Masters of Albion is a 'Best of Peter Molyneux' greatest hits collection in one game, but I fear it might not measure up to the games that inspired it

It's extremely unlikely to be good. At the absolute best it may mediocre.

The reason I say this is that Masters of Albion is based on the engine from the NFT scamming scheme.

I tried that game for an hour on the "free (no crypto)" servers and it was stinking pile of dog shit. I can't really say the engine had anything impressive going for it. I am assuming the only reason they went with a custom engine was because they needed deep NFT/crypto integration.

I don't believe Molyneux is really interested in games, he just wants to be part of the next big thing.
