Why have all the references to "the Devotress" on the main page been switched to "the Changeling"? Is this a more accurate translation of the original Russian, or the term that is used in the HD remaster or remake?

Um, yes. Both. The most literal translation from the russian, I belieive, would be "The Impostress", or something like that.
(he/him)
Re: the Not That Kind of Doctor example: I believe the example is drawing attention to the fact that he's a bachelor of medicine, not a doctor of medicine? He has the right type of degree, but not the right level. That's weirdly specific and not really what the trope actually means, though, so...I don't know. Maybe this is something that makes more sense in a Russian context?
I think it would be a better idea to move the Pathologic 2 information and tropes onto a new page just for that game. You know, to differentiate them as it isn't a remake.
