As Bioware puts it, Shepard\u2019s story \u201cwill come to an end\u201d, which sounds suspiciously like he\u2019s going to get dropped down an elevator shaft.<\/p>\n<p>So why the save games? The obvious answers are some kind of sequel or prequel, or less exciting, some downloadable content.<\/p>\n<p>As for Commander Shepard\u2019s story \u201ccoming to an end\u201d, Bioware told Eurogamer that the ending is probably going to make some people very angry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s going to make some people extremely happy; it&#8217;s going to make some people angry,&#8221; Gamble said. &#8220;But that&#8217;s part of it, right? To invoke the emotion putting some of these stories to bed will naturally bring up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Please, please can it just be better than Lost.<\/p>\n<h5>Source: <a title=\"Eurogamer\" href=\"http:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/articles\/2012-02-03-bioware-suggests-keeping-mass-effect-3-saves\" target=\"_blank\">Eurogamer<\/a><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>But they aren&#8217;t saying why<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":165,"featured_media":31274,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3,4],"tags":[31,427,2252,423,2253],"class_list":["post-32001","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","category-pc","category-xbox","tag-active","tag-bioware","tag-commander-shepard","tag-mass-effect-3","tag-mike-gamble"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32001","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/165"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32001"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32001\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31274"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32001"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32001"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32001"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
