Good to know! I've been in PR dep for some time and learnt some of the tricks, and this one would be one of the "by the book" ones. But it's seems it's a professional handicap speaking...
Worked in PR for a few years myself. Definitely a trick of the trade. lol

Props to Skaadi - but this felt a little bit weird in the hands of EM - a sort of thanks but no-thanks ecard. Now that it's being done independently I'd like to add my own little note.

Gah! What were they thinking!?!
I guess if there's a point to being creative, it's so that we get the chance to begin to understand how something might look from someone else's point of view. To make a down-payment against what Obama called the empathy deficit. It's hardly trivial stuff. So truth be to told I was looking forward to you reprising the role of Garrett maybe a little older and more sage than before and I was sorely disappointed that we'll get to miss out, not just on your voice acting (which has always been immensely enjoyable by the way) but also the opportunity for people to play someone other than generic action hero age ~ an older, sager kind of someone.
That probably came out wrong. Not that you're old of course :/
Oh well. Here's hoping film, theatre and voice work for all manner of other things keeps you busy at least until the next Thief. And here's hoping that in the mean time video games have learned that all sorts of characters, not just generic gritty action heroes, make for fascinating protagonists.
That probably came out wrong. Not that I doubt you can do a fine generic gritty action hero :/
Thanks for the adventures - it won't be the same without you, and all the best for the future.

When's the wake?

Is it too late to add my "thank you" to the rest ?

I'm fairly sure it isn't.

OK, tomorrow I'll try to bang out something brief but meaty. :thumb: It's a very rare opportunity to thank a voice actor you admire, and I'm not intending to waste it. :)

Keep 'em coming, folks! The window has not closed!

I'll put the one I had posted in the original EM thread, short but sincere:
Mr. Russell, your voice is the soul of my 3 favourite games. You truly embody Garrett like no other. Thank you for all your work.
