Title screen - Noble81 - 01-17-2016

So before you complete the game and on all the images the soma image is a broken image. An image of maybe a female split up with the red light in the middle. When you've completed the game the image changes to Catherine, is that basically telling you Catherine is pretty much the wau ?

The voice when Catherine takes over the simulation to trick the security guy into giving you the code is the same as when you have the flash back/dream of waking up in bed after the accident. It wasn't your girlfriend it was Catherine a.i.

Different voice actors, tho.

Catherine is not the WAU. She was a PATHOS-II worker who created the ARK project. The WAU was't even developed at PATHOS II, but was designed (and likely constructed) at Carthage.

No, the voice when you think you've woken up in your room was Catherine just like it was Catherine during the interrogation.

I'll admit that the resemblance is eerie, but Catherine's behavior at the end of the game makes it pretty clear that she's not the WAU.

Most likely it was just a cost thing, that the voices were the same.

I wouldn't look in to it too much Wink

I think the wake up in bed was WAU trying to simulate an environment for Simon. Kind of like how the other machines think they're in their own safe environment.

Evidence? Theories? You can't make a statement like this without evidence Smile Else you open yourself up to a heap of different contradictions.
