Thaos' Voice Actor?
I feel like I'm going insane. All of the credits online list Thaos' voice actor as Todd Haberkorn, but that doesn't seem to be right, since he sounds nothing like the voice heard in the game. Furthermore, Pillars of Eternity isn't listed on Haberkorn's imdb or wikipedia pages. That's even weirder, though, because I eventually went and re-watched the ending credits for the game, and Todd Haberkorn is indeed listed under voice actors, though there are no character names associated.

As best I can tell, Thaos is ACTUALLY voiced by William Salyers, who gave a similar performance in the recent Hitman game as Erich Soders (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnY5dPT_sq0). This is weird because Pillars of Eternity isn't listed in his assorted credits, in Wikipedia or IMDB, and he's definitely not listed as a voice actor in the PoE credits.

So... Does anyone know what the story is there? Did Salyers do the excellent work as Thaos under the table? Did he get stiffed due credit by Obsidian? Why did Todd Haberkorn end up credited as Thaos?

Well, nuts. I don't know how I missed that. The rest of it still stands, though - if you listen to the actors, it's pretty clear that Salyers voiced Thaos, not Haberkorn.

So, the general mood seems to be that I HAVE gone insane. Fair enough?

Well I wouldn' go that far, I'd just say you're likely mistaken in your assumption.
