Yeah, BioWare actually wanted to delay the game even longer so they could really have it all done and ready. EA said "no, you've delayed it too long already. We want it finished and released by such and such date." And so they had to rush the rest of the game to completion. Overall the game feels less completed than that of ME1 and ME2. Drew Karpashyn even said that there were bigger (or more detailed) plans for the ending of ME3 and how they were going to bring it all full circle. ME1 and 2 both hint at and foreshadow a lot of Dark Energy subplots that were to accumulate into the main ending and explain the origins and reasonings of the Reapers. He continued on to say that there is a little bit of the original conceptualized endings in the current endings, but some of it was still left out or changed last minute. The Dark Energy plotline would've been better than what we got, but oh well. I'm not going to let a single game like ME3 ruin my liking for a great franchise/series. I didn't like Star Wars Episode III, but I still like Star Wars as a whole. So yeah.
