I feel like he was a character they initially had a lot of planned interactions with. When you look at some of these huge block buster games they end up scrapping half the material to focus on what makes the final cut
For real. When I was first playing through GTA V, I completely forgot Stretch as a character until the very end when you kill him. He’s only ever in missions at the very beginning and isn’t seen until the very end.
Yeap, all bout how Franklin owns him money for the Pyramid Shceme, I mean, Gang. So I'm pretty sure the devs had to cut a lot of his content and ideas to make the final version of the game.
Should have more roles though making him a big scary OG sending hitmen gangsters against Franklin and Lamar. He's an OG after all making him look like an actual threat.
Like maybe having a Madrazo Effect to Michael and Trevor. Only Franklin would not be able to travel around Davis area or else endless gangsters will attack him.
terribly underdeveloped even more than weston
shows up in...1 mission? then you get the hidden phonecalls after "Hood Safari" and "Lamar Down" his betrayal was so obvious
Dude shows up two missions and then He is one of the 3 big baddies at the end of the game. I wonder if Lamar voice actor getting in trouble had something to do with him not appearing that much in the game
Yeah, he's what happens when you 'stretch' a 69 mission game over 3 characters. Every antagonist in V was extremely forgettable, but especially this one.
I guess they wanted a kind of parallel to Big Smoke for Franklin, but we see Stretch for 5 minutes and immediately know he's an antagonist. It's like if B-Dup was a main villain in San Andreas, lol.
I feel like rockstar had a lot of things planned for this character but for reasons unknown, things got cut out. Maybe it was gonna be another Ryder situation? 🤔 🤷
He needed something that made him feel like he did something. He was a NPC in one level where he was a whiny bitch, and after that you have some optional phone calls and one cutscene. He feels like more of a plot device that gets bumped off in ending C for some reason rather than an actual character. It's like swatting at a pest rather than disposing of a legitimate threat.
My problems with him are the same with a lot of GTA 5’s antagonists. He had too little screen time, as you only see him in the Long Stretch than just hear him mention cause a lot of shit only to kill him in the last mission.
Nah, Micah has way more depth because we grow to hate him by watching him make dumb decisions, act like a dick around camp, and eventually cause the downfall of the gang by manipulating Dutch into trusting his every word.
Stretch is a dollar store Big Smoke who has 5 minutes max of screen time.
He is a perfect example of a old head who never made it in his time so he eats off the young Gs plate that man was 19 during the events of GTA SA let that sink in and that shows how much of a deadbeat this guy really was he's 5 years younger than cj and most likely one of the first cgf members which might of been created after cj departed after all chamberlain hills in San Andreas seems to be on the ballas territory and in the end is most likely taken over in the territory wars fought by cj in 92 after gsf influence disappeared gangs most likely took certain territories back or took new territories and with Grove Street abndonded which was the stronghold the new green territories on the other side of the hood probably became the new stronghold with ballas taken Grove Street and building their influence on that side which is why Yu see the switch of hoods in GTA 5 that's my thoughts on stretch and my theory on how the gangs transformed to the new era
He does have one interaction with Franklin that makes me laugh like I’m in grade school again:
“I’m more of a hidin’ in plain sight type of n****.”
“No, you more of a punk ass bitch type n****.”
Extremely forgettable

After certain missions theres unique dialogue IF you call him but who tf would randomly call stretch lmao
Yeap, all bout how Franklin owns him money for the Pyramid Shceme, I mean, Gang. So I'm pretty sure the devs had to cut a lot of his content and ideas to make the final version of the game.
Exactly. Who? Finished all the story missions. Don't recall this guy.
awrite, awrite! keep thinkin that, you just keep thinkin that!

Ryder from Wish
Ryder! YOU SHERM HEAD!!

Off brand Big smoke/ryder
Not even. He's that bad.
The should’ve put one of the original in it , I would’ve respected Ryder a lot more then this excuse
Ryder dead bro
And Big Smoke
And Stretch too 😂
Ryder faked his death. 😂
He's really not that important.
Punk ass mark
He’s a complete Pu$$y
Unlike Franklin and Lamar in the near future, Stretch ain't shit...the audacity to call himself after a limo
I feel like he originally had a larger part & a lot of it was cut out. Going after him at the end felt somewhat random for his 2 whole appearances lol
He’s such a forgettable character during the first ever play through.
He’s so forgettable most people don’t even know he’s actually voiced by wee-bey from the wire lol
Baby back bitch
He definitely got hit up inside
fact
He thinks he's better and smarter than Franklin and Lamar because he's a CGF OG. Instead, he's arrogant, Impulsive and he's irrelevant.
A so called “big homie” who’s nothing but a goddamn liability tbh
Old. Bitch.
Stretch mark ass
terribly underdeveloped even more than weston shows up in...1 mission? then you get the hidden phonecalls after "Hood Safari" and "Lamar Down" his betrayal was so obvious
Had it coming
He a straight busta
He's a busta

Playing San Andreas right now, your comment is spot on. Or it’s like giving the guy in the pizza place who shoots at Ryder a major role
The whole games story was forgettable
Haines and Devin weren’t forgettable
Who?
I feel im very feel. 👍
God Damn Baby G
I feel like rockstar had a lot of things planned for this character but for reasons unknown, things got cut out. Maybe it was gonna be another Ryder situation? 🤔 🤷
![gif](giphy|cRNbYm7jLOjm9H8wcP)
He’s a nobody who only care about Eliminating Lamar
Lame ass mark
He definitely got hit up inside
bark ass musta
Flew a hydra to blow his azz up at the end
"Wanna hear a joke?" "Sure" "Enough screentime to make you an amazing villain" "I don't get it" "Exactly"

Fool deserved what he got.
Definitely got hit up

Stretch Mark ass bitch
mark ass bitch
Just another loud-mouthed asshole character that thought he could betray me. Vengeance was little more than a few systematic trigger pulls.
I should've killed that bitch much earlier.
Busta
dead
He ain't my pal man, he just a dude who janked us homie
Buster
Busta
Unremarkable
Annoying mf
Wasted potential tbh
A snake 🐍
*Yee Yee* ass
literally who?
Man tha mf was a b yk how many times I nearly died in tha one mission
Okay lah
Stretchy
We needed more ballas, famalies, gang beef for franklins story imo
I think his part was mostly cut because we fucking kill him in the end so it means that we should feel something lol
Meh
Comedy beyond tragedy
We really at the bottom of the Barrel huh
Snitch ass bitch
Ok
Stretchy
A man who proved how much of a mark Franklin was. You gotta respect the OG's
Forgettable
Haven’t thought about his ass in years
![gif](giphy|AKeLMTSRVuPKJjyZCK)
Buster.
He looks a little stretchy
He be doin his time lookin at sweet boy balls
nice car but it can get stuck easily
Who?
Didn't trust him the moment i met him. Basically the twist that he betrays you wasn't that much of a twist.
He's a hook ass *****
The GTAV Micah
Nah, Micah has way more depth because we grow to hate him by watching him make dumb decisions, act like a dick around camp, and eventually cause the downfall of the gang by manipulating Dutch into trusting his every word. Stretch is a dollar store Big Smoke who has 5 minutes max of screen time.
Micah was billion times better as villain though
He’s a traitor, doing deals with the Balla’s.
It's a bit of a Stretch to call him a nice man
ryder and big smoke in a nutshell
He stretched out his luck
Ol’ MARK
Bitch ass mark Is what he is
Strechdizass
too stretchy
Idk who the fuck he is but what are those fake chains
ryder 2.0
Stretch is Wack
He is a perfect example of a old head who never made it in his time so he eats off the young Gs plate that man was 19 during the events of GTA SA let that sink in and that shows how much of a deadbeat this guy really was he's 5 years younger than cj and most likely one of the first cgf members which might of been created after cj departed after all chamberlain hills in San Andreas seems to be on the ballas territory and in the end is most likely taken over in the territory wars fought by cj in 92 after gsf influence disappeared gangs most likely took certain territories back or took new territories and with Grove Street abndonded which was the stronghold the new green territories on the other side of the hood probably became the new stronghold with ballas taken Grove Street and building their influence on that side which is why Yu see the switch of hoods in GTA 5 that's my thoughts on stretch and my theory on how the gangs transformed to the new era
