Fandom was a mistake.
Resident Evil’s recurring corporate spy Ada Wong has been portrayed by multiple voice actors over the years, and in the recent RE4 remake was played by Lily Gao, who previously had a cameo as Ada in the live-action movie Welcome to Raccoon City. Her performance in RE4 hasn’t been well-received by fans, who filled her Instagram comments with insults. Gao disabled comments on her account, and then either hid or deleted all of her posts except one.
You can see screenshots of some of those over-the-top comments (opens in new tab) on Twitter, tantrums in text form like, «You ruined the remake, i feel like i just wasted my money» and «Your voice acting was horrible in the re4remake… it sounded super stiff and there was nothing seductive about it? It didnt fit at all omfg i hope they dont hire you as adas voice actor for another game».
