Everyone's favorite Baldur's Gate 3 companion gets a chaotic playthrough from their own actor: "Let's set fire to everything!"
The voice behind everyone's favorite Baldur's Gate 3 companion is currently playing through the game as themselves, and it's as chaotic as you can imagine.
Samantha Béart, who provided both the voice and motion capture for Karlach, has been playing through Baldur's Gate 3 as her own character - and it's hilarious to watch.

My personal favorite quip from Béart is when they reply to something Karlach says in-game before adding "...oh god, I'm talking to myself."

Aw, so cute," and later adding "Oh, you are cute," to the walking organ. Honestly, same.
Béart's playthrough is such a delight to watch, and it's not just us that think so: "We gotta get you a new mic and a Twitch channel this is awesome," one fan replied. "'I'M IN A VIDEO GAME' took me out immediately," another
