Yes, it was an unsatisfying conclusion; the supernova kiss cutscene was very (nay, extremely) touching, to me, but it left me wanting more. When it turned out that was the last time I'd hear Liara (or anyone) speak, I was... wounded. I'm glad Liara has a chance to reach 1,000 (I left her behind in the charge), but really, I don't imagine she (or any LI) would just sit on the sidelines at the end of all things while Shepard rushed to his likely death.

Also, I didn't realize until two days after I beat the game that I told Chakwas to save the bottle...

As I said, my beef is with those rushed, ending cutscenes, not dying to save the galaxy. Although the fact that all the cutscenes were identical with different color waves of doom and there wasn't even a possible "happy" outcome goes to show how rushed the ending was. If I was a VG developer, I'd only do an ending like that if I was going to fix it with a DLC. Then as a token of good faith, release it for free.

For the record, if there is going to be an alternate ending, I would suggest allowing LI's to be there too, regardless of the outcome, good, bad or otherwise. It only makes more sense!
