September 8, 200520 yr I read this too. But why? I thought the Myst franchise was doing well? Except, perhaps, for UrU Online.. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
September 8, 200520 yr Author I read this too. But why? I thought the Myst franchise was doing well? Except, perhaps, for UrU Online.. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Apparently Uru was a colossal failure for them when it didn't even leave the ground. Kinda hard to believe that it was that big a failure considering how well the other Myst games have sold. Wouldn't think that one bad game would take up 12 million units worth of money from the previous games.
September 8, 200520 yr Uru was a boondogle if I've ever seen one. They should have stuck with true adventure games. Of course, had it succeeded, it would have revolutionized the industry, I suppose. Is it better to have tried and failed, or to have never tried at all?

September 9, 200520 yr Uru was okay. A lot better than the on-rails walking of other Mys games. But I agree, it was a failure. RIP Cyan Worlds kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

September 9, 200520 yr I played two annoying demos. That control scheme was horrible. No to mention the puzzles having no logic in them. Also, the Myst fan community is a bunch elitist bastards. Purist rpgers pale in comparison. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.

September 9, 200520 yr Myst 1 was the ultimate in puzzle... only problem was that if you knew what to do you could beat the game in under 20 seconds. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Was not really expecting it, but it has been done. Deep from within... Victims live a life of fantasy. Some see salvation as an act of God, a few look within for it. 朱宣澧
