@GerardKooij @GerardKooij Thanks again for this, it seems like this was the problem for me as well, I updated my Sophos setting and the game now launches and allows me to choose playing one of the 3 titles (something I didnt have before) I have started Mass Effect 1 without any issues so far and spent 5 minutes playing ME2 (which I hear is the one with the most issues) that also seemed to be running fine. Out of interest what issues were you getting for ME2 (in case I stumble on the same issues as I progress)

@ALTBOULI313 it was a blocking error when starting up ME2 "unable to load library dbdata.dll" . I had to disable sophos completely for it, repair the game in Origin and re-enable sophos again. Hope you have a lot of fun playing, I just finished  ME 1 and continued with a few of the first missions (there are plenty in ME2 ;-) ) So far I haven't encountered in play heavy bugs , so far so good ;-) have fun!

    @GerardKooij Cool, thanks, looks like I dont have the ME2 bug thankfully (spent 5 minutes just starting with a default character)

    I loved the original trilogy (had them on xbox 360, played ME1 about 10-15 times and ME2 multiple times + over 1000 hours on ME3) so you could say I'm already a fan of the series 😉
