The fallout of everything that happened in the Reaper War. Asari government has a lot to answer for, there's the question of where the Salarians are up to if the Genophage was cured, the new Unified Krogan, Quarians with their homeworld and colonies back (and working with the Geth again, best-case scenario), how does the galaxy react to the Vorcha (formerly thought of as the vermin of sentient space-faring species) and Volus (non-combatants or punchlines) stepping up to fight, what happened to the Batarians, Elcor, Hanar and Drell, what to do about Leviathan, how has Omega changed, really rather standard stuff.
What do you want the next Mass Effect game to be about?

Assuming destroy is chosen end you are a smuggler moving valuables to war torn zones maybe get roped into some conspiracy you need to deal with

I want it to involve Leviathan maybe and unfolding some of that story.. I always got the sense that with the Reapers out of the way they would attempt to take over. I don't want something completely new, I want it to connect with a story already introduced in the 3 games and not some spin off for a squadmate. There's a reason we couldn't play our squad in Mass Effect like we could in DA and Kotor.. it would just be weird

Agreed.. I really hope to see Leviathan.
OTOH, there's only a few of them (I think?) and on one planet. Definitely nothing close to a Reaper type of threat. That's a good thing though. I'd really prefer something not so apocalyptic again.

Still, the power they have to take over people could really be interesting to fight against. I can imagine allies being turned against you instantly in the middle of a boss fight and you having to knock them out or something as they try killing you and council members actually being under their control but that may be too similar to the Reaper threat.
I've always wondered about their reproductive system. I wouldn't be surprised if their was more of them and I mean.. they've had to be doing/planning something all those years.

To me Leviathan is DLC fodder. All they would be is just Organic Reapers we are fighting they indoctrinate manipulate just like Reapers. So let them live in the Realm of DLC.

Spinachdiaper yours sounds something like Firefly. Not a bad idea.
Me, after just fighting the Evil Clone, I would quite like an Asari one where they discover the Citadel and relays then meet all the other races. Kinda like Stargate discovery missions....
Jon the Wizard - on Sur'kesh I heard Salarian scientists talking about Uplifting the Yahg! Ouch! You would have thought they would have learned soemthing fromt hat episode with the krogans.....
I said earlier I would like to see an AU where we are Humans in a universe where the Leviathans still rule, and we are freedom fighters to get out from under their rule and unite the other species. This would also work post war with Leviathan thralls now doing the controlling and us trying to prove it is happening and break free.
You'd have a galaxy spanning theater, mooks would be less easy to identify as the Leviathns don't huskify, but if that mine they occupied for 10 years is a sample, they'd be very dozy types, not with it, and I'm not sure how they would rule through them. Maybe just convince others to follow them? But no clear and obvious looking enemies is what I meant.

If it's after the Reaper War, then I want it to be about the next Krogan Rebellions. Even with Wrex in charge, it will happen: They're a war culture, fiercely tribal, and, since a cure for the genophage was made and could be replicated, someone will make it happen even if you sabotage it.
Control a group of other races (Get a nice mix of them), and go. Simple. Easy.

There are honestly loads of stories that can take place in a post-destroy or post-control galaxy. Just decide a canon for the first trilogy and go hogwild

I think a story with no clear and obvious looking enemies would be fun for a change.

A new protagonist and a more personal story, not one about saving the galaxy or anything like that. I'm not honestly expecting that out of Bioware, but I can hope.

Just because they were a war culture in the past dosen't guarantee they will go right back to it. Sure You will have some Krogan clamoring for that but a dozen hot heads won't spark the Rebellions again. With Wreav however I can see it as a potential possibility unless he is given growth in the future. But with Wrex at the helm with Eve I highly doubt it. I think it is clear from the EC that the Krogan were ready to rebuild and enjoy some peace.

Wrex can't manage all of the krogan, not in a realistic fashion. He also doesn't give a crap how fast they breed, and is perfectly okay with seizing the galaxy for colonization (as long as they ask first)
There's too much bad blood around, and krogan like Wrex are not the norm: Eve says as much. Having a New Krogan Rebellion makes perfect sense

Here's to that. Saving the galaxy is such a chore, an when you're done it feels like all you did was maintain the status quo.Minus Malum wrote...

Anything as far as possible to everything related to ME3's endings (catalyst, crucible, organics vs. a.i., leviathans, synthesis).
Ideally a reboot/re-envisioning/alternate universe.

Prequel. Maybe set few years after FCW. Possibly as a merc similar to Edward Kenway. Maybe meet young Anderson and Saren

Post ME3 play as a fragment of a Reaper that was able to reconstitute itself and build a humanoid body. The Crucible was a trap designed by an entity who was in conflict with the Reapers. The Leviathans lied to corroborate its story to prolong their own existence. The Reapers actions had actually prevented the being from entering our galaxy/universe. Shepard and the cycle were given options to mask its true intent. Ezo when in use emits a form of strange matter that is attracted by objects of great mass and builds up. they have their own anomalous effect on space and normal matter. Reapers were dependent on Ezo for their own technology and existence but could regulate themselves out in dark space so that the strange matter would decay before it could build up in a star. The Reapers don't have anything against lesser races other than the danger they pose to themselves and the Reapers. By killing off the races they create a hard break in strange matter generation so it can decay back to harmless levels. Ezo could be an artificial material that was discovered along with the entity trying to enter. The fragment has limited knowledge relative to what the whole had.
Far into the future the galaxy as become a place hostile to all life with wave of space carrying alternate laws of physics that wreck structures and create new forms of matter. Millions of stars have become a new type of stellar object ejecting new forms of strange matter into space. Whatever path was chosen on the Crucible it existed for a time until it passed the point of stabilization. Relays have been damaged and contaminated with strange matter creating bubbles in space where time runs differently from the outside or distances are different from what they should be. Black holes are dying they shift into white hole for brief instances of unequaled bursts of matter and energy. The arms of the galaxy are unraveling and no longer has the flat disc shape. Technology has advanced to take advantage of the new materials but the source and reason for the unraveling of the galaxy remains a mystery for the majority of the galaxy. Those who do know have varying views. Stop it, reverse it, ride out the change, control the change, and more still.

The easiest would be to have the protagonist be a trader and mercenary ... who just happens to stumble onto conspiracies and in the end is in the right time and place to stop a war.
A Rogue Trader campaign in the ME universe ... it's a bit cliche, but there is only so many reasons you can make up for someone to travel all through the universe.

Well, we were supposed to be the Warrior in ME1-3. May as well be the Rogue now.
I like the idea of stopping a war from happening rather than ending it. Better writing base, less garbage, overall more promise for solid quality. Some will complain about it being unfocused or unimportant, but hey, it's a free market.

I would love having the equivalent of Han Solo/Malcolm Reynolds in Mass Effect, cliche or not. If anything, I would very much prefer it over having another go at life aboard a military vessel. All I require is that the ship is awesome and memorable.
