Uru - Ages Beyond Myst Analyzed

Posted by simoniker on Saturday May 24, 2003 @08:12PM from the you-are-you-are-you? dept.

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to a CNN article discussing the comeback of Myst, in the form of Uru:Ages Beyond Myst. This real-time 3D adventure has been worked on for over 5 years at developer Cyan Worlds, and contrary to earlier impressions, evidently isn't an MMORPG in the conventional sense - the article says that "When it hits stores this fall, Uru will include a single-player mode that won't require an Internet connection. For a yet-to-be-determined monthly fee, players will be able to join others in the online version."

That is exactly the point, it isn't another EQ clone but something new.

What is left? Beautiful words, intricate episodic storyline, new things every day, lots of friends to meet/chat with/explore with, mysteries and puzzles to solve. Sounds like fun to me :)
