 Assuming this extended cut goes well, indoctrination theory or something...

Do you think mass effect 4 will happen?

Halo 3 was supposedly the end of the halo trilogy. This is it, finish the fight, yeah! was their slogan. It was sold as the end of the trilogy. the war ended but the story didn't, and now halo 4 is commin.

Mayhaps they've pulled a halo and have every intention of continuing the story in a full game.

Unless they completely retcon the ending it will be very difficult to pull off.  As of a few days ago, Jennifer Hale STILL had not been contacted, so its pretty safe to assume starbrat is going to be in EC which means GG trilogy.

EA probably put them make MP ME to compete with CoD. MP clearly was "beta" or test for future game

[Sweawm]

Give it a few years. Remember that they are still going to do the movie of the first game. If the movie is popular enough, and they complete the trilogy (Hopefully dropping the terrible ending), then perhaps they just might work on creating a forth installment with the Canon set out by the movies.

[Mister_Hands]

Unlikely. They've intended 3 to be the final game in the series for quite a long time.

Prequels are not out of the question, though. In fact, I'm pretty sure that, if it hasn't begun already, they will have started development of a prequel game. Shanxi? Krogran Rebellions? Turian Unification War? No way to tell. But I would bet any amount of money on a prequel being released in the not too distant future.

Yeah, there will be more Mass Effect. They had loads of interviews about this.

But it's been established many times that this game is the end of Shepard's story. Whether they'll stick to that or not...who knows.

You know some people did claim BioWare basically "torched the franchise and ran," so it would be very difficult for anyone (be it themselves or someone else) to make another one. And when you look it how difficult a sequel would be given the events of the ending, it's not hard to see why they support that theory. 

However there will be another Mass Effect game. EA won't stop making them until they stop making money. And if BioWare doesn't want to make another one, they'll just get someone else who will.

[HITMAN629]

With sales like this. Of course they are going to make more.

[daecath]

It's a distinct possibility that they'll make one more. If they don't change the ending, then I hope they do. It'll give me one more game to not buy from them, and a game that I'll enjoy not buying.

[Zolt51]

Probably not another ME for the next few years at least. They might have been thinking about an MMORPG set in ME series future, but I think that's off the table now for a variety of reasons.

Better for them to just start on a new franchise.

In my opinion if I was EA I'd have told Hudson to do 2 things with ME3:

1 - Don't screw it up

2 - End ME3 so we can have a ME4 and MOAR monies!

But it seems they didn't...

[Baihu1983]

Yearly if EA get their way and it truely will be nothing but a typical 3rd person shooter

EA doesn't care about quality.

They care about quantity and microtransactions.

[Robhuzz]

EA will never stop searching (read: trying to turn and thereby ruin existing IPs) for their very own yearly COD series so yes there will be more ME games. Though they most likely won't even be a shadow of what they used to be.

[Cyne]

Of course they will. They aren't going to drop a lucrative franchise like Mass Effect just like that. Expect more content and full games, maybe an MMO in the future. I am pretty sure ME3 was the end of Shepard's story, though.

[Flextt]

If they think the outrage didn't hurt Bioware, they are just deluding themselves. The game could have been sold for 60€ a few months straight, if the outrage didn't happen due to excellent previous sales and marketing. Furthermore, with a lot among its core fans disgruntled, merchandise sales are likely to be lower than before and that is the stuff, that keeps a franchise alive.

[vixvicco]

I think they will make more, provided their reputation does not get any worse. Who knows what the future holds? Depending on how they continue it, I think I would buy any future Mass Effect games; I'm assuming Shepard's story would be over and we'd have a new protagonist.

[twizbuck]

Guarantee they will. People will buy it simply because the title is Mass Effect, and they'll ride that cash cow until it goes the way of has-been games of years past.

I am willing to bet on there being more ME games.
It's as clear as the light of day, EA have succesfully created a videogame behemoth that has shifted milions of games, books, comics, action figures and soon will make its way to the silver screen. Asking if there'll be a new ME is like asking if there'll be a new Mario, Resident Evil or Street Fighter.

The only question is: what will it be? If EA don't want to deplete the franchise, they'll need to make "real" Mass Effect games from time to time. EA will make spinoffs and they will be loved. But they'll need to make ME1-3 style games from time to time. They can't just make MMO's, FPS's or Kart-racers.

Just like Nintendo can't just make Mario Party, Mario Kart and Mario Strikers. Despite those games being profitable, if they'd choose not to make real Mario platformers from time to time, Mario would be dead by now.

After 3 the mass effect series no longer gets an auto buy from me. Shall wait for user feedback from now on with Bioware games.

[robertm2]

yes. it made ea too much money for them to not make another one regardless of how much they butcher it.

[Eire Icon]

ME 3 was the end of the Shepard arc, not Mass Effect

Its already been confirmed that its not the end by Bioware hasn't it

[Douglas-042]

Another Question: Do you think Activision is gonna make another CoD?

[rpgfan321]

Please don't. Keep it as a trilogy, jeez.

It's "confirmed" that Casey Hudson has no intention of making a game that takes place after ME3.

It's not an actual confirmation that there's a new ME game in the works. And it's in no way a confirmation that EA will allow BW to finish Shepard off this way.
