Q: Can you explain the concept of Mass Effect Force Powers?
A: To understand Mass Effect powers you need to understand what mass effect is. Mass effect is a single newly discovered physics phenomenon similar to gravity. Some people can control the phenomenon, which is actually yet another phenomenon. These people can control and bend the laws of physics, which grants them unique powers unlike anything you see in other games or TV shows.
There are two different manifestations of this physical phenomenon: light and dark. For example, the dark energy abilities: if you imagine if we were able to affect another physical force kind of like gravity, then what kinds of things would you be able to do with it? Like being able to create a small singularity that pulls everything towards it (Dark Pull) or pushes everything from it (Dark Push). You can also throw things around (Dark Throw), which is pretty cool when things in the environment start flying towards your enemies causing damage. The light energy powers are mostly supportive and used for healing and calming down.
The dark powers are very extreme, of course, and Commander Shepard will be able to use them very effective. Grabbing someone's collar telekinetically always gets everyone's attention.
UPDATE: This interview is 100% fake and has been debunked by BioWare.
