Yeah, I saw that too.  I mean, for one thing, it's a story, and things happen in stories you're not going to like, that's why they happen, to add tension and stuff.  I mean, look at the last two Harry Potter books, or Game of Thrones.  People, especially main characters, are not immortal.  Secondly, just because a character she plays does something, doesn't mean she herself did it.  A VA only voices the characters, it's the writers and directors that make that stuff happen.  How much do you want to bet the people sending these death threats are children who shouldn't even be playing the game in the first place, because their parent's aren't informed enough to know these aren't for children, that videogames are always meant for children.
