Andromeda DLC and Sequel Discussion (Spoilers)

Quarian Ark DLC, for sure.

Update was completely technical in nature. Basically the first major patch comes out Thursday and will make some structural changes. They are planning basically two months of patches to address 90% of the major issues people have. That's all they touched on.

However, in 2 months we will be into June and that is the time we would likely start looking at the first DLC. They would want this technical stuff resolved before they start rolling it out.

This game comes the closest to laying the foundation where I think it would almost make sense to play as another race. As I said above I think its totally possible if they skip far enough down the road, given the level of integration the iniative has required its totally possible you could play as a new generation of pathfinders and select your race.

I also hope there will be more complexity to the Kett. I heard mention of a Senate which suggests power games which could make them an intriguing and complex race.

The Jaardan and the Scourge Aliens are going to be very interesting to learn about. I have this sneaking susupecion though that the Jaardan may be an AI race.....not positive but I could see it. I think the Angara could end up being their attempt to re-create their original creators....Could be totally wrong but have been toying with that idea for a while.

105hours to read/complete all content on insanity. All the most interesting stuff was hidden away in random data pads.

1st DLC: Quarian Ark. There's 3-4 hidden multiplayer character slots that will be filled every 2 weeks and then DLC will introduce a new batch. They might stagger new races MP releases if they continue with this APEX story missions theme.

2nd DLC: 1-2 more Angaran planets. It was hinted at, multiple times, that there are other Angaran planets being kept secret from us. It's an easy choice for content. Two possibilities here:
a) This'll be used an opportunity to learn more about the Jaardan and might explain why the Angaran's were created. The idea is mentioned that since Angaran's can pass down memory heriditarily that it would be possible to create 'sleeper' agents where a past life could awaken to take control of a present day Angaran. Expect this to happen now or in the sequel. The 'Boss' of the dlc might even be a rogue Jaardan who downloaded himself into Angaaran dna.
Based on Angaran myth you'll be searching these planets for a cure for your mom.

3rd DLC: End of the Kett in Heleus. The new Kett leader is small-time. You've had multiple interactions with him, so he needs to be dealt with, but he's not sequel worthy. It's been revealed that the Archon was not sending reports home. The new guy will send a report home and the conclusion of his arc will set up where we stand with the Kett Empire in the sequel.
MP: There was a datapad on Voeld showing that exalted Kett retain some memories/feelings. With the main force vanquished we might see Kett traitor characters playable in MP. Alternatively if they want to push for a 4th enemy we might see Kett reinforcements show up with new a roster (Destined is the only unit non-native to Heleus. Ascendant have adapted Angaaran electromagnetics, so if they do appear again they will have a different power set.) The Kett are really a great trilogy enemy because of the unit diversity allowed by the exaltation process.

The Sequel: 10years. We'll have deciphered Jaardan tech enough for star system travel, but there will still be Heleus conflicts to resolve. You'll get to spend some time exploring what your outposts have become and resolve some side missions revolving around Heleus's new culture.
I see the main story going one of two ways:
a) The story starts with a new Kett invasion that you have to deal with in the first half and then take the fight to the Kett in the second half.
You're setting off for the very first exploration mission in new star clusters, looking for new allies against the kett.
Either way, expect a lot of Kett focus with a final mission culminating on their home planet (Sarhesen).

Triquel: The Kett are broken, but not defeated. Remember they have Archon's all over the galaxy, factions will form. There will be more races to discover under Kett heel, but the main focus will be on the enemy of the Jaardan (or the Jaardan themselves depending how it all plays out).

Other Sequel spoilers:
Eos: One of the engineers already has plans written up for infrastructure and a vast railway system. Will be a cool place to explore. There will likely be a conflict scenario with Advent, the exile colony on Eos.
Meridian: It was hinted at that the Archon wasn't killed, he just had his consciousness absorbed into Meridian. He'll probably gain digital consciousness, take over parts of the planet, and send remnant after you.
Habitat 7: Won't be terraformed yet. There might be a mission to fix the remnant tech here. Or it might be saved as a last hurrah where the Ryder family settles here at the end of the trilogy.
Rogue Remnant User: They started a program to create a remnant user outside of the pathfinder initiative. You'll have to deal with him/them at some point.
Benefactor: The Benefactor has had very little presence so far. With new threats on the horizon it's hard to imagine him being a major villian. He is a murderer, but that doesn't necessarily make him Ryder's enemy. He'll likely have some lore and a side mission where you choose to expose him or leave him be, which will have benefits later on.
One of the first data pads you read hints that the arks went off course 300 years after launch. At first I thought this may be 'benefactor' related, but more likely it lines up with the scourge event simply screwing with navigation sensors.

Alien Races:
If you side with the Salarian traitor he gives you intel on 3 races that will appear in the sequel (Kett have 12+ vassal species):
Eealen - Exalted past viable population. Now nomads who document and share knowledge. (One could show up at the start of the sequel to set events in motion)
Thusali - Once worshipped the Remnant. Engineers exalted for Remnant expertise.
Sirinde ("Eat their dead with reverance") - Genetically poisioned themselves to stop exaltation. Now dependant on kett neuroscience to survive.

No doubt one of the DLC's will be based around the Quarian ark.

I'd like one to delve further into the remnant, an indiana jones style story to find some remnant artifact would be good.

i don't think we need a citadel style dlc at this stage

For a sequel..

I'd be happy for it to be based on ryder again. I hope they don't jump forward in time more than a year or two. I think they should keep the wild west vibe rather than jumping to the completed colonisation vibe. I hope we'll see some integration of remnant technology into the settlements.

The kett empire are clearly going to be an ongoing threat in any sequels.

I would like to play as Pathryder primarily as well, but I would still like it if there were scenes where you play as your sibling. 

I would like to see a story heavy DLC focused on the Quarian Ark and a "Citadel" like DLC where we can spend more time and interact with our crew.

Primus is only on of the kett leaders. The kett have multiple archons and when they found out he died as well as a big chunk of kett forces in helius they will likely bring ALOT more ships and troops.

Anyone else thinks Meridian map will be 1-year-anniversary DLC? They basically teasing it with game dialogue "come back in a year and you won't recognize this place". Obviously plans can change but dataminign already revealed there's more Meridian map post-ending and considering this tease I think it's very likely that Meridian DLC is/was at least one of their planned expansion as final year-after DLC
