I'd be kinda pissed if simply having "good guy points" made the third game easier. Just because you went true-blue through all three games doesn't mean you made the right decisions.
There should be some ambiguity in the consequences. Maybe melting the rachni queen was the right decision. Maybe maintaing the genophage wasn't a bad idea. Maybe rewriting the heretics and reintegrating them into orthodox geth corrupted the orthodex geth. And so on.
But I really dislike the concept that a pure paragon route would make the game easier or that a pure renegade route would make it more difficult. There should be give and take on each side and no clear path.
Well, the Krogan obvious will support Sheperd against the Reapers whether he/she cured them or not. Obviously if they're cured there will be tons more Krogan on your side which will help tip the scales or prevent the losses of many more. Krogan can endure quite alot of pain and are quite powerful. If ME2 has told us anything it's that the Reapers do have other species enslaved to them to serve as Ground Forces which could prove devestateing with too few Krogan to fight them.
There's always the Krogan rebelling again after the Reapers are done but it wouldn't be too hard for the Salarians to make a new Genephage again after the Krogan have outlived their use as allies to become enemies. Though if you saved Wrex and help him unite the clans than the Krogan might not rebel at all anyways.
The Rachni have technology and knowledge that the other species don't have. Their ships are far more advanced than the Citadel races since they have remained undetected and easily evaded contact with the Citadel races by dissapearing before they could act. Sure there's a chance the Rachni might be a threat again but there's also a chance to be great and powerful allies.
Legion seems confident that rewriting will work. The Heretics concluded the same thing that's why they tried to rewrite the others as well. They're machines and lack independent thought. Rewriting instantly changes their view and since they lack free will they will not question their being rewritten since it had already happened. They could maybe malfunction later but who knows. Than there's the Quarian vs Geth war and the fact that you can push the Quarians to try and find a peaceful resolution with the Geth.
Having more allies is always a plus and lets face it. Paragon Sheperd has way more allies than a Renegade Sheperd(Who most likely doesn't even have the Council's trust either).
To me Renegade Sheperd seemed too conservative(Hated taking chances with Aliens) and pro-human(Not racist but wanting humans to become dominant no matter what). While Paragon Sheperd was more open to aliens and wasen't willing to lose his/her humanity to push humans to the top. Such as eradicating the Rachni(Even though humans have had no past history with the Rachni), keeping the Krogan neutered(neutering a whole species is wrong), or destroying the Geth if there's an option to convince(Well, rewrite since you can't convince machines) them that the Reapers are wrong and would cast them aside as well.
