Have both Grunt and Liara in the next ME, and I'll be a very happy man.
Also the only two you could reasonably expect to be alive.

Grunt actually has multiple opportunities to die off permanently, where as Liara does not. So expected Liara alone is much more reasonable. Expecting an entirely new cast to enjoy and experience however.... is much more reasonable.

Was talking purely about possible in terms of age. (p.s. besides Shepard, is there anyone that doesn't die permanently?
)
But entire new cast should be expected, I know this ![]()

Well, Wrex is a possibility as well. Maybe Samara?
But I'm with you on this.

Samara is already too old... assuming the game will take place at least a century or two after ME3 (to make sure as many people as possible associated with Shepard are dead). Wrex too.. probably. Though i don't think there's a Krogan cause of death called 'old age' ![]()

That's the case. Barring violent death, krogan are pretty much immortal. So yeah, I guess Wrex could die from some backstabbing incident, but he's been around the block for a long time. He knows how to look after himself.
Of course, having two of Shepard's closest friends alive is stretching it a little, so it's probably not going to happen.

I'm pretty sure Krogan don't live as long as Asari. I've been under the impression their lifespans were at maximum 500-800 years. Wrex isn't young. Grunt tho...
As a companion no, as a NPC that is intractable with that would be interesting and as others have pointed out would bridge the gap it would depend on three things 1) is it set in the past 2) is it set more than 1000 years in the future and 3) where in the universe its set (i.e. is it even in Council space). If set in the past then no she won't if set in the future that isn't more than 1000 years in the future possible especially if she resets herself up as the Shadow Broker. However, if she is the Shadow Broker, remember he used a voice modulator and didn't get involved with people visually so it could be her but we'd most likely never see her. As to her being there (barring death by nefarious means) from a logical standpoint there would be no reason why she would not be there if its Council Space. It's very strange to see people not like Liara as I have no issues with her or for that matter any of the companions that I had through my voyage of ME...curious.
The ME3 trilogy is a closure. No i don't want to see ANY existing characters. I like to see new unique and interesting characters. ME4 is gonna be awesome. I'm having goosebumps thinking about it.

Wrex is over 1300 years old. He was already alive and an adult when the Krogan Rebellions ended.
Quite possibly he's much older even.

I guess the emphasis on the asari's thousand year lifespan has more to do with it being closer to the average than with the krogan, but yeah, it's easy to forget just how old some of these krogan can be. If you didn't bother speaking to Wrex about his family in ME1, you'd never really get this idea that he was trying to rebuild his society after the war, or that his father was in fact one of the combatants in the Rebellions.

I think it has more to do with the fact that there's a maximum lifespan for the Asari, and not for the Krogan. An average lifespan for the Krogan would be based purely on unnatural causes of death.
I dunno. Death by thresher maw seems pretty natural XD

Are you sure he was alive during the rebellions. I remember trying to figure that out, but it seemed inconclusive to me from his dialogue in ME1. Or my memory is fooling me.

It's uncertain he was an adult (though I'll easily admit we have no information on how fast a Krogan matures). Fact of the matter is though:
Right after the war (the Krogan Rebellions) he was forced to kill his Father. The Krogan Rebellions were from approx. 700-800 CE. ME3 is set in 2186, making him at least 1300 years old, but probably much older. (we also know he doesn't know what a Rachni looks like, so we can also state a maximum age of about 1800 years old).
Note that these years are in standard galactic years, which are longer than earth years. (is this taken into consideration when the game speaks of the maximum lifespan for a human? does anybody know this?)
Regardless of all this, he's way older than an Asari could be.
No thank you. No need to be tied down to the previous ME series. Thinking about the increase in size of DA:I from DA:O. There is probably going to be a bigger jump from the Mass Effect Trilogy to the next Mass Effect in terms of content. I am sure there are going to be many more characters that I enjoy interacting within the next Mass Effect.

I know he was active after the war, but I haven't seen any information suggesting it was immediately after. I got the sense that killing his father took place many years later after Krogan society had declined significantly, possibly even centuries later.
I bring this up because the only thing I remember hearing regarding a Krogan lifespan was "centuries" and Krogan's references to his own past were temporally vague.
Meh, I googled some more. He's way younger ![]()

He left Tuchanka 300 years before ME1.

Well, he seems on the older side as Krogan go, so I think that's more in line with my 500-800 year lifespan.

Thing here is... Krogan don't die of old age.
Okeer faught in the Krogan Rebellions, for instance. He did not die of old age after 1400 years
Im not sure why we would see Liara again since shes the shadow broker and a bit of a recluse. Id really like to see her again but at the same time, if im not Shepard.. i dont really want to see her again..for obvious reasons..
Grunt would nice to see, with curing the genophage and with the krogan on the council, i like to think Grunt would be the first krogan spectre eventually.
The next Mass Effect game is being developed by a new studio with new writers.
Don't you think they might want to bring in their own characters?
Depending on the setting, there might be a few nods to the Shadow Broker.
Are you sure he fought in the Rebellions? And I'm going to have to check that number because the Rebellions were after the Rachni and the number being thrown around for them is 1300.Thing here is... Krogan don't die of old age.
