Good on them for listening to fans.

Listening to fans, yes, but making changes to the story because of the displeasure of some players is a nasty precedent. Should authors of books be forced to continue writing a series endlessly just because fans can't bear to let the characters go (as some suggested JK Rowling should do)? Should movies be re-shot because some vocal people didn't like the end product? Works of art shouldn't strive to make everyone happy with them and creators shouldn't be forced to rework their creations because some people don't like them. Don't like what they did? Great! Go create your own and show them you can do it better.

Err... fans *have* created alternate ME3 endings.

Should movies be re-shot because of shitty endings? Hell yes. It happens ALL THE TIME. It's called "test screenings". The original ending of Army of Darkness sucked donkey balls and the audience shit-canned it. So they went back and created the current ending.

Jesus. Go google "movies with alternate endings" and spend the afternoon reading how fans/test audiences ended up changing the end of a movie. You'll spend an afternoon reading about all of them.
