It has the best gameplay in the trilogy, and the companion quests are excellent, but it completely shits on the lore established in ME1 and the change in direction of the story set up ME3 to fail. It’s a great game, but in the wrong place.
Eh, I’d say 3 has the best gameplay honestly (the multiplayer was really fun, me:a personally has the best systems of them all let down by giant open worlds and lacklustre story), 2 is by far my least favourite of the trilogy though so maybe id’s just my own biases. At the time, coming from one was really jarring.
The skill system and full scenario combat in Andromeda deserves so much more acknowledgment. There is a lot about that game that deserves harsh criticism, personally I blame EA and the rushed development hell they put the dev team through, but as far as combat, skill tree/class choice, and gameplay it is easily the best Mass Effect has on offer.
