      I would buy from Origin if they accepted payment methods other than PayPal and Credit cards. Both methods are not popular in my country. Nobody uses credit card here because you need to pay certain amounts to the bank every month. Debit cards ended up being more popular here because of their wide domestic uses.

      R* don't really like PC players because they steal and mod their games. It literally says in the end-user license agreement that we are not permitted to modity the content. Ever since the hot coffee scandal R* don't prioritise PC because PC modders almost got R* shut down by Karens. Although R* did say they wont take legal action against modders they still ask people to not mess with their games.

    9:34 It's actually possible to complete Portrait Of A Killer without using the police computer, the target actually spawns immediately after the mission starts (using the police computer simply marks the gang members on the map) so if you know the gang's location off by heart you can actually drive straight there using any vehicle and as soon as you make your presence known the objective updates like usual telling you to take down all the gang members, the only thing you miss out on by completing the mission like this is that Niko won't call the contact to tell him that he's found the place when you get close to the gang's hideout.

The icons for your next mission/s will be missing on your map (most common is on Bernie Crane's first mission.) which will result you to find it manually on your map thru guides or thru the internet. If you finally find that mission you wanted to go and finished it, then the icon for your next and other missions will appear from there.
