Albion has a lot of good things going for it: For example, graphics looked awesome for the time, you can evade combat encounters, music is very good, controls are simple but work, gadgets improve navigation, resting system allows for magic use to not be tedious. On the flaws or shortcomings, it is very linear story wise, it has one good plot twist in the first part of story but the intensity of that reveal is never recovered in later parts. You can solve parts of the game the wrong way or the right way but this has very limited effect of the rest of the game. So many times story points are resolved and dont matter anymore. Leveling up doesnt allow for different paths limiting further replays. Now i have to admit i have beaten the game several times over the years but i come back to it because of nostalgia and i dont know if i hadnt played in my childhood if i would like it so much.
