Troy Baker

Troy Baker

Birth Place: Dallas, Texas, USA
Date Of Birth: Apr 1, 1976
Voice Over Language: English

Trivia & Fun Facts:

Auditioned for the role of Kyoya Otori in Ouran High School Host Club and would've got the role, but due to a busy schedule he was unable to work on the show. The role eventually went to J. Michael Tatum. Says Tatum did a better job then he ever could've done.

Quotes:

(on Kanji from Persona 4)
"Kanji is far and away one of the most intriguing characters I've ever played. The approach that Atlus wanted to take was a very specific one and we spent the majority of our first session and a good deal of subsequent ones... discussing 'who kanji was' rather than just 'how does this line sound'. They were incredibly patient and gracious, open to ideas and more than anything we had fun with it. There was a delicate balance between the humor and the pathos to Kanji that at times was a very precarious line to walk. We didn't want to push it too far, for fear of Kanji becoming comic relief, rather than a plot moving element with a stupendous character arc. What has amazed me more than anything is how fans have latched onto Kanji. The way they've identified with him has been humbling and incredibly interesting to observe. It further proves my belief that games aren't just entertainment, but viable venues for social commentary and an interactive experience that challenges our ideas, philosophies and perspectives on the human condition."

@solidejake Oh man, I'd hit that button.... & I now just realized how wrong that sounded once I said it out loud. Either way, you get what I'm trying to say.

The thing about Troy Baker here is that it takes me about 10 minutes to figure out it's his voice. But strange enough, I can't get enough of him O.O

It's very impressive how Troy's been getting so many big roles in high-profile games lately. Congratulations, mate! When I'm a VA, I'd be dying to be in his shoes...

@NCZ I even thought of him to be a cool K' from King of Fighters.

Agreed. Troy Baker is a far better Greed than Patton ever was.

If only he could go back in time and re-record fma-1. he is such a breath of fresh air with Greed. Chris sounded too unrealistic and bored...Troy is much much better. he's no Junpei but...he's still better than Patton. He actually sounds interested in playing the part.

Troy Baker's Greed is excellent. He's bringing out a lot more of Greed's arrogant, jaunty personality than the previous VA. He should have been Greed in the first series, too. I'm glad my favorite FMA character has a fitting voice now.

I heard he will voice Doctor Doom in The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (2010).
I think he will definetly own that part.

Funimation has taken quite a huge risk casting Troy Baker as Greed 2 in Brotherhood..lets be honest here he is no Chris Patton..what I've heard from him so far as Greed 2 in Brotherhood has indeed been good..but I won't be able to fully give my full opinion on his performance until I see more of it..but its going to be a long wait considering part 4 of Brotherhood doesn't come out until March 29th..I'm very curious to see how he will handle the dramatic parts of Greed 2..Chris was able to really bring out a great deal of style & attitude in his performance as Greed..I'm hoping Troy can do the same..only time will tell.

Seems Troy is becoming quite the voice actor. Dubbing anime, voicing in video games and prelay shows.
