Another said, “Great now when Separate Ways [DLC] comes out I have to put it on mute. Worst voice acting I have heard in years. Why Capcom hired you instead of the past actress is beyond me”.

Several netizens have since come out in defense of Lily Gao, condemning those that have sent her harassment.

Just leave her alone”.

Retro Gaming Podcast Retro Blast likewise commented that “the harassment of Lily Gao by RESIDENT EVIL fans is horrible. She’s a human being. If you didn’t like her Ada performance, fine, but attacking the actress is ridiculous and I’m extremely disappointed to be a part of this fanbase today. Be better and touch some grass”.
