While I would prefer to carry things over in a save game type of thing. I know it is easier with the dragons keep type thing. But what do you think should we have a dragons keep type thing for the next mass effect game to carry over our choices?

Yes. By the time we get MEA2 I pretty sure the PS5 will be out so we won't be able to transfer data.

MassEffectArchives.comI'm placing my bets that it'll open up a keep-like choice-table (like Tapestry) in a few months just like DA:I did after a while.

I wouldn't mind a Dragons Keep type thing, if it was built into the game, but if it is a separate program or a website, then no. There is no reason Dragons Keep couldn't have been built into Inquisition. And the thing is ME2 was terrible, most choices weren't even covered, so if it is part of the game, don't do it that way.

Definitely. I think it's important for future games to know I killed Kalinda or saved the female Salarian Pathfinder. All very important for the meta.

They'll have something most likely for those who don't get MEA but get MEA2.

I wouldn't mind a Keep for Mass Effect, but unless they change game engines, and I don't believe they will, it wouldn't matter to those with an ME:A save file.

They should have it to avoid bugs that mess with previous decisions.
I love how Dragon Age Keep laid the series out.

I think its the best thing to have instead of save files transfer, I remember when I played the first mass effect on the xbox 360 of my brother, then I wanted to import my saves in mass effect 2 that I bought on ps3 but I could not. Only throught an interactive comics that was still lacking decision of the first like kirahe survival and many side quests results repercussion in ME 2.
I really wants a keep for MEA 2, if it could be included directly on the game, that would be perfect.

Dragon Age: Inquisition was the first time where I was able to have a playthrough with a save import that wasn't bugged in some way or another.

Yes, absolutely. While it not necessary needs to completely replace a save transfer, I think some alternative options to "transfer" decisions of previous games without having to replay them would be nice. I think Witcher 3 nailed it in that respect - there you can either import your save game from Witcher 2, or answer some questions about past events in a dialogue, somewhat similar mechanic to Dragon Age keep.

Yes. It solved a lot of problems, and also eliminated the need to use editors or keep replaying just to get different save files.

Yes. The Dragon Keep isn't perfect, I'm sure, but it definitely is useful if you want to change one of the major choices you made in the game, without slogging back through hours upon hours of gameplay to do it.

The Keep is one of BioWare's best ideas ever. It cut down on the hassle of save game importing by a huge factor, and if you wanted to make some small changes you could do it without having to play the whole previous game(s) over from scratch. I really hope they'll be making a similar page for future ME games.

Dragon Keep never worked for me. For whatever reason, there is a hero in DAO that have a name I would choose, but the decission made seem wrong. And there is nothing for DA2. I actualy would ahve to reinstall both DAO and DA2, import my saves manualy and let the games synchronize with the Dragon Keep, but since I have no idea what data is transfered and I do not trust EA, this is not going to happen (and I know a lot of you give sh... about privacy protection, but I do not). So if I can not import a save file manualy, where I at least know what data they get, there is no way using it. Dragon Keep is worthless to me, all the previous plays and decisions were for the birds. Had to play DAI with default world state. Fine. In my eyes, if they do the same with MEA, they can as well forget about it and save the ressources needed elsewhere.
(edit) PS: I am playing around with the Dragon Keep and it is not working right. Alistair died killing the Archdemo and Loghain is well, but this is not allowed in Dragon Keep, so even "importing" a save wouldnt make the world I shaped. So EA, go to... where the sun does not shine.

If they don't get rid of save transfers I have no problem with it.
I've never had an issue with "corrupted" saves or save point bugs before.
I have had Inquisitions keep change my entire game on the fly at least twice though.
And uf the servers go down your game is screwed you can't play those decisions at all.
So I don't think I'd use it. But other people are other people.
Its inferior.

I really hope they come up with something similar to the Dragon Keep. It was just so easy to tweak
your save game on the fly without having to play the whole thing over from the start and or close to it.

No. It worked for DA because there wasn't the same sense of series continuation like we got in the MET. I'd rather make choices and import them into MEA2. Or, alternately, they could have an ME 'Keep' to work in place of Genesis (which sucked) but not something that would replace imported save games. There are too many nuances in the game that could carry over in a save but not through a Keep.

The reason DAI needed a keep was because DAI was not a soft reboot. The world state from DAO and DA2 was still very relevant to DAI (we saw DAI's villain wake up in a DA2 DLC for crying out loud). Also since the initiative left the Milky Way between ME 2 and ME 3 so I imagine the only choices Shepard made that was public knowledge would be the fate of the council and maybe whether or not Balak survived (though the public probably would not know the details or even that it was Shepard that stopped Balak) I imagine pretty much everything Shepard did in ME2 was classified). Besides all of it was 600 years ago for the initiative so not relevant to them anymore.

<Puts on his "That Guy" hat>
I rather they not have a lot of choices going into the next game, it just seems that a lot of expectations were never fulfilled in the game because people expected ground breaking alterations in the game because "choices carried forward". I think having something in the game directly would give a good indication of how many choices we will see in the game. Kinda like how in Andromeda you get to pick the gender of Shepard and that is all, which gives a pretty clear indication that nothing matters from before.
One thing I noticed is that BioWare left themselves room not to have choices carrying forward either, the clearest example I can think of is when you complete the mission to rescue the Moshae when you go back to Aya you basically are told people support or don't support your choice you made. I really don't think there are a lot of choices that really matter in the long run either. Now if they had a selection in the game where you could import from either an "internet repository" / Save Game Import / manual enter I think that would be the best, but an idea of how many choices will carry forward I think is needed if they decide to import choices at all.
