Sure it looks pretty but egad is it dull
it and riven have probably the deepest gameplay ever created desu. and the graphics are as kino as they come.
>deepest gameplay ever
>static puzzle game you can solve with a guide
No
It takes longer figuring out where the puzzle itself is and walking to it than solving the puzzle.
>deepest gameplay ever created desu
I don't know what metric you're using here, but I'd argue The Witness exceeded both in every aspect except lore/atmosphere
OP, It's a really old adventure/puzzle game series. Only the first 2 are any good (3 is ok). Puzzles are pretty obtuse, you need to imagine being there and try to intuit what you'd do. Careful observation (including listening) are key. You probably won't know what the fuck to even do when you start the game, so it could be said that discovering the objective itself is part of the game. No tutorials, no handholding.
>100 disks on psx
This is true
More like redpage
>my hands hurt more from switching disks than playing the game
How many did it have?
Weird because the PC version was only a single disc
It fucking sucks
play PYST instead, it has John Goodman
Weird. My 13 year old beat Myst yesterday. She beat the entire game in just one day after introducing it to her. I was surprised, I mean...it took ME multiple days but, hey. realMYST Masterpiece Edition is what we have. The Switch version is fucking choppy during certain sections of the game but otherwise, it's an amazing experience. Bring a notebook and pencil, get comfy, and enjoy it.
play it in VR or kill yourself
My bad I was thinking of riven
>5 disks
Baldur's gate two had that many, and it was a better game.
Myst is good and Riven is boring.
Yeah
It's peak 90's. The music, art and overall picture quality are just incredibly nostalgic. Riven is the best game from this genre imo but you definitely should play Myst first.
Myst is fun the first play through or two. Then it's just boring once you know everything
lmao
boring
Looks like there is a penis on your game box
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to really enjoy the Myst series.

>Most of the music in this game is comprised of multiple source audio files playing at once, to give it a self-composing feel.
>The number of puzzles solved in the current age determines which set of music files plays. If none or all four of the puzzles are solved, then the files are drawn from the resource folder LI_T, EN_T, or MA_T, where LI stands for Edanna (life), EN stands for Voltaic (energy), and MA stands for Amateria (matter).
>Otherwise, the music is drawn from the folder LI_M, EN_M, or MA_M. Each file within these folders has a 1, 2, or 3 in the filename to specify exactly how many puzzles must be solved in that age for that file to play.
>Here's how the music is "composed". Usually, a file denoted as the "pad" loops indefinitely (though in some cases two different pad files are used). On top of that plays a sequence of "mldy" files, usually timed to harmonize with the pad (sometimes another label such as "pipe" is used). Various effects such as "stinger", "bells", "drum", and "squeal" chime in randomly throughout. Some examples of filenames are LI_THEME_pad2.wav, EN_M3_noise4.wav, and MA_M2_mldy5.mp3.
>Many of the tracks in the Official Soundtrack are special arrangements and embellishments of the compositions within in game, particularly those found in the M folders. Therefore, these tracks are not actually present within the game, at least not in their exact form.
I would actually commit genocide to get full remakes of the first four games.
I'd rather play quest for glory or escape from monkey island.
It's kino 90's CGI meets a typically obtuse point-and-click adventure.
I remember it very fondly even though it was never great to play. but it was cool trying to look up walkthroughs in an era where user posts were unverifiable and often just making shit up for kicks
Akklaim eas picked apart by vultures for good reasons. It'll never happen.
Sega sages
Now that shit is owned by ign.
>escape from monkey island
Worst game in the series?
All of them. They're gay.
What is Akklaim? You mean Acclaim the game studio? How are they related to myst?
>Myst
>Zork
>Quest for glory
>All the old Infocom Games
Fuck I miss all that shit. The little manuals you needed to get through the game, the feelies that every game came with, the oversized boxes...There was so much inventiveness in how they packaged and sold a game. And this was standard too, none of this "special edition only" crap we get nowadays.
Yeah, and you said the first four, and not only did acclaim make risen, but ubisoft fucked the rest up
I think you're retard mentally or autistic.
>but it was cool trying to look up walkthroughs in an era where user posts were unverifiable and often just making shit up for kicks
>he didn't have the walkthrough manual for Zork, Enchanter, and Spellbreaker that deliberately gave you bullshit hints just to punish you for blindly reading the walkthrough and not playing the game yourself
What owl?
>I would actually commit genocide to get full remakes of the first four games.
You couldn't pay me to play Revelation again
Myst has already been remade many times, it's not getting any better, just a fresh coat of paint on an aging game. AFAIK Starry Expanse is still progressing, so we should get that Riven remake one day. As for Exile, I could take it or leave it. I think Amateria was the only good level, though I did like the main story and the ending decisions
What is risen? You mean Riven? They didn't make Riven, Cyan did. Acclaim only published the Playstation version of the game. Ubisoft only published Exile, it was made by Presto, who made the journeyman project games. The only game that UbiSoft really fucked up was 4, since they actually developed it. However, I think 4 has some redeeming qualities.
>riven
>fourth game in unplayable as there's a load between each movement you make as a player, which is not reduced by better PCs
sucks, I enjoyed the first 3 games but that buffering is awful
I assume this is the same person. You can't speak english, please stop posting and read more before you post again thanks.
I still think you're gay for liking anything past riven.
Well you're wrong, Exile is a great game.
I think you're triggered because, I made fun of your favorite dog shit franchise.
