Acutally, it was thought the endings were so similar that it would be easy to write sequels. That was why they were so ambigous and left so many questions unanswered: so they could do whatever they liked. The galaxy has been reset to the same basic point with some exceptions so they dont have to follow any of the previous continuity.

The rebooted galaxy means that they can easily do a game in the far future and nothing needs to be different. The lack of effecient comunication and space travel for generations means by the time any governement establishs then it is easy to change everything to fit a new standard.

The krogan die out no matter what? Probably but we dont need to say, just dont include them. what about Shepard? Well it hs been so long and since everyting is rebooted history is hard to find, so its The Shepard. Just make him some vague legend and it works no matter what. Geth and the quarians? Well galaxy has been rebooted so we cut just cut them easy and make vauge comments that they may have died or disappeared. No issue.

A seqeul can be set in the far future doesnt seem that hard to do. The only real difference in that case is the possiblity that people can be normal or cyborgs based on your choices. BUt that is easy to change in the span of time too really. Either say the cyborgs died out or everyone gets cyborg implants. There, solved!
