Letitia's a really bad part of a really good game. When lead character Adam Jensen encounters her in Detroit, she's picking through the trash. It becomes clear that she's an informant from Jensen's police days and, as their conversation continues, she gives Jensen a few hints and a general sense of the mood of the city. Letitia's horrible character design doesn't stop you from exploring the cyberpunk world of 2027. Instead, she makes you wonder about how she even came into existence.

Look, I get what Letitia's supposed to be. She's an informant in the Huggy Bear mode, the street person whose access to the underworld helps the hero get to the next part of the plot. Is she a have-not? Absolutely. Does she sound like the other have-nots in the game? Absolutely not. From 1:57 to 2:12 of the above video clip, Letitia talks about people losing jobs and homes, going on to say that the city feels likes its going to explode. If things were different, if Letitia was at all recognizably human, you could read those chunks of text as either a reference to the infamous 1967 Detroit Riots or the current discomfort created by the global economic downturn. The potential metaphorical depth that DXHR could hold in that moment gets squandered by the character delivering it.
