Ashly Burch gets into bed with puppets to talk about mental health


Eurogamer chats with Ashly Burch about her new show I'm Happy You're Here, which focuses on adult mental health and stars puppets.

Burch is known to many for her video game roles: Aloy from Guerrilla's Horizon series, Chloe Price in Life is Strange, Borderlands' Tiny Tina, The Last of Us Part 2's Mel. She recalls an old home video of her walking around with an unplugged NES controller in her hands, joking with me that she looked like the security blanket toting Linus from the Peanuts comic strips. Burch reflects on one of her first major roles as Chloe Price in Life is Strange, a game that years later still sparks debate and conversation (did you save bae or bay?!).
