Everything about Miles' half of the game is cringe. His side missions are straight out of a sjw fan fiction bible. Helping a gay couple with decorations. Retrieving stolen instruments from a Harlem ethnic music museum. Searching BIPOC street art for hidden messages. Playing as his deaf girlfriend as she graffitis over graffiti, using trans flag colors (and yes the graffiti artist is 'misunderstood' and obviously trans, never once is it brought up that it's vandalism.)
The thing is, Miles himself is not the problem. He seems indifferent but keeps getting dragged into this horseshit by people who are like "you're a black latino so you're obviously interested, right?" He's actually out to kill the guy who killed his father but keeps getting hoodwinked by helpless crybabies who won't call police because racism.
But if you want the tokens to upgrade shit, you're forced to endure the stuff that's less realistic than the actual superhero content.
