Also realistically, its more likely that any children Shepard has will be everyday people who work normal jobs and don't have an impact on galactic affairs. If Shepard has a family, they should fade into obscurity.
I don't see anything wrong with that. They don't need to be superheroes to be great.
As for the video game aspect of it, mass effect is Commander Shepard. With his story ended, the series for me has ended. It's all headcanon for me from here on out. And I'm fine with that. Normal, boring, everyday life and jobs and all.
The issue I have it with it, isn't that it isn't too realistic. For example if you look at all of the Medal of Honor or Victoria Cross recipients, you won't find too many that have relatives that also won the medal. The children of those Medal of Honor or Victoria Cross recipients have generally grown up to be normal people working your average 9 to 5 job. The sane should be true with any children Shepard has, IMO.
Just out of curiosity though, why does the series end for you if Shepard isn't the protagonist?
Mass Effect wouldn't be the first series to have had more than one protagonist. Star Trek is a good example, with both Captain Kirk and Captain Picard. There isn't anything really preventing Bioware from creating a new protagonist who is as interesting as Shepard, or a new set of squadmates who are just as fun as Shepard's team.
