I remember her name first from being Madeleine Buthane in Gabriel Knight 3. Also Fall-From-Grace and Deionarra in Planescape: Torment but those very important roles were pretty small, on the account of game not being fully voiced.
100% Karlach was my garrus in BG3. Also I definitely relate with what she said on romancing garrus but for Karlach. I like her a lot but I usually can't romance her because I kinda see her more as a best bro lol. For that reason, I always choose to go to Avernus with her to go kick Zariel's ass.
Jennifer Hale is an icon; I can easily see Samantha Beart going that route for a new generation. She's also super amazing, can't wait to get into more of her work.
Karlach is such a great actor, and the animators did a great job with this Samantha character - it almost looks like she's real. The lip sync is great too - I mean I can hear that it's Karlach, but It ALMOST looks like the Samantha character is the one doing the talking, not Karlach back stage. Great work all around BTW as many probably know, Jennifer Hale was only paid $1200 to play Naomi Hunter in MGS, and the industry hasn't gotten much better in the past few decades. PAY THESE ACTORS MORE MONEY PLEASE THANK YOU
I didn't realize at the time, but I have heard Jennifer Hale already since the 90's in the Spiderman animated show and apparently in a lot more then I realized after a quick filmography check. Having said that, Samantha Béart did an amazing job as Karlach. Great story, great performance and it is fun to see her and the rest of the cast getting into D&D ^^
Finished BG3 about a month ago and said that Karlach was my favorite RPG companion since Garrus and that they now make up half of my Mt. Rushmore of RPG squadmates and boy the vindication I felt hearing this from Samantha
Jennifer Hale was the first video game voice actor I began to recognize. - many firsts. - Star Wars KOTOR 2004 - (Bastila Shan) my first actual RPG - some Freeze character from some DC cartoons. - Mass Effect series and my favorite game series of all time.
She was Dr Naomi in Metal Gear Solid. I had heard her in Baldurs Gate 2, but it was only with Naomi and Bastila that I started to really pay attention.
The first two Baldur's Gates were when I really started to pay attention to voice actors, and she voiced both Dynaheir in BG1 and Mazzy in BG2, in 2 very different voices and accents. Grey Delisle (Azule of Avatar the Last Airbender) also voices 2 different NPCs in the same game (Viconia in both games, Skie in BG1 and Nalia in BG2) and both have very different voices, it's honestly really impressive.
Karlach was definitely the Garrus of my first play thru, the homie fr. Which is why it scarred me for life when I beheaded her on my evil playthru lmao 😭
Jennifer Hale is amazing. And shes like EVERYWHERE. You keep a little bit of renegade points fornwhen you need to push certain people off a "about to become a window"
Wasn't there a law a while back that 'Jennifer Hale had to be in everything'? 😋 I don't play many games outside of the Sci-Fi genre, but at the time J. Hale was prolific.
OMG Karlach being BG3's Garrus absolutely fits.
For me somewhere between Garrus and Wrex.
The first time I encountered the work of Jennifer Hale was in Baldur's Gate II when she voiced Mazzy Fentan.
Then shortly after, she was Bastila Shan in KotOR.
if you like story games like BG3, i highly recommend mass effect if you can stomach shooters at all.

@@Necroblas She was Grace and Deionarra?! Wow.

Samantha is incredibly talented (and also a lovely human!)

I’m loving this connection between my favorite game series of all time (Mass Effect) and my most recent gaming obsession (BG3)

She's also the voice of the female Trooper class in Swtor. I started to play Mass Effect after I realised she was also Shep

Karlach is my favorite character. Her design, her movements, her voice
We ❤️ Karlach!
Garrus indeed was the homeboy. Never left my team except for ME2 suicide mission since of course he was the only one I trusted to lead B team.
B team couldn't be in safer hands
CRYING I LOVE KARLACH AND MASS EFFECT
Samantha Thank you for Karlach, absolutely amazing performance
Samantha is such a cool person. Every video that they're on that I've seen are so amazing
Paperboy in the background, jesus I loved that game back in the day.
Karlach was definitely the Garrus of my first play thru, the homie fr. Which is why it scarred me for life when I beheaded her on my evil playthru lmao 😭
Wow this comment took an unexpected turn
How do we get Samantha cast in Mass Effect 5?
No thanks. I'd rather have her be in a good game. Not whatever crap the husk of BioWare will put out for the rEApers.
They deserve better than that
Since she briefly mentioned FF7, let’s get her cast for FF7 Remake Part 3 as well! 😊
Mass Effect 2 was literally my favorite game of all FUCKING time!!
Garrus is the best romance in the trilogy and Karlach is my favorite romance in BG3
He is not though.
Best Mass Effect romance is Jack without a doubt.
Followed by Tali and Liara.
I couldn't stop comparing BG3 to the Mass Effect trilogy and this adds to my hyperfixation!
Jennifer Hale is amazing. And shes like EVERYWHERE.
You keep a little bit of renegade points fornwhen you need to push certain people off a "about to become a window"
Her list of appearances is nuts. Definitely in that S-Tier of voice actors
Garrus ❤
Garrus was the OG
„Not everyone romances Karlach“, but I did. How can you not.
Not gonna lie, i wanted to try to romance karlach but by the time i could she was my best friend and my sister. So she was both my garrus and Tali
oh shit, Karlach IS Garrus, isnt she?!
I want the Navi Shirt.
Karlach and Garrus dream team
The real Mama K is awesome.
Bastila-Mazzy-Shepard
J Hale is legend
Those shoes are 100% Karlach
Wasn't there a law a while back that 'Jennifer Hale had to be in everything'?
😋
I don't play many games outside of the Sci-Fi genre, but at the time J. Hale was prolific.
A woman of many, many talents
🔥🔥
