They wouldn't end a game with hints for another if that wasn't the intent I think they intended to follow up on those with DLC etc. You'll get closure through books and related media, as Casey promised, instead. I mean, the studio shut down, so it's not like they can follow up on that. Maybe the timing is wrong but wait too long and it's irrelevant That's not a good thing. The Quarian plot maybe but the rest was meant for a sequel. Also that's my point they cant wait to follow up

Also that's my point they cant wait to follow up It's almost getting to be too long between DAI and DA4, whenever it eventually comes out. Having to wait 7-8 years for a friggin' cliffhanger to be resolved is ridiculous. And then 7-8 yrs for the next ME, and maybe even longer for a follow up to MEA? You may as well not even make a sequel at that point. No one will give a shit anyway.

If we never get anymore content in Andromeda, I'm just going to assume the Kett who walks into the camera at the end actually just walks over to a table and eats a bowl of Kett-Os. They're like Cheerios, but crunchier.

You and I and possibly a few others like Cerberus. What if Bioware were to make Cerberus great again like they were in ME2 before becoming the Keystone Cops in ME3? What if it's Miranda who brings them back to their greatness?
Lets take a walk down memory lane. In ME3, on Cronos, TIM tell's Shepard, Cerberus isn't an organization or the people behind it. Cerberus is an idea. That idea is not so easily destroyed.
In ME2, when talking with Miranda before going to Freedom's Progress, she says, I believe in what Cerberus stands for. I know at the end of ME2 she resigns and they're after her in ME3, but she believes some good can come from them.
I'm sure you've read my idea about ME4, but what if there's a slide after the credits showing Miranda beside two tanks containing clones of herself and TIM? Something similar to what is seen with Mordin in this slide
The sequel to MEA will have Cora being approached by someone who claims to have information about her past. She ends up traveling with him to an unknown location. It turns out to be a moon with the construction of a relay above. She learns she's the daughter of Jack Harper. She learns everything about him even sees/hears a message from TIM. After some careful thinking. she decides to take TIM's advice and become the head of Cerberus in Andromeda. She becomes the Illusive Woman(TIW). She learns that Cerberus was able to find the plans to building a relay after visiting Ilos before the council was able to investigate. In the time she has been traveling to Andromeda, Cerberus was building a realy in the Milky Way to link to Andromeda. What Cerberus did was refit an old Allaince ship to travel to Andromeda. The interior is very similar to the ship Cora travel on except aq much smaller scale. Only about 100 people made the trip. With help from a lot of drones and mechs, building a relay in Andromeda wouldn't take long. Of course the relay is not as big as the relays in the Milky Way. They left the Milky Way about 6 months before the Andromeda Initiative left. At the end of the game, Cora gets to travel back to the Milky Way.
She meets a female and male
female voice: Welcome back to the Milky Way Ms. Harper. male voice: Cora. It's good to finally meet you. Shall we get started?
The next game will start at the beginning with Cora learning more about Cerberus and what they've done over the last several hundred years. Aleins are working for Cerberus. The corporation is partners with the council. She even walks through the Cerberus Hall of Fame. She sees a statue of Jacob, Miranda, TIM, Rupert Gardner, the Cerberus Phantom and the Cerberus Gymnast and finally a statue of Shepard. A meeting with the council is arranged. She asks them to travel back to Andromeda to help deal with a threat that the Initiative isn't able to deal with. This is where the character creator screen pops up for the player to customize their character. You are a human with a military background. You decided to leave to become aq bounty hunter. You're tasked with going to Andromeda with Cora to investigate the Kett and to see what resolution you can come up with.
Throughout the game, you encounter the Kett. At the end, you decide to bring in more forces from the Milky Way. It's determined that to stop the kett, you have to travel to their homeworld. During the game, ships can be seen traveling through the relay to provide supplies to the Nexus and outposts.
The next game will be about dealing with the kett on their homeworld.
Realizing that the games have sold very well, Bioware will make more games with Cerberus playing a major role.

Good ideas. One of my ideas is that Cerberus Phantom meets Cora Harper and take down a group of Paragon of Our Kind that is back by Batarians to disrupt a project related to the Andromeda Initiative. Cora Harper makes a passing comment that she is the daughter of Jack Harper. Cerberus Phantom mentions that He know of him and works for him and depending on the dialogue, you can roleplay how you views on T.I.M. and Cerberus. I have no problems to expand that entire quest that see the entirety of Andromeda Initiative and a functional prequel to ME:A if need be. Also I don't have a problem in using Alec Ryder and Cora Harper joining the Cerberus Phantom to take down several Paragon of Our Kind and Black Talons in order to save Andromeda Initiative.

Prefer they not do this. First any remnants of non Reaperized Cerberus would likely be hunted by the council. Second they'd never partner with Cerberus after what they did in the war. This would make no sense.

Cloning big bads to bring them back is so 1990s Star Wars Expanded Universe (now "Legends"). Besides, is a group that's not 1) racist or "humanity first" 2) trying to weaponize mostly everything they come across 3) actually more of threat to humanity than the oh-so-bad, evil oppressive "Aliens" 4) preventing the player from expressing their stance on them and acting on it really properly Cerberus?

This would make no sense. I trust Cerberus more than I do the asari after failing to reveal an artifact that could have ended the war earlier leading to the possibility of saving many lives. With Cerberus taken care of by Shepard in ME3, the other species will turn to the asari for them to explain about not revealing that artifact. Depending on the results, bad things could happen to the asari.

Depending on the results, bad things could happen to the asari. Really? How public is the knowledge of what the artifact contained? Shepard, Liara, and another of Shepard's squadmates. The temple is collapsed, the beacon itself is probably destroyed; and regardless, Vendetta was removed. TIM is dead, Leng is dead, and Benezia, if she knew, is dead. The Asari councillor will certainly just bury the issue. I think you're overestimating the scruitiny the issue would come under, particularly after everyone did collaborate to end of the Reaper War (however you choose to see it end).
If you're going to say that Shepard will blow the whistle... I'll remind you how easily the Council diverted questions and were able to deny the existence of the Reapers despite the one that rained down on the Citadel destroying whole sectors of it... and Vigil just conveniently shut down.

I'll remind you how easily the Council diverted questions and were able to deny the existence of the Reapers despite the one that rained down on the Citadel destroying whole sectors of it. I doubt they would question Shepard since she/he was right about the reapers. Sure they would be suspicious, but when Shepard points out that the asari didn't want anything to do with being at the summit, it would likely cause the other council members to hear an answer from the asari as to why? If that information were to be leaked, say to a nosy reporter, that could lead to an outcry from the public demanding something be done to the asari for what they did.
If it's overlooked, than why can't Cerberus be overlooked? How many lives were lost because the asari failed to reveal that artifact earlier versus how many lives were taken by Cerberus?

Because the entirety of the Cerberus organization committed their crimes whereas only a few asari Matriarchs, all of whom are probably dead, knew about the Beacon. Even the Councilor only found out when she was told to tell Shepard. What you’re suggesting would be even more ridiculous than punishing all of humanity because of Cerberus.

Is there anything saying only a few knew about the artifact? Even if they're dead, the public will want answers and possibly some type of retaliation for what the asari did. Is that the councilor from ME1? I ask because I've never saved them in ME1 leaving me with the replacements. The asari councilor I talk with never mentioned she just found out. She says we have an artifact... and then a moment later says, there's a balance of power they don't wish to upset. Meaning they wanted to remain top dog in the galaxy.
What answer will she give if the other councilors ask her about that?

What answer will she give if the other councilors ask her about that? Hmm, interesting. I never have the replacement so yes the dialogue is different. Tevos talks about how the artifact is only known about in the highest level of their government, whereas yours doesn’t. She also is a lot more ignorant of what it is, saying it may help you find the Catalyst while yours says in a cloak and dagger way that it will identify it. Makes sense I suppose since the replacement is a Matriarch so part of that highest level.

If you're going to say that Shepard will blow the whistle... I'll remind you how easily the Council diverted questions and were able to deny the existence of the Reapers despite the one that rained down on the Citadel destroying whole sectors of it. I doubt they would question Shepard since she/he was right about the reapers. Sure they would be suspicious, but when Shepard points out that the asari didn't want anything to do with being at the summit, it would likely cause the other council members to hear an answer from the asari as to why? If that information were to be leaked, say to a nosy reporter, that could lead to an outcry from the public demanding something be done to the asari for what they did.
If it's overlooked, than why can't Cerberus be overlooked? How many lives were lost because the asari failed to reveal that artifact earlier versus how many lives were taken by Cerberus?
I think the way it would play out would be this if Shepard tried to say the Asari hid things without definitive proof (which he/she no longer has because, as I said, the temple was destroyed, Vendetta removed). I think the question as to which race was hiding things would fall on the humans. The first beacon that was made public was found by humans and viewed by Shepard on Eden Prime, Vigil was found by, you guessed it, Shepard, the plans for the Crucible were by on Mars by, you guessed it, Shepard. Who then extorts a ton of help and resources from all the other races in the galaxy to build that Crucible; and then, the Catalyst (the key component) is found by, you guessed it, Shepard. It was a peaceful galaxy, lead by the Asari for more than 2,000 years and no sign of Reapers before the humans came along. The Asari will easily deflect the heat onto the humans. Justice isn't always served.
The damage inflected by Cerberus (a human organization) on the galaxy will just fortify a negative opinion about humanity.
That's the trouble with being right when foretelling doom... The question will become... did the humans just foretell the invasion or did they bring it on? Saren never let on that he viewed the beacons before Shepard... for all anybody outside a select group knows, Shepard activating that first beacon on Eden Prime is what brought the Reapers out of hibernation. No one else alive saw what he/she saw through them.
PS: ... and all the nosy reporters in the game are, you guessed it... human.

If any race would get in trouble after the war, it’d probably be the Salarians between all their secrets and the government not even wanting to help unless you do everything they want (thankfully the military can decide differently).

The sequel to MEA will have Cora being approached by someone who claims to have information about her past. She ends up traveling with him to an unknown location. It turns out to be a moon with the construction of a relay above. She learns she's the daughter of Jack Harper. It's been already stated that she isn't, her parents were frighter pilots who disappeared long after Cerberus was formed.

Well it will not be the first nor the last time that within Mass Effect that a retcon was used. Cora Harper with or without being connected to Jack Harper, is still a good character.

I think the way it would play out would be this if Shepard tried to say the Asari hid things without definitive proof (which he/she no longer has because, as I said, the temple was destroyed, Vendetta removed). Are you sure about Vendetta? It was taken from Thessia to Cronos. It talked with Shepard. Shepard leaves with Vendetta just standing there. I would say Vendetta is still around on Cronos. After Thessia, edi tells T'soni that the penalty for withholding prothean artifacts is severe.
The question will not fall on humans, but on the asari for breaking a council law, a law they made. Is it because they believe they're above the law? I would say yes after what the replacement asari councilor said. Extorts? Shepard had to help the other species solve their problems before they would give any help. And if the humans didn't show up, that so-called peaceful galaxy you call would have been harvested. And who are fans of the nosy reporters? You guessed it, the other species.
