Liara will be explaining to the Reapers she doesn't know where Shepard went after Wrex blew up the Chantry.

I have this feeling that when Shepard's story is over, we're going to jump ahead a couple hundred years and find out that Matriarch Liara is the narrator.

It appears that Bioware does want to continue the Mass Effect franchise so Liara with her long life span is an option, along with the other asari & krogans. I would prefer that Shepard continue but given all the variables, highly unlikely. But for now ... waiting on ME3!

Note: Liara would only be 300+ which is typically not even a maiden. That starts around 350 years as a rule, although it can start a little earlier if the asari melds frequently.

It was just a feeling, not something I hope for.

If Shepard survives ME3, I hope they do like Robin Hood and show the last moments of his/her life. That ways we can see that we won the day, Shepard is a hero, but his/her chapter in the Mass Effect series is OVER.

The Reapers are Templar abominations.

Which just made me realize the one biggest reason I vastly prefer Mass Effect over Dragon Age.

No Chantry. No Templars. Reason rules, instead of religion. The universe is clean and bright.

...and boring.

Reapers too smart to be templar abominations. 

I mean really they have immense magic at their command...but they run up to Hawke and start hitting him with their fists. 

...Really?

I don't want them to touch Shepard ever again, unless in form of a game where we can transfer our Shep from the trilogy. Don't want the same thing to happen as with Revan and Exile.

Considering this isn't LucasArts and they don't have an out-of-touch-with-his-creation HACK in charge, I don't think we have much to worry about.

If my femshep has any say about it, she will be melding frequently.

The movies being made to depict the First Contact War events instead of the gaming trilogy did relieved some of my fears thankfully. But we'll see how it goes.

However Bioware decides to close up the story, I think Shepard's ending should mostly be left up to the player. I'd rather it be open to interpretation and not be given rigid exposition from Liara or something. That just kills RP-ing for me.

That's all assuming Shepard doesn't die, of course.

I'm really hoping whether Shepard lives or dies is up to the player, like it is in Mass Effect 2... And not some terrible "Shepard can live if you're willing to sacrifice billions of lives" or something. I like my happy endings.

To stories... Happy endings to stories. Yes.

Can anyone think of a reason they would pick Kaiden/Ashley over Vega or some other new character for the s/s romance?

The best I got is that maybe they don't want the new starting or "leading" squadmates (who are always human) to be s/s and would rather it be for characters most gamers (of the opposite sex to that character) wouldn't see anyway. That would help avoid catching fire from the mainstream audience.

If it was solely Vega in case of male s/s LI, then gay players wouldn't have a single romance that would provide any kind of a trilogy experience. But it's basically confirmed that there'll be both new character s/s LI (Casey's "Some game sites saying 'previously straight chars now available for both m&f chars' not necessarily true. Will have some new LI's in #ME3" tweet) and Kaidan at least (Raphael Sbarge's statement at the Albuquerque Comic Expo) so I don't think we even have to worry about it. Looks like we'll be getting both and thank God. It's the best solution possible.

I'd advocate a more Dragon Age: Originsian method, myself. Mass Effect 2's way of handling it bothered me immensely, seeing as how you can only die by skipping a good third of the game. Even then, it takes a bit of purposefully-getting-others-carried-away-by-robot-bees to pull it off.

Yes, it would be hilarious to me if in order to stop the Reapers and survive the final battle, Shepard has to engage in a ritual with someone of the same gender. Then the miracle same gender baby could absord the essence of the last Reaper.

[bleetman]

Y'know, some time I want to see the scene just before the ME2 Miranda romance scene.

"Alright losers, get out. I'll be screwing Shepard down here for some reason, and you're not watching"
"But aren't you the only two on the ship with private quarters?"
"Less talking, more walking."
"Bosh'tet"

Come to think of it, I have to wonder if she chose the engine room simply because Jack lives underneath it.

Liara?

That's not all that far-fetched...well, if Shepard is female.

Firstly, whoever posted that Kaiduck picture had my eternal gratitude.

I agree that Shepard's story should be left ambiguous, perhaps with the Normandy flying off into the galaxy if we survive. Pinning it down too much without player input would be not ideal.

I also don't really like the thought of Liara narrating from a few hundred years into the future, although a scene with her immediately after the invasion's end talking about the reconstruction of the galaxy would be nice.

As to who will be the S/S romance if it's only new characters? Probably not Vega. If the Kaidan 'confirmation' is false, I'd expect there'll be another new character of some description.

Patrick Weekes (@patsquinade on Twitter) has been tweeting a lot recently about writing in dialogue for new characters. Ditto for Mac Walters, the lead writer - he's been planning the romance dialogue and scenes.
