LOL, I know it could be too soon... but still.. I was wondering what would majority of people would like better? A DLC to current game or rather the next Andromeda? Considering: ME:1 2007.... ME:2 2...
The time frame between ME3 and MEA was for two main reasons....
1) Swap over to Frostbite engine.
2) World build a new game and galaxy to inhabit.
They have most of the new world basics built, and they have better understanding of Frostbite, so I could see a 3-4 year development for MEA2, and thus a few good DLC before hand to help tide us over. And why 2-4 years, well anything less than 2 and you risk a really really rushed world and product, so I would rather see close to 4 on a new ME. Look at the issues with DA2 if you want to see what a 2 year release does for you.
It's interesting to think what Andromeda 2 might bring, but it might be a hard game to sell with this one's luke warm reception.
Nevertheless I have grown to love the game and It's kept me busy and happy for weeks. I think it's a case of releasing great DLC and fixing some of the games problems, making people turn around their negative opinions. This is where something like EA answers is so useful because it allows us to give our feedback and i've seen a lot of instances so far where it's has come into effect!
As far as DLC goes I would love to see some of the unanswered questions get answered, like who the benefactor is?
Also something to do with the Quarian Ark would be Brilliant, I think that one goes without saying. A series of missions about the Jaardan perhaps? It's likely that this stuff might be part of the concept for ME:A 2 though, it's a lot of new species to throw into the game.

Well, if they did such a wonderful job on the ME trilogy, i'm sure they can do it for Andromeda as well, if not better...specially now that players have posted comments and features they want to see. I'm pretty sure they are reading reviews and comments.
Regarding the Benefactor, i would probably let that come in the next game rather than in a short DLC.
All those unanswered questions and open end story facts should be included in the next game to fill it up with content, see the results. It would make it more interesting with series of events as a whole, rather than seeing each unsolved plot being delivered separately in a DLC.

But i'm not saying "No" to either option 🙂
The fact is DLC isn't always terrible, but they would have to spend more time on what they create. I felt there was a lot of influence from the Witcher 3 in this game, from the crafting system to a few of the open world aspects, heck I was surprised there wasn't a card game involved.
It may be possible that they are planning some larger scale expansion style DLC, that comes after the main storyline which could involve an entirely new planet. It's too early to speculate really but if they really have been looking at CD Project Red for inspiration then that's where they might take us.
It would also explain why they might have decided to abandon the season pass, if they are just planning on doing one big DLC expansion, then a pass is unnecessary.
The benefactor, Quarian ark and the Geth would be perfect for DLCs. It was the Geth that explored Andromeda through their FTL telescope so it stands to reason they will have sent an "Ark" of their own.
The Jardaan and a final battle with the Kett there is our ME:A 2.
