Grand Theft Auto 5 – Filler Missions

gta 5

Grand Theft Auto 5 has cemented itself as one of the most popular games of all time, and for good reason. The wide open playground of Los Santos allows players to carve out their own fun in any way imaginable, but that freedom is directly at odds with the rather awkward design of certain story missions. I’m talking about missions like “Scouting the Port” where you have to meticulously carry crates around the port while disguised as a cargo worker or “Pulling Favors” where you have to tow a car from one place to another. These missions might not stick out all that too much in your first playthrough, but they really start to become a major nuisance on revisits.
