Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have been a Myst fan since the start. I have played nearly every game (not uru...its not on mac) and I have even read all of the books.
One ofgreatest assests of these games has been the intigration of live action video. Real actors playing all the characters, creating intense emotion. This live action video was one of the things that made Myst so "real."
It is such a sad thing to see this new "3-D character". When the *people* we encounter are simply animated figures with poorly mapped-barely real- faces the "virtual reality" we step into is destroyed.
In every other Myst game I have played the characters have been central to the feeling of the game. You felt for the people, you saw the emotion on their faces, and it drew you in. Here, we have the animated body and head of an individual with an almost spooky mapped face of an actor. I hated this part of the game, and am so disappointed that it was allowed to happen.
Buy this game if you must know what happens, if you are a true fan. But be prepared to be be disappointed in the end. This game is not as immersive, the emotion is lacking...It feels rushed.
This final game should have been the greatest of all. It isn't, it feels as if it is almost a slight to us fans and it certainly won't draw in new ones. And that, is the greatest tragedy of (this game) of all.
