Comment on Man, seems like Jim Cummings is to classic CRPGs as Jeffrey Combs is to Star Trek.

Jeffrey Combs was also in DOTA: Dragon’s Blood, and that series’s cast was a fun synthesis of video game voice actor luminaries plus Star Trek alumni (Michael Dorn, John de Lancie, Anson Mount, Andrew Robinson and more).
But yeah, really that whole late 90’s/early 2000’s gaming era had some genuinely performances from actors of different media. I still think about David Warner in Baldur’s Gate 2 from time to time.

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 went playing online people forgot that that meant that you could hear what orders they were giving their units.
