Let's Play Uru Live - part 1 - Together or alone

[Schmeman]

Does Uru Live still have a pretty good community? It would be nice if quite a few people played.

[goatmanvideo82197]

The d'ni time is a 30 hour day.

[compupranks]

I love Myst!!!

[colashanacogh]

i wish she would pick an accent, she's like a Braustrarican

[nleonard49]

@colashanacogh Are you talking about me? I'm an American who has lived for many years in Britain, so it is no wonder my accent sounds a bit mixed!

[ZZDaikun]

Okay, I just finished your LP of the original Uru. Does Live have a storyline that picks up where Complete Chronicles left off, or is it the same game with more puzzles?

[Dilandau3000]

@ZZDaikun It's the same game with some additional content. The LP is quite different though, if only because we're doing it with two people now. :-)

[WorldChallenge]

Does anyone even play this game anymore?

[kacplaymyst]

Congratulations Drs. Sven Groot and happy birthday and keep on gameing.

[fearsomedragon14]

wow, i practically skipped the entire starter cutscene with 1 click, right to where it exactly ended.

[xDanielx2016]

Wait a second...the journey aint over yet!? =O

[MrBurgerman87]

ohio

[VoyagesInEnglish]

are you going to do delin and tsogal?

[Dilandau3000]

@VoyagesInEnglish Yes, that's what all my comments about needing more people for some parts were about. :-)

[VoyagesInEnglish]

@Dilandau3000 oh well were here and its my favorite puzzle so thats why im asking

[pepetiebosch]

you are fantastic i love this game soooooo

[battlebotsboy]

You have an Uru Live account? Cool! So do I. :)

[fieryphoenix2501]

@Dilandu3000 So if i didn't watch your original Uru LP does that mean that the game you play wonm't make sense?

[Dilandau3000]

@fieryphoenix2501 We won't spend as much time explaining the backstory or some of the puzzles.

[whitehelm]

Are you planning on showing off the community-created content, like the marker missions that get distributed on the MOUL forums or OHBot?

[nleonard49]

@whitehelm We're probably going to do a few marker missions, just so we can show you the Great Zero. Not sure about OHBot...

[nleonard49]

@whitehelm Sorry, you meant the community-created marker missions. We've never done one of those, but maybe we could look into showing how you can make a marker mission. I'll talk to Sven about it.

[Keklawlawlawl]

reading that d'ni time , felt like my head was gonna explode >.<

[Mewzard]

It's awesome to see you finally doing Uru Live. I totally called this! Uru Live was the next logical step for your Myst journey, if you weren't going to do the games Shady did or Let's Read the Myst books.

Life's kept me out of the cavern for some time, but the needing a group to solve Age...I still need to do those too. If you don't mind, maybe I could do them along side you. Those, the ages in the library, and the last of the Path of the Shell equivalent stuff is what I have left.

[thetopcrusader2]

I might be interested in joining you in this endeavour for the future. :-) Keep me posted, Sven.

[pirbird14]

There are several places you'll need help. In 2 of them you only need one person, but for two others you'll need a gang. You can always get help by doing an /autoshout in the City , going to the Guild of Greeters Bevin, or showing up in the City at certain prearranged times. Go to the Guild of Greeters website and look for their calendar of Cavern events.

The Relto page will show up in your Bevin - eventually.

[nleonard49]

@pirbird14 We know you can get help that way, as we've done it before, when we first played the game. But we thought it would be nice to get people from Sven's YouTube subscribers together.

[carlushka]

I missed you! I am so thrilled about this! And I definitely want to get in on some group-puzzlin' in the cavern!

[carlushka]

I MISSED YOU! So thrilled about this next project!

[Geo55]

Cool! I've always wanted to play URU when it originally came out but didn't have the computer for it or money. Now that URU live is up I'm gonna play. As for that needing multiple people I'd be willing on weekends if i don't have anything going on (Homework for example). Looking forward to playing and watching your new videos =D

[familyphotoshoot]

Forgive my ignorance, but who is Nora? I've only seen your other Myst-related LPs, and she wasn't in any of them (as far as I remember).

[Dilandau3000]

@familyphotoshoot A friend of mine. No, she wasn't in any other videos. But she is in this one. :-)

[WriterOfMadness]

Uru live, cheers!

[QUANTUMJOKER]

I registered an account for Uru Live, but this was before I found out that Uru won't work on a Mac.

(sigh)

In any case, this looks as if it will be a fun series.

[Dilandau3000]

@QUANTUMJOKER You can make Uru Live work on Mac. In fact, Nora is playing on a Mac. Check the forums, there are instructions there somewhere.

[nleonard49]

@QUANTUMJOKER It does work on a Mac, I'm playing on a Mac! Go to the MOUL forums and go into the technical forum. There's a whole thread devoted to playing on a Mac. If you follow the instructions exactly you'll get it to work. And if you have trouble post your issues on the forum and you'll get someone offer you help.

Rand Miller plays on his Mac by booting in word. Hey, I see Sven beat me to this!

[nleonard49]

@nleonard49 I mean obviously that he boots in Windows.

[QUANTUMJOKER]

@nleonard49

Cool! I'm going to try that out on my Macbook soon!

And don't worry - I'm not going to gatecrash any of your Let's Plays.

:)

[nleonard49]

@QUANTUMJOKER There are a few places that are particularly glitchy for the Mac, part of Eder Kemo and the Great Zero, but you just have to grit your teeth and get through it. It IS possible, although there was one Relto page that I was never able to get because of the glitchiness. You'll see which one later on, because I gripe about it alot. ;-)

[SoraOwnsAll8745]

I was playing Uru Live forever, hoping for you to come on, but you never did. Ah well. I am a proud member of the Guild of Greeters :D

[robot797]

can i play with you somtimes?

[Dilandau3000]

@robot797 We will be needing more people for one particular part of the game, so not only can you join us, it'll be in the videos :)

I will be posting a video with the details once we decide on when and how we're going to do that (time zones make this difficult so we need to plan properly).

[cataphracts123]

@Dilandau3000 Awesome, I'd love to come play with you and the other fans as well. :)

[robot797]

@Dilandau3000 yay

i have already some parts done but i like to be a helper

[ValentinoChannel]

@Dilandau3000 New Eder ages, correct? I want to put my name in early.

[nleonard49]

@ValentinoChannel Eder Tsogal and Eder Delin. We might get snow in Eder Delin, depending on what stage of the cycle it is when we do the filming.

[ValentinoChannel]

@nleonard49 It's been such a long time since I played Myst Online!

I used to lead the "DRAEC." (D'ni Research of Ages and Exploration Committee) but I couldn't stay committed. You two seem like you would be just the type to would have liked the committee. I wish I would have kept up my Teledahn research, but community support was weak, and I couldn't. I'd love to join you in a Skype chat to share my IC knowledge and notes sometime.

[cataphracts123]

Fantastic, Sven. It's nice to get a look at the old Uru world again, especially with more than one person. I think these games are always better with multiple people to enjoy them with.
