That's sounds like a good planDavid O wrote:Say, what are your opinions on Uru? It didn't sound too great comparitively. The new gaming engine sounds too different for me. I will probably only buy it if the price becomes extravagantly low.
Basically the Myst series is awesome for two reasons:
1. Awesome grapics of breathtaking scenery
2. Extremely captivating storyplot invloving Atrus and his complicated family.
Uru is Myst without element #2
Oh sure it has some plot but nothing really good and most of what is there is confusing. What it does have is some really awesome worlds to explore. The only reason I would suggest getting Uru is so that you can look at some of these really jawdropping places. Just wait for the price to come down, get a walkthrough and take a sweet tour of the amazing places.
btw, the Myst Books (which I highly recommend) is Myst without element #1
Rand Miller wrote three novels between the releases of Myst and Riven and they are some of the best fiction I have read in a long time. Of course, there's no graphics but the storyline becomes a heck of a lot clearer and it's extremely interesting.
