Come on man settle down. Did you get a chance to play the extended ending? Because it really does a good job of tying up some of the blatant plot holes and loose ends that the original ending had.

Yes it does that. It doesn't change the fact that the endings themselves are a thematic failure.  It's a more detailed version of something a good deal of the fanbase didn't want.

There is no thematic failure here.

This youtube comment. Sums it up nicely.

Mass Effect 3; the game where your ending choices are
A) Genocide
B) Totalitarianism
C) Galaxy-wide eugenics
D) Trusting that unity, cooperation, and fighting spirit will be enough, you know, like the first two.

Cooperation is the only one that leads to extinction.
Nice thematic resonance, (not really)
