He knew how to make good games back in the day, he doesn’t or simply doesn’t care.
Masters of Albion seems to be largely based on his previous games, Legacy, which was a crypto/NFT scam (selling virtual land based on speculative pitch that the tokens would make mad real world money).
I tried Legacy for an hour (just out of curiosity), it’s shit. Almost feels like a low effort game to justify the pump and dump in-game land sale.
