Maybe have it take place way in the future. Just state that a large blast of energy swept through the galaxy knocking out some of the active relays and a lot of technology. Civilization is slowly recovering from this dark age. Now you are sent out into the galaxy to search for clues as to what truly happened & see what, if anything, is left.

This way you wouldn't fully retcon the events of the Shepard Trilogy. They could be vague about the specifics of what happened. But will be able to completely reset the stage with all new characters, ships, tech, worlds, and even races.

Man? I'm sure Bioware will put an option for both sexs or they'll get another ear ringing.

James? I thought he didn't pass the N7 program.

How could he pass or fail the program? He only found out they were interested in him after the Reapers invaded Earth. He never had a chance to even start the training program.

All active relays not some. The only potential exceptions would be the Omega-4 and the one that was used to get to Ilos.

I hope there will not be a ME4, before they fix ME3.

I sort of hope that there's a female too, x). I wouldn't mind if the mascot for the next protagonist was a female, that would be pretty neat. Sort of how canon-wise in KotOR, Revan is male and the Exile is female. I don't know why, but that thought came into my head.

I think it'll be a completely new character, I doubt it will be anybody that we know about now.

How about they make Mass Effect 4 and put the fixed ending part in the beginning of the game. How's that sound?

The problem is, with the endings as they are, They'll have to canonise only one to contiune the series... if Synthesis is the suppose 'best' ending, then that becomes canon. If Shepard surviving the destroy ending is the 'best' then that'll have ot become canon.

That being said, I wouldn't mind a precursor series, the Fall of the First Race and Rise of the Reapers.

The thought that they could even have entertained the idea of that guy being protagonist-worthy makes me urp my lunch. 

What, were they going to call the next one, "Mass Effect Shores"?  "Jersey Effect"? 


I keep hearing this. Is Vega actually anything like anyone from Jersey Shore? I wouldn't know since I don't watch it.



No James is nothing like that horrible show... I shudder that anyone even thinks that, futher more, I want James vega romanceable,(hopefully he will be included via dlc somehow), if so, that would kind of rule him out also, apart for the obviuos point that he is a set in stone male character, and Bioware games are reknown for giving players character creation choice, Using James would strip that option entirely.

In 5 out of 6 endings, Shepard is dead. Even if s/he hadn't died, the internal bleeding and just the extent of their injuries would have killed them, Cyborg or not. S/He's physically dying, and choking on their own blood from the sounds of the dialogue with Anderson. I actually think that by the end of it all Shepard did not want to come out of the war alive. I think that they wanted to die, wanted it all to be over.

Liara.


As much as I like Liara. I DO NOT want to see or hear from her AT ALL in any potential future Mass Effect game. Even if it's set like 500 years into the future. BioWare has a terrible reputation of totally retconning an established character and completely messing up their story. For the love of...whatever... no ME1 - 3 characters in ME4.

Not that it really matters. With ME3 in the shape that it is now, I do not have any interest in another ME title. Fix your shoddy work first BioWare, then we'll see.

I currently see no more Mass Effect games(At least in the near future 2-3 years).Maybe another failed MMO.I think everyone would love another trilogy but sadly it's just not gonna happen.

In other words, I don't want a ME4.



op,   think u win the ,'boobie prize' for most negatively responded topic lol u have to realise and accept 90% of pplewill not accept or buy me4 if that happens until bioware reward loyal fans faith and hope that ending amongsy other thinf side missions amngst other rhings are addressed!


90% hmm.
Tell me, where did you get that statistic from? The top of your head or your arse...


Talk bout taking things literally hello look at the big picture if u niot afraid to what proportio of the current topics care for a me 4 u tell me i sure it occured to u that my figure is a approximation i thought it was obvious do u prefer talk bout me 4 over 3 it so premature this topic


I'll admit, I was out of order with that reply. Let me try again in a more dignified manner. :innocent:

Although a lot of people claim on BSN that they will no longer purchase a future ME game (or Bioware game for that matter), many are simply saying so and the majority of those people will continue to purchse Bioware games. Also I'd like to point out that even if you're approximation was close (However,I think not. I'm just hypothesising) to being correct, that it would only apply to BSN users and BSN only makes up for a small minority of Bioware's sales.

My approximation would be that the ME4 boycotters will only lose Bioware 2 - 8% of their overall sales.

Sorry must be missing something why are we assuming there will be an ME4?

They haven't said there will be one; Shepard is dead in 90%+ of saves trying to continue the galaxy after that ending would require setting a canon ending and I don't think it was so overwhelmingly successful that EA will force the issue - unlike DA:O

If there is a ME4 then Wesley Crusher  Liara will be the leading man.

I don't know what you're talking about with "next". Mass Effect never had a leading man in my game. ;)

Honestly, if they make a new Mass Effect it's likely not going to be someone we know,.

I think when we say ME4 here what's meant is a SP RPG set in the ME universe. More like NWN2 than KotOR 2 on the spectrum of sequel-ness.

Setting a canon ending doesn't seem prohibitive to me. I'd prefer picking an outcome to what KotOR 2 did.

I disagree.

Histroy shows quite well how companies that get swalloed up by EA fares, and I cannot see anything that should make Bioware fare better than any of the others.

If anything, I see they going faster downhil because people are more aware by now of how EA influences game design into being poor quality when they take over companies.

They need to make a massive break from the EA mentality if they want to survive as a brand (Bioware, that is), and with the last 3-4 games from Bioware, I jsut don't see this happening. Quite the opposite actually, as there is less and less quality in their products, and more and more conveyer belt generic action dung from them.

The world is saturated with these games, yet EA insist to keep producing more instead of branching out. There's only one way that can end.

Where do people get the idea that technology breaks down at the end of ME3? Nobody ever says any such thing.

Well....

I guess it depends on how magicy the space magic is that targets 'synthetic life'.

Given that synthethic life are just different variations of wirings than synthetic not-life, how do you discern with a 'big blast of doom' ? (red ending)

And green ending... Does that mean even toasters become part organic too, and thus prone to aging and 'dying' ?

Speculations.... ;)

I think this could be rather subjective since I like ME2 and ME3 more than ME1. And I'm sure I'm not alone, in fact it stands a good chance that I'm be in the majority in saying that. Didn't both ME3 and ME2 sell better than ME1?

DA2 was an obvious flop in sales, but I still enjoyed it (Planning to replay soon).
(Irrelevant) And also I'm confident that DA3 will be bigger than DA:O, but I guess we'll find out in 2013 whether my gut instinct is correct or not though.

As to Bioware having better chances of.. surviving I suppose. I have no idea, but they will be around for quite a while yet I'm sure, also if everyone actually does boycott DA3 and ME4 I'll eat my hat.
