the fourth game is where things get a little weird. it's a decent enough game on its own although the 3D "i'm not stuck i'm just lost" effect is bigger, but there are some major retcons and they recast two major characters because the two dudes who made the first game basically played all the roles and they actually hated acting. the official story of Myst 4 is, i;m not kidding, that the myst 4 version of events is the "true" one, and the games Myst and Riven are not-entirely-true video game adaptations that the rand brothers made, based upon the writings of Atrus they discovered in D'ni.

oh yeah, this is also how they explain the cleft in uru being in the american southwest when in the books it was in the middle east. the books, which actually exist in reality, were incorrect due to original games' creators misinterpreting something, and uru, the computer game, was in fact reality

Theory: If Red Dead Online had never been announced or released, everyone on the forums and everyone else who’s soured on Red Dead Redempyion 2 would still be into it instead of experiencing of sense of malaise whenever thinking about it

Nah, I don't really care about the online mission structure or w/e, as long as I could mount up with my friends and do stupid stuff like flying down a mountain shooting our horses dead, etc. like in the first game. The problem is none of us bothered to finish the game in the first place and lost interest before it even came out.

i remembered another myst story, this is my last one probably:

my brother and i got so into it, we decided to make our own Myst for the youngest brother by hiding a bunch of coded notes and stuff around the house, like he had to hold one up to a mirror, and i recorded a bunch of .wav files in Microsofot Sound Recorder in my best imitation of the two brothers, so when he brought pages back, he could hear the next one. one of the "puzzles" was us using Sound Recorder's "make the audio backwards," and the clues were supposed to lead him to figuring out how to reverse it. it was before riven came out, so he must have been about six or seven.

he was having fun for awhile, exploring his room, finding stuff in his toys, and he even figured out the SR reverse thing, but when you reverse the audio in SR and save the file, it fucks up the sound too, so when he reversed it, it just sounded like me doing a deep voice, hissing and and echoing and laughing. he got really scared and cried and my mom was finally like "that's enough myst for awhile, boys."

Wikipedia posted:

Pitchford is also a magician and descendant of Richard Valentine "Cardini" Pitchford – a respected and well-known legend of stage manipulation magic. In 2014, Pitchford was presented with an Award of Merit[7] by the Academy of Magical Arts for his dedication of a museum exhibit displaying his collection of Cardini costumes and props in the Inner Circle of The Magic Castle in Hollywood, California.

Pitchford's magic-related business, Pitchford Entertainment, Media and Magic, LLC, acquired Genii Magazine in 2015. [8] Genii Magazine is the largest selling and longest running magazine for magicians and celebrated its 80th year in circulation in 2017.

I picked up a boxed CD ROM copy from the Goodwill a few months back. It has all the packins plus the old school strategy guide.

I don't actually own a thing that can play it. Like I don't have a working CD drive
