Personally, I've never heard of him before this game. However, I believe that just because someone has previous good works doesn't mean they shouldn't be criticized. If it's not his best work he should absolutely be made aware of this, in a way that's not toxic, so that he can improve. If he simply just wasn't inspired for the character then he's not completely to blame, but if you want to be respected as a VA imho you shouldn't be taking jobs that you just won't perform well for. The other part falls on Anet for paying for subpar work just for a name. To me, he barely even sounds like a noble. Faren sounds way more like a noble should sound. The voice just lacks character to me.
