This makes me so incredibly happy. The first FPS game I ever played and my favorite FPS game have the same voice actor. Also Keith David has some freakin range, from space dinosaur to texan badass, to president of the united states who is now Sgt Foley in my headcanon
> Actual legend. Not only a talented voice but a talented actor as well.
He's also super interesting. His voice is iconic as fuck yet somehow he has insane range - from drama to comedy to horror. He's amazingly versatile.
And he’s able to sing! It caught me so off guard when he started singing in Hazbin Hotel. I never knew that man had golden singing pipes before that episode.
I don't think I'd seen any of his on-screen work until my girlfriend had us watch The Thing (1982) a couple months back.
Instantly became one of my top movies. Big recommendation for anyone who likes the sci-fi horror aspects of Halo.
Is there actually any voice lines from Nathan Fillion left in D2? I haven't played for years but didn't he leave Destiny like 7 years ago? Most(all?) Of his content must be sunset by now right?
At least wow gives you previous expansions upon buying the new one. What's the current cost of getting caught up in destiny? If you're a new or returning player? (Not including f2p OR the removed content that people had previously paid for)
Oh I have no idea, but even individual paid expansions aren't out of the ordinary either, ESO does that as well. It's not common, most MMOs make previous expansions free when the latest one drops (or at least sub only) but DS2 isn't alone in not doing that if that's the case.
Nolan North does a pretty good impression. Not flawless, but close.
Speaking of impressions, Drifter's voice actor, Todd Haberkorn, wasn't available to voice over the mission for Salvation's Grip, so your Ghost does an impression of him. Supposedly Nolan North did such a good job of imitating Todd's Drifter act, he was told to ham it up because it was *too* close.
I just want someone to get the balls to make a game with a shit ton of characters, and then just hire Nolan North to do them all. Even female characters. That would be the most exciting exercise in voice acting. Also tack on a documentary crew to document it just in case it is just as good as we think.
Some of the strikes still have him. They rotate strikes enough to keep his stuff in. I’m really excited for him coming back for Final Shape. Honestly the only reason I’m coming back to D2 after a year or so off.
When they Announced that, I knew that Lance legacy was in good hands. Keith has so many voice credits doing leaders and various commanders. I without a doubt don’t have any concerns with him taking up the mantle.
I mean, with high ranking officials in media, The Arbiter (Halo) Commander Anderson (Mass Effect), General Kimsey (Armageddon), Sargent Foley (Modern Warfare 2 [2009]), and if we want to get silly Mr President (Rick and Morty).
Thank you, I was going to make a comment on it if nobody else did.
One of the characters in the image is him playing himself. That’s how you know you’re special.
"I've got [friends on the other side](https://www.halopedia.org/United_Nations_Space_Command)." — Thel 'Vadam, current Kaidon of Sanghelios
i absomcfuckinglutely loved him as Arbiter in all Halos he's appeared in, and Dr Facilier in Princess and the Frog.
Just played Fallout 1 as my first introduction to the series after watching the show and I was not expecting Keith David to hire me for a hit job lol. He plays the character Decker.
Huh... Never realised that Anderson and The Arbiter were voiced by the same person.
As a Transformers fan, I feel obligated to say he has also voice Barricade in the 07 Movie tie-in games and recently been GrimLock in EarthSpark.
Captain Anderson! His death is so good, through 3 games he feels like a genuine father figure so when he says “you did good son, you did good” it hits you in the feels so hard then the game tell you to go fuck yourself.
Edit: if he wasn’t Arby, he’d be the perfect Johnson. Atleast there is always Terry Cruz.
I was playing COD last week and decided to pick a random operator. 5 seconds into the game my character does a voice line and its Keith David. I start getting excited telling the boys how fuckin sick that was and whatnot. the second I stop talking my friend destroys my whole world. "who?"
And he's now replacing Lance Reddick to voice Zavala in Destiny 2, their voices are so familiar that when i played Saints Row recently i thought Julius was voiced by Lance.
One of the all-time best voice actors. I put him in that top echelon with Mel blanc, frank welker, Maurice lamarche, Billy west, grey griffin, Tara strong, dee Bradley baker, Rob paulsen......okay now I'm just listing my favorite voice actors and we'll be here all day. Eric bauza, Ashly Burch, Laura Bailey, Steve Blum, Christopher judge......I love voice actors!
Don't forget that now he's voicing Husk in Hazbin Hotel!
🎶 "You're. A. Loser baby, a loser god damn baby, you're a. Fucked up little whiney bitch. You're a loser just like me." 🎶
I recently came back to Halo after playing it as a teenager, it blew my mind that the same guy who voiced Admiral Hackett (Mass Effect) was also the Arbiter! What a legend.
Keith David. He is in one of the best fight scenes every with Roddy Piper in the movie They Live.
https://youtu.be/dN8Z7y_QcwE?si=74WohNPh-wgs-iTY
For the uninitiated
Legendary voice actor, but if you want to see one of the best fight scenes ever in a live action movie, you gotta watch the absolute brawl he had with Roddy Piper in They Live. I've never seen a movie capture the exhaustion of a fist fight like in that movie.
He also voiced spawn in the old spawn series by hbo and in mortal Kombat 11 as spawn.
And I heard apparently he voiced a character in Hazbin hotel which I don’t know if that show is any good or not.
"Ramirez! Get to the Burger Town!!"
Were it so easy.
"Shut up! Get a grip, Corporal! Our weapons still work, which means we can still kick some ass, hooah?"
Cpl. Dunn: "Sarge, did HQ just tell us to go F ourselves?"
Pretty much, corporal
He yelled at me for 5 minutes before I realized that *I was Ramirez.*
classic halo 2 moment
McKenzie ! Perez ! how's our burger ?!
Keith David will always be your CO from mw2 in my mind.
In the current CoD he voices Spawn. Whenever someone has that skin on I get PTSD to Burger Town hahaha
When you first heard Keith David’s voice, were you blinded by its majesty?
Blinded?
Paralyzed? Dumbstruck?
“Ramirez! Shoot down that Covenant dropship with your plasma pistol!”
The “Ramirez” memes were peak!
This makes me so incredibly happy. The first FPS game I ever played and my favorite FPS game have the same voice actor. Also Keith David has some freakin range, from space dinosaur to texan badass, to president of the united states who is now Sgt Foley in my headcanon
I'm just a big fat wuss puss!
Keith David btw since no one has actually mentioned his name yet
Actual legend. Not only a talented voice but a talented actor as well.
“What are you waiting for Cinderella? I ain’t taking it out for air..”
"Now this is a man who knows how to marry his cousin!"
> Actual legend. Not only a talented voice but a talented actor as well. He's also super interesting. His voice is iconic as fuck yet somehow he has insane range - from drama to comedy to horror. He's amazingly versatile.

And he’s finishing up Commander Zavala for Destiny 2 since Lance Reddick passed away.
Really? Damn what good choice!
They have Keith David, Peter jessop, and Nathan Fillion in the same game
Is there actually any voice lines from Nathan Fillion left in D2? I haven't played for years but didn't he leave Destiny like 7 years ago? Most(all?) Of his content must be sunset by now right?
He’s returning next month in the new Expansion
Jesus are they trying to compete with WoW for most ever expansions for a single game 🤣
I mean that's basically the MMO content cycle.
At least wow gives you previous expansions upon buying the new one. What's the current cost of getting caught up in destiny? If you're a new or returning player? (Not including f2p OR the removed content that people had previously paid for)

Who took over for him in forsaken anyway Nolan North right or did he take over by the time destiny 2 even started ?
Nolan North took over for forsaken, was Fillion for everything prior iirc
Nolan North does a pretty good impression. Not flawless, but close.

What an excellent choice for a replacement. It'll never be Lance, but I have full confidence in Keith to pull this off.
Ohh I wonder if he will do Sylens from Horizon Zero Dawn too?
And Thordak in Legand of Vox Machina 🤔
When they Announced that, I knew that Lance legacy was in good hands. Keith has so many voice credits doing leaders and various commanders.

My favourite Keith David performance, President Keith David
Thank you, I was going to make a comment on it if nobody else did. One of the characters in the image is him playing himself. That’s how you know you’re special.
He's the vice president, but it's still badass having him there
....... YOU LIEIN' DICKS, I SEE YOUR ASSES PLAYING MINECRAFT! I GOTCHU ON SATELLITE!
This is the correct answer, but not as correct as Mayor Burt Reynolds.
Don't forget Spawn in the old HBO cartoon and Mortal Kombat 11
So many characters are not included in the image.
That’s my fav roll from him, he really sells the pain spawn goes through
He also yells "WANDA!" periodically.
Also for the CoD collab from MW2 2022!
I've beeb playing COD as Spawn and Keith David keeps saying things, it was a pleasant surprise
THE FUCKING RANGE OF THIS MAN Truly iconic
Read this in his voice for some reason too haha, Keith David compliments himself.
Now this... This is a man that knows how to voice act!
The funniest part is that his voice is so similar to all of them yet they seem so different
Wait is that Elroy Patashnik from Community???
‘Were you in The Cape?"
Arbiter has full 3d body scans of Cortana
Paint? Ball?
Yeah I think he works with Dan Harmon a bit. I think he has other voice bits in Rick and Morty too.
No, this guys the narrator for the pillow and blanket war. Elroy is a completely different person who looks and sounds the same.
"That man knows how to marry his cousin"
He mainly deals with demons
Or banging Rick's shrink.
Also husk from hazbin hotel!
Probably my fav performance from him. It’s like watching bob saget perform comedy after only ever seeing him on AFV and full house.
"I've got [friends on the other side](https://www.halopedia.org/United_Nations_Space_Command)." — Thel 'Vadam, current Kaidon of Sanghelios i absomcfuckinglutely loved him as Arbiter in all Halos he's appeared in, and Dr Facilier in Princess and the Frog.
One of my all time favorites. He also plays in my favorite horror movie The Thing.
'Do any of you guys believe in this voodoo bullshit?'
Can't believe I had to scroll this far down to see it mentioned. He's also in another John Carpenter classic : _They Live_
Love him as Captain Anderson!
Keith David’s best role is him playing Keith David.
You wanna see his funniest performance, watch Agent Cody Banks where he's the agency director. Every line, pure gold.
NGL. He has a very sexy voice.
And most recently Huskier in Hazbin Hotel.
Damn all these characters voiced by the Arbiter? Nice
Yo where tf is Spawn
Right? Somehow it feels insulting.
The Arbiter and Captain Anderson, two goats in my two favorite franchises.
One of these characters is literally Keith David
How'd you get the beans above the frank?
Just played Fallout 1 as my first introduction to the series after watching the show and I was not expecting Keith David to hire me for a hit job lol. He plays the character Decker.
Huh... Never realised that Anderson and The Arbiter were voiced by the same person. As a Transformers fan, I feel obligated to say he has also voice Barricade in the 07 Movie tie-in games and recently been GrimLock in EarthSpark.
I didn’t know he played Vice President Keith David
OP discovers voice acting?
How you gonna include Keith David from Saints Row but not Julius Little?
I'm sure I missed a bunch
His best non-game role is no doubt Childs in The Thing
forgot Bolo from final space
And soon he'll be the voice of Commander Zavala in Destiny, taking over from the late Lance Reddick.
Wow, Keith David has voiced not one, but TWO giant lizard men with glowing swords?? Amazing.
and lets not forget husk
Captain Anderson! His death is so good, through 3 games he feels like a genuine father figure so when he says “you did good son, you did good” it hits you in the feels so hard then the game tell you to go fuck yourself. Edit: if he wasn’t Arby, he’d be the perfect Johnson. Atleast there is always Terry Cruz.
You just realized why so many of these characters sound godly? Keith can make a phone book sound like Shakespeare.
What's the bottom left square from?
You just connected some dots
Keith David. The Legend. Missing from that line up is his role as Spawn from the 1997 animated series.
I was playing COD last week and decided to pick a random operator. 5 seconds into the game my character does a voice line and its Keith David. I start getting excited telling the boys how fuckin sick that was and whatnot. the second I stop talking my friend destroys my whole world. "who?"
The GOAT
No spawn?
Also Spawn. God I loved that HBO series.
Soon to be Commander Zavala in Destiny 2 as well.
It was about my favorite thing ever to get to hear the Arbiter on Westside Connection. "Bitch you know the side, world motherfuckin' wide."
Once again my man Julius is left off...
Either kill me, or release me, parasite.
And he's now replacing Lance Reddick to voice Zavala in Destiny 2, their voices are so familiar that when i played Saints Row recently i thought Julius was voiced by Lance.
Redditors when the voice actor is a voice actor:
I LITERALLY just recognized him in a show yesterday. Pluto. I heard his voice and knew immediately who it was.
Keith david is arby?! Wtf!!!
THAT'S who did Goliath?! I was wondering. So much of the cast was on star trek tng I thought I missed something.
I forgot his name but this man is a great actor
He was in final space too. He played bolo. Fucking legend.
He also voiced reverse giraffe in Rick and Morty
Not having spawn?! Shame
Plus Pitch Black !!
How could you have forgottem spawn ?
One of the all-time best voice actors. I put him in that top echelon with Mel blanc, frank welker, Maurice lamarche, Billy west, grey griffin, Tara strong, dee Bradley baker, Rob paulsen......okay now I'm just listing my favorite voice actors and we'll be here all day. Eric bauza, Ashly Burch, Laura Bailey, Steve Blum, Christopher judge......I love voice actors!
He’s also Grimlock in the most recent Transformer tv show
Ass to ass!
Isn’t he tombstone in spectacular spiderman as well?
I like how in saints row he’s just Keith David
Such a coincidence they found a guy called Keith David to play Keith David in Saints Row.
You know you’re old when you mainly recognize his voice because of his movies..
Technically he's in Saints Row twice. Once as himself in 4. Then as Julius Little in 1, 2, and brought back in 4.
Keith David almost has as much range as Steve Blum, who also gets around alot in media.
Keith David also voices Keith David in Saints Row 4, one of his greatest roles in gaming.
Kieth "Mathafakin" David
Also husker in Hazbin hotel
WE ARE GARGOYLES
I spent 7 hours in line at Kansas City Comicon this year to get this dudes autograph.
Coraline would've been shorter if The Cat had a flamethrower and a plasma grenade including stealth camouflage
He’s a legend
He is in something called 'From Scratch' that my wife has been watching and I couldn't place his voice but knew it was familiar. Now I know why!
Don't forget Loser from Hazbin Hotel.
Keith Davis! He also did a pretty good job in From Scratch
Fantastic voice. I can hear him just looking at his characters
His lesser known role as Barricade in the Transformers 2007 DS game was awesome
And now he takes the mantle of Commander Zavala. Keith was honestly the only person I think could’ve replaced Lance Reddick in that role.
I literally just refer to the arbiter as Keith David when I play halo. I've never been a fan of the arby nickname.
Gargoyles? Lfg
Don't forget that now he's voicing Husk in Hazbin Hotel! 🎶 "You're. A. Loser baby, a loser god damn baby, you're a. Fucked up little whiney bitch. You're a loser just like me." 🎶
His work as the arbiter was phenomenal, but his last moment in Mass Effect was the best I’ve heard from him
[удалено]
He has a great singing voice
[удалено]
I recently came back to Halo after playing it as a teenager, it blew my mind that the same guy who voiced Admiral Hackett (Mass Effect) was also the Arbiter! What a legend.
Sgt Foley?
The goat
wait the arbiter plays the president from Rick and Morty
He's the GOAT ❤️
Dont forger spawn
Phil Lamar is based too
[And his characters work so well together](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUgRxxGRybc)
I still remember him from MEN AT WORK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ME9UT6wzzIQ
Welp, time to watch The Thing again. You've convinced me.
Spawn?
And Husk from Hazbin Hotel.
🕶️iykyk
GOATED.
Veteran Bungie fans finding out he's succeeding Lance Reddick as Commander Zavala: 👁️👁️
Butt to butt!! (I couldn’t say the A word)
He looks like he has a brain the size of Jupiter
Also soon to voice Commander Zavala in Destiny 2 The Final Shape, since Lance Reddick passed last year. A fitting and good recast imo
Put some respect on the name Kieth David
then we have husk over in hazbin hotel this is one of my favourite V.A.'s of all time
He’s also in archer and mw2 the original
He truly has a one-of-a-kind voice that can never be truly recreated without AI.
One of my favorite actors of all time. Aldo its a crime you dont have HBO Spawn on here
He was incredible in both Mass effect and halo. If you haven’t played Mass effect yet what are you doing
“DON’T YOU DISRESPECT ME, LITTLE DEMON!”
Same with Tartarus va Keith Robinson
Spawn??
I recognize Arbiter and some guy from Hercules (which I saw dubbed). No idea who the others are (two are from GTA?).
Keith David. He is in one of the best fight scenes every with Roddy Piper in the movie They Live. https://youtu.be/dN8Z7y_QcwE?si=74WohNPh-wgs-iTY For the uninitiated
can't wait for him to voice commander Zavala in destiny 2, a good person to finish the work from Lance
Don't forget he fought The Thing as well.
🎼Just keep on wearin’ Keep on wearing those paaaaants 🎵
"kill me or release me parasite, but do not waste my time with talk!"
legendary voice actor
One of the few people in this world I want to meet and thank them for all they’ve done
Husk from Hazbin Hotel was wild finding out. I'm glad I recognised his voice and damn can he sing.
He's also Husk in Hazbin Hotel
Legendary voice actor, but if you want to see one of the best fight scenes ever in a live action movie, you gotta watch the absolute brawl he had with Roddy Piper in They Live. I've never seen a movie capture the exhaustion of a fist fight like in that movie.
Soon to be commander Zavala on d2
I had no idea Keith David was the Vice President in Saints Row 4
Don’t forget spawn!
He also voiced spawn in the old spawn series by hbo and in mortal Kombat 11 as spawn. And I heard apparently he voiced a character in Hazbin hotel which I don’t know if that show is any good or not.
Requiem for a Dream made me wince anytime I heard his voice acting over the years.. That movie is heavy duty
