[quote]Mass Effect 4’s story will not touch upon the events of the original story in the slightest, BioWare has revealed.
Discussing the upcoming sci-fi RPG’s plot with Complex, Mass Effect 3 writer Marc Walters said, “Well, I can’t get into details, but the idea is that we have agreed to tell a story that doesn’t relate necessarily to any of the Shepard events at all, whatsoever.
“That’s what we’ve been deciding for a while. But throughout it all, one of the key things is that it has to be Mass Effect. It can’t just feel like a spin-off. It has to feel like a Mass Effect game at its heart, at its core. Just without the Shepard character or the Shepard specific companions.”[/quote]
Is it possible that we could be looking at the start of a new trilogy? I sure hope so!

I'm really not sure what the story could possibly be about, will they be cliché and do one about the Leviathans post ME3 (somehow) or will they do a prequel in the cycle that ME Trilogy takes place in? If they do a prequel it'd be awfully hard to top the Reapers are the main threat, anything else would just seem kind of boring unless they went REALLY far back and did a prequel in an entirely different cycle.
