I have mixed feelings about a direct sequel to ME3.

 

On the one hand it is the setting that most interests me by far. I'd love to have some familiar locations mixed in with the new, and see how the events of the Shepard trilogy, or Shepard's choices, impacted the galaxy. Assuming it fits with the timeline and doesn't require shoehorning, it might also be fun to run into a couple familiar faces from the previous three games.

 

On the other hand there a lot of potential pitfalls with crafting a direct sequel from Mass Effect 3, and a lot that could go wrong. Also some choices Bioware could make in going that route could seriously dampen my enthusiasm. This is entirely selfish of me I know..but while a canon Destroy sequel would interest me, a canon Synthesis sequel likely would not. And crafting a single sequel from those three diverging endings would require some details from those epilogues either being cut or significantly altered that so that the sequel would fit with all three endings. Whether or not I'd be purchasing a one way ticket on the hype train would depend on what got cut or altered.

 

Pretty much sums up my opinion. A next generation sequel has definite appeal to my heart but not if it canonised choices, overriding my choices. Of all the bad possibilities the ark theory sounds the least bad in allowing some sort of continuation imo, though still bad in that it would remove the races from their setting.

The Ark Theory might not necessarily remove any of the previous alien species from the setting. I'm assuming that if it panned out, that at the least representatives from all of the Council species would have been aboard.

Geth, quarians, krogan and batarians aren't exactly well liked by the Council, and would be unlikely to be aboard.

 

Ironically, they are the species which are on the endangered species/extinct lists depending on Shepard's chocies.  Well, batarians are screwed no matter what...

There was a brief glimpse of a Krogan in the first video Bioware released for ME: Next, so they'll be returning. If the Ark Theory pans out, they'd have made it aboard the Ark. It makes sense in a way, because they are potentially making a large contribution to the defense of Palaven. 

 

On that note the Quarians might squeeze in for similar reasons. Also they are a fan favorite.

 

While I'd like to see Batarians & Vorcha return, they are probably less of a sure thing.

I meant in terms of removing them from Milky Way, citadel, home worlds etc setting.

Ark theory is not going to be the one, or at least not the way most people think it would be made. As a sidenote I really hope they are not that prone to massive errors again.

Unless you betray Wrex and/or let the bomb go off...

I think you have to do both to avoid getting a few hundred krogan WA points.

Hm am I the only one who would want to see a broken or really old statue instead of a pristine one?

[ForgottenWarrior]

Or a statue in antique's vault like in Hock's one.

Huh, that would be a nice collection - he already have Saren's one!

As much as I love my Shepard please reboot.  Favor one choise ending above the other and you offend some one including me if it is not my favorite choise.  If they can circumvent that conundrum in a fashionably manner but i doubt it.
