your right i didnt answer it straight up but its in there. here are my reasons why i think ME3 should not be the end of shepard. first ME3 did not come close to the potential of actual reaper combat. second i hate playing a game, dying again and again playing through it just to see myself die again in the end( the first 2 arent in the post), and my main reason of the post was that the story is customized to the player, they make it so it turns into your story, you can be a renegade to the core or be a true blue and do whats right or a mix of both, you can fall in love or have one night stands, decide the fate of individuals and entire species and as you made these choices it molded the story to you. and ME2 is also my evidence that they can make it to where he lives or dies at the end of the games. see when he dies at the end of ME2 its not just a "game over you lose" it actually concludes the events of ME2, so if you were satisfied with that then that was the end of mass effect for you and your mass effect story (no one forced you to play the sequel) and if you were not satisfied you replayed the game until you survive and than you get to continue your mass effect story by importing your charcter into ME3. That is how ME2 is and how i think ME3 should be. if your satiisfied with shepard dying then that is the end of mass effect for you and your mass effect story, but if not than there will be another game for you to import your character into and play. I would love for them to do this. it should not affect in a negative way any of the ideas and future games that all of you want bioware to make without shepard, why because the story is customized to the player. any direction the story would go without shepard would not effect the story that he does survive in. lol that gave me an idea. with the story being customized to the player they should make another ME3 for players who choose to stick with shepard dying in ME2, they could let you be one of your old crew members or an entire new character, isnt that really why everyone is satisfied with shepards death you all want them to introduce a new character. Remember this is all sci-fi there is no " oh they cant do that" if there is a will there is a way and with fiction nothing is written in stone even if they said one thing it can always change.
