I don't know if this has already said here. I read a lot of complaints about our protagonist is a human (all over again). However, I was thinking if it could be possible if in the middle of a combat we can switch to any of our companions and play as them, Dragon Age style.
I know DA and ME have two different approaches to combat (ME is more a shooter), but I think you can keep shooting enemies as your Krogan companion, or your biotic subordinate plus using their powers.
What do you think?
It could help to change your squad time to time too.
I was thinking the same thing now they could revamp companions powers and melee combat from mp.

Also, as @Andrew Lucas has said, you don't have to switch characters if you don't want.
I suggested it, but then almost everyone was against it for some reasons like immersion and roleplaying and whatnot. You don't have to switch if you don't want to.
The pioneer struggle. Maybe you were a man ahead of his time

Really? 
That's weird.
I'd love this feature to come in MEA. But I have absolutely no hope it'll happen.
If this feature is added, I would also say that the game should not end when the protagonist goes down. It should instead be like KOTOR and Dragon Age, where you only lose if the entire party goes down.
It's more logical too. I mean, sometimes my Shepards acted as assholes, making self-preservation their first priority in order to... not reload the scene

There are certain games that have the game ended when the character you control die. If not, then just have a set number of healing items that revive your companions or Ryder when they go down, and when you die, you just switch to a different character.
It would be awesome if Ryder died, your companions, maybe if romanced, have some concern lines for him/her, similar to Hawke and DA2. DA2 has a lot of flaws, but it has a very personal touch with all the companions.
IDK. Maybe. It was OK in DAI. But this is a story about you. DAI doesn't have just one protagonist.
Are we know for sure that it would be another trilogy or would they change protagonist every game like DA?

If they do that I'm wandering off into a Thresher Maw nest. Knowing my luck I'll survive though and get rewarded with a free copy of the new game.
I dunno. I think there's something to be said for a fresh start each time. It's fun to continue where you left off, but I think you start to accumulate a lot of narrative baggage as you progress from one game to the next. I definitely wouldn't want to drag the same character through more than a trilogy, and it would still need a solid overarching story. The original trilogy did that very well I thought: discovering the Reaper threat --> pursuing the Reaper threat --> ending the Reaper threat.
The Dragon Age forum gets a lot of talk about closure, but you can't really get final closure on your character unless they die. At some point, you have to just have to let your head canon take over and imagine whatever future you want after the character walks off into the sunset.

Sure, why not. Doesn't bother me, I wouldn't use it, though. I'm too used to solely being Space Jesus and only Space Jesus.
Same here I'd not really use it either I only tend to switch to another companion usually if mine's gone down The only time I tend to switch is if I'm having difficulty getting through a section which I've got through befoer as something else for example getting into Fort Drakon during the final mission there is a section wher eyou have a ton of darkspawn incluiding 2 emissaries and 2 dragons. I'v sometimes switched to the mage in my group if I'm not playing one myself and controlled things through them. Because as a warrior I have at times had difficulty getting through that section. As that section seems to be easier if your playing a ranged character.
Should do it like Republic Commando, where you can yell at your squaddies to rez you.
Anyone remember the alpha footage of the original Mass Effect where it shows you controlling Ashley?
Usually I never like switching to other characters. But to have the option to do it would be nice.
Sure. Hopefully they'll get rid of the Mission Failure screen that pops up when only the pc's down.
