Sweet! Any comments?

I can't wait I would love a game on the prothean-reaper war.

Who doesn't love an unwinnable battle?

[Kenshen]

Not impressed at all.

@rifneno: Javik won


Besides, the protheans fought in a completely different galaxy of lore and cultures and races. There is so much there to be discovered!

Great, the only one I know I want dead lives.

"See exciting new places, meet breathtaking new cultures... and know that they're about to be obliterated."  Yeah, I don't envy the marketing team that has to sell that.

It's not like the moral of the story has to be restrained to the current timeline. You know that life never gives up in the end. For the marketing team? They can make the circumstances as horrific as possible; that you know life will rise again out of the ashes and live on to fight another day is ******* bad***.

Halo Reach sold fine. 

Knowing that there's no hope can lead to entirely new ways of telling the story, and a kill-em-all type plot can be really effective done well. Ever read Consider Phlebas? That did it brilliantly.

James Tiberius Kirk.

Did I win?

[Caldari Ghost]

Ever see Sunshine? It's just like that. The ways in which the prothean leaders will have to struggle to do whatever they can to stop the reapers from getting what they want. It would make for a much darker game than mass effect. And it would end with Javik, not knowing what will happen but knowing what might, that he could either die or wake up to nothing? You know for certain he went into cryo expecting to fight the reapers long after his race had lost.and of the dire circumstances regarding the other personnel. It makes perfect sense that it wouldn't be a stupid idea of a game.

Plus there's Titanic, at least one Age of Empires II campaign, plenty of Doctor Who episodes. (Examples include The Waters of Mars, and Victory of the Daleks states that the daleks are going to win right there in the title!)

Three very different stories, very different genres, told in very different ways (some good, some a bit crap!) right off the top of my head. Just cos you don't have the imagination to make a good narrative out of it, Rifneno, doesn't mean it's barren storytelling ground. Exposes more of your own limitations than the story's.

@Jzadek a Banks fan? My first Culture book was Matter Love his work!

[Rifneno]

Yes, an angle that worked for a chick flick (and BTW, pick up a history book because a lot more people survived the Titanic than the Prothean war) would clearly work for Mass Effect. Because the audiences are SO similar.

We need an eye roll smiley.

I thought I was the only one in this section of the internet! Matter's the only one I haven't read, actually. I was midway through it, but it got lost on holiday. 
Fantastic writer, I'm lucky enough to live in the nearest big city to him, so I've seen him talk and he's as good at that as he is at writing. Awesome guy.

We provided many more examples. Also, how does the chick-flickness of it at all affect the sad-ending? People like drama in whatever genre. People also provided a british SF dramedy, a RTS and some hardcore Science Fiction.

@ Jzadek  I'm sorry you lost Matter. The middle is where it really me addicted(as in, could NOT stop reading it). Hopefully whoever finds it will start thinking about new things by the way, Choubri Holse is my favorite character you?

@Rifneno. You bashed the Titanic but not Sunshine?

I know what the hell Titanic is.

[Caldari Ghost]

@ Yajuu Omoi. That is such a brilliant post! Lol

[Caldari Ghost]

Then watch sunshine the proportions of death on the titanic to the protheans are pretty disconnected anyways. And by that I mean the cause of death, and the purpose. > ice berg versus space magicians. You do the math >.>

If you liked Matter, then you'll love 'Surface Detail'. However, my fav Culture novel is still Use of Weapons, with Excession just behind.

We are releasing more multiplayer content and we have more single-player stories coming throughout the next six months, including Omega which is coming in the Fall.

well, um...
YAY

[Tallgeese_VII]

So not interested in the universe where everything is destined to be dictated by a certain little kid.
I truly enjoy ME3 MP, but I lost interest in ME3 story-line and lore once I saw the ending of ME3.(edited)

I would love to see a new ME game based on a neighboring galaxy, perhaps the original home of the Leviathans, a galaxy in which they conquered, dominated for millions of years only to have the galactic species develop an immunity to their control, rebel and then the Leviathans retreated to the Milky Way.  Perhaps in this story we would find many parallels with our own galaxy, our own civilization and within our own lives.



or..............



The next TRILOGY starts off with the tension right as the Krogan master nuclear fission, then throughout the game we see the complete destruction of Tuchanka and seemingly the end of a once proud and fierce species.  Sequel fast forwards to first contact with the Salarians and the agreement to fight the Rachni in exchange for help rebuilding their home planet, technology and a place in the galactic community.  Then the series finale starts right before the Krogan Rebellion and ends with the dawn of the Genophage.
