Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The "Renegade" options are not nearly as mean as Shepard's, and it heavily impacts the replayability (that I honestly don't care about), it seems Ryder is good by nature with a few sarcastic traits, but that's it.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Planets are very varied and fun to explore, the game's illumination system is great and feels super nice to look at, textures are good stuff and animation-wise, it's well made (not touching facial animations yet).
52 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
- The voice acting for banter and the companions are sometimes pretty great.

Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
Furthermore, I can confirm that the game performs exceptionally well on the Steam Deck, consistently achieving 60 frames per second with ease.
