Not really.

Absolutely generic gameplay and setting.

Really atrocious storyline.

Terrible at atmosphere and game design. It does not understand structure or pacing or horror at all. Just throwing monsters going "LBAHGHGHSHGHAJKFg!" at you in dull gray corridors over and over for several hours

It has a couple of cute touches likes making limb shots important and headshots worthless, invalidating decades of shooter assumptions.

But it's a pretty weak series. There's a reason why it ultimately failed. It's possibly the only franchise in history where the best entry into the series was a cash in on rails shooter.

Compared to horror games like Silent Hill or Resident Evil or Pathologic it's poor

And compared to sci-fi games like Mass Effect or Alien Isolation it's poor.

System Shock 2 was superior decades before.
