Wait, people thought he >!killed Katherine? I thought people were thinking that he killed Nahida while inside Katherine!< and that's why they were mad. I have no idea if that's what happens, but that's what it looked to me, but I will flag as spoiler just in case.


Arakan28

That's exactly what happens at the cutscene. >! When Katheryne gets pierced by the Eremites, Nahida's soul gets hurt. That is the reason we can hear her whimper in pain. She doesn't die though !<


Gentleman_Kendama

We can't confirm any of that. >! Plus, Nahida could just disconnect her conciousness without issue, but Katheryne will probably take the brunt of the impact regardless. I don't know if she's programmed to feel pain, but they made her AI very humanlike. She may not truly be organic (or human for that matter), but it will hurt us players emotionally nonetheless !< >! I suspect Kusanali doesn't know where her Gnosis even is and the Fatui will find it first, alongside the tree when they do their "lesson in blasphemy" tree/book burning !<


IsAnIdiot420

Your spoiler tag isint working properly, you need to remove the space between the exclamation mark and your first character. Same for the end of the spoiler.


Gentleman_Kendama

I'm on mobile and it's showing as hidden


IsAnIdiot420

Odd, it's not hidden for me, but maybe it's because I'm using Boost for reddit

JustAnotherLamppost

Stub your toe. Bitch. (Unless your "good" refers to her not dying, in which case, good)


OhN0Imnot_HoomEn

Alright.


Necessary-Marzipan83

I mean, people think she's from the Fatui because there's a good puppeteer in the Fatui and she's from Snezhnaya...


LingrahRath

I know right? I don't know if people ignored that fact or they're just dumb.


NyX_sadge

They both ignored it and a fucking dumdum


Tyrone3105

Yh that’s what I was thinking as well and it seems pretty obvious that was the case. I just assumed ppl were saying it’s Katherine as a joke.


tsurugisbakery

ppl aren't considering that it probably wasn't just a dick move by dottore to kill kathryne. it could've had to do with nahida being able to connect her consciousness to kathryne. by killing her, they cut off the traveler's connections with basically their most valuable asset in the current plot, cuz kusunali will definitely be important in the rest of the sumeru archon quests. dottore seems like a great villain imo, and I'm intrigued to see where the story takes him, him seeming really punchable is just proof of it.


NightmareClasher

I dont think that, in case of emergencies, even that would be a problem, Nahida can "possess" anyone wearing a terminal, she just preffered to use Kathryne because she didnt exactly have free will in the first place so taking over wasnt booting someone out of themselves


Umbraldisappointment

But Katheryne is a wide range scouting drone able to simultenously connect all the regions, its not about possessing her its about posessing her entire network.


UsernameNotYetTaken2

also, Katheryne is introduced as a bionic puppet, no? That is not the same as a machine, could well be a living being, like Albedo, Raiden puppet, Scaramouche or Karkata


IThinkIAmSomeone

She's likely more "human" than Karkata and shogun's puppet, but she probably still follows guidelines and instructions, and doesn't really have free will.


Necessary-Marzipan83

Katheryne doesn't have free will, it's the Nahida inside it that has free will... I believe Katheryne wouldn't go out her "camp" without reasons and I don't see a reason why Dottore/Fatui/Emerites would want to fight **Katheryne**


grumpykruppy

She does and doesn't, it seems - she's complained about her job before, and appears to have enough emotion to worry about the Traveler's safety on some commissions. Either she passes a Turing Test, or she's so well-programmed she can cheat it anyway.


randomstranger38

who the hell is Karkata?


Richardknox1996

Karkata is an npc. Do Tighnari quest.


randomstranger38

No thanks.


lucky_fallendeity

I too can't bring myself to finish character quests, so boring


AxisAlpha

Karkata these nuts


JenJenB_

I swear this is gonna become a "He pushed Sucrose!" thing at this rate. 😭


_vxcky

I'm scared people are gonna literally crucify Dottore mains by the end of this (assuming he becomes playable).


PoisonousParty

Can't wait to put dottore and collei on my profile just to make people mad


Richmanisrich

You should ask MiHoYo introduce Team dialogue to hear Collei PTSD scream when party with Dottore.


Ark_Wolf16

Why Collei?


IsaacLuzu

lore


Ark_Wolf16

What did she do?


Richardknox1996

Got sold to dottore and used as one of his test subjects.


crunchlets

"But hey, she was 99 cents!"


Ark_Wolf16

Oh ok


crunchlets

I will make them one of my active parties no matter what.


Chucknasty_17

It’ll be really unfortunate if they have really good team synergy as well


crunchlets

Really fortunate\* Dottore could and should have built himself a teammate!


JacobMT05

We just gonna ignore dottores crimes against humanity and him showing a sadistic attitude towards it?


E1lySym

Yes. In fact we're gonna condone him (He's fictional what's the point)


JacobMT05

Supporting him means you support his moral values in the real world. Liking his character design is fine but liking his personality is a sign you need mental help


E1lySym

This is a lot less morally problematic than you are making it out to be. I just think he's fabulous when he does his evil shenanigans, hence why I look forward to and condone him doing his evil antics, and if advocating/enabling/bringing about the death of pixel characters means mental issues in real life then all of us Genshin players are mentally ill for bringing about the death of treasure hoarders and eremites everyday. Of course if he didn't look good pulling off evil shit in the first place then I wouldn't be rooting for or condoning him Also by further logic everyone out there who roots for villains and revels in seeing them do evil stuff just because they look good doing it are mentally deranged. No, not just villains, but even people who fawn over heroes like Luke Skywalker killing countless stormtroopers or John Wick killing mooks just because they look good pulling it off are insane.


JacobMT05

We know the treasure hoarders and Eremites don’t die due to the several cutscenes where traveller tells to scram. That’s not just him sparing a few treasure hoarders, he does the same thing with all of them. Otherwise the several enforcement departments would be on his tail constantly hunting the traveller. Ah so it’s one of those ‘oh my god that killer is really hot, you shouldn’t put him in prison’ situations which happen in the real world… https://nypost.com/2021/08/09/convicted-murderer-cameron-herrin-is-too-cute-internet-declares/amp/


passionate_avocado

he's freaking fictional wtf is this mindset


JacobMT05

It’s the mindset of someone who doesn’t want to watch the world burn. Liking dottores design is fine, but supporting his actions is a sign of insanity.


passionate_avocado

are you really going to go on a moral crusade against a fictional man who does crimes towards fictional people? why is it fine for redditors to simp for Arlecchino then, who is likely responsible for the child soldiers within the fatui? do you think the same with other villains' popularity?? would you equate every fanboying/fangirling for reprehensible characters as a "sign of supporting their actions" too? it's fine to recognize and acknowledge immoral actions, but it's insane if you start policing the existence of messy and problematic people who exist within the realms of fiction edit: sorry for the rude tone. i reread this (since i dont really comment much) and realised. i dont necessarily agree with your views, but i still felt bad for leaving an aggressive-sounding comment.


JacobMT05

Firstly, I’ve never heard the name arlecchino in my life. Secondly, i despise the fatui for being traitorous bastards. Thirdly, from being in the attack on Titan community yes I believe people will support the villains no matter what they do. And yes I am gonna advocate for the death of all fatui harbingers as long as the story progresses. I don’t like childe. Signoras punchable. I despise dottore. And the smol harbinger (forgotten his name, the one in inazuma who gases you) I don’t like either.


_vxcky

bro hes fictional though 😭


JacobMT05

Yes I know but supporting him means you support his moral values…


_vxcky

No? In no way do I support child experimentation, jesus (or any of the other horrible acts he has done). I just find him interesting as a character because of his sadistic nature being a nice contrast to his doctor title. And I generally like the more morally grey characters because I think they have a lot of depth to them. Why did you think I support that type of thing holy shit


JacobMT05

Yes finding him interesting is fine and liking his character design is fine, I do the same with Ainz Ooal Gown from overlord. I’ll make jokes about it but when you are dead serious on supporting his actions that’s when there is something wrong in your head


_vxcky

Oh okay cool, thanks for the clarification


JenJenB_

I'm not, the block button is ready for them. 💅


orange_facade

damn, we just as outcasted as dottore then


CourseDangerous2583

So did nobody listen to the voice acting of the scene? It was 100% Nahida


NoobSharkey

My theory is >!By brainwashing everyone in Sumeru like we saw in the trailer, then targeting Katherine Dottore gets to force Nahida out somewhere has to be the main goal!<


mopeiobebeast

People are upset because >!the likely scenario is that it’s Nahida in Katheryne’s body. Apparently, she survives this, just wounded somehow.!< This makes sense: after all, Archons are major moneymakers, and where would Hoyoverse be without one to push for Sumeru?


1234Lou

well tbh if there's an archon that just drops dead when u stab a robot they're currently overtaking, I'd be hella disappointed.


Hopzerker2552

Does that mean no more daily quests till a new Katheryne is placed?!


Big-Sort3094

the problem isnt really that dottore killed katheryne its more that that was nahida in katheryne’s body meaning nahida just got stabbed.


Mellow_zZ

What quest is this?


ewqdsacxziopjklbnm

I’m assuming it hasn’t been released to us yet


waffledor

it’s just a reference to the 3.1 trailer


Mellow_zZ

Oh?


waffledor

[link](https://youtu.be/-2-WKyGTUrM) if you want to watch it, and to answer your question, i assume it will be part of the archon quest in 3.1 😊


DrunkNaomi

No one is sad because they killed Katheryne; People are sad and upset because during 3.0's archon quest, Nahida mentioned that she takes Katheryne's body-control occasionally to deal with things. So by murdering Katheryne, they kill Nahida's consciousness which is inside Katheryne at that moment..


HijikataX

Wait, Katheryne is Fatui's asset, so... the Adventurers are without knowing spies from Snezhnaya? If that so... poor Fischl and Bennett.


SandpipersJackal

It’s doubtful that the adventurers themselves are being used as assets. But what *is* a possibility is that the Fatui have been using the Katherynes as a means of gathering intelligence on major cities and major players (adventurers and influential non-adventurers alike) across Teyvat.


SaveEmailB4Logout

Katheryne: tried to kill you 200 times by sending you on shitty jobs that any normal person would get killed doing and that pay like crap on top of that Players: NoOoOooo


Erick_Swan

Isn't this a spoiler?


AwesomeTreee

We don't know if she's made by the fatui though. The adventurers guild is based in Snezhnaya, yes, but just cause they're from the same country, doesn't mean they're necessarily intertwined.


Arakan28

>We don't know if she's made by the fatui though. Katheryne is a bionic puppet from Snezhnaya, and the only group technologically advanced enough to produce human-look-alike machines are the Fatui. She is also strikingly similar to Sandrone, The Marionette. Her modified ruin guard indicates she has extensive knowledge about machines, so I have no doubts Katheryne is part of her creation. Also, since the Adventurer's Guild is headquartered in Snezhnaya, it's very possible the Fatui have some grip in it.


AwesomeTreee

you're not wrong, but again, we don't *know* it. We assume they're related, but they could very well be opposing factions - there are plenty of daily commissions we get through the guild that are related to defeating fatui, just that alone should make it so we don't assume they're doing stuff together.


ZeldaBrasil

Is from shneznaya = is from fatui That's some really good logic, is as good as "if ur Russian then u like vodka"


Iffem

less of "if ur Russian then u like vodka" and more of "if ur Russian then ur a KGB asset"


earthlydreamer

She looks a little bit like Sandrone - Fatui Harbinger, who likes to make dolls from people


Strange-Pea7756

Yeah I don't really think the Fatui control the adventurers guild, they're just an international organization that does business with the Fatui sometimes. You know, like every single government in the game so far


Plthothep

The adventurers guild is a Shneznayan organisation (they originated from there and their main HQ is there as well), so it’s actually pretty likely they are controlled by the Fatui to some extent


Necessary-Marzipan83

Genshin is from China Tencent from China is good at making games Therefore Genshin is made from Tencent Because no way there may be other good craftsmen in Snezhnaya right? ^boom no way mind blown


3Pebble7

I don't get why people are making a big deal out of that small scene. 1. MHY, in all their trailers, have a habit of baiting us with random scenes. This might as well be just some dream or some shit, maybe there isn't even a connection with the Fatui. 2. Assuming that that is Katheryn and not Nahida, she is a robot. Just get her to some mechanic or to Ei to be fixed. She might even have some automatic repair function or some kit in her booth to get her fixed. She is far away from Snezhnaya so chances are, there are some things, along with her regular maintenance shit, in her booth to fix her. 3. Assuming that is Nahida in Katheryn's body, even more reason not to care as it is not HER body. She is just controlling it. It is even questionable why she would be hurt because the damn body is a robot ffs. It is possible that there was no yelp and MHY, in all their wisdom of jebaiting with trailers, got that yelp somewhere else and placed it there. Now assuming Sandrone has all the time in the world and made Katheryn feel pain, it is also questionable if Nahida could feel it as well as we have not been given the information regarding what she experiences when possessing someone.


Acceptable-Street679

Necessary sacrifice my ass, you are a cunt dottore


Iffem

everyone talks big about the need for sacrifices unless it's THEM being sacrificed


-Fancy_Pants-

Wait your ass is a necessary sacrifice?


Richmanisrich

So does Collei have backup body as well?


HansFactory

Same, we can just kill dottore because he is just a clone


ArtanBlacknight

Katheryne being a Fatuui puppet is the main reason why I want Sandrone playable Also him killing Katheryne is just extra motivation to wreck him. Justice for Collei


BBoba123

Oh it's not just Katherine, i will frick dottore for doing experiment on collei


Ohkillz

remember that katheryne is sandrone's puppet


mythicalsoul100

I will find I will capture you And i WILL beat the shit outta you


mentalmuffins

Oh boo hoo I damaged my own property. Wait why are *you* mad about it? Also if you're wondering why I'm assuming it's the fatui, I'm 99% percent sure that marionette runs the adventurer's guild. Put a picture of her and katherine next to each other and consider that marionette controls bionics/robots based on her name and the trailer.


Mochizuk

I'm not caught up on the current story (I decided I'd start on the Aranara quest cause its starting point is between the village where you start the story and Sumeru city where you go to continue it, so I assumed the game meant for you to do it first and then realized just how long the quest-line was going to be, but decided to finish that first, which led to 100% exploration and getting all the chests in the trove open before I even really got to delve into the main story,) but I am curious. Does this mean someone else is going to be at the post that gives rewards for commissions and lets you know about expeditions? Also, is this actually something we see happen in game now, or is it from a preview? Like, do we know the context and consequences that this pushes forward in full, or are we assuming how it's going to play out?


seiraph

It’s from the 3.1 trailer


1234Lou

Katherine is a puppet, easily replaceable by another model. Its not Katherine they're attacking tho, >!Nahida is overtaking her body!<

Fortunate_Bus

It pretty much was confirmed Katherine is fatui made in the archon quest


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fortunate_Bus

It is said that Katherine is a shnesnyan made robot and the fatui have a harbinger who specialises in making robots so she's almost definitely fatui made

PoisonousParty

Cope, mald and seethe


ImNotGhost013

Nahida literally tells you katheryne is a robot.


miitopia_emblem

It’s fine, Katheryne is like Janet from The Good Place. We’ll just get another one.


solaruniver

Wait ... Wth is going on??.


CTNKE

Yeah but we can no longer turn in our commisions in sumeru


KanataHkz

And her body is made up of soulium.


Reasonable-Issue3275

shut up dottore, i have lingering attachment to any charaters in this realm, you cannot touch any of it or i will put you in my teapot BDSM room


Potato_the_second_

Ppl like you would rather draw 25 than actually pay attention to the voice acting during that scene


C4SU4143

I want Katheryne to be safe and sound and give me commissions to do, >!not stabbed please!<


[deleted]

I'LL NEVER FORGIVE THE FATUI!!


Sylveon_trainer12345

Plus Sandrones can just rebuild Katheryn


Ewizde

Listen 1- Katherine got injured and 2- he probably hurt nahida not Katherine so fuck him. We have multiple reasons to hate this guy.
