I'm pretty sure Xen dies with the rest of the quarians if you support the geth on Rannoch. That makes some Xen DLC rather unlikely, IMO.

Honestly, how many people don't pick peace, though? And of those few that do not, who picks the geth?

And it could be explained that she escaped of course.

Though, perhaps you have a valid point, in that it could conflict with another main plot point of the game. In that case, how many other things could it possibly be? We've spent the entire game on the Citadel, it's about the only hub world in the whole damn game. How many more things could we possibly be doing on it?

Which makes Epilogue seem more likely, in my eyes, but perhaps that's just wishful thinking. Or maybe not. Huh.

 It's highly doubtful but it could be some kind of DLC  for bridging ME3 to the possible sequel in some way. They might want take care of some story clean up now instead of having the new team have to be partially hamstrung by having to resolve within an entirely new game that won't release before the year after next. Doubtful, since it might require canonizing one of the choices, but I really don't know what they could add to the current game that would outdo the current DLC (Omega included) in terms of importance or relevance. Maybe Shepard's tribunal that got just the briefest mention in ME3 could be part of something too, I guess. Other things seems like they would not involve Shepard, and I don't think they'll go that route. 
Although Riptide's theory is better. To add to that, since there is currently no way to make peace between the Geth and Quarians without an import from ME2, which is a great reward for playing ME2 and making certain choices, but seems a little too harsh on new Shepards or new players, BW could allow you to earn enough points through the DLC.
I still hold out hope that my Shepard will have a chance to talk to her mom one last time though, so...:unsure:

Epilogue DLC is a horrible idea. You're either playing someone who isn't Shepard or you're infringing on the player's idea of what Shepard does after. I have a lovely post-Destroy headcanon and I don't really want it screwed up.

They could always just make it available before the decision on Rannoch and make it unavailable if the key characters dies. It'd be a nice change from the rather cheap cop-outs.

Here's the thing, JA, I keep hearing people say they have to canonize the endings, and personally, I don't see why that's the case at all.

Say they do an epilogue DLC, it's possible to account for each ending. Destroy has you playing as Shepard, Control could have you playing as a Shepard controlled husk, Synthesis could have you playing again as a husk, or perhaps more likely as EDI. Refuse is the only one that might be impossible to do because of time constraints, but it's certainly feasible. Destroy sees Shepard returned to his team and he gets his happy ending. Control sees Shepard reunited with his team, though as the Catalyst says, his connection to them is lost, he's speaking through a husk. Synthesis sees EDI and the team finding out what happened to Shepard and the implicates of Synthesis, Refuse has Shepard wandering through the Citadel, wounded, and fighting against increasingly endless hordes of Reapers before finally being overwhelmed.

Not saying that's the way it has to play out, but I think it makes a case for one way it possibly could. The DLC would explore the implicates of each ending, we get some reactions from Shepard's teams and how it's affected them. Joker's loss of EDI, Javik's anger at Shepard not destroying the Reapers, ect. It would give our ending choice consequence and weight.

Or, again, it might be something completely different.

Guys, I *remember* the Xen quest. It was about the complexity of recruiting the Eclipse. I know you can pad things, but come on.

My guess is a romance pack, perhaps.

Your headcannon is getting screwed over in the sequel anyway. If you dont' want that, you better put down your controller and accept never to play a ME game again, because like it or not, it appears they're moving forward.

A romance pack is another viable possibility.

I guess we won't know for sure until they announce it. It could be several different things.

There's a difference between "500 years later, the krogan have adapted to the genophage again" and "Shepard became an Alliance admiral and is leading operations in the Traverse." The only time I was satisfied with the epilogue was DAO where my decisions helped shape the PC's future.

Whatever it is, I just hope it isn't another standalone story taking place during the main events of the game. We've had enough of that by now, me thinks.

Yeah, well, frankly, I'd like a better resolution to my Shepard's journey than taking a breath on an exploded space station, and I know many people who feel the same way.

I really hope this is not just another random DLC.
Hope it expands on messed up things like Earth or ME2-squadmates.

Many more DLCs =/= many more story DLCs. They may be thinking "another 2 weapon packs, MP DLC and alternate appearance pack, and one last story SP DLC". We can't know for sure either way

True. But my Resources comes straight from the Dev themselves. The question wasn't on DLCs but Story Related DLCs, I doubt Mike Gamble was referring to "appearance packs"

Why do people think this is the Citadel DLC? That's completely retarded.
Citadel DLC has been long-past the writing stage for months.

This is the one after that.

Jos never said it's still being written. At least we're not the ones believing in Light/Guardian/Project X DLCs, or saying "Collector weapons in pack tomorrow" when it turns out it's not even a weapon pack but an outfit pack lol
