User blog comment:TheUnknown285/Things You Do and Don’t Want from ME4/@comment-4923296-20140617091539

I pretty much agree with all of your wants and not-wants. For me personally, I'd like to see sort of a good inventory system. The inventory system in ME1 was horrid in that after I defeat a couple Geth enemies, I had to keep checking my damn inventory because I got new items and had to decide what to do with them (I just converted it to omni-gel). The inventory was messy and a pain to navigate when you inevitably got too many items. I didn't want the inventory and modding system to be completely scrapped like it was in ME2, I just wanted it to be better designed. I was very happy when ME3 brought back mods, still no inventory system though!

My suggestion would be to allow the option to toss items away (I felt very uncomfortable ending up with like several million credits near the end of ME1 cos I had to sell items) and sub-categorize armour and even further: add in a light armour, medium armour and heavy armour inventory section. And don't make every weapon and armour have different spaces for mods, just give them all the same spaces of 2 for armour and 2 for weapons (and 1 for an ammo mod).

As for like setting and story, I'd like the game to be set anytime before the events of ME3 so that player choice is considered. It'd be very unfair I think if a canon choice at the end of ME3 was picked and a canon romance option was decided, it should be up to the player to make their own canon which I enjoy doing for the ME series. Besides, I love my Destroy ending, I'd be super pissed if Synthesis was picked, or likewise for the Synthesis/Control likers if Destroy was picked. The game could also be potentially set before the trilogy even begins (how far before it, I'm not sure). Or..... if they really wanna be interesting, they could set the game in a new galaxy altogether. It'd be a great twist to start, all this time we've been in the Milky Way which ever since the Leviathan downfall, has been part of the Reaper harvest cycle. What if the next game was set in a different galaxy which was never part of the Reaper harvest to being with? It'd allow a completely new story to take place. Only problem with that is that I think I saw a Krogam in the trailer. Oh well, I can dream until more details are released...

Anyways, great blog.
