ME3 Ending Fix Coming in Free Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut

BioWare announces Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut, a free DLC pack for Mass Effect 3 they hope will address widespread unhappiness with the conclusion of the action/RPG sequel. Here's word on the free DLC, which does not yet carry a release date:
BioWare, a Label of Electronic Arts Inc. announced Mass Effect™ 3: Extended Cut, a downloadable content pack that will expand upon the events at the end of the critically acclaimed Action RPG. Through additional cinematic sequences and epilogue scenes, the Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut will give fans seeking further clarity to the ending of Mass Effect 3 deeper insights into how their personal journey concludes. Coming this summer, the Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut will be available for download on the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and PC for no extra charge*.

“We have reprioritized our post-launch development efforts to provide the fans who want more closure with even more context and clarity to the ending of the game, in a way that will feel more personalized for each player.” “We are all incredibly proud of Mass Effect 3 and the work done by Casey Hudson and team,” said Dr. Ray Muzyka, Co-Founder of BioWare and General Manager of EA’s BioWare Label. “Since launch, we have had time to listen to the feedback from our most passionate fans and we are responding. With the Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut we think we have struck a good balance in delivering the answers players are looking for while maintaining the team’s artistic vision for the end of this story arc in the Mass Effect universe.”

Casey Hudson, Executive Producer of the Mass Effect series added, “We have reprioritized our post-launch development efforts to provide the fans who want more closure with even more context and clarity to the ending of the game, in a way that will feel more personalized for each player.”

The problem is we are not shown these things. It is bad writing to expect your audience to find their answers in fanfiction.

I don't need the next century for every species spelled out, I need the obvious, blatant questions that are completely ignored to be answered, and I need an absence of plot holes. I would be perfectly happy with an ending styled after New Vegas. Was it just still pictures in a literal slide machine with one line of narration each about the places I had been and the people I had met? Yes. Was it cheap and simple in terms of production values? Yes. Was it immeasurably more satisfying, providing me with closure for everything I had done, than ME3's ending?

So I was wrong about a post-scarcity society, but do we know that the garden worlds were razed beyond recovery? If you're sure of what the answers to your blantant obvious questions are, why do you need the writers to specify every scenario for you? I always thought the fallout endings were cheap and jarring in their execution, and tacking on a similar slideshow to the end of ME3 would not be the ideal solution. Correct me if I'm wrong but, did we ever find out what happened to TNO's companions after the game ended? That was by the guys behind Obsidian, and IMO, a better ending than NV or ME3.

Also, I disagree with the fact that open ended endings is a sign of bad writing. A lot of literature and movies have endings that are open to interpretation. Blade Runner, Inception, just off of the top of my head (Not that ME3 is in the same league).
