Random curiosity.

Solid Snake is always going to be the OG iconic voice for me, but Velvet Crowe, 9S, and Dante are strong runner-ups.

Dante/Nero/Vergil are all great.

Snake obviously.

Brian Bloom does great work and doesn't get enough props, Varric is one of Bioware's best characters and it's in large part due to Bloom. His work in Wolfenstein is also a favorite.

Mark Strong as Captain Titus in Warhammer 40K: Space Marine was fantastic and that game needs a sequel.

Gideon Emery as Balthier but really in everything he does.

Just off the top of my head.

Albedo, Xenosaga.

Think that was the first time I looked into who the voice actor was and never forgot (Crispin Freeman).

The worst part is I just searched "Albedo" on youtube to revisit his best moments and literally every hit is either an anime or a cartoon character of the same name... poor Xenosaga

Troy Baker as Yuri Lowell is still one of my favorite voice acting performances.

Ovan from .hack//G.U.
9S

Makoto (Persona 5)
Garrus and Tali (Mass Effect)

i could go on easily but maybe i should stop >_>

Gonna throw in Nier himself onto that list. Very strong understated performance portraying a broken, implacable dad. Emil was great too. Really, the entire game had phenomenal voice acting.

Alyson Court's Claire Redfield, I miss when she used to voice every appearance. Pretty much every voice actor in Overwatch is excellent too. Not sure if it totally counts, but Mark Hamill in the Arkham series is a huge stand-out too.

Individual character is Snake. My favorite overall voice cast in a game though would be Persona 4 Golden.

Lani Minella was terrific as Ivy Valentine in Soul Calibur... 3!

Of course, if we are going back to OG faves - Amanda Winn Lee as Konoko from Oni was awesome.

I don't play many video games, and as such I'm pleased to see Crispin Freeman represented in this thread! He's great.

Jamieson Price (Sojiro, Father, Ovan, etc.) That guy's voice is just insane. The right blend of gravitas and intimidation.

Mary Elizabeth McGlynn, Steve Blum, Liam O'Brien, and Laura Bailey are close behind in a "Top 5" of sorts. So many other good actors out there to name though.

Lia Sargent wasn't in that much stuff, but I definitely agree with above. She played Shion's "moody, overworked, agressive" science geek well, even if Ep. 3 threw all her effort into a dump with that plot twist and ending.

Whoever played her in Ep. 2 (someone from Blood+ I think) couldn't even compare. Then again, Ep. 2 as a whole..oof.
