Note del giocatore

Vincente de Santa è un capitano dell'Esercito messicano e vicegovernatore di Nuevo Paraíso, al servizio del colonnello Agustin Allende da Escalera. Nato nel 1877 in una famiglia di militari, viene costretto a studiare inglese per sei anni e da bambino viene picchiato dal padre. In seguito afferma che quelle percosse hanno fatto di lui ciò che è. Nel 1911, de Santa è un ambizioso ufficiale dell'Esercito che tratta Allende con ammirazione e mette in atto la violenza del regime contro civili e ribelli.

John Marston incontra de Santa dopo essere arrivato a Escalera. De Santa gli offre aiuto per trovare Bill Williamson e Javier Escuella, poi manda John a svolgere incarichi per l'Esercito in tutto Nuevo Paraíso. John si unisce a lui in operazioni contro i ribelli, compresi attacchi alle case e il sequestro di donne per i soldati di Allende. De Santa schiera ripetutamente John al fianco di truppe mal preparate contro le forze ribelli e in Mexican Caesar manda lui ed Espinoza in un assalto dal quale non si aspetta che sopravvivano.

De Santa alla fine dice a John che Bill e Javier sono tenuti nella chiesa di Chuparosa. È una trappola: i soldati dell'Esercito fanno perdere conoscenza a John, lo legano e si preparano a giustiziarlo, finché Abraham Reyes e i ribelli non attaccano. De Santa fugge dai combattimenti. Luisa Fortuna manda poi John e i combattenti ribelli a Sepulcro, dove sopraffanno i soldati di de Santa e lo picchiano finché non rivela che Javier si trova a Casa Madrugada. John può uccidere de Santa o lasciarlo ai ribelli, ma Casa Madrugada ospita soltanto un'altra imboscata dell'Esercito. In Undead Nightmare, de Santa risorge dalla sua tomba a Sepulcro e viene eliminato da John.

Curiosità

◆The burgundy color of his shoulder patches signify he is some sort of general staff, meaning de Santa is Allende's in command right hand; implying he his responsible for the administrative, operational and logistical needs of its unit and supports and advises Allende.
◆If the player kills him, he will be counted as a civilian kill.
◆It is possible that de Santa is bisexual. There are scenes hinting at a relationship between him and Quique Montemayor, a waiter. In another cutscene, he is seen caressing a woman.
◆His relationship with the waiter is hinted at in the first cutscene with De Santa, where Quique Montemayor gives John and de Santa a look of longing and desire. In the same scene, as Quique goes to serve de Santa, one of de Santa's guards whispers in another guard's ear and they both laugh, possibly alluding to how obvious de Santa's sexuality is. In another scene, when he is bringing women to Allende with Quique, the two leave with arms around each other. Espinoza also says that he flirts with the bar boy.
◆When you first meet Abraham Reyes, John tells him he is looking for two men, and Reyes replies with, "You have been spending too much time with Captain de Santa." After de Santa's death, Reyes remarks that "a lot of young boys will sleep safe in their beds." This implies that de Santa is a rapist and possibly a pedophile or a pederast as well, though this may be an instance of homophobia on Reyes' behalf.
◆During a mission, Allende calls him a mariconcito in Spanish, which roughly translates into "queer".
◆In a conversation with Victor Melendez, Victor comments about de Santa's cowardice, claiming he'll only attack when a man is on his knees. John comments, "He'll do a lot of things when men are on their knees," further alluding to de Santa being homosexual.
◆He actually has a lazy eye. It is not as noticeable as Eli's, however.
◆If the Undead Nightmare DLC is installed, de Santa's grave is present in Sepulcro.
◆In Undead Nightmare his tombstone reads, "Hombre Tierno, Soldado Feroz", roughly translating into "Tender man, fierce soldier".
◆If the player leaves the rebels to kill de Santa, Victor Melendez will indicate that the rebels would've preferred that John killed de Santa himself. Furthermore, Abraham Reyes will also question why John hadn't killed him when granted the chance.
◆He has the same last name as Michael De Santa, one of the main protagonists of Grand Theft Auto V, another Rockstar game. However, Michael's false surname was chosen by him after making a shady deal with corrupt FIB agent Dave Norton; his real surname being Townley.
◆Vincente de Santa is very similar to Brian Jeremy from Grand Theft Auto: The Lost and Damned:
◆Both of them are extremely loyal to their bosses (De Santa is very loyal to Allende, while Brian is very loyal to Billy Grey).
◆Both of them betray the protagonist in favor of the antagonist despite being constantly belittled by them.
◆Both of them can be killed or spared by the player, but they die anyway.
◆Both of them are mocked by most of their allies.
◆Both of them are possibly homosexuals.
◆When talking about Colonel Allende, his subtitled dialogue appears as "Coronel". This is because in Spanish 'Colonel' is written as 'Coronel'.
