Saying they agreed with most of my points but I missed the point of instancing. Of course, just to boast my own ego, I’d like to mention that most of the feedback I got was actually positive.
He even called my blog “contemporary game review journalism” which is kind of embarrassing, primarily because it’s not…it’s a blog, it’s one asshole’s small-time blog.Īnyway, when people made me aware of the concept of instancing in Myst Online, politely, I retracted a lot of what I said while explaining that it doesn’t make sense in-universe…or in-cavern as they call it. I believe that is called a straw man fallacy. One of them posted a link on the official Myst Online forums, and you know I just realized, he said I called Myst Online a “flop”, in quotes, which I didn’t, you can check, and one of the commenters said I used the word “facts”, in quotes, which I didn’t, you can check, although the leader of the crusade did. So of course they told me why I was wrong, some a little more crusader-like than others. Of course the feedback was from those who were fans of Myst, including some who were major players in the Myst fan community. That post received a record amount of feedback, nearly 30 comments, which is incredible, considering I rarely get any comments that aren’t spam. The online version was a game I never got around to playing, but I wrote about how, as someone who only played the single player version, it didn’t surprise me it never took off and how it was a flawed idea from the beginning. An MMO centred around the Myst Universe, which failed and was released as a single player game called Uru: Ages Beyond Myst, before being resurrected as an online game by GameTap for about a year before dying again. Regular readers, of which there are probably one, will remember about a year ago, when I wrote about Myst Online: Uru Live.
