Chobot doesn't wreck the game nor does she add to it, other than to fuel eulogies to the old principle of conflict of interest.
It could have been worse. Anyone who plays EA sports titles knows how willing they are to jam in real life advertising in the middle of games. At least ME3 didn't have product placement everywhere.
"This war asset brought to you by...x...." It's only a matter of time.

This is the core fanbase. A lot of people here just hate IGN from the get go even before Chobot was in this game.
I think sometimes hanging around forums can warp people a bit.

Well, I see Chobot as product placement. So, there you go.

Well then leave the dark pits of this foul place and check the rest of the internet for Allers-fans, somehow I just guess you won't find that many of them, no matter where you look...

To be honest, at first I didn't give a **** if she's in the game or not, I had no idea who she was. Later however, I think she is kind of distracting since she's actually a quasi-famous IGN reporter. It detracts from the immersion. Emily Wong would have been a much better choice.
If the game and especially the ending would have been any good, no-one would care about Chobot, she's such a non-character. But since the fans are in rage-mode (myself included) every little negative is a valid target.
But you don't find Martin Sheen walking around as a guy who looks like Martin Sheen a distraction from immersion?
This is the bit that confuses me.

Maybe it's because I don't go on IGN but I never understood why she is SO hated.
yeah her voice acting sucks but she's such a minor character who if you like you can refuse to let onto your ship. People act like it's the 2nd worst thing in the game.

It's a conflict of interest issue. If Chobot were in radio or TV journalism what she did would be illegal. It shows poor ethics on the part of Bioware and IGN.

Don't be confused. Sheen is a very, very good actor. I have no problems with them using him. If you want to go down that route you might as well start complaining about EDI (BSG) or anyone you would recognize from other productions.
Chobot however is not an actress, she's a reporter from a site that reviews ME3. The combo of blatant T&A + IGN connection just doesn't sit well with me. Like I said a very minor issue, but still a negative one.
