I vote sequel. Like so many I'm really interested in seeing how galactic civilization picks up the pieces after the Reaper War.

I'd love it if Bioware was able to take all 3 endings into account and make wildly different beginnings for ME4 based on the various endings to ME3 but I realize that isn't really their style. I suppose the best I can hope for is that their are a few references to Shepard's choices and they find a believable way to meld all 3 endings into a single beginning for the new game.

I hate to point this out but prequels generally suck.

Star Trek was a money making machine until the prequel series 'Enterprise' was cancelled because of poor ratings. Star Wars... well George Lucas has never been thought of in the same way since the Phantom Menace.

If the biggest rival Sci-Fi franchises fell from a great height, flat on their faces in the mud, trying to do prequels I would avoid one like the plague if I were Bioware. Yes I know that means risking upsetting some fans by 'canonizing' one ending, but I can't see another option.

It has to be a sequel!


Star Trek 11 was amazing.

Sequel, we already know what happpend before, and no one will really care, proof Star War prequels. I couldn't give a crap about what happened to Atkin before he bacame Vader. Definitely sequel they should keep moving forward not take stupid steps backward.

Before if it has characters from the trilogy, if that's off the table, then after.

Sequel! Please, please, please don't make a prequel game or prequel trilogy. There will be zero mystery, zero wonder, zero interest to me in a game whose outcome I know before I even play it. I knew that DAO would end with a dragon fight, and I knew ME1 would end with a Saren/Reaper fight... but I didn't know what happened after and I didn't know how it would all go down. With an ME prequel, I know what happens after the boss fight and I know how it all turns out. I'm just not interested in that.

If you want to make a prequel, make expansion packs for ME3 and use those as prequel stories. I can't promise I'll buy them, but I would most likely be interested enough in "Human-Turian First Contact" or "Asari Breach the Citadel" or "Krogan Rebellion" stories that I would still play them. But a full game or a full trilogy? The years of development would be wasted and a huge opportunity would be lost.

An ME3 sequel story has endless potential to dazzle. You should go in that direction, in my opinion.

I don't care. Don't tweet something just to let us know you'll be involved in ME4. Don't kickstartering yourself by fullfiling our dirty desires.

Don't ask. Do something creative.

Hm. Yeah...eh...I only want a prequel if they have an awesome idea for it And I would only want a singular prequel. A prequel trilogy would be overkill.

Actually, I hope they just do something good that's inspired. Just make it good. Meh. Just make a sequel. : V

Sequel: Because anything can happen.

Prequel sucks. Prequel = the player being aware of anything noteworthy that already has happened.

Besides even if there wasn't then you'd still be dumbfounded because it's not mentioned in the codex to be taken as canon which is terrible.
It just undermines the value of ME since it either contradicts the history and knowing the Reapers exist but not being able to do anything about it, kind of makes everything in that time meaningless.
Even if you have to use one of the ABC or even D endings you'd still be able to work around it and not let it (No pun intended) have a mass effect on the lore or the player's hard work.
Well there's a lot more reasons for a sequel but I'll keep it short since I've talked too much anyway.

I want a sequel.

We already know what happened worth of note in the past. So no prequel thank you. Expand the story. Don't try to reinvent small parts of it.

Sequel!! I want to see if bioware can make us believe in the universe again, move beyond the controversy of the ending and just blow us away. (I also want to see if the synthesized husks become gainfully employed...)

If a prequel is what they decide they want, then preferably a series of standalone games set way before humanity enters the galactic stage. Maybe a game about Aria or Rael'Zorah or the final days of the Rachni Wars or Krogan Rebellions. No Protheans and their failed war against the Reapers, No Cerberus backstory.

I HATE prequels. Sequel of some sort. Or even something happening at the same time as ME3.

Prequels suck, so it has to be a sequel or no interest from me. I'm all for hearing about the past events, but I don't want a whole game centred on it.

Though they really screwed themselves over in terms of... sequel viability.

BW could reference that the Reapers were defeated without being too overly specific. Especially if it's in the future where some of the details may have been lost. Like at that point Shep is a legend and he's more of a myth.

I'd prefer a sequel any given day. I dont mind them canonizing the ending of the first trilogy, as long as they dont go for the green space magic option.
