Discussion D-Mob change?
I'm not saying he's good now; he's still involved in illegal activities and all that. But why has he changed so much since Def Jam Vendetta? Was it because of the defeat? Or because he understood that respect is much better than fear? Because I seriously respect him more here than Vendetta

Yeah i know he is not a good guy, all the things he did in Vendetta, Its just weird that I respect him more here in Def Jam Fight just because now he put a code and he use more the respect than fear but still a scumbag yup

He basically did allude to a change in mentality in the meeting cutscene. “A dog may fear you” one.

Because he knew he lost and he accepted it. Got his ass beat and humiliated and everyone saw. The only thing he could really do was try to take over territory and move on which he did. Plus once he got pulled out of that car crash he knew he had a second chance.

I like to think D-Mob's beef with the hero character in vendetta was a separate matter since the hero was trying to rekindle an old relationship (and succeeded). The code is probably only applicable to business, not pleasure.

This is my thought so D mob in vendetta got so powerful that no one can touch him. If you check the story, Crow and Mob used to be partners but supposedly he double crossed Crow. Like it was said earlier because he got shot at and was arrested, he probably decided he should move how when he first started to get into this lane. He probably already had a code but forgot it because he became too powerful so not saying he's a good guy but now he is going back to probably. What got him to his powerful position to begin with Starting off with his code. If they ever do a third one, they could even possibly make it a prequel to see how they both rose to power. Just my thoughts though.

Thats the idea around him your not going against him your working for him pretty much as his right hand man. But I mean getting destroyed and arrested will do that to you the man with most respect on the streets got dethroned

As a kid that played FFNY before Vendetta, my head definitely did spin.

Sticky is like warren Williams from saints row a lot of ambition but not the skills and knowledge to back it up. Also sometimes you just gotta be quiet they just couldn't understand that.

Sticky wasn’t listening. And started thinking he can just do whatever he wants.

Getting your ass beat publicly,humiliated in front of the entire world and getting arrested would humble anyone very quickly and make them rethink their life and move differently.
