Packie's crimes, Gerald's crimes and ruin Francis's police job if he spells out his crimes. Francis talked with Derrick about this but he didn't listen. Derrick didn't stop. He was ready to tell everything and Francis wouldn't have gotten his promotion. He is a corrupted bastard but I think he would done more good in Liberty City if he stays alive. A corrupted cop can take down corrupted gangsters by using a dangerous killer. The only innocent members of the Mcreary family are Kate and her mom.

    Yknow, even as a drug-riddled wreck with both past and present demons haunting him, Derrick still managed to have more integrity and care more about people (especially during the heist-scene where he's concerned about the victims) than mr. Slimeball Francis here.
    The only one of his brothers who's on the "side" of the law, yet almost manages to have a worse moral compass than them.
    And he always tries to convince Niko that "he's a good guy, he's the good one, he just makes mistakes (time and time again)", moreso trying to convince himself.
    Great character and dynamic, really. Makes the choice very ambiguous.

      whatever57010 If Francis dies, and Derrick dies too, because Packie said that in GTA V Paleto score heist, than everyone is dead, Even Kate (if you took revenge) So if anyone remembers the Mcreary families Mom, that old woman that appeared sometimes, she could be living all alone thinking about it, LOL. Or she died, and Packie is the only surviving member of the Mcreary family.

      Felipe Galli Yeah but Gerry is in Prison his whole life (Not exactly, but he will proabably die in prison too, if not, has already died, - Alot of creepy bastards in prison could have killed him lol) but in my opinion, Packie is canon to live and be on does heists.

      Wiizardii I didn't get your point. who are you referring to by "everyone is dead"?
      Derrick and Francis are dead (since you can kill them both, and according to Packie in Gta V).
      Gerry is either alive in prison or died there.
      Kate is dead or alive (Kate dumps Niko) but vill not appear again.
      The mother is either alive and very old or dead.
      Packie is still alive and appears in Gta V... and since you can kill him he will not appear in Gta VI

    Francis McReary is a scumbag, but to his credit he never betrays or backstabs Niko and was a man of his word, and helped him. He gives him cash, a car, and probably helped Niko stay out of trouble with the LCPD. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if Francis kept helping Niko after the story. Easy choice to spare him.

      Beginning of Blood Brothers cutscene: Francis threatened him though when Niko didn't want to kill Derrick.
      "Do it, or I'll put you away."
      "Don't forget I have dirt on you."
      He wants his own brother dead and doesn't feel any guilt.

      If you spare Francis he will send you an e-mail with an easy-to-access link to the LCPD database with "Those Who Have Strayed From The Path" as a subject line. I feel like this e-mail is the perfect lead-in to the Most Wanted missions and the Vigilante missions. Francis is a hypocrite. But I think he genuinely believes in his "one percent at a time" philosophy of crime fighting. And I think he sends Nico the list, in the hopes that he will use it to wipe out the city's worst criminals. So to the people who don't like Francis, don't do the Most Wanted missions or the Vigilante missions. If you do them, you're essentially executing and enforcing Frankie's "one percent at a time" street justice philosophy. And to those that do like Francis, have fun doing those missions, knowing that you're making Frankie smile from the sidelines.

    • @Charlisimo123
      @Charlisimo123 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      The only reason Francis doesn’t backstab Niko is that Niko is a man with nothing to lose with dirt on Francis. Niko might go down if Francis goes after him, but Francis career as a cop would be done so as soonest Niko starts blabbing about Francis corrupt deeds. Basically Francis has more to lose than Niko does. Which is why he doesn’t want to go against Gerry either. ‘Cause like Niko, Gerry knows Francis very well.

    25:12 this is why I kill francis every single playthrough without hesitation or thought. He simply cannot be trusted. With all the people he's "silenced".he cannot be trusted as an ally. Just how long would it be before he pays another assassin to kill Niko because of what he knows??? That's why I never let Francis see another day. Troy from saints row was a dirty cop but he was loyal to those loyal to him and ultimately wanted to do the right thing on both fronts. Francis is just a puppeteer and hypocrite

    It's been discussed dozens of times, but here are MY reasons to kill Francis instead of Derrick:
    1) Francis constantly threatened and blackmailed Nicko, while Derrick treated him with respect.
    2) It seemed like their family would miss Derrick more.
    3) When these two said, that they are not saint, Derrick seemed to be more sincere and repentant.
    4) One crooked cop seemed to be worse for a society, than one junky crook. Especially if Francis would have become a commissioner.

    Francis was one of the best characters in GTA 4 in my opinion, a terrible guy, hypocritical and just plain bad. Worst than many of the gangsters to be honest as he hides behind the fact that hes a cop, like Packie says he doesnt even realise how much of a crook he is, he is blinded by his own hero complex. GTA 4 had some great villains, very memorable, Dimitri Rascalov was the most memorable in my opinion, you couldnt wait to kill him. Francis is also memorable as are the likes of Ray Boccino and Jimmy Pegorino. GTA 5's villains were poor compared to GTA 4, the likes of Devin Weston or whatever he was called is very unmemorable in my opinion
