Quick update with my first impressions:
-Combat is extremely dull. Auto target, auto attack based with a few spells, you could literally start a fight with a mob, look away, and still win the fight.
-Destiny board progression is really cool, provides a lot of ways to progress yourself
-Really cool sandbox features like guild territory claiming, land ownership, personal private islands, etc.
Overall opinion:
Albion Online is a niche title. If you're looking for an exciting story, challenging PVE, or fast paced pvp, it isn't for you.
But if you're looking for a sandbox MMO based on a meaningful world you can dominate, it's hella fun. The full loot PVP and crafting economy reminds me of playing Minecraft online.
If you like the idea of player crafting and world domination, I'd definitely try it out at the f2p launch. I'll make a guild that everyone can join.
