How it's told is a huge part of the problem. Regardless of how one feels about the ending, it's core issues and criticisms remain the same. At it's core, the writing is flawed. For example, the other day, I read an article about some annoyances in Red Dead Redemption's plot. For the most part, I thought that game's story was flawless. Personally, I still love it, but I recognised that the points he brought up were pretty valid. One can say they like the ending, but there is no real solid argument as to why it's good. If you like the ending, that's good. You're lucky. One game I really love Heavy Rain. I enjoyed it thoroughly, and still do in retrospect. That game, whilst not entirely terrible, did have gaping plot holes and terrible acting in some places. That can't be defended. I enjoyed it, but on a literary level, I have to call it out and say "What the hell Cage?" Basically, what I'm saying is this: one can like something all they want, but what is, doesn't change.

Trying to say Mass Effect 3 had a good ending is like saying Citizen Kane was a bad movie that had little impact on the movie industry.
