You could try using Symbolic Linking it could work for your case but overall its a bad idea.

I have used it to move existing files from my program files directory onto another drive. Proceed with caution though i have never done it for any games before
Hey there, apple tech geek.

Unfortunately, the answer is - no. You'll keep getting errors about missing files if the game tries to start at all. This goes for any game, not just GTA 5. Sorry for the grim news, but I don't think there's a workaround other than getting an external drive with larger capacity and install your games on it.

Hope that helps. Please let me know how everything goes.
