Like I hate that we might not ever see another Mass Effect game, but honestly I had little faith the current Bioware would even be able to do it justice. They've had massive talent drain and clearly couldn't get development up and running.
Bioware was the one who wouldnt change or fix the endings that put the franchise in the position its in. They've never been able to take the franchise forward largely because they fucked up Mass Effect 3 with those terrible, dog shit endings.
It would have been easy enough to retcon them. Use Audemus's Happy Ending Mod for a good example of what it should have looked like and go from there. I suppose now we'll never have that, but I'll always have that mod and how much it means.
Yes. Which most companies don't readily do, but they did mess it up and it'd be easier to just come clean with that. None of the endings make for a decent setup for a Mass Effect 5 or anything like that. So you have to do something, anyway. The lack of a canon ending is almost a blessing, at this point.
Would that I had billions to spend on it! Of course, then I'd be obligated to do something perhaps more productive, but still. ME5, official licensed Mass Effect Roleplaying Game, and more would be hitting the field, you better believe that.
