Myst Online Trailer

Posted by michael on from the missed dept.

Allaran writes "The latest installment in the Myst story, an online experience entitled URU: Ages of Myst, is ramping up to its release. This has been up and coming for some time, but a trailer (Warning:20MB) [BitTorrent link via GameTab] has just been released, made entirely from within the game engine. Apparently, there is a significant offline game that can be played, with the option to subscribe as well."

    I found out a long time ago that I could achieve the same effect as playing Myst in real life by looking at a bunch of photos and making atmospheric noises.

  5. Online Myst? by DrCode · · Score: 4, Funny

    I'm trying to imagine what this might be like:

    I pull a couple levers in one room, then walk around to another room to see what happened. Meanwhile, someone else sets the levers back. Then we get into a duel where the weapons are books, each of us trying to snap ours shut on the other person.

    "Let's screw the platform that made the Myst franchise what it is today!"

    If only Hypercard were still around today, they wouldn't be so bold....
