it would be very hard with all these different LIs but it could be done if they threw someone else in main role. It doesn't have to be LI and it doesn't have to be Kai/Ash to avoid more work.
I would be very ok to throw Liara in main role. She has a nice relationship with Shepard even if not LI and she wasn't a part of any drastic choice as far as I remember.

A LI rescue needs only two different variables for plot in it. Finding shepherd and bringing him back or not.

Once again. In 35 there is NO LI to look for anything. In synthesis it's something you can't comperhand (hehe), in bad destroy or deny (s)he was vaporised, the only endings which do have same LI are good destroy and control.

See? It's simple math. Only 2 out of 5 major endings have LI to find Shepard, only 1 out of 5 endings have Shepard to be found. Because no, there is not much left in control and even less - in synthesis, even if we suppose that this green-eyedTHING, Shepard turned hisher LI into, has an urge to look for what's left of himher.

We are going around in circles - Again you are overcomplicating it to make a point. It can be as simple or complicated as your imagination wants it to be. 

Who's to say shepherd and Andersons bodies were vapourised in Synthesis, a tweak here or there? Who's to say we can't speak with shepherd anyway on the station as a hologram? Who's to say... you get the point. He's either dead and you are picking up whats left of him, his memories, a goodbye, his body, anderson, dogtags, his gun..

Getting the best friends, the crew, his LI anyone up there would be a dramatic scene and great writing could be used. These are the kind of DLC's that are worth buying, the character driven ones.

The third option would be to rescue him as him just as its going on , or maybe just see a hologram as goodbye, plenty dramatic enough for me. But we can complicate this forever if you like. The DLC could be set in the middle of the final fight, just as he's making his move on the station, your against the clock....

But all it needs are 2 Variables, Dead or Alive. That's it and all it needs to be, optional extras above we could list forever.

Your crew coming to return the heroes body, get some closure, errect a memorial etc... or save him.

ME3 EC memorial scene does exactly this.

Exactly its a great concept that can be expanded upon, I enjoyed this bit of the game.

I completely agree with this. Doesn't need to be an LI at all. Again can be real simple, one character picking up the pieces after its all said and done. One last visit to where it ended

If it's set in the future, maybe we see what happened to the crew 'after'.

^You could play as Garrus instead of all these different LI's

[heathxxx]

I'm Commander Shepard... and having being disintegrated and distributed in particles throughout the galaxy, haven chosen Synthesis... Good luck to anyone looking for my remains.

I'm universal dudes!

[futurepixels]

Wow, that was really well done.

[twinsfun]

In my game he took a breath he is not dead if he can survive me2 he can survie anything

[AdmLancel]

Do it with Shepard's LI (or Liara since she's hard to kill, would be best with all possible surviving LIs though) trying to find him/her after the events of the ending. Shepard can still be found even if he/she doesn't survive the ending, it can simply offer closure.

Also, whoever did that trailer, awesome work.

Man, I really grew on Kaidan in ME3. He was meh in ME1, but he became a long lost brother to my Shepard. Awesome trailer.

Huh-uh, not okay.  Bioware already does enough 'to avoid more work' without your help and approval. 

It needs to be Shepard's love interest or not at all.  It defeats the whole purpose of the DLC for it to be otherwise.  If Shepard doesn't have a love interest, fine, Liara can step in.  Being a Kaidan fan I've had enough of Bioware cutting corners. 
Do it right or don't do it at all.

I like this idea, but I would want to see it expanded to all 3 endings, with LI as the lead. If no LI, then can use either Virmire Survivor or your most used character (friend). I think Bioware could do it. It would be the only post ending DLC that could work and maybe explain a little bit more on what exactly happened to Shepard.

As to the question on what would you actually fight since there would be no more reapers, geth, cerberus, etc, maybe just gangs of people during the chaos of the aftermath? Or perhaps people who believe Shepard to be alive and trying to find his/her body so they can (insert plot device here).

Anyway, I like this idea.

Haven't read the entire thread.  So apologize if it was already mentioned.  Get the remains.  Try to get the technology that restores Shepard in ME 2.  In your way are remnants of Cerberus, mercs now free to roam the galaxy in tatters and scheming political factions trying to use Shepard for their own goals.

It would have to be someone who was with shepard from the beginning. Either Garrus or Liara.
If either are your love interest, then you get extra scenes and extra dialogue. Which is not out of the realm of possibility or any different than what they've done with those characters. Take lair of the shadow broker for example, it has extra dialogue and scenes if she's your love interest. They can easily make the breath scene canon,. they've made plenty of decisions that you made not count and gave the decision canon to shape the storyline. So to suggest they can't do that here is just ludicrous, pretty much everyone would buy such a DLC because it would be able to tie in mass effect 3 with whatever they have planned for the series with mass effect 4, if they plan on going forward (I really hope they go forward, i'd rather see a comic or book cover the past, not a whole game)

With all that being said. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

Though it's highly probably this won't happen, bioware said they weren't doing any post story dlc. Though given their track record on saying one thing and doing another, you never know.

Definitely.  It's the closest to financially realistic, and would be amazing.  In a story sense, Liara and Garrus make the perfect team to find you.  Shadow Broker's intel gathering and Garrus's battlefield experience and leadership would be exactly what the doctor ordered.  Throw in Tali as the other most-loyal character since ME1, and they could close off all other squadmates as busy with other problems or helping on the perifery (much like the games themselves).

Even though I let Kaiden hug the bomb in ME1, that trailer posted in the OP is amazing.  Anything BW could pull off in this ballpark would be an incredible way to close out ME3.

As for enemies --- Cerberus re-born (terrorist organizations are tough to completely shut down, just watch the real-life news.)  TIM would most likely have a command structure set up in case of his death. 

And/or Leviathans coming out from hiding now that the Reapers are gone, attempting to reclaim the galaxy. 

Whateves --- just make the **** happen, BW!!

That would be all sorts of awesome. You could even modify it for the Control/Synthesis endings by discovering the fate of Shepard in those.

Thank you.  I've had enough of Liara and Garrus hogging the limelight.  Frankly, if they made it one of them and no one else, I wouldn't be interested, regardless of Garrus being my bro.  I'm tired of Liara being pushed in my face for everything.

I understand what you mean completely. There is a lot of people who think that Liara is pretty much everywhere for no reason (which I don't agree with) but I think you didn't get the point I was trying to make.
Of course it would be nice to have each and everyone's LI in main role but I was trying to offer more real and doable scenario.

Silly Kaidan WITH a personality?? To far fetched.

That's just it, Liara's always been the fill in for Bioware to make things more 'doable' whether it makes sense or not.  I'm sick of it.  How about we just get rid of Liara all together?  How about James be the one that goes after Shepards body.  That way no love interest gets closure with Shepard.  Fair's fair.  It defeats the whole purpose of the DLC...but whatever.  Whatever makes things easiest for Bioware, that's what's most important here, right? 

The appeal...the point of this DLC would be to give each of us some closure for our Shepard and his/her love interest.  That's the point.  I don't want or need closure with Liara.  I don't like or care about her.  It would make the DLC pointless and cruel for anybody who romanced someone else.  The thing is, who we chose to romance is suppose to matter and it should matter, especially in this instance, otherwise it's not fair or right.  So, if Bioware was to do something like this it's extremely important that they do do it right.  If it's too difficult and too much work, then yeah, it's better they don't do it at all.

Whatever happened to hoping for and expecting great things from Bioware?  It's because of fans like you who are all too willing to happily accept whatever they give you and pay anything for it, regardless of who gets left behind and forgotten along the way that we get games like ME3, chock full of could've and should've beens.  Whatever saves them time and money is okay I guess, who cares about quality and meaningful moments with the characters that they've worked so hard to make us love.  And who cares about the rest of us who chose other love interests.  Apparently, we don't matter.

Hello fellow Mass Effect fans.

I just want to show you this epic trailer on new upcoming DLC (Sorry, just kidding). 

I take no credits from this epic trailer, I just post it here for all of you (even if you saw it already). :innocent:


Mass Effect 3: The Search for Shepard

I would pay even 2400BW points for this kind of DLC, where you would play as your LI and go find Shepard!
Of course only in Destroy ending.

Edit: Just to be sure everyone understand. This is just a fan video!

For a moment I was huanted by Star Trek - The search for Spock.

Then I saw the Trailer and the pointy eared one was gone.

I like the idea of having the whole ME3 crew back together again. I like the idea of them stealing the Normandy to go look for Shep even more.

Couple of questions though.

You say we could play as Shepard's LI........... does that include characters like Miranda and Jack who were not part of the ME3 squad roster?........... and who would fill the gap for those characters who died or ran off and cheated the first chance he got?!?...... Not thinking of any cerberus ex alliance biotic soldier in particular there. Though if a certain SOB like that did come back as the LI I guess the circle would be complete.

Also. How extensive would this DLC be ideally? Shepard's search could easily be expanded past the belief he's on the Citadel or Earth and see us flying around the galaxy again. He's been carted off once already back when he was dead. Being nearly dead would afford an organisation to do something similar.

And last question. If ME4 is a sequel, would TSFS be the last DLC you'd like released so that it tie's in somehow with future event's the way the Arrival did back in ME2?

It would be so awesome! I even think that they is a solution for the Shepards that have died: they could learn the truth about what happened to him in some way. If the body what left intact, they find the body.:happy:

I'm surprised no one has considered that some of those last scenes had an unexpected presence of sorts..
I got the impression that there were Keepers harvesting bodies in the citadel when Shepard beamed up.

Unknown section of the citadel. Keepers have been largely left alone and considered harmless and only there to maintain the citadel. Something that the reapers set up from memory... Have them as a sort of last hurrah enemy... And may them suddenly super nimble and wall climby and stuff. Since even the game made point of how little is known about the keepers it would be cool for them to be suddenly yet finally activated for a final purpose of destroying any intruders who go looking for Shepard.
Either way... I want Kaidan and my Mshep to finally be together!
