what do you want to see in a future mass effect player character? Inspired by other threads. I do want to see where other BSN players genuinely want to have.

Shepard if we are in the milky way. However if they go back to andromeda I hope the ryder twins are the main character well one ryder twin. I didn't have a problem with them but I really wish they could get a better VA. I don't know why I didn't like the VA's but I just didn't.

I'd like to have the Ryder twins return. I liked them, and they have some story thinfs left unresolved so I"d like those all dealt with before moving onto a new protagonist.
When we do move on to a new protagonist, I hope they follow Dragon Age's lead and have race options.

I voted Ryders, with a different VA for Sara. Part of me wonders if the reason so many people didn't like her VA's performance (me included) was because jennifer hale (who did fem sheps voice) was so epic with fem shep. It's a hard act to follow. I might be wrong and am not saying it's why you didn't like her.

I don't like her voice because she alternates between whiny and screechy at critical parts of the game. I'd say probably 70%, even 80%, of the time her voice is fine, but the other 20-30% ruins it for me. It's the main reason why I played as Sara only twice, while I've played as Scott 4 times.

Race choice would be cool so I voted new protag. I just worry that adding different body types will make them give us less game. Unless they do pretty much the same body with different skins which would limit it to asari,human,and drell. The problem I had in DAI with this was the qunari didn't get good looking armor for the most part and the dwarfs were lacking as well. Alot of it looked exactly the same. That said if we get a new protaginist I do hope we get a race choice although I think it would be limited to human like races.

Well I would like to see a Demo with a Volus for either galaxy to get a feel for a Future Mass Effect game. There are many stories for a Volus Player character to be told.

Most people here should know this by now, but since people keep asking the same question, here's my answer yet again.
My first preference is to continue on with the Ryder twins and allow the current story to fully develop. I would advance the timeline by about 10 years, making them approximately Shepard's age. Both the story and the personalities of the twins can develop over that time to take on mood the mode and flavor of the OT (although I'm personally OK with the mood and flavor of ME:A, I'm not adverse to it being changed).
Alternatively, I would be fine with them introducing a new player character but still continuing with the story in the Andromeda galaxy.
I do not really want them at all to reintroduce Shepard in another game.

Other races were added to DAI in 1 year after 2 years of development from the ground up based around humans only. A game with 3 years of dev time where multiple races are intended from the start would be better about it. In theory at least, they could, and likely would, fuck it up in practice.

My idea is that they would carefully explain that the next game would be what would happen if you picked high ems destroy. However they would emphisis that this is only one outcome and they aren't retconning your choices but the games going forward with a shepard who chose high ems destroy. So if you choose another ending it wouldn't effect you. Yeah it is kinda weak but that way people wouldn't feel like their choices were completly ignored.

The only way ME can survive as a franchise is with a return, temporarily at least, to Shepard, in order to remain relevant in the currently very competitive AAA gaming industry.
Change my mind.

The crucible itself is their big out in my opinion. Nobody really knew it's full capabilities, it was all just guess work. It's true effects could unlock infinite story potential for Shepard and the Milky Way. |

I suppose a Control Shep could make themselves a body so you could play as them, but you'd have to pull some plot bullshit to handwave why it's not an uber nigh-invulnerable body that you can respawn at will and why you can't sic Reapers on mobs. But even then you have all the Synthesis, low-EMS Destroy and Refuse Sheps who are dead.
