    The remaster of myst 1 is good, the remaster of riven is good.
    Must 3-5 felt… Thin. Like, the game was about it being 3d and the tech… Not the puzzles.

    I feel a true successor to the myst 1 & 2 games is Quern: Undying Thoughts.
    Felt like the original premise, but in a modern game engine.

    Another game that gave me the same hook as Myst is Blue Prince. A rogue lite puzzle game that is amazing.

      I hate the changes to Riven. They modified it to cater to VR and it really made me dislike it. I looked forward to the remake since the Starry Expanse project was started, that was like, 2009, and when I played it I felt so disappointed.

      Myst 3 and 4 are my favorites in the series, personally. Especially 3.

      Also, what is Myst 6…?

      Myst 3 was okay. Balls Age was easily the best. The other two were kinda jank. The ending was INCREDIBLE.

      Tap for spoiler

      Saavedro’s “NOOO NO NO NO NO NOOO” wails of despair are amazingly acted yet they make me crack up every time I watch them. I will never tire of watching him scream.

      Obduction was okay, great world but really a slog to play. I got up to the end and couldn’t be bothered to actually finish it.
