I'm okay with the Destroy Ending being canon.
I'll view Control, Synthesis and Reject as alternate endings.
That's fine with me.
I loved all the endings and I do love alternate endings.
But as stated above destroy is the decision that makes the most sense.
Not to mention that the worst ending in ME2 was also retconned as it wouldn't work with ME3. Way I see it, it's just one possible outcome for your ME universe.
Please take the customizing of everything back to the way mass effect 1 was but with a better skill tree list and upgrade. I loved that about me1 was all the customizing. Was so neat and way better then #2 or 3's way of doing it.
High EMS Destroy Ending Canon. This is the only way to go.
I am not okay with a canonized outcome where my Shepard butchered EDI and the geth to stop the Reapers.

I wouldn't ditch everything.
However I would like a large variety of ammo mods.
I approve of this, for the most part. I enjoyed coming across an abandoned outpost, only to discover that something horrible happened to the people there. In ME1, though, it was kind of part of the larger narrative, with the reapers and all, so I'd like something like this to fit as well.
I would have loved to be able to visit Arcturus Station some day. Of course that got kinda blown up in ME3. But regardless I love all the ships and stations you can visit in ME1&2. Gives the games a nice feeling of being in space. Needs more space locations, and asteroids, moons and whatnot. Why not discover some ship you then have to walk on the outside to get in. Let me use that spacesuit / armor to be in actual space.
This has been mentioned before.
What if the entire Mass Effect trilogy was a legend?
Hundreds of years later, no one is really sure whether or not Commander Shepard was real.
It is not clear whether or not the Reapers existed.
No clarification. Now we can have new adventures in the Mass Effect Universe.
For those who say the ME3 endings happened, good for you. They did.
For those who say the ME3 endings did not happen, good for you. They did not.
Because there is no clarification as to whether or not they did happen both viewpoints are equally valid.
Now lets tell a new story completely unrelated to the events of the trilogy.
This sucks
6. Making a big game for the sake of it then filling it with lots of fetch quests and calling that content is not what gamers want. The size of the area is less important than what we have to do in the areas we have to explore. Please give us interesting stuff to do.
This is the most important one, DA:I is a good game, but that kind of broke the immersion.
Ditch the crappy endings in ME3 all together and center this new Mass Effect on something else please for the love of god. Also bring back advanced, and I mean advanced Customizations to keep the games RPG's like they're supposed to be, and make sure the new endings aren't like ME3's at all.
I'm big on immersion in role playing games. It's not much of a 'Role' to be 'Playing' without it. So one thing I missed from ME2 and ME3 was real time elevators and embarkation/disembarkation. Yes you got to where you where going faster in the later games but it lacked that immersion quality and I'd love to see it restored to ME4. I also never liked the SR2's Engine room. It felt too small, too nuclear reactor-like rather than ME1's full on sci-fi glowing pulses and spinning bits.

After playing the original endings in ME3 then hearing about ME4 in the works, it's always made me wonder how on earth they're going to reconcile a fourth game with those endings as canon? We're either all biological/synthetic hybrids, Shepard committed genocide or the Reapers mysteriously disappeared, leaving the entire galaxy at the mercy of the Leviathan race to once more dominate the galaxy with mind control.
Then there's the issue that due to the fact that since only the Prothean's so far have managed a working prototype of a Mass Relay and all the Reaper-built ones have exploded, the entire C-space race's fleets are stranded as refugees on an earth that has suffered near total infrastructure destruction, and even assuming there's enough food to feed them all, half of the races can't even eat human foods because it's poison to them. I mean, the ME3 ending has more holes than a slice of Swiss cheese. If they've any sense they'll retcon the whole damn ending.
There's another thing I wanted to say. I know Bioware aren't shy when it comes to plagiarising Warhammer 40K but some of those screenshots of the 'dark world' look suspiciously Necron in their design. How about some originality?
Please do not make it human only I have literally zero interest in playing another boring human I've played them to death and will not be buying human only games anymore "sigh" but that's just me. Anyway good luck with your game.
I won't go as far as saying I won't play it.
However I would really love to play as a non human.
Asari
Turian
Krogan
etc.
It wouldn't even bother me if I don't get race specific dialogue or don't get all the races I want.
Just being able to play as an alien would be good enough.
I'm the polar opposite to this. This isn't Dragon Age, Mass Effect is about Humanity's place in the Galaxy as relative newcomers. The very thing that has made the Mass Effect superior in every way to the Dragon Age franchise is having a strong lead character and an equally strong (ME3 ending aside) narrative surrounding them. Start having multiple races and that narrative is diluted weakening the lead character. For example, Shepard's background, his N3 training, his first human Spectre, the distrust of Humans in many quarters etc. - none of this is achievable if you start having multiple races. It's actually a shame that as a result of 'that ending' ME4 won't revolve around Shepard. In short, Bioware are at their best when telling stories.
Playing as a human or alien is so far down my list of concerns you can't even see it from where I'm standing.

My greatest concern is the possibility of pretending everything never happend or making it so far in the future or in another galaxy where all we did doesn't matter

They have to use some type of cheese to get around those Dogfart endings. It wasn't a squeaker either. It left smatterings on the back wall and a hole in my floor bigger than the planet Jupiter. I was stumbling around trying to figure out why my cigarette tasted so bad and the lights suddenly went out.
Has anyone seen the cat?
Ditch the crappy endings in ME3 all together
Bioware aren't ditching the endings they've said many times its how they wanted to end.
Would love to see races rebuilding a bit say 10 years after Shepard's sacrifice. Regardless of the ending in ME3 leave Shepard out of the picture. Or if you want to give him a cameo do it with him in a way that leaves no doubt that he was injured in such a way as to make any return to active duty impossible. Let him settle down with his LI have some kids and stay very low key.
The question I have always asked myself since ME1 was why was Sovereign afraid of letting organics self evolve into space independent of the mass relays. This would be a nice time to show a race that made the reapers afraid, but who work with the protagonist who ever that is, against a new threat or conglomerate seeking to harm the weakened galaxy.
What ever it is, I will be there rooting for the underdog. 
Bioware aren't ditching the endings they've said many times its how they wanted to end.
Which shows just how obstinate they're being. It's universally agreed that the ME3 ending was so bad as to rank as the most hated ending of all time. They don't have to remake ME3 to remake the ending. They can put a prologue scene in to ME4 that retcons that piece of crap. Unless of course ME4 intends to revolve around the whole fooking galaxy stuck on earth.

ME3 may not have the best ending but its definitely not the worst ending of all time. Also Bioware aren't going to retcon it either they said several times they are sticking with their guns the endings are here to stay whether people like them or not.
Uhm excuse me but ME3's ending (EC+Leviathan) was awesome. It's actually the best ending to a video game I ever played. You might hate it, but don't go around saying that everyone hates it too. There are lots of people who like the ending, it's not because you don't see them that they don't exist.
Then I suggest you google it and have a look around. You are in a minuscule minority, but your opinion is yours. The majority would disagree though. If Bioware had the balls to throw up a poll asking whether people wanted it retconned I think it's a safe bet that 'yes' would be a landslide winner. Just because you like it doesn't change the fact that most don't. Since the ending broke just about every single piece of established law in the franchise, it's hard to imagine how ME4 can even exist without at least some minor retconning going on. Either established law needs changing or the ending does. But we're covering old ground and this thread isn't asking for another moan about the ending to a three year old game.

There were two polls. One before EC and one after it. Before Extended Cut, yes, people who didn't like the ending were in a majority. After the Extended Cut, the split was about 50/50. So no, it's not a minuscule minority of people who like the ending.
