I though of this last night but after Bioware is done working on Mass Effect Andromeda what would you want to see them work on next if you could choose?

New IP for sure. I'm ready for something new, not that I don't love DA and ME, but it's time for something fresh.

If they are inspired and motivated to do it, have figured out the characters and the story and have a clear vision of what they want, gimme gimme gimme. Otherwise, I can wait.

Dragon Age is the only Bioware series I'm in love with, so definitely that.

(I do like some of their other games, but they don't come anywhere close to Dragon Age for me)

Probably new IP and then we'll see the next Dragon Age. I'm really hoping we learn more about the new IP this year.

I'm fine with any of those options being next.

Probably new IP and then we'll see the next Dragon Age. I'm really hoping we learn more about the new IP this year.

They'll probably start talking about it after Mass Effect: Andromeda is released.

Bioware has many divisions, two big teams in Edmonton, one in Montreal (fairly new one), and one in Austin. Austin works on Star Wars, Montreal works on Andromeda, one team from Edmonton worked on ME3 and now the new IP, and the other one worked on DA2 and Inquisition, and now probably have started making DA4. So it's not really about what they do next, but which team finishes first/takes lead in proximity to release and gets more attention. I really would like Jade Empire 2, but wouldn't like them pushing none of the games I'm excited for (Andromeda, DA, and even with the little info we have, the new IP) back. So different option, hire more people, juggle writers and make JE2, please.

They've already been working on the new IP for quite some time.

They've also been quietly working on DA4 already. DA4 has not been 'green lit' but that doesn't mean that it isn't being worked on. In fact, I'd wager DA4 has been in at least the initial planning stages since DA:I shipped. (As in before we even got the DLCs for DA:I). That's just my feeling based on info they shared for DA:I's development. I have no inside info, I swear.

They almost definitely have started right after DAI shipped and the sales looked strong (hell, maybe even before, it's not like there's much work for writers in late beta). DLCs don't need the entire team to work on it, so those who can are transferred to the next big thing. That's really standard practice for big studios that can afford it. For example Ubisoft is, at any given time, working on 2-3 AC games, they just spread the workload across studios, because unlike BW, the have a yearly schedule.

New IP will probably be out at the same time as the next Dragon Age, or atleast no more than a 6 month difference in release to maximize profits. What i want the most after Andromeda is a new ip.

Honestly, they do such a good job with the story telling, I can't honestly say I'd be disappointing with whatever they decided. My bigger concern would be whether they maintained the quality standards to which they are now held in the eyes of the fans (within reason, of course).

Having said that, it depends on the day, but I fluctuate between Jade Empire 2 and new IP (b/c SWTOR pretty well precludes any chances of KOTOR 3). However, I can unequivocally assert my disinterest in the assymetric multiplayer Left 4 Dead/Evolve clone that's currently in development. But I'm not really the demographic for such things anyway. If there isn't a good story, or a strong single player component, I couldn't care less (eg: I solo SWTOR and enjoy it just fine, but I've yet to really get into any other multiplayer-only experience).

By order of release I hope it goes like this: Mass Effect Andromeda, Dragon Age 4, New IP.

I do wonder if we'll see their new IP this year, however. It's been in the making for quite some time now, but we should remember ME1 started way back in 2004 or something.
