The microphone does matter. But consider that [this voiceover](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLc0KfstFH0) was recorded on a microphone that looked something [like this](/images/mic.jpg).  

While recording on a microphone like that should not be the priority, one can appreciate that what does matter; is the quality and ambience of your environment.  

You'll be surprised at what you can get away with as long as the backdrop is pin drop silence.
