Adding the crooning pipes of Bastion's narrator to any video instantly increases its sexiness factor exponentially. It's just as true now as it's been in the past.

YouTuber Egger3rd whipped up a short machinima that sets Bastion's "The Kid" in the world of Skyrim. As "The Kid" makes his way to the chopping block, ol' Rucks digs into the unfortunate child's past, all while sending pleasant shivers down my spine. The 5:48 mark also sends shivers down my spine, though for a completely different reason.

Aw man, I hate the 5:48 mark. It destroys all that careful immersion for the sake of a cheap laugh.

The rest of it's awesome though, especially the climax. Glad it's an ongoing thing.

This video just convinced me to buy Bastion! Is the music also from that game? It's pretty sexy.

@Sir Legendhead

What about 1:32?

It is pretty random, though. Maybe that actually happens to your character during that scene, just can't tell cuz it's fixed first-person? Dunno why that would happen though...

Yup, all from the game. Bastion has some of my favorite music from last year.

Bastion has some of the best original, memorable music I have ever heard. Personally, it ranks up there with the tunes of Mario, Tetris, Zelda, and the like.

Why did his arms suddenly go into his body? Was he trying to be a transformer?
