Indiana Jones and the Divine Circle was launched to great reception. It shows that even after so many years there is still love for Indy, and MachineGames captured it well. Of course, the image of Indy is very important, and Troy Baker gives a great performance as the famous treasure hunter.

I just hope the game doesn't start going the way of Indiana Jones and the Circle
The requirements are too high to be accessible to everyone.
However, Baker does not appear to be the first choice to play for Indy. In fact, the head of Bethesda, Todd Howard, did not want him to play this role at all. Baker revealed that Howard didn't really want to cast him as Indy, and even rolled his eyes when his name came up, especially since he's in almost every major video game.
That's a big hat to fill
In an interview with the BBC, Baker revealed that he initially turned down the role, but the casting team at MachineGames convinced him to audition (thanks, GamesRadar +). However, when it was brought up to Todd Howard, he “rolled his eyes” at Baker's name because he felt the player recognized his voice. “I never thought I'd be so successful,” Baker said.
He explained that he auditioned with several other actors and made it to the final two. After that, Todd Howard chose his voice for each blind test.
However, Baker was insecure after getting the part, and kept thinking he would be cast in the part. After Howard emails her “You're doing a bad job,” she's relieved. “I was like, 'You have no idea how much I needed to hear that right now,'” Baker explained.
Regarding Baker's ability to portray Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones, MachineGames Design Director Jens Andersson told us that he was indistinguishable from the voice samples they used for Ford. . “We asked for samples from different groups of people and the first time they heard what Troy was doing, they were like, 'Okay, this is the reference.' Can I hear Troy now?” And it was Troy. After that it was kind of clear,” he said.
