Bioware suggests keeping Mass Effect 3 saves may be a good idea

Bioware has made it clear that Mass Effect 3 won't be the last story in the Mass Effect universe, just the end of Commander Shepard's story. The developer has now suggested that players not delete their Mass Effect 3 save anytime soon.

It wouldn't be a bad idea," associate producer Mike Gamble told GamerZines. "Obviously I can't say anything," he said, "but it wouldn't be a bad idea..."

While this doesn't confirm that Mass Effect 4 will pick up after the events of Mass Effect 3 (it could be a prequel) this may also hint at future DLC plans. Bioware supported Mass Effect 2 with several content packs of varying quality.

Earlier this week Mike Gamble spoke to Eurogamer and told them that the ending of Mass Effect 3 may make some gamers angry.

"It's going to make some people extremely happy; it's going to make some people angry," he said. "But that's part of it, right? To invoke the emotion putting some of these stories to bed will naturally bring up."
