What about a game where you play as an exiled Quarian who goes to live with his/her cousin on the Citadel? And then he/she gets involved with the Turian mafia, and goes all over the Citadel working for and with cool people? (cookies if you get the reference)


some of us don't want to play as a Quarian you know<_<

I don't know if this was mentioned before but, a new storyline based around a mercenary. It does not have to be a mercenary but some sort of multi-species group. That way not only could you customize your character, you could also choose what race you wanted to play as. The storyline would be similar but with a game that already gives you so many options, this would be a step in the right direction for the game.

I think instead of looking into the future ME4 should be set in the distant past, involving a historical conflict from the series. I'd love to play a Unification War game and see the Turians and the galaxy in general in a far more primitive state without many of the technologies taken for granted in the main series, and explore Turian culture and history some more, and see alien races defined on their own instead of in relation to humans.

More RPG elemenets would also be nice--bringing back inventory, prestige classes, a large skill tree, etc.

 I would love to see a new game with a new twist.  I think there are 3 things that have worked in the past that could really be expanded on.

1) Relationships.  These are optionals and take a back seat to the main story, I'd like to see more of this.

2) Aliens have always been part of the story.  I would love to see a main character take this role in mass effect.  I love how certain TV dramas get into the whole roles and parts of alien cultures.  Even a splash of this would be rewarding.  Perhaps a split game where two sides must work toward a common goal, and the game jumps between the two or more points of interest.  Shephard has been a big icon, might consider making him an NPC.  I'd love to see an Asari MC myself.

3)  What's on the other side?  I'd love to see more of Shephard inside the rift, possibly stuck in that, or some other part of the galaxy, with limited means of communication to a homeworld, that no doubt is getting shafted hard by the Reapers.  Maybe there are new races to meet, and get things together in two separate galaxy areas.

What if Bioware made Mass Effect 4 take place on Earth during the events of ME3? It would allow them to introduce new characters, and allow for another set of games featuring a new star/squad.

and thats why mass-effect-3 director said :((its not the last youll hear of commander shepard))
you can see this in ::
http://www.g4tv.com/...mander-shepard/

Unfortunately the creators of the game and many of the followers could end up ruining the title because of their inability to let go and move on. Shepard is dead. Any ME4 game could incorporate Shepard through emotional scenes involvoing things such as dreams and flashbacks from old or new characters. It very much appears that ME4 will be going down the prequel route, which in my opinion is the wrong move in terms of taking the game further.

I don't really see how it could not be a prequel based on the fact that the outcome of the universe depends on what chose you made as Shepard. That being said I agree that ME4 should not be Shepard. With such a great universe there has to be more they could base it off of. 

If they really fealt like sticking to the humans as the main race in the story line then a good idea would be to base th game around the first contact war. It could also be right after that when all the races are just meeting the humans and they don't understand them or there culture.

I just don't see the point continuing as a prequel/spin-off in the form of events that have taken place before the showdown with Shepard and the reapers. If history tells us anything, it's that there will always be wars. There can be new threats and new wars that threaten the existance of the species. There may have been screen shots of peace after Shepard made his choices, but how long does peace really last for ?

If we take Leviathan, many people accept it, and quite a few think it should have been part of ME3 and was perhaps a bit expensive or pointless. To me there was a feeling of shallowness to an extent because i didn't see the point in making an ally for a war which had already been fought. If any spin off or prequel is based on events before the fight with the reapers, many people will see it as sort of pointless. I'd say 90-95% of ME3 gamers really enjoyed the game, but any attempts to have a game based on earlier events won't be anywhere near as successful.

My opinion right now is that the Mass Effect brand and story should certainly continue. However i think ME4 should not have Shepard in physical form. It should either be based in a time where some of the ME 1/2/3 characters can still be a part of the game, or even a complete new era altogether.


I think it's quite a difficult thing for Bioware to decide. Either deicision could have a mixed reception. They have to create something that comercially appeals to everyone. I'm certain they will expand on events that happened before the Mass Effect 1. Infact i read an article that alluded to this before ME3 came out.

I think a Mass Effect 4 would be best presented with a new character, linked to the previous trilogy by having the new character the child of one of Shepard's crew members, so maybe 20-30 years into the future, after the Mass Relays have been rebuilt (would kinda suck without them) and with a new, original storyline.

I also chose to destroy the Reapers, but technically you can't really have him alive in ME4 because not everyone chose the same ending. He is alive as far as making a particular choice if he actually does survive afterward, but it was already decided it's the end of the road for Shepard in terms of Mass Effect, and for some people he's actually dead. He could even be dead for the destroy option, as moving doesn't mean he actually survived. So yes i will rephrase it, Shepard perhaps isn't dead for everyone, but his character has more or less been killed of by Bioware as far as his story goes. To be honest with you, i got confused by what happened in the end. I wasn't dissapointed by the endings, i was dissapointed by the handling of it. The lack of respect had Electronic Arts grubby paws written all over it.

If they do make another game in the Mass Effect universe hopefully you will be able to choose your race. (Like a Drell)

Thats exactly what I was thinking they should do because the only reason I ever played the multiplayer in me3 was to play as my favorite race.

your right all endings was not same, but do you remmember me2 ending that shepard died,?and players couldnt import their saving in me3 ?. i think if shepard is alive in me3 ending you can continue with her/him in me4.and if she/her is dead you should start a new hero .and that why bioware said we should keep me3 saves.

Set ME 4 after the Reaper invasion and have the starting exactly like ME1 where you looking out the window and here Udina, Anderson and Admiral Hacket talking about selecting you for a mission.
I.e. a new hero.....
Except this time is Hacket, Shepard and the new ambassador etc. Take the RED / Destroy ending as the new canon and have Shepard appear like Hacket - scared, broken ( eye or leg etc) and taking a desk-side / Captain Anderson / strategic role.
In short Shepard survived but barely (no further explanation needed).....insert guest characters cautiously (E.g.a cut scene of Shapard’s love interest and Shep talking or the LI berating Shep for going hard on the new hero /rookie etc) as appropriate.
In this way you can start a new story but 'close the book' at the same time.

I think that's wishful thinking Natalie. You're basically saying Mass Effect 4(if they call it that) will be 2 separate games for 2 separate main charcters, as there's no way a new main character could continue Shepards story. The only way Shepard will be in the next game would be if the next game is centred around events before or during mass effect 1/2.

I've messaged a forum mod with my idea. It's a long shot, and they will probably laugh it off as another message from some random moron.

However, i'll not put up my idea on here incase they like it. If they tell me it's garbage or i get no reply, i'll put my idea up here to see what other people think.

Shep is dead/done as the main character. Any attempt to try and make a story after defeating the Reapers, one of the most efficient and successful antagonists in video game history, would be wholly disappointing and awful. it would be worse than if the endings were written by Philip J. Fry.

You got the First Contact War, the N7 space marines, Jack's background as a galactic criminal, Garrus' stint as Archangel, a Justicar with a thousand years worth of stories to tell, and other characters and events that they can build a game around. And that's just if they want to use established characters. The Mass Effect universe is gigantic. It's a waste to just call it good after three games (even if the series didn't stick the landing).

i believe base on bioware fans' support that there will be another mass effect game, but they would have up their scale to mass effect 2 standard (orginal and mind blowing choices story line). Example you feel the effect that the player had done in mass effect to mass effect 2, but there was lack in that 3 base on what planet you had reviting those planets been on or people that had met. In short, the next mass effect game have to keep the feel of what player done and move it next step making it better.
