No, I would love to see a different take on the Mass effect universe. Let me play as a Turian fighting humans in the first contact War or something different like that.

The universe is too rich. If George Lucas listened to the fans and hadnt made the next three movies in his universe, we would have missed out on the treasure that are the Star Wars prequels!!!!!



Just kidding, but the Mass Effect universe is too rich. It just wont focus on Shepard

[Chala]

I don't know, maybe more games based in the ME universe but not related with the trilogy, like half life and portal (yes both games are set on the same universe)

The movie is most likely going to be horrible guys so don't get your hopes up, look how bad they bungled Perseus' story (clash of the titans) and look how old it is. Hollywood will most likely dumb it down so people who have never played the series know what's Going on.

Which is always hilarious, when you consider the fact that in all of these cases the number one customer is going to be fans of the game in the first place. It's like how the Silent Hill movie changed Cheryl Mason's name to Sharon for no reason whatsoever. Those unfamiliar with the series wouldn't be bothered at all by the change since they wouldn't know any better, so all it did was ****** off fans.

 I was thinking about what might follow ME3 and I think I came to the conclusion that I want nothing to follow ME3.  I mean...I love Mass Effect, there is no doubt about that.  But I think running things into the ground is a horrible idea.

Take this for example.  I believe that Stephen King's Dark Tower books are the greatest fantasy series of books ever written.  And when it ended, I knew it was over.  That made me sad but at the same time I knew it was selfish to want the story to just continue forever because anything beyond what the creator wanted to make is just destructive to the vision of the creator. There were probably a hundred ways King could've made that story continue, but he didn't.  He put his ego and his money out of the way and he let it end.  And because of that I have nothing but fond memories of that series.  I always will and it will always be one of my favorite things and nobody can take that away.

I'm all for them making movies of Mass Effect and comics and exposing the Shepard story to as many people as possible, as they are doing with The Dark Tower.  But as far as making more Mass Effect video games.  I don't think they need to...nor do I want them to.

The ME universe is something that will be with us for a long time. You don't create a new IP and only do three games for it.

If I had to guess I'm thinking that ME will be kinda like Dragon Age in that David Gaider said he doesn't see any reason for Dragon to end. No time soon anyway. There are plenty of stories left to tell. I have a feeling Bioware feels the same way about ME.

And this is a good thing IMO.

I will never understand the "I hope they dont make more games" BS

Why do you care? Would it somehow ruin your enjoyment of ME1 2 and 3? You dont have to play it, therefore whats the point of desiring nothing else comes? How does it affect your life in any way?

ditching Mass Effect as a setting would be really, really dumb. The

This x2.

Either:

Go to the story of another character, with choice of species this time like a Sci-Fi RPG should.

Go MMO.

But both ideas years after the events of the ME trilogy,

Or:

The fall of the Protheans prequel.

No way, the universe finally started to develop a strong sense of personality in ME2. I can see a lot of interesting stories being told without the Reapers or Shepard.

But DON'T go backwards. We don't need prequels, we need to move onwards.

Going backwards is easy than onwards.

So let's not take the easy route.

I know what happens at Shanxi, I've read the codex. I don't need to play a relatively minor battle, especially when the only purpose it could serve is fanwank.

Then how BW is going to reflect the decisions in ME series to the new game series if it is not a prequel?

[JamieCOTC]

Don't care. It will end for me, however as I'm certain after ME3 the series will venture into MP, FPS, and possibly even MMO territory.

[Someone With Mass]

To be able to see more of the ME universe would be most appreciated, but the trilogy can end without any spin-offs.

[Alaethyr]

It would be interesting to play ME as a different race, not an MMO, but perhaps getting the ability to play as a merc Krogan, or a turian soldier, or even a volus... the world is expansive however it was so focused on the alliance and humanity for the trilogy, I want to play as a different race, with different answers in the dialogue, without having to say "Humanity this, alliance that" a lot of the time

[Merchant2006]

I wouldn't mind seeing how BioWare took the game onwards after Mass Effect 3. Part of me doesn't want it to end but alas, I don't know what will be next... I'll miss Shepard.

Yeah! And the storyline will be Mass Effect 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9... etc! Joy for EVERYONE!

I look at Mass Effect the same way I look at Star Trek. I loved TNG and when it ended, I moved on to DS9.

When Sheppard's story ends, I wouldn't mind a new series within the Mass Effect universe. Perhaps with a new customizable character whose default will be a girl.

As for a ME MMO. I might pass out on it since I'm not comfortable with playing MMOs. I'll never leave my room if this were to happen.

Certainly not. Like others have said, the ME universe is nicely fleshed out. I'd hate for all of that effort to go to waste.

How is having 3 epic games letting it go to waste?

[Schneidend]

I think Pilot means that there will still be a lot to explore in Mass Effect's rich universe after the credits roll on ME3, and I agree.



They took the time to come up with a believable setting and they should utilize it further.

[Dougy Fresh]

yes the ME universe is to vast to not have spin off games... it would probably hurt more if they didnt do it

[SkittlesKat96]

I just don't want them to milk it too much, I'm all for a multiplayer focused spin off and a game in another time and maybe even a Real time strategy game but they should know when to stop.

Multiplayer has a lot of potential, they don't even have to make it Player vs. player if they don't want to, they could make it a firefight game where you do objectives with a squad and hold off waves of enemies.
EDIT: Also during this multiplayer you can do things like control turrets, utilize sniper positions, use biotics, and choose perks and stuff like that. You also have a few reinforcement soldiers.
Perk examples: Extra shielding pack, offhand ammo, incendiary ammo, disruptive ammo, extra speed/athletic pads, etc.

Wow. I firefight/horde type online play sounds like an amazing idea to consider. A second this. And as I've said before, I'd love to play a first contact war FPS.

[Warlokki]

Personally i'd like to have more games set in ME universe after ME3.

A lot of possibilities for stories and different games. Of course any such project should be either made by BW or other competent game studios... stories especially (Ehh, get Obsidian do something. Just give them enough resources for a large QA and time for polishing..).

Of course any such shouldn't be played safe either. While both COD Black Ops and Halo Reach are good games, both lack ambition and don't even refine concepts from earlier games really, storywise both are rather weak too.

If you don't like/want to play other ME games beside the trilogy, don't play them. No one is forcing you to. What you don't know doesn't affect you. Consider them non-canon in case you do hear something about them...

No. The ME universe is too rich and has too many possibilities to just end at one man/woman's story. There are all kinds of different directions a new game could take that leaving it after just three games would be an insult to the world the Devs have made.

Thank you, we should have more faith in this wonderful series.

[Terror_K]

The thing is, I've already been burned by the likes of Star Trek, Star Wars, BSG, Stargate etc. when it comes to the ruination of their IPs through various means, be it milking of the franchise, changing it up for a new audience or just plain suckage. To me Mass Effect has the potential to be the Star Wars or Star Trek of this century for me, as I enjoy the entire universe on a level that transcends the games, which is why I've also purchased things like the novels, the comics, the soundtrack, several lithographs, various pieces of apparel, etc. as well.

So if I want to start getting into the Mass Effect universe and investing in it as a fan, I don't want to see it starting to get milked and turning to crap. It's not as easy to simply ignore later products when you're trying to be a hardcore Mass Effect fan. And when the second game comes along and already begins to show signs of IP degradation, I'm not exactly sure I want it to be going too much further than the third game unless it pulls itself back together. I'd prefer Mass Effect take a more Firefly-esque route if that were to be the case: incredibly short, but mostly brilliant.

Also, it doesn't help that we've got a movie on the way apparently, which if most modern Hollywood adaptations are anything to go by is going to be absolutely awful and next to nothing like Mass Effect except in name.

You didn't like Battlestar?

And I liked Firefly (for the characters) but the universe itself was already a bit wobbly  short as it ran.

Set the next story anywhere from a couple of decades to a few centuries later so that the political and social status quo have had time to be restructured.


The reason a lot of IP's got milked and fell apart over the years was they kept going over the same ground.

Voyager/Enterprise/Prequels what have you all covered territory we didn't need to see because it was only ever just background or had seen enough of.

KoTOR worked because it was covering an era independant of its predecessors.
