I'm curious what you think of Albion online? I tried it a few years back, but found it very difficult to get into.

It is very dificult to get into tbh (though this feature should make it easier).
All in all, it's a good game, though very specific amd very niche - all about PvP and player driven economy. I enjoy it, but never for too long. To really enjoy it it is good to have a group of friends or otherwise be part of a guild you jive with (something I never quite did). There is stuff you can do on your own, but the fun you can get out of it this way is limited.
I play it for a month or two once in a while and then fall off. Ultimately it's not a game for me, though I'd kinda like it to be.
i looked over Albion, and i didn't find the combat abilities deep enough to interest me. It looked like a moba's set of abilities. Also the roleplay to me was not that deep, and the perspective view was too close to top down.
Sounds like a glorified achievement system, but Albion really needs something a feature to guide new players after tutorial and give players not in a guild (or when guild is not active) something to aim for - and this seems to be it.
