Is it impossible for you to understand that there are valid criticisms about Mass Effect 3 and its ending? It is not perfect.

You're way off. The reason we build the Crucible is to defeat the Reapers. That's what the series was about. I'm not saying the ending is only about the Catalyst's problem; his problem should have never been mentioned there. The last five minutes of a story is the absolute worst time to introduce new important elements to the story. I'm not all that worked up about Javik being on the the disc as much as the fact that almost all the build up to the central conflict in the climax was left out of the game and saved for the DLC.

Leviathan and From Ashes are good DLC's, and they do well to reinforce the themes in the ending. This is however, exactly what is wrong with the game. Those ideas needed to be in the main plot.

I'm not saying all the single-player DLC needed to be in-game, but they should have worked more with the "Organics vs. Synthetics" conflict in Mass Effect 3, and ideally, the entire trilogy. That's why the ending was so disapointing to thousands of people, not because they're all whiny, misinformed, liars, or whatever name you want to insult them all with. These are valid criticisms.
