Except there is nothing to prove any of this, it won't be surprising if Bioware are intending to ditch the MW for good.
There was nothing to prove Andromeda either, other than common sense.
And myself, and others, called it a year ago.
And this is common sense too. So I am calling it right now. In 2018 I'll try not to say I told you so. But its so tempting not to do that right now with Andromeda, so no guarantees.
Given with what people gave seen so far, I think people are very skeptical that Bioware will ever return to the MW.

Well, a year ago, didn't a few dev's say that the next ME game was going to take place long after the events of ME3? That told me:
A. Explore new section of the galaxy
B. Journey to a new galaxy
Didn't even need common sense when a dev confirmed it. I was prepared a year ago as well.
That would make no sense to abandon the Andromeda galaxy after ONE game. They would be be nutty than squirrel poo.

And I remember you were also very skeptical about the move to Andromeda, lol.
Kabooooom, you are hilarious tonight.
This game takes place in the Helius cluster of Andromeda. If I were to guess, the story will probably involve a local threat and at the end awakening a greater threat of the Remnant while also discovering a greater truth. That truth, I imagine, will be that Andromeda has a relay network or something equivalent, and that the Remnant prevented the Reapers from continuing the harvest there.
Then, I imagine, subsequent game(s) would involve exploring the greater galaxy of Andromeda, an amplification of the Remnant threat level, and an eventual realization that the threat now also involves the Milky Way.
Enter a likely return to the Milky Way.
That's the most predictable over arching story I can think of - it will likely be some semblance or variant of it, with the general theme of "some great threat is discovered, threat now impacts Milky Way, ME3 endings are rendered irrelevant".
That would be cool, guess only time will tell. BioWare is soo tight lipped. I wonder if another PR stunt, I mean leak, will happen before N7 day.
Who gives a flying goober about the Milky Way? By the time we'd actually return to the Milky Way after our adventures in Andromeda so much time will have passed that the Milky Way will no longer be the place we once knew.
Might as well just stay in Andromeda for the rest of the Mass Effect franchise, until an inevitable reboot happens.
And I remember you were also very skeptical about the move to Andromeda, lol.
If Bioware were going to make more games in the MW then they wouldn't be ditching it. Not to mention all the information that was given was vague and it was based on nothing but theory's at the time.
Probably be like DAI...
There are...bree-Holes of Dark Energy and you must close them with your hand-Technology that you borrow . And every primitive specie call you the Hera-Hero and hand you Sky-Stronghold to save-everyone else while they just sit and sip tea .

I agree with this. I think this will be a 2 or 3 game experience within the Andromeda.. Then after that.. What next? New galaxy? Alternative timeline? Back to the MW to finally face the endings of ME3?
Eh, actually the "helius cluster" makes it sound like it's just a small part of the galaxy. I think we may be in Andromeda for good.
Except all the information that was given was vague and it was based on nothing but theory's at the time.
There was no information given. We deduced it based on literally nothing more than logical deduction of "how could Bioware most efficiently avoid this mess?" and a single piece of concept art.
And it was still SO obvious, even back then, that we were able to 100% nail it with nothing to go on.
I mean, come on dude. You are giving Bioware too much credit. That's why you were wrong back then, and you probably will be again.
I agree with you, but I don't agree that we'll return to the Milky Way. That won't happen until the Mass Effect franchise gets rebooted.
Again, that makes no sense. It is commonplace to write a story divorced from a prior setting and then return to it later - ESPECIALLY if you wrote yourself into a corner with a prior story.
It's not like there isn't a precedent for this sort of thing.
Except usually the previous setting isn't ditched altogether which is what Bioware is doing with the MW, it very obvious that they don't want to deal with their mistakes.

Except those images told nothing of sorts and they could have easily been taken for something else completely. Its why people don't believe rumors on the internet until proven otherwise.
Meh, we will see. Whether we do or dont return in a future game, I do strongly suspect that Bioware is setting up the Remnant story arc to create the possibility of returning to the Milky Way *if* they want to.
Which also, to me, suggests a possible route to Andromeda. If they are building the Remnant up to be an intergalactic threat, then they probably have tech that can traverse galactic scales.
And as far as setting up the story to create the possibility of return if they want to - the writers of Halo basically did the same thing, except they did it way better.
If they are arc it into the 2nd or 3rd game, I think everyone would be happy...
Kinda like what they did with Halo 2 was it? (I stopped caring for Halo after the 3rd game and when ODST was a major disappointment). Where the story lead back to Earth.

That's the point dude. That's how obvious the move to Andromeda was. We predicted it with NOTHING. Nothing except logic and reason. And not giving Bioware the benefit of the doubt that they would address the endings.
It was right in front of you the whole time. Some of us just saw it, others didn't.
LOL Kaboooom is on fire tonight .
How to fix ME3 ending.
1)Find remnants technology.
2)Find wormhole for travel to Milky Way and back in time.
3) Beat the reapers and save Shepard.

Time travel? LOL. No thanks
Hmm safe to say it'll be another run of the mill, ancient and unstoppable galaxy-eating threat.
Time travel? LOL. No thanks
I don't like time travel as much as you, but if you have better solution I am open for ideas.
