Hi all, There's a lot of speculation going on at the Myst Revelation forum - Myst Revelation Forum Sorry, it's not hooked up to the Myst Revelation page (yet, we asked for a link to be put there), but there's a link on the Uru site to the Myst Revelation forum. Oh, here's a link to Myst Revelation, which you have already - Myst Revelation Teaser One of the press announcements said, in describing the story, that a little girl is missing, and suspicion falls on her brothers (something like that). I hope that means the little girl is Yeesha. I'd like learn the story after Myst (and Riven and Exile) and before Uru! I'd like to learn more about Yeesha, so we can perhaps understand why she is so, uh, "eccentric", in Uru. Incidentally, I do like her in Uru. As for the brothers being destroyed, Atrus never said he killed them. I'll have to go back and see what his exact words were, in Myst. As long as they aren't gone for good, I assume a fiction twist can bring them back - the books were not destroyed, extra linking books hanging around (for "emergencies"), that sort of thing. Wow. This is nifty.

At the end of RealMyst, the Red & Blue books were well done and crispy. Who's to say the Brothers didn't have another Sister Then again, is it written that the Brothers being discussed are Atrus and Catherine's Sons???

Nope, it's all speculation at this point, I think, Granny.
And that Ti'ana grave in RealMyst was the grave of Atrus's grandmother, who raised him in the cleft...

Hey Everybody! It's been a little while since I last posted. I got caught up  in a little thing called Uru to D'ni. All done with that now and eagerly awaiting both XP-2 and Myst IV. I hope they both live up to my expectations of them? Take care everyone, Be seeing you!

Too bad they didn't announce a patch for CSI 2 so that those of us with 98,98 SE and ME can play it rather than have it freeze in the very beginning of the game!!
If the world didn't suck would we all fall off Now playing Post Mortem, Midnight Nowhere and Still Life

Took a bit, but I did find and solve the puzzle in the Teaser; reminded me of solving a puzzle or two in Rhem. Believe it's called being dense.
From the clips, it does look to be a game worth looking into. Just hope it doesn't turn out to be another Uru.

Just went back again (can't keep away  ) to look and listen, and saw at the bottom of the screen "DVD Rom/Mac). So what's this puzzle  I have used the bulls-eye several times, and got changes, the screens, and about a third of the video, but haven't seen any photos. Share! Share!

granny, take another look. There are three structures you can freeze, one under each heading at the top of the viewing screen. Freeze them then run your cursor from the picture to the wording at the top, watching the symbols on the left as you do. Figuring out the puzzle allows you to see the bonus.

Have I missed something? I couldn't find the release date. With all the work at this site, it would seem like it's coming soon. Will check the release date list on home page now. Nope...couldn't find it. Was it mentioned in this thread and my brain cells missed it?

How did the sons of people like Atrus and Catherine wind up so rotten? They were occupied with relocating the D'ni and did not pay enough attention to their kids. P.S. Nice wallpaper!

Just because the Linking Books to the boys' prison Ages were toasted at the end of Myst does not that the boys were in any way harmed themselves. And given their grandfather's flair for re-invention of the Art, is there any reason to say that they could not have escaped from their prisons? Eventually. Richard Watson (a.k.a. RAWA) has stated in the past that the prison books, as used in Myst, were actually a kludge used to make the game work, and that there was no such thing as a prison book, per se. Only that should someone find themselves in an Age where there are no materials for making Linking Books, and not being in possession of a pre-existing Linking Book, they could easily be considered to be 'imprisoned'. Who knows... Atrus might have had a change of heart (we all know what a soft touch he is  ), and found a way to re-link to those Ages (afterall, he (probably) did Write them in the first place, and we know what a good Writer he is) by re-Writing the Ages' Linking Books from memory - just like someone making a copy of the Linking Book to any other Age, just without the original to hand.

 I've watched the trailer several times. It looks great. I'm still playing To D'ni. Uru Xpack 2 comes out in June. Then, Myst IV. I won't have to wait YEARS between Myst games. I could seriously get used to this.

I may have to re-play Myst just to get back in the groove.
Hope my copy (ages old) isn't too ugly for XP.
I just finished a re-play of Riven and played Exile for the first time last week. Sure brings back fond memories of Myst.
