I want a Mass Effect game that Bioware makes fun of everyone including EA, their Fans and gamers in general.

I'm voting no only because it'll never happen. BioWare won't release an MEA in Andromeda and one in the MW. They'll choose one and go with only one.

Splitting the franchise in two as I see it would kill the franchise for you are dividing the playerbase. BioWare games have never been huge successes and have only recently been hitting higher sales as they start to chase trends. My concern is if they lose players because they aren't interested and just going to wait for the other half of the franchise you are going to lose lets say 10-20% of the players and that might be enough to remove the profitability of the games.
As far as the internal state at BioWare, I am pretty sure developers talk to one another and have a much more accurate description to what is going on at BioWare and how different it is or isn't from the rest of the industry. For I remember going all the way back to Dragon Age: Origins developers were talking about taking time off after a game that was on the longer side of things. So I think the complaints that were raised in that Kotaku article were already well known in the industry.

As long as they went forward with Andromeda it'd be fine for me. I'd play the MW one too, of course, though I haven't much interest in such game atm.
Not that I think they'll ever go this way in any case. Might as well go shout I HAVE NO IDEA WHICH DIRECTION I WANT FOR MY IP from the rooftop of BioWare's HQ.

I don't really think it will matter how much time will have passed.....but when Bioware announces "Andromeda 2?"...that will automatically make folks remember how mediorce Andromeda was... You can't split the franchises because EA isn't going to spend money splitting the franchises and EA already made it's statement when it shut down the DLC and stopped overall support for Andromeda. I wouldn't mind going back to Andromeda, but i don't have faith in Bioware in writing a solid follow-up to it, since the writing in Andromeda was mediorce at best. I wouldn't mind going back to the MW and Bioware choosing the scene where Shep lives and they follow up maybe 5-7 years during the rebuilding period when they are hit with another threat.....not Reaper/universal wide threat, but some other alien faction looking to dominate while the races are rebuilding. I think that would blow peoples mind if the next Bioware trailer featured Shep rising from the ashes....and the title being flashed "AFTERMATH"...across his chest... ...i think that would garner much more interest than an Andromeda sequel....Shep and the crew back again?...sign me up!....

I am in favor of Andromeda just being continued in comics or occasionally mentioned. I want to return to the Milky Way. Andromeda can be like Ultimate Marvel or Age of Apocalypse. Occasionally referenced, but not mainly focused on. I only see two ways a MW game can work. One is a prequel and the second is an mmo. The mmo would have the advantage of being able to be placed anywhere in the timeline with minimal issues regarding the ending.

Well, they could evolve both galaxies for different audiences: gritty space opera in the Milky Way, young adult sitcom in Andromeda.

A lot can happen in that 5-7 year range that might have something that you as the player may want to have been part of, instead of hearing it through dialogue. I would make it about 1-2 years at the most. It gives a bit of time for the galaxy to catch their breath and to figure out if the reapers remain a threat even after they've been destroyed. A trailer? Hmmm...Aha.
As the video starts, the camera looks out towards a city on Earth with a few destroyed reapers on the ground. Jennifer Hale's voice is heard. " It has been(insert amount of time) since the reapers were destroyed. Countless lives have been lost. Earth is rebuilding just as the rest of the galaxy is rebuilding. I have been asked if there are more reapers out there, somewhere. Do they pose a threat? My name is Commander Shepard. To answer those questions, myself and my team, along with the crew of the Normandy, will travel to unknown places and finally to darkspace to find out." Just as Hale's voice is heard, the camera moves towards a large hill. The music heard in the background is Ectasy of Gold by Ennio Morricone from the movie The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. As the camera gets closer to the hill, a shuttle is seen with someone standing near it. It's Shepard with her red hair, now long, holding her helmet at her side.

Yeah Andromeda wasn't perfect but your idea? Nope so much nope. Shep is done and I dont want cannon endings. Yeah a canon ending for ME3 would be an immediate no buy for me. And Ryder > Shepard. I can respect this....you have folks on both sides on the aisle on this. Not sure why a cannon ending bothers some folks tho...i get it that Bioware structured this thing to be "your story", but there was no way Bioware was going to satisfy everybody. You can relish in the memory of the choice you picked for your Shep. in the trilogy, but if Bioware chose an ending and ran with it, it would be no different than you watching a movie with its ending already structured from beginning to end. But eh...i understand...some folks feel Sheps story is done and its time to move on...but uhm Ryder > Shep?.....urm..uh... ...hard for me to get behind that one...but while i wasn't looking for Shep 2.o in Ryder, i also wasn't looking for doormat Ryder 1.0...lol...yeah he/she is young and got thrown into the leadership position, but ahhh nevermind, this will turn into another Andromeda vs Trilogy debate and i almost fell into that void.....so i respect that some like Ryder and others like Shep....

Yeah a canon ending for ME3 would be an immediate no buy for me You'd buy it regardless. The moment you'd see the flashy trailer, you'd go weak at the knees and cave in.
