A Mass Effect like you’ve never seen it before.
“Do we want to entrust the fate of the galaxy to a person like him?“-“Only those like him are able to defend it“. Thus begins the intro of Mass Effect and so begins the video mashup that sees as the protagonist not Shepard but Austin Powers. A senseless crossover but one that is really hilarious and hats off to whoever created it, that is the YouTuber “eli_handle_b․wav”.
The video is a veritable bundle of memes, from the brief Mako tribute to the absolutely brilliant catalyst scene, and the funny thing is how well Powers can fit into the Mass Effect universe.
The character’s unique take on sexuality should be awkward, and frankly, a lot of the romantic dialogue in Mass Effect is pretty awkward too. Things like dance are almost tailor-made, and the fact that the YouTuber was able to fit Austin Powers perfectly into the Mass Effect story in under two minutes is absolutely brilliant. Not only that, but the video also reached Bioware who always replied with irony.
