Troy Baker – Playing The Last of Us for the first time was 'like a deathbed moment'
After being handed his copy at the launch party, he and Johnson played it as soon as possible. He said that he’ll never forget seeing the Naughty Dog logo appearing on screen before fading to black, and then seeing his own name.
“As a gamer and as an actor,” he said he just wanted to “be in a Naughty Dog game.” He didn’t even have high expectations. Baker said that he would have been happy to be a redshirt that Nathan Drake killed on his adventures.
But to be in a game like that, he emphasised, changed his life and he said that Johnson will forever be in his heart.
Troy Baker’s work can currently be heard in Batman: Arkham Knight where he plays a range of characters including the Arkham Knight.
