I didn't like this game at all. Myst and Riven were phenomenal, Exile was alright, and I didn't really like Myst IV. I feel that this game kind of soiled the series by making the actors with 3D characters created using a computer. It takes away from the mysterious feeling and the reality of the game.
the 3d is amazing for the time but compared to prerenders they're just weak. like comparing maglev trains to electric rail or video to film theoretically these systems can surpass their predecessors but they aren't even close yet. I don't think the game lost it's magic I just figure the pre renders were better for the kind of art the games depend on to be compelling. Myst one was about like this even in prerender.
@aldebaran899 To understand the story and get the whole experience, I recomend you to watch LPs of both Myst and Riven since those are hard to play on newer computers. Then play Myst 3:Exile and Myst 4: Revelation for yourself.
It may seem like a hassle, but you will be able to understand the fifth game much better.
@Wolfantom i totaly agree with you. Riven was probably one of the greatest games ever made. Superb graphics, epic storyline, great acting. the game had everything.
The 3D kills it. As I'm trying to get ANY myst game working at the moment (new first-time player) I saw some YT clip of Myst IV - the live action really sucks me in (even at times when the acting is bad).
Also keep in mind that Myst IV occurs roughly 200 years before Myst V (which is set around the time the game was released- 2005). Even though the D'ni have longer lifespans than normal humans, they will still visibly age over the centuries.
Yeah. They could have made great games while sticking to the rules set down by the first two games. But no, now they are actually considering the first two games as non-canon. Blasphemy, imo.
@nodysseus Though Yeesha was always said to have a special connection to the bahro and The Art. In Uru it is explained that she could write things that none of them could even dream of, and there she was a late teenager. She looks alot older here, so maybe her powers have increased.
That is actually the point here. The Bahro are able to link at will without books (whether its an inherent ability or not is left ambiguous) and Escher gained that ability because he is wearing a piece of skin that he ripped off of one (notice he touches the same spot on his shoulder every time he links).

This game looks like trash. you just glide over to spots instead of actually walking. No real actors means fail. The first time i saw the woman in this video, i almost raged. This is horrible.
myst 5 lost mch potential because of that fact that they didnt involved acters that was the badest they could do. Ok Myst uru did a better job even if its not got real acters there was a better story.
I would love to extract this videos in spanish from Spain but there is no videos of this game in spanish :-s.

@BojikArc It's a tattoo. Although it could be covering up a scar, who knows. Yeesha's entire mid-life is a mystery.
