That's the safe way of going, yeah. Having a plot-twist at the very end of the game is very risky. If you promise an ending, and then the final mission ends in exactly that, there's really no reason to be pissed off. If you get something completely different, though, people might feel robbed.
One of the really brilliant things with Bioware is that they very rarely play the game safely. They mess around and try new things. That's part of what made Mass Effect so brilliant, really. It would have been a shame if they started with the ending sequence of their most popular series.
