Many players including u/jayk82 commented that Lester Crest charges too much for his involvement in GTA 5 Online missions. In Story Mode, the character physically appears for most of the missions.

While Michael was the immediate killer of Jay Norris, Lester was the mastermind behind this. Jay’s death was among the most surprising moments in the Grand Theft Auto series. According to Redditor u/Yvngautism, blowing up Jay’s head on live TV was one of the worst things Lester did in GTA 5.

4) Not removing cops

Lester Crest can remove all wanted level stars in GTA 5 Online. However, it is unclear what conditions are required to get this service from him, as most of the time, he simply denies the service. According to u/mindshift42, this inconsistency is one of the worst behaviors from Lester.

5) Stock market manipulation

While Trevor successfully completes The Merryweather Heist without taking Lester’s help, the latter appears at last and asks the protagonist to abandon the score. Redditor u/alnic4 did not like the action of Lester as the score was very lucrative.

8) Suggested to kill friends

Redditor u/oliverkn1ght pointed out that Lester did not care about his friends. When Franklin told Lester about Devin Weston’s commands, Lester simply suggested to kill both Michale and Trevor. This uncertainty leads to two of the worst missions in the Grand Theft Auto series that can get either of the targeted characters killed.

9) Spying

10) Cringy behavior
