Don't really agree with a lot of the cons mentioned in the thread. The errand-running is innate to adventure games, and you have a purpose for every one of them (even if it is farfetched - which game doesn't have these?).

I hope they bring back a sequel, they've made a fan out of me

Why change a winning team? Indiana Jones is practically the definition of "adventure" (except for that horrible Crystal Skull movie, damn you, Lucas!) and I applaud any game developer (or movie producer for that matter) that goes as close to Indiana Jones as is humanly possible without having George Lucas sue somebody.
