Dottore (Doctor, Il Dottore) in Harbingers. He previously appeared in the official manga and played an important role in it, and was also present in the teaser for Lazzo in a Winter Night.
The appearance of the Doctor in the game's plot not only caused a stir among manga fans, but also gave rise to a lot of speculation among the entire gaming community. The main question that arose among many players was whether Dottore playable character in Genshin Impact? The opinions of the fans of the game are divided: many are looking forward to the release of the Harbinger as a hero, while others are skeptical about this fact and do not believe in the redemption of Dottore and his becoming “patterned good”, worthy of friendship with the Traveler.
Next, we consider the arguments “for” and “against” separately and in more detail.
Reasons for Dottore to be a playable character
Based only on texture names in the game files, the version of Dottore we saw might be the game version.
One of the main arguments in favor of the release of Dottore as a playable character was the fact that the Harbinger is present in the game files, but not as an NPC, but as a regular playable character. At the moment, the Doctor is marked “two-hander”, which could be his future weapon.
After Itto.
A proven and fairly reliable insider HXG Diluc also gave his opinion on Dottore's playability:
I think Dottore won't play in versions 3.X. He will need his own storyline to explain how he can the Traveler. Maybe it will take 1 or 2 years after the release of 3.0.
He also noted that if the Harbinger becomes a playable character, he "will not become good, he will not be divided into two separate personalities, and he will enter the Traveler's group without changes."
This is definitely a game model, however, I think that its design does not look good enough and detailed like real game characters. So it's possible that the in-game Dottore will look different and the existing model is only the basis for his clones.
Another opinion about the existing character model. The detail about Dottore clones is quite interesting in this matter.
Reasons why Dottore won't be a playable character
There are no less players who do not believe in the possibility of becoming playable Dottore. There is almost as much evidence for this as there are arguments for it.
The main argument against is the fact sucking at Dottore Eyes of God. It is known from the history of the Harbinger that he has no respect for the owners of the Eye of God and despises them. This is primarily due to the activities of Dottore - experiments on people and their modification in order to create higher beings, superior in strength to the gods themselves.
It is extremely difficult to imagine a game character that does not have the Eye of God and does not have any divine powers. It is more difficult only to implement such a character as a game character.
“Why does this stone under the mask look almost like the Eye of Corruption?”
“I see some similarities, however, it is unlike any Eye of Corruption we have seen before.
“If I'm not mistaken, we only saw two eyes of Corruption: Crepus in the manga and Tartaglia in the fight with him. Although they are the same shape, they have different symbols.
There is an opinion that the Doctor can own Eye of Corruption (which, again, is against the rules for playable characters). It appeared after the leak of the render of the Dottore model, under the mask of which a strange red stone was found. If he really is Corruption, then this once again proves that the Harbinger is just another opponent for the Traveler.
For those unfamiliar with the character, Dottore is one of really negative heroes throughout the Genshin universe...
... It seems that in the possibility of becoming a Harbinger playable doubt even the dataminers themselves.
At the moment, it's really hard to imagine a situation in which Dottore could atone for his past deeds, renounce his principles and become a positive enough character to the Traveler. This is also one of the strong arguments against the playability of the new Harbinger.
MiHoYo don't like antagonists. If you really want Dottore to be playable, start writing about it in the suggestion box (otherwise I think he'll die).
— It is possible that the situation of the Signora will be repeated (palace duel in 2.1).
Some players are sure that Dottore is another Harbinger who will die in the story due to some circumstances.
Conclusion
Thus, both sides of the issue have fairly strong evidence in favor of the possibility or impossibility of Dottore appearing among the playable characters. At the moment, one thing is certain: before the release Fontaine In the summer of next year, the release of Dottore can not be expected, because otherwise it would have become known from a recent large-scale leak.

A very cool character, but for Hoe he belongs to the category of "terribly bad", since he conducts experiments on children, and as for "loved by many", Capitano was also loved by many... and died?
Smiling means he's kind)
I think if Dottore is playable, we will most likely play as his clone. He can be said to belong to the "bad" group. Yes, there are many "bad" and "good" ones, but I doubt that he will agree to the traveler. He will see him as a wonderful experiment (considering all the abilities of the main character). Why a clone? I think that according to the plot, something will go wrong with one of Dottore's clones and he will the "good" ones, as it was with the Ambulance. His model looks like a game model, but I still lean towards my theory. It would be interesting to hear your opinion.
By the way. We still don't have a Hydro two-hander)))
And about the lack of the Eye of God... a completely physical two-handed sword???))))
It seems to me that he is quite capable of becoming playable because he was loved by a huge number of fans, I don’t think that they would remove him. (I think it will be like with the Wanderer.) Dottore will probably be against the traveler at first, but then if he becomes interested at least in the traveler’s abilities (switching between the powers of the archons, purifying the tears of the dragon. One hundred percent Dottore will be interested in this.)
Who ever came up with the idea that if a character doesn't have the eye of a god, they won't be playable? Let's start with the fact that there are already four playable archons in the game. they don't have the eyes of a god. they have gnosis. except that Zhongli and Venti have fake trinkets to explain to people how they use elemental power. Yes, and we will send to the same steppe ...
announced Nevillett, who has neither the eye of a god, nor, most likely, a semblance of gnosis. he is not an archon, but he can also use the elements without difficulty and, oh, how so, he will be playable ...
so why can't Dottore use at least the eye of corruption? one game character - Tartaglia - already has it, although we did not use it, but nevertheless. Yes, and Dilyuk used to have it ...
in general, the presence of the eye of a god is far from an indicator of whether the Persian will be playful or not.
Dottore would also like to comment on the “spitefulness”. genshin is far from black and white, everyone here is both “bad” and “good”, especially the archons. who knows, maybe the plot will be wrapped up in such a way that the harbingers will not attack us on the move, and he will change his attitude towards them ...
ps I know that the article was written a long time ago, but at that time there was only Nevillett, so the comment will be appropriate in any case.
pps sorry, I'm just the main Dottore fan...
the gnosis was taken away from the archons, so in fact they take it out purely on their own) but for now we are waiting for news about Dottora
Moreover, Dottore cannot be called bad. He does not want problems, so he did not kill the traveler when he came for the gnosis. In addition, he could have simply beaten Nahida and forcibly taken the hearts, but he did not do this...
I think that Dottore will be playable, perhaps due to the fact that Hoevers can earn if the character is popular, then why don't they make money on it.
I would like, I would like to. But I don’t imagine him at all as kind and pretty, somehow all the charm is lost. Maybe someday he will change in some way ... but at the same time he will retain his character ... who knows. We don’t even know what he is like without these clones, his lore is complete. I like all the Harbingers, I love the villains... But still, for me the main enemy is the one who separated from the twin.
About the eye of God can not be considered as an argument, there are already two cases in the plot how the characters get it right during game events, and no one canceled the system with clones, another clone was shown in the manga, it was he who hated the eyes of God, which so far for sure cannot be said about the rest;
And the situation with the destruction of all segments can hardly be called accurate, in the end, the developers can somehow turn it around and explain, maybe we will see the creation of a new clone in the plot (which may be hinted at by the next most technologically advanced Fontaine region and the theory with the advent of of the old and new harbinger in each region respectively) or there is some nuance with Nahida (maybe she didn't see a few more segments because they were offline (or not completed yet))
In short, the developers have a thousand and one opportunities to make it playable, killing such a character will be at least stupid + completely devalue the ranks of the harbingers, because if the second strongest dies it will be a disappointment
Hmm... I don't even know about that, but it seems to me that he has either a hydro or a cryo element. And what about the fact that he will be playable, I really hope for this, maybe they will do the same with him as with Scaramuccia (or a wanderer by new standards)
I, of course, hope for its playability, but this is very unlikely: 1. Dottore is a cruel antagonist who ruined the lives of quite a few people. 2. If you look at the commedia dell'arte, then he is a vekki, and the vekki in genshe will die: for example, Signora. 3. Dottore can't have the eye of a god, as was said before.
But still, I love him very much, as a cruel scum-antagonist, in principle, I love villains for their character, they are cool and not sissies.
Personally, I would really like to see Dottore playing, but I can’t imagine how it will be, how he can not be an enemy to the traveler. On the other hand, Tartaglia is also not the most innocent, and he has his own dark side. Although, of course, not as dark as Dottore's, but still ... I will believe that he is playful ..
I think not. By nature, Dattore is worse than Senora. If Señora’s mentality flew due to the death of a loved one, after that the eyes of damage (if there is one, I don’t this, but it seems to be) did its job. Then Dattore has no excuses, only that it is for the sake of science. At the same time, this blue-haired one will destroy the tree (I don’t what), this is already for me arividerchi to the next world.
So he was kicked out of the village literally before he had time to do anything to people at all, if I correctly and know his story. Which characters are bad doesn’t make them unplayable, Raiden also did a lot of shit, that didn’t stop her from being playable, only the former Mihuyo decided that Raiden the villain from which a normal antagonist could turn out is bad, they decided to make her a pseudo-good character, who decided to “get on the right track” with Gg’s pendal, resulting in an incomprehensible character, with incomprehensible intentions, who creates some kind of game with signs of Bipolar. The antagonist Dottore is REALLY an antagonist, not Raiden 2.0.- This is a really cool idea, he could be introduced into the plot and brought closer to Gg based on some circumstances, it is not necessary to make him good. Moreover, Childe also greatly shook our trust, as a result, he is a playable character. So your reasoning is very strange.
He will NEVER be playable. How can one draw any conclusions without knowing anything about fatui? El Dottore - VECCI. Most likely, he will die or be imprisoned.
Dak Huoversy said that only names and characters were taken from comedy, and the development of their destinies would be what is convenient for the developers themselves?
It seems to me that if he appears in the game, then in the form of one of the clones, which does not have all the abilities, but this clone will be deformed and become good (Just my theory)
It won’t be a game, read about the characters of the Italian theater and find out all the fates of all these tartaly, the captain, etc.
Can you briefly describe what is there I just can not find
Comedy itself is an improvisation on a given theme. She does not have a clear script and development. For example, in some productions, Dottore was Pantalone's accomplice, while in some they were at enmity .. Yes, and Hoyo themselves have already said that they took only names and characters from comedy, and they will develop them in a way that is convenient for them. And not to copy those Del Arte scripts that have been preserved in the form of scripts. So there is nothing to look at, and it is too early to draw conclusions ...
If they merge this character and make it pretty, it will be very sad. They won't be better at all. I like Dottore, his story, etc., but then it's better to look from the side
IMHO, but it seems to me that dottore will get its game version in the form of one of the clones, which will bear little resemblance to the omega build and the version from the webcomic. we wouldn't be told that he has an uncountable number of clones if it didn't play an important role.
I also don’t believe that Dottore will become playable… How can such a maniac congratulate others, worry about the low HP of allies, etc… Signora also has a detailed model, but she didn’t become playable because of this… That’s who can become, so it’s Captaino… And Varka said that he was a normal man, and other characters don’t think badly about him ... True, he will not appear soon, but he has more chances to become playable than an inhuman doctor
The main difference between the Signora model and the Dottore model is the uniqueness of height, physique and name in the game files. the signora had a unique one, but dottore received a model of a classic male type claymore
Well, they just decided not to bathe, and made a mistake on the classic model
Well, perhaps the model will change, like the boss Dottore, we can not wait yet, Scaramucciacha is coming out now
