User blog comment:Agentsmit58/Shepard's story has truly ended and wont have DLC to continue the story!!!/@comment-4950455-20120528001343

To be honest, I think this is a good thing. No matter what else you might say about the ending of ME3 - and there's quite a few things I would - it does feature the defeat of the Reapers. Continuing Shepard's story beyond that, in any form except some kind of epilogue, would smack of dragging it out past the natural ending point.

That said, the idea that it's supposed to reassure people about the ending is... odd. Frankly, I'd be quite surprised if any future games in the Mass Effect setting take place after the ending of ME3 - there's just too many possible differences in the possible outcomes. I think we're much more likely to see some kind of prequel.
