Troy Baker and Nolan North: the dynamic duo of video game voice acting. Baker is an exceptional actor with 325 role𝄹s under his belt, according to . He can succeed in any role from the chaotic villain t🦋o the cocky hero. The popular voice actor is first on call for almost every role and he always delivers.
He also has a deep love for games, which is evidenced through his💧 YouTube channel. For such a celebrity in the video game industry, it is difficult to narrow down his roles to ten. There are so many Troy Baker characters out there but these are the most famous and most well done.
10 Delsin Rowe - Infam🦂ous: Second Son 🤪
Baker has the perfect voice for this punk, cocky superhero. Delsin Rowe is the main protagonist of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Infamous: Second Son. He can absorb powers giving him a vast away of unique abilities including smoke, neon, video and concrete. Baker hit his personality right on and gave an emotional performance. Rowe may be a ♔bit annoying but he is a deep character that goes through many emotionally difficult situations. This is when Baker gets to shine making Rowe a worthy successor to the electrically charged Cole Macgrath. This role fits Baker's skills perfectly but these next entries really show his range as an actor.
9 Arkham Knight - Batman Arkham Knight 💦
Baker is no stranger from the universe. He has played many roles in the Arkham games including Two-Face and several of Batman's sidekicks. Arkham Knight, the titular villain from the third Arkham game, is a skilled combatanဣt with a dark past. Baker does an excellent job of portraying the Arkham Knight's sheer determination for revenge. He gives the character a confident voice with a hint of despair, which perfectly fits his backstory. The Arkham Knight shows that Baker can take on a serious character as well as his more lighthearted roles.
8 Ocelot - Metal Gear Solid V: 🅠The Phantom Pain
This is a rather intimidating role with Baker jumping right into an established character for the series. Baker had big boots to fill when he took on the role of the revolver specialist and expert interrogator. Ocelot was once an enemy but is now a valued companion of Snake in The Phantom Pain. Baker did a great job of portraying a midd꧅le-aged Ocelot, older than MGS3 Ocelot but younger than MGS1 Ocelot. His acting also fits the established🅠 voice of the character, which must have been a difficult task.
7 Higgs - Death St﷽randing
Baker takes a shot at a villain in another Hideo Kojima game. Higgs is an over the top villain who can control the Beached Things, beings that are trapped between death and the l🍒iving. Higgs loves to break the fourth wall and lick his enemies in the face. He is a chaotic loudmouth and Baker voices him perfectly.
Sure, he has a weird southern twang but it makes the character even more strange. Exactly what Kojima wanted. This is a recent entry, with Death Stranding c💮oming out in 2019, but the character is sure to go d🌌own in history thanks to the over the top performance.
6 Kanji T🌟atsumi - Persona 4
Baker does a lot of voice work for Japanese mediums. He is most famous for the English voices of Greed in Full Metal Alchemist and Pain from Naruto Shippuden. He also dabbled in Japanese video games such as Persona 4. Kanji Tatsumi is a main character and part of the Investigation Team in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Persona 4. Baker copies his Greed voice for this role but gets a lot of 🧸credit for voicing both Kanj🅰i and his shadow. He provides a dramatic performance that mixes comedy and sympathy.
5 🎉 Pag𓃲an Minn - Far Cry 4
has been trying to establish great villains ever since the iconic Vaas Montenegro from Far Cry 3. Pagan Minn is the closest they've gotten. Baker took the more calm and collected approach as compared to Vaas' chaotic, may I say insane, nature. The voice actor does a good job of making the villain intimidating by his intense yet psychotic delivery. Minn was a scary and fitting antagonist for the Far Cry series. No one may never li🍃ve up to Michael Mando's Vaas but Troy Baker came very close.
4 📖 Sam Drake - Uncharꦰted 4: A Thief's End
Sam Drake, the long lost brother of Nathan Drake who drags his little brother back into the treasure hunting business, is a ཧgreat addition to Uncharted. Naughty Dog games are the closest that voice actors get to movie acting. The mocap stage and heavy emphasis on story means that actors have to give it their all.
Baker delivers and his characters fits right into the established cast of the Uncharted series. His performance makes for an emotional journey between the Drake brothers with several twists and turns. Baker pulls off the s💛cheming, slightly annoying attitude of Sam, which helps to drive the story forward. Also, he's got the grunting down.
3 Bruce Wayne - Batman: The T😼ellta𓄧le Series
Baker gets tons of props for taking on a role that is far outside of his comfort zone. The monotone, serious Bruce Wayne is far different from his more enthusiastic roles. There was a lot riding on this performance. First of all, actors are almost sacred and second of all, the whole game depended on his performance. Telltale's Batman, being a narrative experience, would fall apart if Batman did not sound right. Baker ended up doing an excellent Bruce Wayne/Batman, solidifying him as one the 💧best voice actors out there.
2 🐓 The Joker - Batman Arkham Origins
If one character is more sacred than Batman then it has to be the Joker. Some truly iconic actors have played ꦑthe Joker, the biggest being Heath Ledger, Joaquin Phoenix, and Mark Hamill. The latter delivered his much-celebrated 🦋Joker performance for the Arkham games but was not available for Arkham Origins, a prequel game. Troy Baker jumped in to take over Hamill's role, some big shoes to fill. Baker pulled it off once again, almost mimicking Hamill's performance. You would have never thought he never left.
1 🧔 🍨 Joel - The Last of Us
Baker does a nearly perfect job as Joel. His gruntled voice shows someone who has lost so much but still holds on to hope. Joel's hardened exterior softens as he starts caring more and more about Ellie. Baker does an excellent job of bringing the script to life through his heartfelt performance. It's Baker's and Ashley Johnson's (Ellie) performance that helps to make The Last of Us one ▨of the greatest vi🧔deo game stories ever told. We can't wait to see them return for the sequel and give it their all once again.
