(Added that the mission had a really popular glitch that was pretty versatile. It could be used from glimmer farming to upgrading guns. The only thing is that I can put myself as one of the references lol, so not sure if that's academically a good thing. Here's the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75y24obb920)
