Open-World Games With The Best Side Quests Ranked

Back to the gritty life of Liberty City on Grand Theft Auto IV , user play as Niko Bellic, a former Eastern European war veteran. He gets involved in the criminal world of the city while chasing the American Dream and hunting the man who betrayed him 15 years prior to the g


Set in 1998, Liberty City Stories is actually the prequel to Grand Theft Auto III . It still surrounds the theme of Italian-American mafia and follows the story of Toni Cipriani, a former mobster, as he makes his return to the City's crime sc


After finding all the pieces, the player must go to El Matadora and give the pieces to the treasure hunter. This will have the player follow the hunter into a cave, where they find a box. As it turns out, the box is empty and there is no treasure to be found. It's a shame, but the fact that the quest is pretty hilarious in its own right makes this lack of a reward slightly better. It's a classic Rockstar moment that shows that the developer won't shy away from taking the mickey out of everything and everyone possible, including the player themsel


After bringing these flowers back to Billy, John will be invited inside to meet the wife. Things take a turn, as the player discovers the wife is dead and her decomposing remains are sitting in a chair. It's a truly unsettling ending that shows just how depraved certain residents in the world of Red Dead Redemption are and adds another rich layer to this tantalizing world that Rockstar has meticulously crafted. Out of all the Stranger Missions in RDR1 , this has one of the most memorable conclusi


From here players can invite whoever they wish to their little group and decide if they want to be a group of good or bad guys. The thing to keep in mind though is that in order to gain access to all the customization features like a bigger camp and a name will mean that the player has to spend about $200 dollars in order to complete it. This may sound like a lot of money, but it is definitely worth it in order to keep this group of players together even when logging off at the end of a session. Players can always ask their group to pay them in pelts or other high valued items in order to front the cost of the posse. Either way, it is well worth the mo


Born in 1877, Abigail Roberts turned into a prostitute before joining the gang. Back in days, she grew up as an orphan, or rdr2 Bloodhound according to Rockstar's official description, 'Scraping out a living in dive bars and brothels in the West.' Maybe that's why she felt connected to John, the most above all the rest of the memb


In this mission, John gets involved with politics. The mission starts at the gazebo in Blackwater Plaza, where John speaks to a blackmailer. The blackmailer says there is a man who is speaking out against the governor, who is trying to get reelected. John is tasked with convincing the gossiper to not talk about the governor anym

This is achieved by showing certain pictures of the gossiper. Interestingly, players can check the photos before handing them over, showing the gossiper performing scandalous acts with a prostitute. The gossiper agrees to cease talking about the governor, successfully being blackmailed. It's a simple yet fun mission that gives players a look at the twisted politics of Red Dead Redemption and how the people in power will do everything possible to maintain this hold. It's a familiar theme that Red Dead Redemption 2 players have witnessed firsthand over the course of this sequel's narrat


Unlike previous GTA games, GTA V lets players control three protagonists: Michael, Franklin, and Trevor, as they're trying to make one big final score while being pressured by the authorities before retiring from the crime scene. Hopefully, GTA VI will eventually release and surpass its predecessor, especially since it should have access to the robust PS5 and Xbox Series X syst


Sometimes joining a random posse just doesn't feel right, and players would rather start their own group. To do this players will just need to hit left on the D-Pad again and scroll back over to the Posse tab in the menu. Instead of picking a Posse from the menu, players can instead choose to create their


There are a lot of reasons why players should join up with a posse as soon as possible, but the biggest reason is that it makes players less of a target. While roaming the game world, players are likely to run into all kinds of dangerous enemies from wild animals to evil factions of players. These enemies are much less likely to mess with a group of players than a single loan cowboy riding by himself. Posses give players a chance to explore the world with a group of people that will have their back and ensure no one messed with them. This also goes both ways though. If players want to be a mean group of outlaws, it is a lot more intimidating to have a group of people at your back. No one is going to take a bandit seriously unless he has some kind of bac
