Steam launches the EA App with launches the game.

I cannot find a demo to test.

Same behaviour with Staging 10.7.

The Origin version on the AppDB suggests using dxvk. I tried dvk2030 and
dxvk2053 and both make the EA App show a number of error dialogs before giving
up. The AppDB entries use 0.x series dxvk so I tried dxvk1000 but Steam won't
even start.

I don't know anything about Mass Effect, but on a chance it's Unreal Engine or
something alike, see if changing wine's renderer from 'gl' to 'vulkan' helps.

It's rarely the case, but you may get lucky.

Sadly that didn't help, but showed us Bug 58283.

Exiting and restarting the game, as well as going between the main and
multiplayer menus SOMETIMES causes the graphics to draw correctly. I can't find
a specific trigger. The same is true whether using full screen or windows mode
(ALT+RETURN).

Tried turning HDR on/off but it makes no difference.
