Avowed Easter Egg References Garrus’ Romance In Mass Effect

by

Summary

  • Avowed has a reference to Mass Effect 2 in a line of dialogue.
  • The line comes from Kai, who shares a voice actor with Garrus.
  • Unsurprisingly, the reference is a nod to the Garrus romance.

The game “Avowed” is currently available for early access, allowing those with the premium edition to start playing a few days before its official release. Many players have jumped at the opportunity to delve into Obsidian’s latest RPG, and one player has already discovered an entertaining easter egg.

The story centers on the character Kai, who is brought to life vocally by Brandon Keener. If his name (and voice) seem familiar to you, it’s likely because he also provided the voice for Garrus in the Mass Effect series. Intriguingly, Obsidian Entertainment chose to incorporate a nod to one of Keener’s well-known roles, as a fleeting mention of his romance from Avowed can be found within the game.

Avowed References Garrus‘ Iconic Romance Dialogue From Mass Effect 2

“I had reach, but she had flexibility”. Swoons.

In this scenario, the line is relevant when the game calls for a battle between the character and Kai. Kai then responds, expressing his confidence by stating, “I believe so. I have ample distance at my disposal.

It appears highly probable that this statement is drawing inspiration from Garrus’ dialogue in Mass Effect 2, where he discusses an old sparring match with a former comrade. He notes, “She had flexibility while I had reach,” which is a line often remembered by those who experience his romantic storyline.

It’s no wonder that Garrus fans are delighted with Kai thus far, given the chance to listen to that captivating voice once more. Regrettably, Obsidian Entertainment often steers clear of romantic entanglements in their games. However, those who have progressed far enough suggest there’s at least a hint of something with Kai. If not, one can always let their imagination run wild.
