The Worst Missions in the Grand Theft Auto Series Have a Common Denominator, and I’m Dreading GTA 6’s Version

A GameRant opinion piece argues that helicopter-heavy missions are often the weakest part of Grand Theft Auto.

It points to frustrating examples across the series, including Demolition Man, Learning to Fly, Up, Up, and Away!, and Paper Trail.

The article says GTA 6 could either fix this long-running mission-design issue or repeat it.

That makes mission quality, especially vehicle-based gameplay, a key fan expectation for Rockstar Games' next release.
