Characters Voice Comparison - "Cayde-6"

[@PeterStellenberg]

Nolan really did a good Nathan Fillion impression, wow.

[@BryonYoungblood]

Yeah, and he really had Cayde's dorky nature down well.

[@Brandon0159]

Nah after playing all the uncharted games I can tell the difference as clear as night and day he sounds like Nathan drake now I like the original better

[@andreassmed2255]

Well, Nathan Fillion was unavailable for a short time, so...

[@robin9031]

@@Brandon0159 i dont think you understand hes dead... Nolan only voiced him for like 10 lines

[@idesofmars]

not surprised since he based his Nathan Drake voice off of Fillion

[@ShaunInce123]

I love both performances. Though Nathan Fillion has the slight edge here.

[@joecroft4274]

I also like both but I think that Nolan sounds more like a Deadpool version of Cayde because he played Deadpool and Nathan was good because he was funny in a natural way.

[@107frenchy]

Nolan agreed with this

[@helleboreofficial4692]

"NOW LET'S GO TO PRISON!" This line has me cracking up everytime because of how enthusiastic North is about it XD

[@gradyhilburn2612]

Probably because he’s the original voice actor

[@bizcuits4341]

Exactly my thoughts. It's amazing how good the imitation is but Fillion has that bit of gruffness to the voice

[@gtafan328]

This is the future of destiny now everyone will be replaced by nolan north

[@oweeen976]

Haha Zavala, Lord Shax, Ikora voice by Nolan

[@jackreavergaming0115]

Nolan only filled in for Nathan because nathan was busy with his show. Nolan even said in an interview that if they asked him to play cayde again he would say no.

[@Doom_Hawk]

You say that like it's a bad thing. I bet you Nolan North can do a perfect Lance Reddick impression.

[@iamthestormthatisapproaching69]

He can make an entire game by himself!

[@zkvickers2466]

*INDEED* (Nolan North Edition)

[@zfrometa8316]

I love you Nolan but It Nathan will always be Cayde

[@Sophie_the_Sapphic]

Nolan actually agrees with you on this, he even said that he won't do it again, if cayde returns

[@theronfoxfriend8611]

@RANK: LIEUTENANT. CALLSIGN: VIPER if i may ask how did they mess it up?

[@Sam-pr9rr]

@@theronfoxfriend8611 killed him off for sales

[@thefederalrepublicoferusea3900]

Nolan did an a tier Nathan did an s tier

[@sporg9806]

Regardless of whether or not the idea was for sales, the storyline was great and made the best storyline of all the dlc's

[@CorpsePrincezz]

You know what’s funny.....so Nolan North plays Cayde-6 (Nathan Fillions character) for forsaken and Nathan Fillion plays Nathan Drake (Nolan Norths character) in the live action “movie”. How funny is that. Also Cayde sounds like Nathan Drake. Since cayde and Nathan were similar in away with their personalities.

[@metrodog]

And Nathan Fillion now plays Officer Nolan on The Rookie.

[@UnpopularWaffle]

Lol

[@ismaodst9500]

He is also Buck

[@kirishumia.g]

They are brothers (they aren't)

[@HybrydATP64]

LOL. Ikr

[@xabled4689]

i know i told my buddies this and they was like your stupid then they looked it up and was like wtf

[@Brandon0159]

Nah you can tell the difference he sounds more like Nathan drake than cayde

[@erickrubio7330]

My mind is now broken on so many levels

[@DammnDeejay]

Nathan sounds like he's a natural being Cayde. Like..he IS Cayde-6. Nolan sound like he's *trying* a bit. You can almost hear the unnatural higher pitch in voice to grasp that comedic view of Cayde we all know and love

[@emberjenkins4598]

Nolan North did such a good job impersonating Nathan Fillian. Well done NorthBot

[@GreatfulGert]

Actually, it’s Nolandroid.

[@xolagix]

@@GreatfulGert Peterbot vs Nolandroid.

[@omni_sparrow5473]

@@xolagix I thought it was Dinklebot

[@brysonkuervers2570]

Well they sound pretty distinct

[@Unity116]

They sound pretty much the same, but Nathans voice just seemed more natural to the character, maybe just because thats how I'm used to him sounding

[@lolyee931]

Beta Twster To be honest the new cayde sounds more comical but both fit the character really well

[@RafaelMunizYT]

I think it's because Nolan's Cayde sounds like a robotic Drake

[@TeoUnreleased]

@@RafaelMunizYT depends on what kind of drake 😂😂 like his normal voice or his autotune voice

[@JustinHiryu]

They sound nearly the same, and that is the point. Cayde-6's is a well loved character with a well loved voice. Changing that voice risks people getting detached from the character and given what happens to Cayde in Forsaken, the impact needed to not be diminished.

[@yfrit_gg]

Finding this video and this comment after the release of The Final Shape hits different :( You were totally right

[@JustinHiryu]

@@yfrit_gg Indeed. How many people here remember that the original voice of Ghost was Peter Dinklidge?

[@acepedro12]

The biggest irony is that Nathan wasn't available to voice Cause because he was busy playing Nathan Drake (you know, the character Nolan voices) in an Uncharted short film.

[@aadityanair9981]

I'd love to think they both got a kick out of that

[@Spc117]

That’s just not true what so ever. He was filming his show called the rookie

[@SamDude-ww7rl]

No he wasn’t lol. He was busy with the show ‘the rookie’.

[@ellie8674]

this is very incorrect lol

[@OnMy116Fan]

Even if he was doing the show the rookie im honestly confused. He could have easily gone to a nearby recording studio and finished up pretty quick. My guess is that he wasn’t happy with the money or something. It’s honestly not that hard to make time for just voice acting.

[@seventh-seraph-cqc-1225]

My favorite line from Nolan north: LETS GO TO PRISON!

[@Jackomojo]

Top 10 last words

[@DanielIXVIMCMLXXXI]

Nolan did a good job and if you didn't know it was a different voice actor then you couldn't tell. But during forsaken if you had a sharp ear you could tell the difference. I just don't know why they didn't have Nathan finish the job.

[@junkenstein8255]

Nathan was busy with a show.

[@marcosharko8247]

Yeah I didn’t hear any of the news about it. I later found out Nolan North took over the roll. I honestly couldn’t tell at all.

[@SnowieTheMoth3]

During the making of forsaken, Nathans contract with bungie was up, and yes he was busy with the show 9-1-1, which is why bungie gave nolan the role for caydes last stand.

[@TonyJaaFan1587]

I’m pretty sure Nathan was filming 9-1-1

[@seancm5329]

Yeah I remember when forsaken first dropped I noticed his voice was just slightly off. but like you said, need a sharp ear to hear that.

[@TheOneTheyCallFrost]

They replaced Nathan? I didn't even know. Never got Destiny 2. Damn, they replace everyone with Nolan North. I remember they dis the same thing with the ghost. I love Nolan though.

[@Anonymys43]

Due to his new show, he is unavailable to continue to voice Cayde which is why Nolan North stepped in for the Forsaken DLC, he nailed his character too

[@poultry-lover6665]

Nathan didn't want to be in forsaken dlc

[@lukany3292]

Nolan also said he wouldn’t voice Cayde again

[@block36079]

Poultry-lover666 source?

[@block36079]

Lukany source?

[@Purplecrocodiles]

There are very subtle differences. Cayde was always a bit of a jokester but I felt it more in Nolan Norths performance. Nathan’s Cayde had a hint more of a deeper sound to it.

[@alexcuaresma3728]

Nearly identical. Just that I'm used to the old cayde voice. Like the old ghost voice for those who remember.

[@KoPT01]

I had no idea until now that it *wasnt* Fillion in Forsaken. Nolan is incredibly talented.

[@davinpoggy]

To be honest I didn't even know Nolan voiced him in foresaken until someone told me 😂

[@pb_and_james9088]

I didn’t even notice the voice actor change on my first run through the forsaken campaign. Had never even knew that Fillion left. Only on my third-ish run wayyyyy later (after playing through the red war campaign again) did I notice that Cayde’s voice was a bit off. Props to Nolan North though for making a pretty spot on impression of Fillion. It of course helps that the exo-voice-changer and great writing also assisted in selling the Cayde “feel”

[@SgtBuck01]

The voice may not be an exact match, but it's the personality that counts.

[@Riverfrost77]

As good as North did, Fillion’s voice is just too iconic. Made me kinda sad that my favorite actor couldn’t even voice his character’s final lines in the most impactful moment in Destiny

[@polemonkey6976]

I love looking at t he various random armor combos in these types of videos

[@justinchalichemala5365]

Nolan north actually does a really good impression of cayde-6. Glad cayde-6 fell into the right hands.

[@cleverraccoon0687]

"That'll never not freak me out". "Do it again"! 🤣

[@blseodm]

For anyone that doesn't know, Nathan voiced Cayde for D1, D2 Vanilla, and The Final Shape. Nolan only did it back in the opening mission of Forsaken.

[@MasterHall117]

Fun fact: the “maybe eat a sandwich” bit was a reference of when Nathan had double hernia surgery, so he would come home, eat a sandwich, and pretty much stay up till 3 AM playing Halo Which also lead to him getting his own character: Edward Buck

[@killerclone2177]

from gamer to ODST.. now that's a promotion

[@MasterHall117]

I didn't even notice that on forsaken was another voice actor. Great Job from Nolan.

[@renamako8845]

I find it funny how Deadpool and Cayde6 have a lot in common and the fact Nolan North voices Deadpool before just makes it’s hella fitting he voiced Cayde even if it was just a stand in role at the time

[@anxivty]

i prefer nathan, but nolan did *such* a good impression

[@lianguini4642]

No matter how hard I try I still can’t hear a fucking difference

[@TheBlueFluffyGaming]

The fact that nathan fillion is returning brings a tear to my eye.

[@MerryMohProductions]

Oh hey, they got Nolan to voice Deadpool again.

[@wheelyjon]

Short little things like that are really useful sometimes when you can't quiet place whether a voice has changed thanks for that. I had a feeling it was castle in the first set of trailers / game and then when this last trailer came out for the DLC I was unsure it sounded similar but not quite. So again thanks for taking the time to do it. Did Nolan North also continue playing the ghost?

[@binary1123]

So Nolan basically did Nathan Drake

[@wickedbadass4032]

binary1123 Well Nathan Drake is basically Nathan Fillion so...

[@UncleMcFunkle]

Honestly i had Zero idea he was voiced by Nolan North on Forsaken! Such a good Cayde impression!

[@pearson674]

and now Nathan is BACK BABY!!

[@spimpsmacker6422]

Nolan North is quite possibly one of the most gifted voice actors to ever grace the media, might've not done a perfect replication of Nathan's Cayde but still impressive how many impressions he can do.

[@jfernandez7098]

I honestly couldnt tell that it was a different voice actor until one of my friends told me a month after I finished forsaken

[@TonyJaaFan1587]

I’ll be honest I didn’t know Nathan fillion was the original voice actor, I don’t pay much attention to the voices of the characters

[@jediknight_4798]

Honestly both did an amazing job on cayde mad props to nolan for making him sound so similar that people couldn't even tell unless told

[@Scooter7891]

I think Nolan's best job doing Nathan was in the Ace in the Hole mission.

[@Ben-wq4zf]

Nah, that was Nathan for Ace in the hole. And I’m glad they got him to do those lines which give me a feeling he did those way before forsaken was announced.

[@julianr8544]

@@Ben-wq4zf Um no, it wasn't. It was where I definitely felt something was off about the voice too, but Nolan did an excellent job nonetheless.

[@Enigma71559]

It's funny. I don't think I ever would have noticed that Nolan was doing Cayde in "Forsaken" if I hadn't heard about it. But when you compare them side by side and I know it's Nolan, I can hear the difference.

[@cancerousnut7767]

Nolan is a great actor, and a perfect impression of cayde

[@Razur1]

I didn’t even notice a difference

[@TheGreaterDane]

It took me looking up the cast for the voices of Destiny to realize that Nolan North voiced Foresaken-Cayde. Voice actors are amazing

[@ERElement77]

Wait, Nathan Fillion didn’t even say “how’s your sister?”

[@ThatComputerGuyRyan]

Nolan is a master of impressions. They said that when they were recording lines for the stealing stasis mission, they wanted Drifter's actual VA. He wasn't available due to the curse of 2020, so they had Nolan try. Nolan's impression of The Drifter is supposedly so good that they instead asked him to be ghost pretending to be drifter

[@TheAHuman]

I find it hard to understand how Nolan is also the voice of Dr. Edward Richtofen.

[@alexisrodriguez7127]

I knew something was different when I started playing the forsaken dlc. Just shrugged it off, I had no idea they changed voice actors

[@legoshi6531]

I honestly can't complain Nolan is my all time favorite voice actor, he's starred in all my favorite games. No matter what role big or small he clearly puts in all he's got.

[@syphonexp4695]

Nolan did great but no one can ever truly compare to Nathan’s performance

[@weird_0]

Cayde always reminded me of ryan reynolds. I now need a ryan reynolds voiced cayde 6

[@acertainlustforlife]

Holy shit. I had no idea. I never would have known

[@vazanere]

Insane how these voice actors can just sound like each other

[@OutspokenRed]

The day forsaken came out I could tell it wasn't Nathan, you can tell Nolan is a bit deeper and sounds more tense while Nathan is higher and it comes out really smooth.

[@wellsclassof2017]

I'ma be honest here I honestly could not tell that was Nolan North. He does a great Nathan Fillion impression.

[@SaiSivakumar]

Playing Forsken for the first time and I didn't actually notice the change. But a side-by-side comparison is where you spot the difference. It's subtle, but there.

[@mcccxxiii1323]

[@quadfatherjr3911]

Credit to Nolan for filling in for Cayde. He did a good job. First play through back in 2018 I wasn't sure if it was him or not. But with Fillion there's more warmth/depth to his voice. Not necessarily deeper but it sounds more full.

[@TheGarsh10]

Holy shit after all these years i never knew that was nolan north voicing him in forsaken

[@lordshaxx8461]

FYI Nolan had to also cover the voice for the drifter for one of the beyond light missions and they had to have it tone it down a bit because in game he was supposed to do a impression but it was said he sounded exactly like the voice actor of the drifter. So he needed to make it sound more like a impression

[@hervisdaubeny2784]

Only slightly noticable difference is that nolan has a thicker american accent

[@Harpy-with-Legs]

lol his impression of Nathan Fillion is spot on I legit just didn’t notice it was our ghost

[@Tophkaneki]

Honestly cant tell the difference and that blows me away. I will say I think Nolan added more flare and character, but voice wise sounds the same to me at least. Which is impressive as far as impressions go.

[@ddDEANnn]

Nathan Fillion has some of my favorite roles in media like Buck in halo, Hermes in Percy Jackson and Cayde is D1 and D2

[@MrKing-qd7gi]

I never even noticed a change Holy shit. Hell if I shut my eyes and played the video I wouldn't be able to tell when the VA changes.

[@claytonreeves150]

The only time it was ever noticeable to me was during the "Ace In the Hole" mission. I seriously thought they had Fillion do the lines during "Last Call" for months.
