Pretty random thread for a pretty random stroke of nostalgia I had earlier for a game I played many many many years ago (1996 to be exact) - Albion . Developed and published by BlueByte.
I had a look on Youtube and some crazy guy has done a series of videos where he plays through the game (and does voices).
Anyone else ever play this? I loved it.
I think I shall dig out the CD or see if it's for sale online anywhere.

From Wikipedia:
In the year 2230, the gigantic, interstellar space ship Toronto emerges from hyperspace at the edge of a distant planetary system. The ship's owners, the multinational DDT corporation, believe that there are rich deposits of raw materials on one of the planets in the system, and the Toronto is to mine the whole planet's resources at once. The player is cast in the role of Tom Driscoll, the pilot of the reconnaissance shuttle sent to verify the status of the planet. When his shuttle malfunctions, forcing him to make a crash landing, Tom discovers that the data that described the planet as a desert world was false. Albion is a world teeming with life, secrets, surprises, and magic. It is up to him to alert the crew of the Toronto to the true situation in order to save Albion and its inhabitants.
