These are solid ideas, but AOD honestly had far too many problems going for it. Obscura painting and Lara's shorts basically changed mid-cutscene, and so many plot elements were not well explained. I understood the main plot, after playing it a second time. I liked the Louvre, the Aicard cemetery and other tombs in the game, but the Parisian ghetto was a bit dragged.

Eckhardt vs Lux Veritatis story wasn't even really in the game. Some of the major plot elements were briefly mentioned in papers here and there. I would completely remove the cabal, and leave them for a sequel. Instead of Prague and the Strahov fortress I would pick the German Castle. Crazy Alchemist living inside an old castle makes more sense to me.

Paris ---> Germany ----> Cappadoccia

Looking back, the Prague and the fugitive Lara story line kind of needlessly convoluted the story. Werner cutscene could easily be merged with the Carvier dialog.
