My only issue with the last part of the main quest is the fact that they have the three "heroes" help you in the final battle (and Tsun, who also jumps into the fight). I already learned Dragonrend from them, they already had their shot at Alduin on their own time, they had already served their purpose story wise (Tsun as well, whose role is to test me) as such they were an unnecessary addition to the final battle. Having four overpowered and unkillable NPCs aid you made the fight with Alduin too easy and took away the spotlight from the Dragonborn.
The Dragonborn, whose very destiny is to fight and defeat Alduin and the only one who can defeat him, never gets a chance to fight him by himself and defeat him. First time you fight him, Paarthurnax is there to help, then the next time you fight him you get the 4 NPCs above mentioned to help you. At least in Sovngarde I should have been able to fight him on my own after all the trouble I went through to travel there.
