Welcome to Mass Effect Fanfic - where Buch expresses minority opinions in an annoying fashion and arguments ensue.

My (male) Revan was also a member of the Asian-American community. My female Revan was the one who looked exactly like a young Barbara Streisand. My Revan was the ratfaced looking guy in the bottom right corner. (Seriously, I think he looks like some sort of mob snitch.) Maybe it was fitting, seeing as how I always play Scoundrel. I don't really have a preference for a female Exile, but during my last playthrough, I used the male face the fanbase affectionately calls Jedi Jesus. And loved every second of it.

I love Buddy Jesus Exile. I even sometimes have quotes from the movie Dogma going though my head while playing.

I vote sequel generations after the fact. Prequels never end well because frankly... you know how they're going to end. Let's have a human civilian somewhere down the line who is asked to look into the Legacy of "The Shepard" and some fol-de-rol he/she doesn't even believe happened until dun dun dun... They meet Matriarch Liara

I was actually under the impression that the ending of ME3 was so wacky was because they were planning on doing a sequel series at some point. Instead of trying to deal with a mass (hehe) of choices that have to be accounted for after three games, they sorta funneled them all into three tunnels to either be explained or ignored later on.
But I feel like I heard Casey Hudson say something about how they weren't likely to place the story chronologically post-ME3. If that's the case, I'd still love to see an ME game that lets you play other races. Humans are boring, and I know this from working in retail. xD

There is lots of interesting history to draw on for prequels but unless their writing gets a lot better I don't feel they can pull it off without boring those of us who know how it ends.
