My two cents overall: if you enjoy escape rooms, puzzles, exploring and lore (which the Myst series has in abundance) the games are still great casually. The transition to the 360 degree renders was really cool, especially on the heels of Riven, and Brad Dourif does really good with the character Saavedro. Both games were made when no consumer graphics processor had a prayer of rendering worlds in real 3D and the level of detail that Cyan wanted.Įxile is arguably the easiest game in the series, but that makes it far more approachable, and for my money, it is one of the most enjoyable in the whole lineup. Riven still looks good, even today, and it far outstrips most other games from 1997 in terms of visuals. Myst LOOKS dated, but to do it justice you really need to compare it to other games from 1993, and then its achievement and status in video game history makes sense. The Book of Miriam is being moved off the back burner!Īgreed.Further ahead, Cyan has plans for a new MYST game!.Rand said it would maintain continuity with the URU universe. The story is supposed to take place in present day, as in now. Though it was somewhat jokingly, Rand said "Watch it on Netflix in a year!" I doubt that's the time span, since he asked if the fans would be willing to conduct a write-in campaign for the series, saying "that may be what it takes." If anything, he sounds committed. A full pilot for the MYST TV series has been written and edited extensively by Rand and Ryan Miller- they seem to intend to retain as much creative control as they can, which is a plus for all of us.After Firmament, Cyan will be returning to the MYST series to remake Myst and Riven (in Unreal Engine, most likely) so that they can have the "definitive edition." The new Riven's development will be done in partnership with the Starry Expanse team.There was a brief VR demo of Firmament, but as with many of their brainchilds, Cyan does not give out plot or gameplay details ahead of release.īut OTHER things were announced by Rand Miller (one of the original Myst creators and CEO of Cyan Worlds), and I will shamelessly borrow the writeup by /u/Herr_Red on the Myst subreddit: MIRC IRC client to be used with speedrunsliveĬolloquy Mac IRC client to be used with speedrunsliveĬommunity Speedrunning Websites Message the Moderators! r/SequenceBreak for glitching help and tutorials.
