I am so anxious about it. I want to know what happened to those I loved in the Shepard Triology. Like, maybe, with individual biographies done for every single one of them just... because they met Shepard, or for their also quite danm surprising own acomplishments. They deserve it. Especially my romance.

Probably not.

 

The game is set in Andromeda most likely so the writers wouldn't have to address the mess that was Mass Effect 3's endings. If that is the case, it also means our colonists would set out at some point prior to the Crucible firing.

I think there will be a reference to the fighting on earth, but that is all. They won't know if we defeated the reapers or not, I don't think there will be any contact with the original ME crew..., which I think is a good thing. Gives EA the chance to write a whole new trilogy. (Lets just hope they DON'T go down the micro transistion road).

I'm thinking that we wont see or hear of any of the old crew and what happened after the Reaper war. Individual post-ME3 events is something they should have covered in the ending to ME3, similar to what Dragon Age: Origins did for each of your companions.

I really don't want the new Mass Effect to have to do anything with the 'old' trilogy story and character-wise. Hopefully they will keep the references to a very minimum as well (if there will be any).

But those would have to be "unnoficial" colonies. As far as human colonies were adressed last time, they squirted the edge of Citadel Space. And it just seems unlikely they would go so early to the Andromeda Galaxy, especially when the reapers were not around yet. And prior to crucible, but after Reaper arrival, well, seems unlikely they would have the resources to go to Andromeda, and that without Reapers following. It just doesn't seem to fit.

and the chance to do so is past, unfortunately.

 

Andromeda is trying to separate itself from having to address choices from the original trilogy as much as possible. To that end I agree with the idea that we'll be leaving prior to the crucible firing, probably in some ship designed in a top secret program that was launched early as a backup plan in case we lost the Reaper war.

 

The Reapers are powerful, but they aren't omniscient and they didn't immediately gain access to our records since they failed to trigger the Citadel trap. It's not inconceivable that the Ark ship could slip through unnoticed.

Here's what happens to them

[prosthetic soul]

Welcome to my own personal hell Monica.  I've been barking up that tree for the past three years.  And after the past five years of developing attachment to characters (Bioware's one strong point), they end the trilogy in the most open-ended manner possible and tell people who are left wondering what happened to their beloved characters to basically just deal with it. #ARTISTICINTEGRITY. 

 

It's like having an itch build up on your backside for half a decade but never having enough money to buy a back scratcher.   Finally, after the five long years, you acquire a back scratcher, but just as you get ready to use it.....

What about the multiplayer characters?

They had no story.

I think that leaving at some point late in the Reaper War is the most likely.

 

If they set out after the Reaper War it kind of defeats the  purpose for moving the game to Andromeda, which is to get out from under ME3's endings. Any post-ME3 game would need to address those endings regardless of which galaxy the game is set in, if those colonists (or their ancestors) were in the Milky Way when the Crucible fired.

 

If they set out before the Reaper War than having a lot of the popular species make the trip wouldn't make sense. A journey just for the sake of exploration / colonization without the Reaper threat isn't going to include Krogan or Quarians, for example. You need the Reaper War and the galactic unity it creates in order for their inclusion to make some sense.

After what happened to "The Shepard" in those endings, I don't think I want to know what Bioware would consider an artistic ending for the squadmates.  

[Red Panda]

They had no story.

You made their stories.

 

Besides, the squadmates stories are done.

 

 

Especially in my case. The squadmates I cared about were Mordin and Wrex and both didn't make it to the end of ME3.

Tali died after a ship carrying flowers accidentally spilled its payload onto her. 

Garrus became an alcoholic and then...died of alcohol poisoning. 

Wrex pissed off one too many people and then got ambushed in a back alley on Omega....and then died. 

Liara committed suicide by ejecting herself out an airlock mid-FTL

Jack fell down a hill....and died. 

 

Oh, and this song played during each one of their deaths.

I'd rather have this game be a blank slate to make me forget about the horrible third game. *personal opinion*

[Sanunes]

I hope not, there is way too much baggage from the first three games to spend the time trying to get a conclusion for those characters and if past experiences have shown us anything there is a very good chance that no matter what future BioWare picks for them there is going to be a very large vocal dissent to what they pick. What I consider BioWare's biggest mistake with Mass Effect 3 is the fact they wrote in every character that could die so they decided to also have an alternate character fill that position if they weren't around therefore diluting the time we spend with those characters for they couldn't expect us to have an encounter with them.

Thanks for listening and getting what I mean!! Seriously, everyone is just going "They want to avoid it. So they will avoid it. Point." And I just think a bit of pressure should work, darn, it should. I want that adressed. So, thank you. 

 

Also, your "Read and be enlightened.  https://docs.google....it?usp=sharing " got to me. I wanted to see that stupid house of Rannoch.

And well, yeah that's logical so... thanks too.

Doesn't really match well with how I had their relationships, but thanks. That was conforting.

I want nothing from the first three games in ME:A. Maybe a reference here and there.. But that's it.
