My first character was the Jedi Knight and knowing that its David Hayter just gives it a special touch to it. He may be my character but the voice will always be David's and Im glad he gave such a great performance.
David Hayter definitely deserves more recognition for his role as the Jedi Knight. I wish he had Jedi Knight prints on his streamily store because I would definitely buy that one for him to sign. He just does such a great job with this character. After 15 years, David deserves more attention on this role.
Typically speaking a lot more things in animation are mocapped than you realise, as hand animating such complex movements would take so long its not even funny
Funnily enough, as a huge SWTOR fan and not really a MGS fan, if I ever met David, I'd probably tell him I really appreciate his work as the Hero of Tython rather than mention Snake. But yeah, I still remember my shock when I heard some notes of Snake in the HoT's lines and realized it's David voicing him. He really did a fantastic job sounding different for this game.
Finding out before playing the game for the first time that David Hayter voiced the male Jedi Knight was the reason it was my first character and still my main to this day.
Thank you so much David for the years of work voicing the Jedi Knight and bringing the stories to life for so many players! The Jedi Knight was my first class and I've enjoyed hearing your voice for so many years.
Honestly I think it says a lot about his work and his acting that people genuinely connect his character to themselves instead of him. Even though it's his voice the whole time we are still able to think of that character as ourselves because he just does that good of a job
Never knew it was him but now I can’t not hear it. David Hayter is my childhood personified so that’s so freaking cool. Thank you sir for everything you’ve done! Including Guyver 2. 😊
David, I have left the Jedi Knight as my last class to play through. It is the most beloved experience thus far. I resonate so much with the Jedi Knight character and that is largely contributed to your performance good sir!
Honestly, if i ever had a chance to go and meet you all that voiced that game I would have. SWTOR is by far my favorite game of all time, and have played it for over a decade. Thank you all for the work you all put in to making the game.
I totally appreciate David for the Jedi voice in swtor. my main character has been the Jedi since the game launched. But i already appreciated him as Snake way before that. he is a legend for gamers like me.
I also remember him playing Captain America in the 90s Spiderman cartoon. And he was a screenwriter for the 2000 X-Men movie, and the Watchmen movie. Can we please get this man in a Star Wars movie or series?
Now that David mentions it, it has always been extremely weird how lackluster the engagement with SWTOR has always been. I mean, from what I understand, MMOs were a big thing back in the day and still have relatively large fan bases like with World of Warcraft and whatnot, and people used to get excited over pretty much anything Star Wars related, so why didn't it take off? I mean most normie SW fans didn't even know and arguably still don't know about what is happening in the trailers (which have become iconic in the community due to their sheer awesome) let alone anything about the game's story.
4:52 his character actually has a canon look in the trailers. All of the offical story trailers feature the same charactermodel since knights of the fallen empire.
Dope interview, love swtor and jedi knight will always be my main. Btw when he talks about the female jedi knight VA you play a clip of the sith inquisitor lol
My Jedi Knight genuinely originally looked like Solid Snake, then Big Boss when I updated him for KOTFE/KOTET because of David's voice. Heck, my JK even now has an eyepatch.
The perfect ending except don't let it distract you from the fact that Chewie didn't get his medal. But today I learned that George Lucas confirmed that they throw a celebration in Kashyyyk in his honour 😮
David, you'll probably never see this comment but I for one appreciate your voice acting for the Jedi Knight, I've been immersed in SWTOR since release back in 2011 when I was kid & i'm still immersed in it now at twenty four, the Jedi Knight is one of the best classes in the game & by far my personal favourite.
I don't it is because of the Jedi Knight's customization that David hasn't got much recognition for the role. I think it is because of the general lack of recognition for SWTOR. For some reason it just never took off with either Star Wars fans or RPG fans aside from some brief bursts of attention.
While the JK story wasn't my favorite out of the 8 class stories, I definitely enjoyed my time with it. David's performance in it was great! SWTOR in general is really underrated.
@5:52That is precisely why, bc you're the main character in the Old Republic which essentially is us, the ones who played. If you were in KOTOR and were the voice of Revan instead you would get the same kind of reposne as you do for Snake, trust me.
"The success of your mission depends on how you use that cardbostd box... Treat it with love... Don't be rough." I never played the Male Jedi - I had too much fun playing a Sith and a smuggler. I'll have to give it another go.
Having a hard time identifying the lightsaber model. Looks like a LGT mashup or Saberforge, but it could also be a custom saber. Seems to be running Proffie 2.2 though, with the motion control.
i have 729hrs in SWtoR but only ever played sith characters so i never got to see how david hayter did his jedi VO for swtor. its awesome how all of the story is voice acted consistently and feels appropriate to the scene its an rpg where you choose the tone of your response. while it is an mmo you can do all the story stuff solo and its not that difficult if you like starwars, go play swtor, its awesome, there's no woke nonsense, its just a good game
love the universe and the game, and for everything bad that can be said, there countless good things to find imo. so yeah... may the force be with you o/
Gamology you guys need to learn the difference between Solid Snake and Big Boss. Just like in the last video with David Hayter, you keep cutting to footage of BB when he mentions SS. Do some research ffs.
My first character was the Jedi Knight and knowing that its David Hayter just gives it a special touch to it. He may be my character but the voice will always be David's and Im glad he gave such a great performance.
Yep same here I remember playing it during beta and was like "That sounds like Solid Snake." :P Sure enough, it was David.
David Hayter definitely deserves more recognition for his role as the Jedi Knight. I wish he had Jedi Knight prints on his streamily store because I would definitely buy that one for him to sign. He just does such a great job with this character. After 15 years, David deserves more attention on this role.
He gets a regular fat paycheck. That's good attention.
@TheIrishRushin From fans lol
Thank you David Hayter for being my voice in star wars for the past decade.
11:08 Wait, they mocapped this!? I thought it was pure CGI but they actually mocapped that fight! That's so awesome!
It honestly makes Disney seem even worse. You’re telling me that with all their money and tech, they can’t do that?
Typically speaking a lot more things in animation are mocapped than you realise, as hand animating such complex movements would take so long its not even funny
@@Maria_Banks It's not that they can't, they just couldn't bother to actually try it.
The Jedi Knight is my main on SWTOR. He just makes the most sense for later story content. I love David Hayter's voice performance.
There is a reason why he is the one featured in all of the offical story trailers.
Funnily enough, as a huge SWTOR fan and not really a MGS fan, if I ever met David, I'd probably tell him I really appreciate his work as the Hero of Tython rather than mention Snake. But yeah, I still remember my shock when I heard some notes of Snake in the HoT's lines and realized it's David voicing him. He really did a fantastic job sounding different for this game.
I always think it's funny that the first person you meet on Tython is voiced by Cam Clarke who just so happens to be Liquid Snake.
It's criminal the people who made the vanilla game are no longer behind the wheel.
David Hayter might be the real reason swtor has the real possibility of coming to console after Mac 😂
The really first time I play swotor during the COVID and I play as a Jedi Knight. Then I keep hearing the voice until I realize.. it's snake. Wow.
Do I seriously have 200 hours playing as a Jedi Knight and never recognized the voice? I'm a fake fan
I didn't know either, and I played that game for years
Not just a fake fan, but a.....HAYTER
@@faye61 Snake ,Captain America ,Jedi Knight ,shit is gold!
iirc also the first person the jedi knight talks to in the og starting area was voiced by Liquid Snakes voice actor
Same, haha.
This is epic! Thanks for the upload.
Somewhere I knew that David Hayter was the Jedi Knight and he's one of my favorites. I loved all of the 8 character arcs in SWTOR.
With the game coming soon to Mac, I REALLY hope David plays and records his play through. Would love him to see the full picture!
Damn I wish this was bait, damn this is THE Solid snake
i have a solid snake after watching this video
When I met David Hayter, I specifically brought up the very first thing I ever encountered him in, "Guyver 2: Dark Hero". Such a fun movie. :D
Alongside some of the main examples from the Saga, I think David Hayter's performance is one of quintessential Jedi voices.
Finding out before playing the game for the first time that David Hayter voiced the male Jedi Knight was the reason it was my first character and still my main to this day.
Thank you so much David for the years of work voicing the Jedi Knight and bringing the stories to life for so many players! The Jedi Knight was my first class and I've enjoyed hearing your voice for so many years.
Thanks for this interview. Hero of Tython has a special place in my heart.
Honestly I think it says a lot about his work and his acting that people genuinely connect his character to themselves instead of him. Even though it's his voice the whole time we are still able to think of that character as ourselves because he just does that good of a job
SNAKE!
David does an amazing job as both a Light Side or Dark Side Jedi in his performance with the lines. Very well-delivered.
I forgot he played that character. I guess you could say it was a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
I didn't recognize him at first. But during battle, a very Snake's "AAAAAGH!" can be heard.
It made me look for him on IMDB and yes, it was him.
Never knew it was him but now I can’t not hear it. David Hayter is my childhood personified so that’s so freaking cool. Thank you sir for everything you’ve done! Including Guyver 2. 😊
David, I have left the Jedi Knight as my last class to play through. It is the most beloved experience thus far. I resonate so much with the Jedi Knight character and that is largely contributed to your performance good sir!
Honestly, if i ever had a chance to go and meet you all that voiced that game I would have. SWTOR is by far my favorite game of all time, and have played it for over a decade. Thank you all for the work you all put in to making the game.
I totally appreciate David for the Jedi voice in swtor. my main character has been the Jedi since the game launched. But i already appreciated him as Snake way before that. he is a legend for gamers like me.
The 2nd character I completed in SWTOR was a Jedi knight - I don't know how I ever missed that he also played Solid Snake.
I met both David Hayter and the Old Republic dev team / writers around the same year, and I had no idea he voiced one of the Jedis, haha. Small world.
I also remember him playing Captain America in the 90s Spiderman cartoon. And he was a screenwriter for the 2000 X-Men movie, and the Watchmen movie. Can we please get this man in a Star Wars movie or series?
When we finally hear it, I was like; "He sounds like Batman."
Now that David mentions it, it has always been extremely weird how lackluster the engagement with SWTOR has always been. I mean, from what I understand, MMOs were a big thing back in the day and still have relatively large fan bases like with World of Warcraft and whatnot, and people used to get excited over pretty much anything Star Wars related, so why didn't it take off? I mean most normie SW fans didn't even know and arguably still don't know about what is happening in the trailers (which have become iconic in the community due to their sheer awesome) let alone anything about the game's story.
4:52 his character actually has a canon look in the trailers. All of the offical story trailers feature the same charactermodel since knights of the fallen empire.
I didn't even realize it was him voicing the male Jedi Knight until I heard him repeat back someone's question, then it clicked.
The time has come.....to realize that David Hayter was our character these many years.
Dope interview, love swtor and jedi knight will always be my main. Btw when he talks about the female jedi knight VA you play a clip of the sith inquisitor lol
Someone tell him they are almost done with the Mac client to play SWTOR on Mac...Now, he can play the game.
Meanwhile I hope for it to cone to console
My Jedi Knight genuinely originally looked like Solid Snake, then Big Boss when I updated him for KOTFE/KOTET because of David's voice. Heck, my JK even now has an eyepatch.
The perfect ending except don't let it distract you from the fact that Chewie didn't get his medal. But today I learned that George Lucas confirmed that they throw a celebration in Kashyyyk in his honour 😮
He also said Wookies don't accept materialistic things like metals
I was hoping to see more of a reaction to the actual game as described by the title of the video. Either way, good interview, I love David.
I played the Jedi Knight first snd immediately recognized the voice. It was awesome.
Oh this is what i needed to see! David hatyter being in a Star Wars game
So David _was_ a Jedi after all.
I thought that he would go full "screenwriter mode" on the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy or something. _But that'll do._
I like the voice, it feels so confident too, like the character should do, he's the Hero of Tython and all :D
Playing Jedi Knight story in SWTOR in 2013 was a peak gaming experience.
The only time Hayte leads to happiness lol
Ok, seems the editor had difficulty telling Kari Wahlgren and Xanthe Elbrick apart. Oops? 😅
Leia: "Darth Vader... Only you could be so BALD."
*Darth Vader swipes and wipes Leia*
David, you'll probably never see this comment but I for one appreciate your voice acting for the Jedi Knight, I've been immersed in SWTOR since release back in 2011 when I was kid & i'm still immersed in it now at twenty four, the Jedi Knight is one of the best classes in the game & by far my personal favourite.
Rather than "Reacts to" seems more like "Gets Interviewed about", not that I mind that. It was a nice interview after all.
I don't it is because of the Jedi Knight's customization that David hasn't got much recognition for the role. I think it is because of the general lack of recognition for SWTOR. For some reason it just never took off with either Star Wars fans or RPG fans aside from some brief bursts of attention.
By the time you get to the final battle in the JK story....lets just say I had Duel of the Fates blasting in my computer.
i have a solid snake after watching this video
I caught the edit. The line is, "No, I am your father."
While the JK story wasn't my favorite out of the 8 class stories, I definitely enjoyed my time with it. David's performance in it was great! SWTOR in general is really underrated.
I'm glad people still remember this game. The graphics and ganeplay wasn't the best but there's just so much charm of this game's characters and story
Um they have updated it, and it's getting an even bigger one in the beginning of December.
Someone tell David Hayter that swtor is coming to mac!
“Really kept us waiting huh?”
- Kept us waiting, you have.
- Huh?
- _Speak this way, I always do._
dude my first character was a jedi sentinel this is actually awesome.
Unless the voice actor for the femquisitor is the same as the femknight, the editor Clearly didnt play or do his research when getting the clips
The female Sith Inquisitor is voiced by Xanthe Elbrick so yes whoever edited this video made a mistake there.
wait david hayter is voice actor in kotor holy shit big boss/solid snake is in star wars
i wish they could show the BTS of Stwor mocap, the fight scenes was the highlight of the vids
@5:52That is precisely why, bc you're the main character in the Old Republic which essentially is us, the ones who played. If you were in KOTOR and were the voice of Revan instead you would get the same kind of reposne as you do for Snake, trust me.
9:18 wrong character clip, that's not a jedi...
He should be in the actual movies too
"The success of your mission depends on how you use that cardbostd box... Treat it with love... Don't be rough."
I never played the Male Jedi - I had too much fun playing a Sith and a smuggler. I'll have to give it another go.
Snake as a jedi would be awesome
Having a hard time identifying the lightsaber model. Looks like a LGT mashup or Saberforge, but it could also be a custom saber. Seems to be running Proffie 2.2 though, with the motion control.
I knew it was him and enjoyed feeling kinda snaky as a Jedi Knight hahaha
It's funny, I am downloading the game again to run through it again and I wasn't sure which class I wanted to play.
Decision made.
had no clue it was Hayter since I just a few years ago got into MGS5 but played the hell out of Old Republic Online yeah so much cooler now knowing
One of the best MMORPG ever. I love SWTOR.
Wow, I hate myself for not knowing this! I feel like I'm the only person who didn't know. But it explains why I love the male Jedi so much!
Really had no idea he was in this game and I play constantly. Gonna go make a jedi knight now
Let's bring up the Jedi player character at cons David Hayter appears at
I always enjoy the Jedi knights it’s the classic heroes journey.
I wish swtor got more money. This MMO could have been so much better. Great story and very strong community.
No idea you voiced the old republic. I was invited into the beta, of course i said yes
Miller: Snake, snaaaaaaaaaaake!!
SWTOR is easily one of the best mmos ever made
Can't wait 🔥
9:20 to my ear that sounds a lot like Xanthe Elbrick, voice of the female Sith Inquisitor
i have 729hrs in SWtoR but only ever played sith characters so i never got to see how david hayter did his jedi VO for swtor.
its awesome how all of the story is voice acted consistently and feels appropriate to the scene
its an rpg where you choose the tone of your response. while it is an mmo you can do all the story stuff solo and its not that difficult
if you like starwars, go play swtor, its awesome, there's no woke nonsense, its just a good game
same, sith main is just better
I had no idea. I might have bought TOR. 😢
Honestly, "you are literal Superman" is fantastic voice direction for a Jedi Knight. 🦸🏼
He is the Guyver to me.
My main character on SWTOR!!!!!!
After over 200 hours spent on the game I discovered that David Hayter is the voice of one of the characters you can create
love the universe and the game, and for everything bad that can be said, there countless good things to find imo. so yeah... may the force be with you o/
13:30 the Mac client is coming! They are in testing right now!
Maybe someone should tell him they are working on the MAC version... coming soon (tm)
SWTOR is on Mac, so he can actually play it now
Someone get this man a PC and tell him to stop messing around so he can play the freaking game 😆
NO THAT IS NOT SOLID SNAKE 5:05
*shows naked snake* "solid snake" tale as old as time...
5:02 i dont think Gamology are actually gamers
Gamology you guys need to learn the difference between Solid Snake and Big Boss. Just like in the last video with David Hayter, you keep cutting to footage of BB when he mentions SS. Do some research ffs.
Every voice actor and actress killed their role in swtor and continue to do so.
That's cool asf
yfw James Arnold Taylor probably beat this man in recognition in the Star Wars franchise.
