I actually hope not. The ending sequence is already long as it is, the game needs more meat before the point-of-no-return, not added to the ending (which already takes much longer with EC stuff).

Sure. I've never really seen how this is a sensible plan. A segment of us hardcore fanatics would snap it up. Others  wouldn't  -- I doubt I'd bother myself, since I don't have the problem this DLC is supposed to solve. And everyone else.... wouldn't they all just YouTube it?

No one has any clue at all.

Nobody here is flipping out. Your perception on people's behavior is questionable.

I read somewhere that all signs are pointing to the possibility of us being able to control one of our squadmates. Could this be an ending where we find Shepard alive on the Citadel and finally get our happy ending? "high potential for tears" does not necessarily have to mean sad tears you know?

Chances are that it's just a new mission line with some sad parts.

One of the core parts of the game is combat. If you do any gameplay after the ending like looking for Shepard, you're just going to end up with no combat because the Reapers are already beaten/controlled/freed and Cerberus is destroyed.

What it is going to be is debatable. I think Bioware has spent all the stories that tie into the main plot, like Leviathan, Lair of the Shadow Broker, Arrival, etc. And done the follow ups of side plots like Omega and From Ashes.

More than likely, it'll probably an original story, like Bring Down the Sky, Overlord, Kasumi Stolen Memory, and Zaeed Price of Revenge were.

My hope is maybe have post ending content tha differs between endings...maybe with an actual reunion for people who got the high-EMS destroy. Other endings would have your squadmates discover Shepard's fate.

It's not inconceivable. This wouldn't be changing the endings themselves, so Bio hasn't ever ruled this out.

They have ruled out post breath scene months back

You have an actual quote? The ones I've seen didn't say that.

Doesn't matter much, of course -- Bio's free to change their minds about that anyway.

[JamieCOTC]

It's possible that the next DLC will be related to the ending as w/ Leviathan, but that's even a lot to hope for. We still don't know a lot about the Keepers, who built the Crucible, why no one uses the poker table, why Shepard can't drink on her own ship anymore ... There are still lots of unanswered questions in the ME universe.

A Priority Earth enhanced w/ war assets at work would have been nice though.

Im almost certain one of the mods, maybe Chris or Jessica on twitter. But ya, hopefully they do change thier mind. I mean they did add a new ending (Refuse) with the EC when they said they wouldn't.

They've got sales numbers to worry about now. I just looked up the latest comparative sales figures from the Xbox Live Marketplace, and let's just say that they don't look that great. (Post with comparative DLC sales list, source, and method of obtaining the list is here.) EA and Bioware alike have to be eyeing these numbers and trying to figure out what to do to boost them. That said, at this point I don't believe they'll use an ME3 ending fix as that boost. I admit I'm curious to see what they do with the Citadel DLC, much in the manner of one watching a train wreck unfold.

The thing is, what would we actually gain from Keeper DLC? It's going to be pretty obsolete in the end. I don't think we necessarily need more info about Keepers, we all know that they keep the Citadel up and running (and they probably were harvested before and have similar fate to Protheans). Since we've already had DLC's that have some connection to ending or that have pretty much nothing to do with Shepard, I'd really like to see something around Shepard. It could be flash back or something else but I'd REALLY like it to concentrate on Shepard this time. So basically that's what I'd want to see.

The new DLC will be simple: it will allow us to whip it out and take a ****** on the Catalyst. Think Postal.

[soren4ever]

Just no more Cerberus

[kal_reegar]

I hope in a post ending dlc.
DA: Awakening was awesome... either your warden was dead or not.
Saying goodbye to Ferelden and the old friends with a new adventure. Good memories.

Playing as Shepard if you choose destroy, playing as Liara/Garrus/Edi etc or a new spectre (your choiche) if you choose control or synthesis... a new story that links to ME4.. finally seeing the consequences of your decisions... it would be amazing.

imo pre-ending dlc and expansions can be well made and interesting, nothing more.
but post-ending dlc and expansion can be truly excting.

Yeah, I wonder if he would compute that as a NO to his plan.  My guess would be yes.

[Gewehr_fr]

1) IT will never be confirmed or denied.

2) Endings are done as much as I hate to say it.

3) See point 2.

So none of these; probably a new plot, something we aren't expecting. I just hope it's not about Cerberus again.

That said some dev on tweeter talked about high potential for tears (think it was Walter) so assuming this is true I'd bet on the death of at least 1 "minor" returning character such as Bailey, Sha'ira, Veetor etc...

Honestly though unlike previous dlcs we don't have much clue of what it is gonna be about.

[CaptainCommander]

My guess is its gonna be a redoing of past ME story of the Citadel. Like the AI in ME1 was really the Catalyst doing an experiment to see if the cycles have changed or that the catalyst really was the elevators and is just upset no one has chats in him anymore and that's why he presents the 3 endings!

The gambling AI that was going to blow up a part of the Presidium? That AI? Sure, that'll make synthetics and organics stop killing each other.

A find Shepard DLC would be cool, but what happens to those who's canon ending is control or synthesis? 

Once you find his/her died body it goes Critical mission failed ,and it wiped your hard drive of all 3 games memory.  You than must start all over from ME1 ,since you picked control or synthesis,

One thing I didn't like about Awakening: Import a save with a dead warden and he/she is retconned back to life. Start a new game on Awakening and play the Orlesian Warden-Commander and it's auto-dead. I would have liked to import a sacrifice save and been able to play the Orlesian Warden and have my pseudo-death be remembered.

But while I can see something like that used for ME3: If you got the best destroy, you can play Shepard, but in other endings you get a new PC: It'd be hard to pull off.

People may not like to acknowledge the differences in the endings because the cinematics are similar, but there are seven different conditions for the Milky Way galaxy. Only three of which have the galaxy intact.

Destroy Variants:

Galaxy undamaged + Shepard Alive
Galaxy undamaged + Shepard Dead
Galaxy damaged + Shepard Dead
Galaxy devestated + Shepard Dead

Control Variants:

Galaxy undamaged
Galaxy damaged

Synthesis Variants:

None(Everything is always intact in Synthesis)

Not to mention in all variants, the Mass Relays are completely destroyed or at the very least severely damaged and nonfunctional. In the immediate future, interstellar travel is going to be less than stellar. Being able to jump across the galaxy within a few hours is kaput. Long way is the only way until the relays are back in top shape.

In the lower EMS variants, the galaxy will have a lot more rebuilding to do.

In the lowest destroy variant. The galaxy is ****ed up.

That's a lot of variables to work around.

One problem though.

There. is. not. going. to. be. a. Citadel. DLC.

The citadel maps found in Leviathan were for the meeting with Aria you have in ME3: Omega. In that DLC, you have the port, the tunnel, and the inside of Aria's car.

And there was no spoilerish data inside of Omega to even hint at the next DLC. Meaning they learned better.

Did anyone from Bio ever explain why they didn't do that? Were there that many dialogues for the OW that assumed the GW was alive?

[TheWerdna]

While i see the chances of IT DLC or a successful refuse ending completely unlikely, I do think there is hope for a post ending DLC.

[Shepard108278]

No one knows what it is but it will not change the ending!!!! Accept it!

[Firesaber82]

At this point anything that has some meat to it, and good character writing is fine by me. I don't think I even care anymore if it involves the ending or not.
