Shepard wins the war, the Alliance comes along for the ride. On the
ther hand, Cerberus is successful in their main goal, finding a way to
control the Reapers, but we can't use their research data, because.....
Eh? Creating and locally controlling Husks is a far cry from taking over every single Reaper. Henry Lawson says as much himself. If they can't even control Geth, how could they have any chance with the much, much more advanced Reapers?
It's funny you call the Alliance ineffectual, when Cerberus is shown to play with syringes for no good results from game 1. Go on, look at their track record, find me one project that wasn't the Lazarus or the Normandy SR-2 (pretty much the only ones that don't involve horrible experiments) that actually was a success and genuinly advanced humanity in any sort of significant way or actually helped defeat the Reapers. I'll wait.
Meanwhile, the Alliance pours its significant resources into fighting the Reaper threat (such as co-developping the Thanix cannon), is the biggest source of EMS by far, and pretty much unconditionally supports Shepard once the forced stupidity of ME2 goes away. We see Alliance marines getting stuff done, meanwhile Cerberus is content to use Tresher Maws to murder soldiers, put autistic people in horrible tubes and try to blow up Tuchanka for the sheer lulz of it.
As for old Oleg, he gets to surrender once defeated, which is more than what most villains get in this series. Getting to rub it in Aria's face after ''supporting'' her is kinda nice. DLC is still very much overpriced but at least he wasn't the cackling megalomaniac I feared he would be. Also he didn't have a cheesy faux-russian accent which alone is worth kudos.
