Troy Baker Revealed As ARKHAM KNIGHT Voice And Why It's Suspicious

After watching the Batman: Arkham Knight Ace Chemicals Trailer Part 1, the Arkham Knight's voice has been clearly revealed to be done by Troy Baker. The only problem with Baker being the voice of the Arkham Knight is how suspicious it is to have someone like him who was already reprising his role as Two Face from Arkham City to voice another major character in the fourth Arkham game and why. To understand why it's an issue, please read the information below.

After 2 months since the leaked Gamescon footage to Batman Arkham Knight was leaked, the Arkham Knight was rumored to be voiced by James Horan, the actor who voiced Jack Ryder in the previous Arkham games, but now that the most recent trailer to the game had been released on Monday November 24th, the Arkham Knight's voice is now clarified to be Troy Baker's. Whatever reason Rocksteady or the game's casting director has for having Troy Baker voice Arkham Knight when he is already reprising his role as Two Face, it can't be good. Other than how lame it is for one person to have more than one major role in a certain game or show, the only reason why Troy Baker's voice as the Arkham Knight is a bad sign is because it brings about the suspicion that Rocksteady might end up spoiling/ruining all the fun in the game by making the villain's true end up being the one that the previous Arkham games have been so heavily focused on since the first one in 2009;

The Joker



Yeah surely it was okay for Joker to be the main villain in Batman Arkham Asylum, but since Arkham City of how his rivalry with Batman ends after having him poisoned throughout most of the game and because of the plot twist that Eric Holmes and Montreal did that made Joker the game's real main antagonist all just by making him impersonate Black Mask and be the one that hired the assassins all because of the fact that the Joker is Batman's archenemy that Holmes and his Montreal workers felt that it wouldn't be enough for the clown prince of crime to start off as one of the eight assassins hired by Black Mask or as a lower rank criminal currently rising further to greater power that because they had to make Batman's first encounter with Joker heavily dramatic by making him steal the show from Black Mask by impersonating him and doing what the game's synopsis said that Black Mask was to be doing in the game, the Arkham Franchise is becoming more Joker heavy that if the people in charge of Rocksteady game development are purposely lying to us about Scarecrow being the main antagonist in Arkham Knight by making Joker come back from the dead by revealing to have impersonated Scarecrow, then that would definately cause a huge proplem for fans, but surely since Scarecrow is one of Batman's most popular enemies and that he did survive his encounter with Killer Croc in Arkham Asylum and had been absent in Arkham City planning his revenge against Batman and that with Joker dead and that Scarecrow is teaming Harley Quinn up with him and two of the clown's arkham city gang leader rivals Penguin and Two Face, there is no f-ing way that Rocksteady would dare rip us off with the same villain more than once or twice and Joker's death in Arkham City is what marks Arkham Knight the beginning of the end in the Arkham Universe, so with Scarecrow as the main villain, there maybe something really interesting in the comics regarding the Scarecrow that Rocksteady is willing to bring out into the game. Now for the Arkham Knight, because of the fact that the character's voice has been revealed to be Troy Baker when the actor himself has been confirmed to reprise his role as Two Face from Batman Arkham City and because he voiced the Joker in Batman: Arkham Origins, it's precisely what brings about the suspicion that Rocksteady may end up ripping us off with the Joker as Montreal did by having him impersonate one of the villains in the games, which would definately cause a real problem for most potential fans and may result to lynching. Even if some of you don't care by disagreeing with me, but deep down, you will know that I am right.



Hopefully because Joker's dead, that Scarecrow had been absent from Arkham City planning his ultimate scheme for Arkham Knight uniting Harley, Penguin, and Two Face together with him as a team and that the Arkham Knight is said to be as original as characters in the games like Dr. Young and many more who did not originate from the comics, and that the bosses of Rocksteady promise that the Joker will not come back from the dead to rob the spotlight again and that he will only appear in flashbacks of the past Arkham games and as one of Scarecrow's nightmares, Scarecrow ( as the real Johnathan Crane for real) and the Arkham Knight (as a brand new villain done off scratch) should be okay as the main villains of this new game for sure. And if the Arkham Knight under the mask is someone made from scratch meaning that he maybe someone connected to Dr. Young, Quincy Sharp, Hugo Strange, or Amadeus Arkham, then there maybe a good and fair enough reason to why Troy Baker has been cast the voice of the Arkham Knight as he, Kevin Conroy, and John Noble are the main voice actors for this game.




But in the mean time be sure to be on your guard on what surprises the next wave of trailers to Batman Arkham Knight may have in store for us and be sure to stay alert once you all get the game and start playing through the missions as well. This is serious people. We want Batman Arkham Knight to be the ultimate and most satisfyingly relieving game of next year so be sure to remain on your guard while the game is yet to come.

The Arkham KNight is Batman's worst fear, someone who can beat him: he's a part of the Scarecrow fear gas.

Interestein - That doesn't really make much sense considering several characters acknowledge Arkham Knights existence and talks about him.

Of course the Joker is coming back, and Baker will obviously reprise that role. It could be in hallucination or in recordings, but the character isn't gone.

No hating, but more commas and periods please.

(Or not. We have a Nobel winner who wrote without much punctuation, so be free to emulate that.)

Troy Baker was already voice of Robin/Tim Drake and Two-Face in Arkham-games before becoming the Joker. Joker isn't coming back from dead, fear-gas hallucination maybe but him being alive would totally wash-out Arkham City's ending. I don't believe they would purpously ruin one of the most awesome and powerfull video game endings ever.

Okay dude, there are these great things in grammar called 'Full stops'. They end a sentence and help break down your arguments.

Aside from that, interesting stuff, I'll be very surprised if the AK is not linked to Joker in any way.

@Obi it would be the same case as the Joker. Strange died in the Wonder Tower's explosion, with bits spread throughout Arkham City. Bringing him back would make no sense.
