Ozzy Osbourne's music is always a good thing. With My Cerberus Phantom idea, I am not opposed to a Respectful Playable cameos of Shepard. Lets face it, Many players are attached to him/her. So why not keep him a badass N7 Marine. Conversely My Cerberus Phantom Idea is not required to have any form of a Playable cameo of Shepard.
Well My intent is to have an Anti Hero/Anti Villain Styled Player Character aka Cerberus Phantom to face Harbringer in an Lovecraftian Space station in Dark Space with a reasonable good story.
My Volus Fraud Buster would be more low key type of hero, busting frauds thru out the Citadel.
My C-Sec Infiltrator would track a Serial Killer in a Noir Style Story.
There is a Turian Havoc Soldier and his squad with the possible finding a Super Weapon.

well if they re make ME3, what do you think of a N7 Fury style villain that is a Dark Messiah that secretly working for the Reapers? Unlike T.I.M., there will be no overt signs that he is a servant of the Reapers.
One side he is a charming public figure that wants to unite the Species for survival; On the other side, he is a Wraith like Villain that has many of the N7 Fury's abilities like Annihilation Field and Dark Channel among other dangerous biotic and tech abilities. Yes there will be jokes; making fun of him greatly because he comes across as an Edgelord of a villain.

what do you think of a N7 Fury style villain that is a Dark Messiah that secretly working for the Reapers? Better than Kai Leng, no doubt. He/she could be in the mission briefings alongside Anderson and Hackett, while Ashley/Kaidan comment on how they know the dude, that they're pretty good, but something about them rubs them off the wrong way. Dude might even fight alongside you for a mission or two, but some things just won't add up. You know, foreshadowing, done subtly. Imagine if they could remake the OT, with the things they wanted to implement but couldn't. Like saving both Ashley and Kaidan on Virmire, the Hammerhead having actual use in ME2, instead of the scanning minigame. Oh, and I would have loved, LOVED elevator conversations between squadmates in ME2, Garrus poking fun at Tali and vice versa, Legion and Tali, Jack and Miranda baiting each other, Jacob and Miranda reminiscing the past, Thane and Samara talking about their kids etc. That stuff practically writes itself.

This new bad guy can be against Shepard or any Player Character. Well with N7 Fury Dark Messiah, I am taking inspiration from Shepard himself, N7 Fury ME3 MP and The Reaper from Overwatch. Dutch is the guy's name and as of right now, He is using the Wraith identity to fight the Player Characters. To the Player, He is supposed to come across as Cool One without being an overbearing prick. Well I am all for the reduction of Cerberus as a Reaper Controlled Faction within ME3 and reducing their overall size as well.

Also he is supposed to be very diffcult boss encounter every time you fight him in his Black Talon Wraith armor. He does have a Skull Helmet as a part of his armor. He does have an intimidating look, presence and fighting abilities. A bane of all build types.

If they ever re-do Mass Effect 3 regardless of PC, I would love this song during the Battle of London at Ear bleeding levels. See the Alliance Marines fighting bravely and skillfully like badasses at the face of absolute oblivion of the Eldritch Horrors of the Reapers. Regardless of the Other heroes that Shepard brings with him, I would love to see that. That reminds me of the original doom music.

I want a ME3 remake within the Intensity that it does deserves. Alliance Marines including Shepard should be shown as badass Even if Shepard is not a returning Player Character. I have a few Player characters in mind but everyone has their fantasy Player Characters outside of Shepard and Ryder Twins.

It's utterly illogical to think that they would remake Mass Effect but drop Shepard. That would be like remaking Tomb Raider without Lara Croft.

Keep in mind that Mass Effect Universe is not Shepard. True, Many fans here love Shepard and Ryder Twins. That Mass Effect is deep enough to have several Player Characters ranging from the smaller more personal stories to the epic badass stories.
Referencing Half Life here, Half-Life 1 had several Player characters Ranging from the Iconic Gordon Freeman, Adrian Shepard, Barney Colhoun, Gina Cross and Colette Green. I know that Valve can't count to 3 unlike Bioware.

Shepard had a fling with her in the past. A fair warning though, this Shepard is very sexual. You may be the only person I don't recommend this fanfic to, knowing how passionate you are about your particular interests and choices. The story is plenty dark too.
Kelly does not have a big role in this story. Jut this one chapter. And her story is pretty sad. But she wasn't forgotten.
*looks at the chapter* Fuck your friend! If you think this is good like your post before seems to and this is what you want the sequel to have then fuck you too!

it's nice to even see that me5 is even a speculation. MEA for me was a disappointment, however after analyzing it for a couple of years there was a hint that there was more to the story than most people noticed. In my opinion, because it was rushed to be released, the story never seemed hard line... and the dialogue wasn't polished so it never fitted the actual story like in the other ME trilogies. I had been keeping up with BW since 1997 and when ME1 came out. I never liked D & D, because I just don't like that sci-fi genre. Now, when MEA came out it wasn't even suppose to be a ME trilogy game at all. It was reported that they were trying to develop a new IP, but because fans were so irate about it, BW had made a difficult choice to make a ME game without being part of the trilogy. I had quoted on IGN that there was no way BioWare could finish the game on time and using the Frost Bite engine wasn't a good idea. I got massive flak for it from others, because they thought I was trying to dis the game before it came out. However I had done a lot of research on the Frost Bite engine, I wasn't just saying it. It was also reported by the lead writer that they were trying very hard not to make a sequel or a prequel. That made me suspicious they were having problems with the game and the fact that the staff was able to play the game during Christmas time, two months before the release, while other staff members had left the company. Meaning it was long finished before what they had said they had spent on creating it which I also stated to IGN. Probably due to pressures coming from EA BioWare was like okay, we'll do what we can even if we don't like it. I had left BW community due to the negative comments made on my posts when I said the game would be put out unfinished and broken. I gave the company the benefit of the doubt and spent a lot of money on the pre-release. Never again!
Whether or not BioWare will develop a high quality triple A game is the question. I honestly don't believe they listen to its true fans even when they had put out a survey for fans to take so they could get an idea what fans wanted in the new MEA. What, I don't think they realized which, I stated on IGN and BioWare Community, that they or most of them weren't ME fans filling out the survey. How do I know? Because, I asked a lot of ME fans what they wanted in a new ME game from outside. Hmmm... the comparison to the surveys were complete opposite. One ME fan had told me that this person felt... among others, that they were DA fans trying to destroy ME trilogy so that BioWare could spend more money on that IP for a better game than what they were promised. Made sense. I had felt the same after reading reports from IGN, GameSpot, and other big Gaming News sites. The comments were 90% or more of hate for ME and that DA was a better game and that BioWare needed to rid ME trilogy. So, I began to think that the fan base for DA was much bigger than ME. Which it was. DA had made more money, and had more players as well. The death threats to people who worked on the game was just crazy. So, then I went to ME fans again and asked them how angry were they with the game? Well, they weren't that angry, but really more sadden and disappointed that they did something like that to a game that was nearly perfect for RPG setting, and not like BioWare to put out such a product. So, what I'm driving at is that the DA fans didn't want BioWare to create other games, but spend more on DA; which a comment came out earlier about "Anthem", and that the fans were to blame. Now that seems ridiculous, right? Not if you think about how these fans are. Meaning they would put out comments on a new game what it should have and what it shouldn't and the company goes, "ok, that's what they want," and not realizing that it was false recommendations for the game to be what fans really wanted. Example, BioWare was flooded that ME fans wanted the Mako back. Hmmm... going online and asking many people I know that love the ME game had told me they didn't want the Mako back for certain reasons, and were questioning why people wanted it back. Well, MEA has the Mako, just revamped and pretty much detested it because you had no cannon on it like in ME1. Many of them and I were like uuuuugh, are you kidding me? DA fans wanted the Mako back, because they knew if BioWare stuck it in there, ME fans would be like, "what?" And, talking to some D&D, DA die hard fans, well, they were like... ahah, MEA was a complete bust. Hmmm... makes you wonder...
I've experienced this first hand in the art field at one time. Not only can the company itself make the game fail, but fans as well by differences that can't be settled to pleasing players. BioWare should have stuck to what they were original planning for ME trilogies when they first created it, and stayed with it no matter what people were saying. BioWare was on the right path, and the right track. They had made the game fun and enjoyable from the start. ME3 had a little hiccup, but nothing that I know of that true ME fans were really angry about including the ending. Many were happy they had all these multiple choices, and that the outcomes were very different. Shepard was the heroine and people love that, that's why they like Bat Man, Spider Man, Super Man and so forth. A heroine that takes charge of the undesired situation and makes things happen. Many would like to see Shepard back, I on the other hand don't mind if he/she doesn't. Playing a other race figure doesn't change the soul of the RPG, because it's the heroine, no matter if he/she is Salarian, Asari, Turian, and yes a Krogan. Now, could they use MEA2 and be successful? Hell, yes! They could even bring Shepard back and many others slowly into the picture being in the Andromeda Galaxy, since the story line did have the truth to why it is they went there and that the Illusive Man may have had a hand in it. I wonder how many caught that? There is more to the Illusive Man than most people think. Why haven't more come out in the trilogies, I would suspect that story is more complicated than the side kicks. After all he is in ME1 and knows about the Reapers.
BioWare Could make Andromeda very successful depending how much real quality they want to put into it. I had once said that ME could be as big as Star Wars, and Star Trek and other big Sci-Fi Brands. BioWare could have branded themselves bigger than EA and should have stayed a solo company. It's one thing wanting to create a new entire game, but if you have something successful like Coca-Cola, and Pepsi, stay with it, because being successful keeps everyone happy. Could, MEA still be successful? Yes! If BioWare spent quality time on its patches and embedded new dialogue to the Andromeda mystery, with some high quality DLC to lead up to the new ME5, Shit! They could have an infinite possibilities where they could go and do with that game. Now, I didn't add the art aspect of it, because that's a given. They know better. Now, do I believe they don't have enough staff? No, that's bull-****. Why? Because, there are so many talented artists and writers out there they could hire. Now, is EA a thief? Hell yes! The CEO wants nearly of 100% of the profits. More staff costs more money. EA don't like that and isn't willing to support BioWare with more Staff! If they don't than the company can never put out a high quality RPG ever again or a IP as a matter of fact. In my opinion EA wants to split up BioWare till it's no longer BioWare. That's how the EA CEO thinks. I know these kind of people. GReed baby! Enough is never enough and that guy is unstable.
Casey Hudson can say all he wants about creating a new mass effect game, but with EA and the way they behave in the industry it will never happen. Which is why ME5 is just speculation and not a product to be produced. Besides, wouldn't you expect from a person to make fans happy by announcing that they, "will" be making a new mass effct 5? I would think so, because I would. This secret shit is manipulation and insult to customers to keep you as a EA/BioWare customer. As much as I would love to see a beautiful ME game, because I love the franchise. EA is uncontrollably greedy. Unless they change in the industry, a ME5 will never happen. It is in my opinion they may stay with Anthem. Why? I haven't the fatest idea. It would be a bad choice if they do. I figure that EA can just load the game with more Loot boxes and other monetary spending options for the game. ME games aren't devised that way. In my experience Casey Hudson didn't come back to fix ME trilogies. EA owns BioWare so pretty much EA is the "Boss". All Andromeda was, was a pacifier for die Hard ME fans to shut up and go away. And pretty much is what happen. So, I don't believe we'll see another ME game ever. Though I hope I'm wrong, but the trend in video industry isn't about customer satisfaction.

Well, try to explain that to EA/Bioware.
EA dropped the Visceral's Star Wars game because it didn't had lightsabers, Chewbaccas and jedis, among other reasons.
I really fear that ME have turned into the same thing: we need to have krogans, N7 and some alliance type, otherwise is not ME.

I can go without N7 (I thought it was out of place in MEA), but removing Krogans, Turians or well... Quarians, makes the game less "ME-ish" to me I don't mind adding new races, or developing existing ones (Batarians, Volus, ...) but companions are a big part of the game, and discovering their culture too

I don't need the actual species necessarily, but I want their (or offshoots, or different takes on their) involvement somehow.
I was okay with MEA having no Geth because the narrative at least suggested something about them was possible for the future.
And the Quarian Ark is super contrived, but it did similarly.
If a major species is absolutely never to be seen/alive/involved again, I think it should be the biggest sort of deal and effectively forced by any player choice (so not ME3 Krogan/Quarian/Geth choices; I wanted these to affect a hell of a lot, but not write the species into a corner).
Just IMO.
