 I posted about BW making a horror RPG and some of the responses got me thinking about the new IP. I can't see them overhauling the whole gameplay mechanic when it comes to squads as it intricate part of both ME and DA. What I mean is many of the classes are similar between franchises Majes/Biotics, warrior/soldier etc that I assume the new IP will have some similar system.

I may be 100% wrong on that but assuming they keep same mechanics a futuristic game would be too similar to ME and anything set in the past/medival type would be too similar to DA. It brought me back to my horror idea which didn't work and how it could, not as all out horror like Silent hill but within confines of other Bioware mechanics. Also the vampires and werewolf idea seems popular aside from anything else.

They could take existing classes and use them to make different supernatural beings - vampires, werewolves and witches etc. Vampires would be infiltrators, witches maje/biotics and werewolves rogue/adepts. Humans could be warrior or soldier like in the other franchises. 

It could be set at anytime in Earth's history but personally would love present day but understand the love for a Victorian era setting which would be stylisticly different from the other universes.

My idea is pretty much a present day setting where the human protagonist lives mundane life when a supernatural event - vampire attack, zombies, ghosts etc - lead them to a supernatural council who protects and keeps that world hidden from humanity. You join a team including witch, werewolf, vampire and begin trying to find out who is behind the current attacks. It eventually leads to an ending where the supernatural world gets revealed setting up a sequel.

It keeps same mechanics but is different enough that it not clone of DA or ME. Would be interesting to see how it would play out, I see werewolves treated similarly to dwarves and Krogan with similar cultures.

It's just my preferred story that works with Biowares style. Agree or disagree I don't mind but what would you like to see in the new IP that could be possibility?
