How much will prior decisions really matter?

We already know from the demo that Anderson has quit his council position that we appointed him (if we chose to do so). So that's one choice that seemed extremely important at the time that has effectively been made pointless because of some novel. Or what about the Krogan? You have the option in ME2 to talk Mordin into possibly curing the them one day. I'm not sure what's going on during the second half of the demo, but if seems like it may play out like it will regardless of Mordin's side mission in ME2.
Or the Rachni? I hope he was wrong, but they show up regardless of your deceision to kill the queen or not according to another poster. And I have a feeling that other decisions like destroying the Heretics (or brainwashing them) will be of little impact on ME3, or whether you tried to talk the Quarians out of war with the Geth, etc.
I'm not looking for major spoilers. I guess I just want somebody to alleviate my fears. I had originally thought (hoped) that you could lose to the Reapers in ME3 depending on your poor decisions in the prior games. What I don't want are a few throw-away lines to differenciate your choices.

Old profile no longer active because I changed ISPs. Thank you EA for making it so difficult to change an e-mail address and password. I went through this with XBox Live recently too, and it turned out to be browser compatibility.

I was disappointed to see a lot of these things as well. I really thought those kinds of choice would have a larger impact - like saving the Council in ME1 fostering new feelings of cooperation, or allowing the return of the Rachni in order to have more allies in the end. But it seems like those were fairly arbitrary beyond a few extra dialogue options.

Well, I think that these decisions will have impact on the story.

ME 2 decisions will matter about as much as the ME 1 decisions mattered in ME 2.
