    Hi Jennifer and Aliona. I wanted to express my deep gratitude to Jen for her work voicing Shadowheart. When I first started playing Baldurs gate, I thought “oh no, this character is not for me,” but once I heard her voice, that’s it! The way you voiced her made me want to know the character better, her story and herself. In general, I fell in love with this game thanks to your voice - you did it very cool. Sorry, I don’t speak English as well as Aliona. I'm Russian from Germany😉

    Hey guys, I'm so glad to see you all getting the recognition you deserve for this. The game is spiralling out of control in the best possible way and becoming like a big lovely welcoming community! As a basically boring cis man, it's also nice to see so many non-men getting involved and feeling obviously quite safe and comfortable to express themselves through the game on the forums, pages and so on. This is sadly quite rare! I really hope this gives you all a mega career boost because you are so talented, from the writing, direction to performances, you ooze authenticity, talent and class! Ride the wave! Big hugs

    Dear Aliona!
    I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing these Q&As and the gaming vid.
    After going through a masterpiece (Baldurs Gate 3 is one for sure in every layer, even though turn-based combat is not my thing) i get obsessed with characters, story, music - cant and dont want to get it out of my head.
    Thats how I eventually found your channel. I watched other content with Jennifer as well - however it seems to me that she truly blooms when you are together.
    You both are extremely gorgeous, intelligent, sweet, creative and you were integral part of a team, that gave birth to legendary piece of art that will remain in people hearts, on pcs and in history.
    Watching you without interfering with your life and without stealing your time is such a gift and a treat. I believe that the most important thing in life is love - and every second of your Q&As are full of it. When artists share stories and thoughts of their creations - it is blessing for sure. Also I'm learning how a relationship should look like) I believe alot of people really appreciate your streams and are very grateful.
    Also, knowing a small tiny bit about your roots and seeing all the amazing qualities you radiate gives me hope, that one nation that currently seems very very lost still has hope.
    Best wishes and love.
    P.S. Funny thing is that we share a Surname) Not writing in native language for the same reason you have spoken about on stream) Also yours and Jennifer's characters in the BG3 playthrough are very beautiful and have some visual similarities with their creators)

    23:07... Hi. I'm an Italian girl and my girlfriend, who studies psychology, always told me I might have ADHD. Now, listening to you talking about it has made me question myself for real. I do have invented a trend for my social pages which is RadioTesta, which means HeadRadio. I usually have songs pop up in my head in the most absurd moments. Like the first time I kissed my girlfriend it was 2020 and Exist for Love of Aurora pop up to my head and when she was not looking I was like shaking my head because it was so distracting... It was even hard to explain how much to her later and she was like "do you... have ADHD, possibly?" and I was like "what? I... no... or yes? I don't know, how does it work?" while starting to do one thing, stop it and starting another one and freezing myself to think and she was like "yep, like that"
