Lily Gao, who voiced Ada Wong in the recently released Resident Evil 4 remake, disabled comments and wiped her entire Instagram account following outrage from fans. After being berated by angry fans who were seemingly displeased with Gao's performance as Ada Wong in the Resident Evil 4 remake, the voice actor was forced to take the drastic measure.

While the remake is being heralded by many as one of the best Resident Evil entries in recent times and a benchmark for modern survival-horror games, the awful treatment of the voice actor behind Ada Wong by some "fans" has left a major stain on the game's image.

The corporate spy and mercenary for hire, Ada Wong, is a returning character in the Resident Evil series and has been voiced by multiple artists throughout the franchise's history.

Lily Gao has previously played the role of Ada Wong in the live-action movie, Welcome to Racoon City, which made her the perfect choice to play the role of the enigmatic mercenary in the recently released Resident Evil 4 remake.

However, some fans felt quite displeased with Lily Gao's performance in the Resident Evil 4 remake, so much so that they vented their aggression on the actor's social media posts, hurling insults at her and her work. In the days following the game's release, she was constantly berated by fans who found her performance as Ada Wong to be way less energetic than past actors and also lacking the charisma and charm that the character is known for.

The hateful response from fans eventually led to the voice actor deactivating replies and comments on her Instagram posts, before outright deleting all her posts from the social platform. As of writing this article, Gao's Instagram account is still live and has more than 30 thousand
