Baldur's Gate 3 Shadowheart actor says Hades has become a comfort game, though she's "too bad" to get into Hollow Knight: Silksong

Jennifer English – the actor behind Baldur's Gate 3's Shadowheart and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's Maelle – says Hades is a comfort game, but would need an easy mode to get into Silksong.

Speaking to Radio Times Gaming, English was asked about her history with video games, and whether it's something she was always into before acting in them. English recalled "I played games as a kid [and I] was kind of banned from the PlayStation cause I would play Soul Blade and get really violent afterwards with my poor sibling." She also shouts out the likes of Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, and The Sims, with which she "would hyperfocus for hours on end" and says she won't dare to "play it again, because I know what would happen." However, after that she "just didn't really play" until she "got into games again playing my own game."
