    So… Wait… Does that mean Harrison didn’t take the job because he thought nobody would be as good as him? 🤔

      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.

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

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

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

    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.
