I've never played the Myst series. Part of the reason is that I usually don't like that style of game - i.e. tons of exploring, lever puzzles, and note writing. But then I really liked Zork Nemesis. I really don't like "screenshot" movement, however. Never could handle it unless there was some panning. So if I started with Myst III or IV, how confusing would the storyline be for me?

Status : Online | Myst III and Myst IV, Myst IV in particular, are good games to play without knowing the whole story. Myst IV does it extra well - you learn all you need to know about Atrus and his dysfunctional family.
I don't think one should play any game one doesn't want to play - but if you want to play a Myst series game - and haven't - I'd start with Myst IV - my opinion.

I'd say play Myst 5. No one should have unplayed Myst games sitting around. (OK, I have URU waiting to be played, but that's not real Myst. "RealMyst", get it? )
Don't mind me, it's getting late here. [smiley=boggled.gif]

How many cats do I have that are voting in this poll?
I have two cats in RL, and I selected that option so I could see the votes, that leaves one more cat. Could it be the stray that comes around and eats all the cat food in the garage? Do they have internet cafes for cats? :
So it seems most people think I'm a Myst fangirl.
