A sequel is possible. I kinda figured the Leviathan would be the next big baddies. ME3 had Wrex or Wreave depending on the original ME choices, coulda been the same thing for Shepard. Would have been easier to just leave him alive in the end regardless of choice, lol. I always envisioned Shepard ending up in a role similar to Anderson's.
A question, for people who want to see a "sequel"

I would be pretty darn surprised if the next Mass Effect game were to take place after the ending of ME3. Halo (ODST, Reach) and Battlestar Galactica (Caprica) have demonstrated that you can still cultivate an audience for sequels even after seemingly cataclysmic endings; don't see why Bioware wouldn't just do the same.

There are a couple of good reasons for moving it on - shove the ME3 endings into the past is one reason. The other is that there isn't a great deal of scope of time since humans turned up in the ME universe and I very much doubt they would do a story without humans.coinop25 wrote...

They'll either make a sequal VERY far in the future where the "synthesis-ending" happened regardless of your choice in ME3 (because, you know, synthesis is the final state of evolution, so it would happen anyway). So we'll be playing augmented organics weith green eyes in ME4... great...
OR they make an MMO... I don't know which is worse... dark times ahead of us. Wonder if that has to do with dark energy or something...

A sequel would be best, because even though you still have the great character development between player and team you know too much of the lore already. So unless they make it really small scale, the plottwists and impact of the story isn't as big as in the trilogy. Bioware sure made it hard on themselves to make a sequel though, by making 3 endings that have such a big impact on the whole galaxy.
What surprises me is that so many people take the green glow seriously. I think you should just ignore the whole red, blue and green theme in those endings. It's just something artsy Bioware decided to use to show you what's affected by your choice. Why would eyes and skin glow green, instead of say pink, to be biosynthetic? Ignoring the green also makes it a lot easier, because you can explain the biosynthetic part in a codex file or something. Synthesis does not mean a happy peacefull Utopia so if they avoid any organic vs. synthetic theme this ending doesn't really matter much.
As for the Reapers being there or not. Destroy kills them, Control and Synthesis makes them peaceful. They could end up saying the Reapers either got killed or helped other races to repair and went to their own space in the galaxy leaving the rest alone.
So a sequel is possible and I'd prefer it more than a prequel. Specially considering humans aren't that long on the scene yet and I'm pretty sure Bioware won't take the risk by not having the human race playable.
