Absolutely. Here is the bottom line: Playing Resident Evil 5 without the 1.03 update on a modded PS4 is akin to playing half a game. The original release is missing the definitive Mercenaries mode, suffers from occasional stutter, and lacks the QoL improvements that made the PS4 version the definitive way to play RE5 (until the PS5/Series X re-release, ironically based on this same patch).
