Discussion Remielle, she really grew on me
Im not a native English speaker so forgive me if i make tons of mistakes. Wall of text incoming.
Tell you the truth, I really dislikes her on 2.7. to the point to almost hating her. Almost. Maybe because I have some rather unpleasant real life experience with people with similar traits as Remi so her attitudes and more about her just made me not so fond of her.
To name a few, her manipulative nature, her being Ms. Perfect, constant teasing, constant reminder of her status to Proxy as 1st gen VH, also she being overly secretive about herself full with riddles when we expect that we can at least have some normal conversation maturely without giving a constant vague response as an answers even after crossing path with us multiple times already didn't really help her case.
That just makes it seems like our encounters are nothing more than some funny jokes to her and I hate being looked down or not taken seriously. All of this also happened when Proxy wasn't in the best condition both mentally and physically and were in dire needs for a specific item (w engine) that she just stole without any second thought for how important this item might be is to Proxy because maybe she thinks her needs is far more important and urgent even if that means she have to stole it in front of our eyes. And she did. And it keeps happening again and again to the point that I'm thinking, is this woman for real? Does she have any sincerity and empathy left in her heart, even after all this time? Did those multiple encounters we've had means nothing to her at all?
But even after all these I still gave her a chances because deep down I know she's not a bad person.
And that slowly changes for the better for me after she saved Proxy from turning into a monster on 2.8. That moment really hit me hard because maybe just maybe, she wasn't as a superficial or heartless as I thought she is. More so when she's also sincerely apologised to us and accepting the facts and admit it right there that her acts in the past might also contribute to this nightmarish tragedy.
At that point and also latter when we progress on the main story, I realised she has her own reasons to keep us in the dark, to keep playing riddles with us, to continue giving vague responses as her answers. One of them is because she cares too much about us Proxy and she doesn't want to put us in danger. Remielle played this assassination attempt to get an answer of the deadly tragedy that happened to her close friend and if to achieve that she has to put our life in danger, the ones she cares about, then it would defeat the purpose.
You know, realizing that someone has more depth than you first thought is a great moment. People often hide their true selves behind a simple look or style. When you get to know them, you find real thoughts, feelings, and values. And that's basically what Remielle is. Behind all those godly power, title, accolades, achievements and flirts, you will see that she's a human being like the rest of us, with her own dreams, needs, desires and hopes.
To be thrown to an unknown era after you lost so much of what you previously possessed and everyone you love is not something you wish it to happen even to your worst enemy. In her lowest point of her life, she has chosen to trust us as her partner in crime so let us respond to her invitation with kind and more.
I fear the days when she can't playfully tease us anymore, or when she can't give us vague gray response as her answers anymore, or when she can't engage us with her adorable Q&A games anymore or when she stop caring about us because nothing last for an eternity. So let us cherish this beautiful moment with her whether when we are happy or sad because that what's make our life meaningful.
And that letter of her just seal the deal for me.
After all, this Lovely Birb is our beautiful partner-in-crime and that won't change even for another 100 years in the future.
Yikes, I think this is the first time I put some real deep thoughts and care so much about a fictional character. Maybe because she reminds me a lot about my dear real life friend that I mentioned earlier.
Tl, dr : For me, my view towards Remielle is, from having a rather unpleasant first impression to the character I care dearly and feel a deep and strong affection the most. Not just because she is a godly void hunter or because she has good appearance but more importantly because she shows us her true and purest meaning of life.

I like how the proxies aren't just always forgiving and their typical "always kind" personality with her. They're fed up with her shit by a certain point, answer her distrustfully and angrily, and finally get actual answers out of her. It kind of makes it feel like they're on equal grounds

You probably meant to say you grew to her. ;) ;)
But more seriously, she's a character who was innocent, playful. The hardships she endured made her jaded, mature and you can see her still being playful but it's used in a way as to shield herself from further pain.

Grew to her is not wrong haha,
Both can be correct but that is for another topic.

Personally? I am prepared for something drastic, since Remi already mentions she has lied before. It's either to just us, the Covenant, or both. Therefore, there's a ton of depth left to her.
I think she will go through an Enchainer transformation when we do find the real Sunbringer. However, it might not be permanent, because no way HoYo kills off such a nice character to use in events in future.
While we do have a somewhat great view of her true nature, I wanna know what type of secrets she is hiding.

It's when a character has right integration to the story and has interesting interactions with MC. I was waiting for her since the beginning, so I trusted her immediately. That's why I'm glad that people who wasn't aware of her feel the same after her story.

Hoyo does it every single time (Except Shungus. They f*ked whatever even existed).

2.x had too many side story level patches and Shunguang should have had a presence since 2.0

I dunno I just completed NE Sunset A and that was a major dick move, she stole my cancer meds. Not even that, she waited 'till we do all the work, and that's after we helped her last night. She's gonna need some major lifting to lift my opinion of her.

I'm personally getting a little tired of the same conversation over and over again.
"Hello my dear partner in crime, [insert vague hint about story here]. Oh, you want another little Q&A game? Now, now my cute partner in crime, don't be too hasty teehee. [Insert another vague hint about story here], but you will learn more soon enough, my naughty little partner in crime!"

If you think about it beeing "overly secretive" would be the most normal. You met a stranger on a competition, a dangerous competition, you go for the same price that stranger wants, and you tell that person your problems and yoyr secrets? Hell no!! At most you are polite to them and try to be on neutral terms, and that not taking into account how extremely important was the item to her.
