I’ve been replaying a lot of the classics recently, and just like with Combs when I rewatch a Star Trek series, I keep finding myself saying “fuck, that’s him too?”

Playing Fallout, there’s Jim as the main voice of The Master.

Playing the original Baldur’s Gate trilogy, there’s Jim as Minsc, Gorion, Mulahey, and a bunch of other people.

Taking a break to test out some character builds in Icewind Dale? Fuck me, there’s Jim as Hrothgar.

Like I know he’s one of the most prolific voice actors, especially of that era, but I didn’t realize how entwined he was with that specific genre.

    There was some military strategy game which was voiced by Will Wheaton. I remember you had to control the characters with voice command, and that was a very new and novel idea and so when playing online people forgot that that meant that you could hear what orders they were giving their units.
