Interesting. It can go either way, but that goes for anything in life, doesn't it?

This sounds promising, but I have real doubts about it ever happening. The "MYST Movie" has been discussed and re-discussed for years, but we've seen nothing. There has long been a rather vague series of allusions to a fourth MYST novel, but it has never appeared. This is in no way a denigration of the reporter or this site, but we MYST fans have been here before.

A Myst tv series would be so cool!

I'd rather have a new Myst type game (but unlike URU , have NO JUMPING!! NO TIMED PUZZLES (like the pressure plate area). Or is they're going to have those at least give the rest of us that have issues with our fingers/hands another way of getting to the same area!! (oh-for instance finding a hidden staircase??? or elevator?? even if it would be longer...and maybe an 'solve' you can use on the timed things...) Never did get to play all of Uru...that last area off/on plantet and water current I just could not do...so disappointing-especially after dealing with the frustration of trying to make all the jumps in the other areas...)
So would like to see a new game..did enjoy GREATLY the graphics and artwork and sound in URU--just Awesome!! and like that the coloring was fairly realistic. Have seen screen shots of supposed new game and think is awful. to ...well.....alien....and what is up with all purple??. Guess I'm an old fogey. I just really hate it that a creative group of people that made the Myst series so popular with so many story and artwork have not continued...

Hi gamenut. You referred to a "New Myst Game." When, what, etc.? Did I miss an announcement?

Maybe you should clarify that. Considering all the fun some people have had jumping all over the balconies in D'Ni, it would be a big mistake to hamstring them and deprive them of that fun.
"No required jumping" (like in Gahreesen) would be a better request.


Or even worse -- sitting around for 15 minutes waiting for something to happen. I don't know of anyone who enjoys that.

The ability to tweak to avoid motion sickness would also be important. The ability to slow down and smooth out motion, along with the ability to increase your apparent height off the ground would help a lot more than the pseudo-point-and-click alternative they had in Myst V (which was actually worse for motion sickness than the FPS-controlled option).

But I think every Myst fan in this forum would rather have another Myst game than a TV show. The frequency, length, stupidity, and loudness of commercial interruptions on TV exceeded my level of tolerance years ago. If they're not going to make another Myst game, I'd rather a book or a movie.

I'm with you gamenut and Jenny100. Another Myst game would be fantastic and if it could include the old Myst environments as well as new places to explore that would be even better. I can picture being on Myst Island with a bridge connecting to a new world to explore and continue the story!

I thought the screen shots of OBDUCTION in the latest interview with PC world look great, very myst like. I was so thrilled when the kick start target was met and am so looking forward to it's release, hopefully next fall.

I too have been jonesing for another MYST or good myst-like game. I have little faith in a TV series being any good. Sit there and passively watch some surgically enhanced actor do the puzzle solving? Ycch!

Well at least people will talking about it, maybe even enticed to play the game. The more fans the better.

Its real!!!
