yes

The game is great obviously. It's the one that started the whole trilogy after all. However, the more the years pass the more it shows it's age.

First of all on modern systems, you might crash every half and hour or so because "vurtual memory has run out" or something. This is due to the fact that the game is an older 32bit programm. The most commonly suggested solutions do not work, at least for me.
So i am putting here the only one that it resolved the issue. The Large Address Aware application. I got it from here https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/large-address-aware.112556/

Secondly, around Noveria and latter on, in the game, if you are running an AMD system you will have problems with the character models appearing as black minecraft-like characters. There is one way to resolve that by messing with the lighting but it makes everything bright af.
Look for the SilentPatch for Mass Effect by Silent (yt channel CookiePLMonster), alternativelly. No downsides for me.

For me, those two were the only issues i had with running the game. Now on to the gameplay.

Everything PR related is great in my opinion, though a bit toned down compared to what i would like. Sometimes different dialogue options give the same result or even make Shepard say the same thing. The idea of the wheel though is great as a concept.

You play this game for the characters and story, let's be clear on that. That's what has the most meat. Your companions are mostly great (Garus and especially Wrex stand out). Their dialogue and personaloties will 100% hook you up to their stories. One thing i would like to see, is the two crewmates talking to each other more ofter. You come across some instances of that here and there and it's brilliant and immersive. But rare. Other than that no major complaints. And of course, as i said in the beggining, the main story is very interesting and wont have you bored.

The rest of the gameplay however, has issues. The AI is not that great and due to the maps, it is easy to funel enemies down to corridors. The map design is way to repetitive on non main mission worlds and the sidequests with some exeptions are all the same: go to one of two base layouts and shoot one of 3-4 enemies types. It's mostly a chore that you have to do if you want to get any serious equipemnt and money. The worlds you visit for those side quest are also uninspired and repetitive as they come (dont make me start with the Mako controls). Think starfield but worse. Of course the game came out in 2007 and they didnt have enough time before release. But still, the result is the result.

Two final things i want to mention as somewhat major issues for my enjoyment was the UI, especially the points, equipment and inventory interface. The later one especially will be the bane of your existance in order to go through items and distribute them properly. No filter, nothing.
At the same time you can choose where to spend your crew's points only when they acompany you. It is not that much of a problem because the rest of the time they aren't usefull, but still. It is annoying that i can see their skills only when they are with me and all of their equipment only in their lockers at the ship. Makes it more of a memory skill check to remember and combine their battle abilities.

All in all, I highly recommend you play the game, just know that it doesnt stand the test of time in some areas.

Love these games
