It's amazing when you consider: Karlarch is not in the game's cover art, she was barely in early access, and wasn't a companion you could recruit until the full release. Yet, she instantly became the community's favorite! *Shadowheart Disapproves
I just hate that they gave her a man's body(women can only fit their own head across their shoulder 2 1/2 times but men(all men with xy chromosomes no exceptions) can always fit their head 3 times. This is why it's usually really easy to tell a trans man to a woman as their shoulders are far too wide and hips too thin. The hips part can differ and is a general rule of thumb but they literally just put tits on a bros body then slapped a cute girls head on it and it's super uncanny to any man who has dated and interacted with a lot of women intimately it immediately jumps out at you and I literally feel bad for having to shut her down over shadowheart because she's so nice and cool. It's just so weird , I think she must have been originally designed as a trans character but then changed it last minute. I have no issue with that it's the weird half measure that puts me off. Like clearly asterion is fabulous asf and I love it he's my fav of all the origin characters by far but he owns it and everyone is better off for it if you get my drift.
@@JamesMadisonsSpiritAnimal she is female barbarian, of course she's going to be athletic. have you ever seen a female atheletic body ? Here : i.huffpost.com/gen/1470673/original.jpg
its amazing to see how much of the VA personality transfers/reflects on the Karlach companion. Samantha truly knocked it out of the park with this performance.
I'm glad you brought up the moment after you kill the paladins that were hunting Karlach, when she just goes absolutely apeshit, destroying everything and setting the house on fire. One of the few moments in the game that really caught me by surprise! I kept thinking "okay, she's had her little tantrum, now she's gonna calm down" but she just kept going and going. Such a great character moment.
First time I met Karlach I was about to get in a fight with her. I quicksave beforehand (as you usually do :D ), I start the fight and she says something in the lines of "I could have used a friend" or something. I immediately quickload and get her in my party. Almost 100 hours later, she's the best companion.
Karlach is my favorite character, she's a German shepherd: tough, protective yet sweet, adorable and just very caring. I just love the fact that she's the only party member that is liked by everyone else, Including Minthara. So thank you Samantha for bringing her to life the best way possible
It's great to listen to someone who's so knowledgeable and passionate about the gaming industry in general. I'm obsessed with Karlach character and her whole arc, and now with Sam, haha. She did amazing job bringing her to life. Hope to hear her in even more (rpg) games in the future!
The work was increduble on karlach - and we hope the cut content would be restored at some point - going into avernus and really do help her and what we can for our heart of gold could be great ! ❤ (All the line still exist in the cut content !)
I played the game when it still had the bug that got Dammon killed at the Last Light Inn, so it wasn't possible to save Karlach. What a job Samantha did on the scenes after killing Gortash!!! A completely unexpected smack round the back of the head with a +2 warhammer. Absolutely nailed the anguish and the pain of her impending death.
Karlach, is absolutely Perfectly imperfect. She reminds me of Xena the Warrior Princess. She's got her Zanny persona, ñ naturally beautiful thee way she is. Her Mood, is like so, what, let's kill, laugh, cry, dance, ñ drink Solger. Samantha is amazing, ñ I absolutely adore her Acting ethos. Thank you so much Samantha. Ñ @Gamingmadness For continually giving us interviews with the fantastic Actors we care to hear about, n we love. ❤️🩹⚔️🔶🔶🎭💀🗡️🗡️ 🏰✨BG³s❤️ 👩🏻🚀🐶🛡️❤️🩹🤘🏻
It is aways amazing to know a little more of the behind the scenes, Karlach was my go to romance from begining to end, and every interaction she is the most sweet and loving character, the whole team behind this game deserves a standing ovation, my first playthrough took 140h, and loved every second of it and I'm still finding new things about, just great and amazing job, the game and the interview
Incredible interview series :) big fan here from the USA. I watched your episodes on Lae'zel and Astarion too and they were fantastic. I didnt know you were in India! I love how TH-cam connects people around the world
It was smart asking her the question about how to be a voice actor or start in it. These kind of insiders advice things are super helpful. Thanks Abhi and Samantha for the segment!
She is my favorite NPC. Completely unexpected personality. Shadowheart turned out to be exactly what I thought, but I didn't see Karlach coming. Of course there was little Karlach content, she was not this funny in EA.
Karlach is my Favorite Companion in BG3 she is so sunny and happy to be around :) while playing now I am heading to get a second piece of Infernal Iron to heal her heart.
@@BehindTheVoicePod There is a certain moment when you become desperate because you don't see options in the dialogue, you know what part, I don't want to spoil, but I certainly despaired.

Like clearly asterion is fabulous asf and I love it he's my fav of all the origin characters by far but he owns it and everyone is better off for it if you get my drift. I just wish they had either pulled the trigger and let us know she use to be a man or that at least they used a mans body for the engine(which makes sense as it would be larger) or gave her real woman dimensions. We could havehad a charcter tha really spoke to the trans community and i suspect we were robbed of that. Not the va's fault obviously
Man's body? Ffs get a grip, there are huge muscular women who could roll you up into a little ball and throw you in a bin. Gwendoline Christie, actress, is 6'3 with wide shoulders... is she not a real woman to you? You people need to see a therapist.
I find it sad that you’re so wrapped up in whether she looks femme enough to be a love interest. I think everyone loves Karlach for the amazing personality that Samantha imbued into her character. He body is strong, sexy, and in no way reads “manly”. If you’re don’t like a muscular woman’s build, that’s one thing - but that doesn’t make her manly. In the end, it’s your loss. She’s a brilliant character/love interest.
When Gortash was killed Samantha's performance brought to to tears. Great Job!
It's amazing when you consider:

@@JamesMadisonsSpiritAnimal They also gave her a infernal metal heart but I guess that doesnt break your immersion... This isnt real life
@@JamesMadisonsSpiritAnimal Can't tell if baiting
@@JamesMadisonsSpiritAnimal she is female barbarian, of course she's going to be athletic. have you ever seen a female atheletic body ? Here : i.huffpost.com/gen/1470673/original.jpg
Karlach is my favorite character.
Yaa I really adore Karlach. She is so sweet and a total badass as you mentioned
its amazing to see how much of the VA personality transfers/reflects on the Karlach companion. Samantha truly knocked it out of the park with this performance.
Oh yaa absolutely!
@terranova6392I believe so, she has a partner anyway. How come?
I'm glad you brought up the moment after you kill the paladins that were hunting Karlach, when she just goes absolutely apeshit, destroying everything and setting the house on fire.

Such a great character moment.
Yaaa it really stood out to me atleast in the early moments
on my first run wyll died there because of fire damage
The way she whispered "Shadow-lach" when we were sneaking. It's too good, we all love her
For sure! Can't forget about her line "Halfling essence" either. 😂
First time I met Karlach I was about to get in a fight with her. I quicksave beforehand (as you usually do :D ), I start the fight and she says something in the lines of "I could have used a friend" or something. I immediately quickload and get her in my party.

haha I'm glad you did that. She is awesome
This chick talking about modding and data mining y'all, she's one of us. ❤
Karlach is best girl hands down
She is amazing
Momma K! by far my favourite.
Love how professional Samantha Béart is. Great interview.
Thank you so much for watching
Karlach is my favorite character, she's a German shepherd: tough, protective yet sweet, adorable and just very caring. I just love the fact that she's the only party member that is liked by everyone else, Including Minthara.
So thank you Samantha for bringing her to life the best way possible
Yaa even I love Karlach and you want to do everything you can to protect her
She's like a reacue dog that has a huge trauma, but still loves her new family
I loved all the characters, but I definitely didn't expect to like Karlach so much. Such a sweetheart. Samantha did great
Yaa I found Karlach really sweet
It's great to listen to someone who's so knowledgeable and passionate about the gaming industry in general. I'm obsessed with Karlach character and her whole arc, and now with Sam, haha. She did amazing job bringing her to life. Hope to hear her in even more (rpg) games in the future!
I hope to see her in other games too. She has done such a fabulous job
I’ve been playing video games for 45 years. Karlach is my favorite character ever. Love her to life.
That's so cool. I'm glad you like this character so much in your 45 years of playing games
The work was increduble on karlach - and we hope the cut content would be restored at some point - going into avernus and really do help her and what we can for our heart of gold could be great ! ❤ (All the line still exist in the cut content !)
Karlach has the vibes with highest rating in the game in my opinion. I would pick her to be in my party 10/10
I played the game when it still had the bug that got Dammon killed at the Last Light Inn, so it wasn't possible to save Karlach. What a job Samantha did on the scenes after killing Gortash!!! A completely unexpected smack round the back of the head with a +2 warhammer. Absolutely nailed the anguish and the pain of her impending death.
When you get the owl bear cub and Karlach loses her gourd, omg that was so awesome!
The interview with Karlach's voice actress dropped finally! Fuck, yes!
I hope you like it!
Karlach, is absolutely Perfectly imperfect.
She reminds me of Xena the Warrior Princess.
She's got her Zanny persona, ñ naturally beautiful thee way she is. Her Mood, is like so, what, let's kill, laugh, cry, dance, ñ drink Solger.

Hah she is!
Thanks for the interviews. ❤ And Samantha thank you for your work, I absolutely love Karlach, she is such a sweetheart.
Thank you so much for watching!
we really need Raphael VA. Very charismatic character! His final act is mind blowing
"How long did you stand around practicing THAT one...?"
"As long as it took to get it perfect!"
Haha
Wild Magic Wizard?
NO MORE NEGOTIATIONS!!!!!!! One of my favorite lines from raphael lol
Keep hoping.
Hope, what a tease😂

Karlarch is my favorite character in the game, in many ways, it is amazing that Miss Béart have the same awesome smile of the character.
She is def one of my fav characters in the game

YES!
Very good interview, thank you! Greetings from germany
Thank you so much for watching from Germany! That's awesome
Your interviews are great and I like the time stamps. You’ve got to talk to some really cool people!
Thank you so much. I appreciate it

Love that you are based in India -- such a rich history and culture, and world's largest democracy. Much respect!
Thank you so much! I appreciate that
Karlach is awesome
Yaa she def is
Let's go!!
7:00 - She may not be perfect, but she's extremely close!!!!
Great job with these interviews!
Thank you so much!!
I just got Karlach and ejected Lae'zel so quickly. I didn't think I would like her but per personality won me over completely.
It literally killed me to choose shadowheart, that's how lovable this chick was
Wow i didnt know india had such a cool pc gaming industry! Karlach had a lot of cut content i feel
Oh yaa India definitely has a strong gaming community.
Petition to retitle "KARLACH & GANG - A Baldur's Gate Adventure"
hahah I would sign that!
I made the choice of playing her, actually. Not regretting it at all.
Ohh that's cool! Unfortunately you won't hear her voice then , I think
I like the gremlin woman more but still Karlach is amazing.
How does a guy with not even 5k subs trick these brilliant people into interviews
Are you telling me that channels with millions of subscribers is deserving to have any actors from any game being interviewed?
So Karlach was a "player" back in the day huh? That's a scoop we haven't learned yet.
Samantha's not on Bluesky?
@@iLikeTheUDK she's in Twitter, I don't think she's in bluesky
Can she be the next commander Shepard?
Oh I would love her to be the commander shepard
