Game with message greater than us ?
Team Thalion, that was quite active in Amiga gamemaking business (Ambermoon, Amberstar) started their new project, but joined BlueByte -> Ubisoft. We know it all, all about small studios getting "owned" by big companies. This time it had no impact on the true story and message guys from Thalion wanted to share with the world, with us. Their previous projects were already full of fantasy + sci-fi, interweaved with stories about end-of-the-world, catastrophe that changes daily live, heroes (of course), family ties, responsibility, and not very mainstream reference to alien life, travel trough the universe and visiting distant stars. Very much "from where we hail, where we are going", just adding "be a part of the change by making difficult choices". And of course, learning something of the world, no one knew. So we have now Albion, much more "grown-up", mastered from video/audio/story perspectives. Much more straight forward, no more hiding behind metaphors, and calling out real history/present dogmas as they are. Also there is a twist in the details, that the game starts as "sci-fi" and reveals fantasy/history, what is compared to previous projects new. But the best is how the game reveals a story so deep, that it literally touches you souls in its true base. Gameplay: well, visuals are great for the time the game was released, nowadays we have to be very understanding to see the beauty in it, which is there and is huge. Same goes for music and audio. So we have a game that reaches out to our inner art-loving beings and captures them. At the same time the game can leave us off-guard by throwing us in somehow open world, where we can get lost, bombards us with text we have to "decipher" to learn how relevant it is to the story / game or if it is just add-on-value. And just when the game seems to be just a normal adventure, we have to fight our first RPG fight. Here is one of the few negatives, the game is somehow "slow" on combat and also requires a lot clicks.
