So... Wait... Does that mean Harrison didn't take the job because he thought nobody would be as good as him? πŸ€”

I think the joke is more that Ford is worried about job security because Baker's performance was that good.

He actually did. I can barely tell it's not Ford doing the voice acting.

I absolutely wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t known.

SkillUp alleged that apparently the devs giving Troy Baker VA direction told him to sound a little less like Ford, potentially for copyright reasons.

That photos shopped. Here’s the real one!

Who's Troy Baker? Was he one of the Doctor Whos?

[–] Zahille7 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You've most likely heard him in just about every game from 2009-2014

Oh I stopped playing any games made after 2008, those Icelandic volcanoes really did my bank in

You're thinking of Tom Baker.

Gerry Rafferty's most famous song?

Oh the guy who was Doctor Who from 1984-1986?

He’s The Last of Us!

Troy Baker got Travis Willingham to pass on the gig and then ended up taking the gig himself. πŸ˜‚

Probably did a better job than Harrison could have. He's old and tired

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

He did a great job!

Holy crap Todd is so mini!

Scott Hamill had no career to speak of after Star Wars, which probably explains his voice acting proclivity. Ford had no such problems.

Edit: derp. Mark Hamill.
