Albion Prelude was generally well received, with a score of 75 out of 100 on Metacritic.[3]

gollark: I think you could probably make it work okay either by, as they suggested, segmenting anime-looking stuff, or creating synthetic screen-y images which either contain anime things somewhere or don't.
gollark: The issue isn't competing standards, really.
gollark: All we can do is watch as our ridiculously fast computers and networks grow ever slower with stacked layers of ridiculous hacks, as dependencies accrete and bizarre increasingly convoluted security problems come with them.
gollark: It could have been controlled, once. But now it's impossible to replace the decades upon decades of legacy design decisions.
gollark: Also networking.
