PLOT | Next game, what will that be?
Just to see what you people are expecting in a next game, if one is ever done.
I think MEA is a sort of a stand alone project. Making grounds (probably making experiments as it goes) and room for ...

The Kett arc if there will be on will be more of a military mission than a discovery mission. The only way that Ryder, in my view, could be a logical continuation is if she/he stops being a Pathfinder, in which case it'd have to be a pretty clear reason after the heroics in the heleus cluster.
So not saying it's impossible but I just wonder how it makes sense to still be pathfinding in part 2 in the same Heleus cluster. Fighting over more planets in a different area with the Kett again as part of getting closer to the Kett Empire seems a bit thin as well and would have a rather been-there, done-that feel.
Given the amount of mentions of lost Angaran colonies and such in ME:A, I expect we'll be pathfinding around looking for them, as well as other planets with vaults, garden worlds like Aya (which was not on the habitable worlds list), Kett bases, etc., so I suspect there is still a lot of things to Pathfind out in the Scourge.
Plus Tann may just fire Ryder.
i think navigating through the scourge would offer enough dangerous exploration opportunities to fulfill a pathfinder's need for adventure. if not, you could always militarize some pathfinder teams, basically turning them into the military units that use the same name currently. iirc, pathfinders were used to covertly secure drop-zones for paratroopers, so they could land and assemble without being harassed by hostiles, something that was picked up during the second world war. i could see ryder's team being used in such a role in an all out war with the kett empire.
