Seriously I was surprised after gaining Krogan support, that I wasn't able to take part in a ground assault on Palaven to remove Reaper forces. It would of had way more impact if the player had this experience to be part of the fight instead of hearing about it on the news or email.

They are doing this to appease fans, but they obviously had planned to release an extended ending dlc in the future anyway, but are now making it a greater priorty to release something sooner. But in my opinion, they deserve all the criticism. The last mission is lacking regardless of the ending. All the resources you gathered are not used in any meaningful fashion. The scenario is they could of made an outstanding final act, but instead settled for a lesser option. I will not be satisfied alone with added movies, I want more gameplay.
