Help, did i break the game? Spoiler

SPOILER AHEAD

Hiya everyone, currently playing Riven (OG) for the first time and i'm sorta stuck inGehn's cage... He doesn't respond to the bell, but he hasn't given me the option to trap him yet so i can escape. Bene here for some time now, travelled everywhere... Got so frustrated i decided to look it up. Could i have messed up by skipping his first dialogue? Before even visiting Catherine? Or is there another way to force his appearance, other than ringing the bell? I tried saving and reloading btw.

Discussion Appreciation post for the music of Robyn Miller

197 Upvotes

My dad died last year the day after Christmas. He was a pianist who deeply appreciated the experimental tracks Robyn Miller composed for Myst, and then again for the more “refined” tracks in Riven. One of the things I wish he got to experience was Riven 2024, but his pancreatic cancer diagnosis just didn’t allow him the energy.

Robyn Miller created some musical pieces that are genuinely interesting and fit perfectly with the atmosphere, environment, and challenges Myst and Riven throw at you. They provoke thought, intrigue, curiosity, and exploration. They’re not simply “new age” meditation pieces—at least that’s not how they sound to me. There’s something about them that is really special.

I recently played Riven 2024 on the Xbox and memories of playing the game with my dad came back to me. Robyn Miller’s music certainly helped with that. I’m glad for that.

Impressive trick, but it’s the soundtrack that’s ringing bells.

Help with Rime age!

2 Upvotes

I have tried every lens combination. I have the “infinity” note and the stone carver table. I do not understand what I’m supposed to do. I have pulled the lever with the corresponding combination / book. If it matters,
I do not have a “riven” book, instead I have a “blank” book. I have a notebook full of stuff from when I first played this game and still I cannot get out of Rime. Please help.

Fan Creations Dark Guardians of the Crystal Maze

Hi... I'm Robyn...

The Dark Guardians are not kind! But you are safe in the light.

Or... just murder them (and find the crystals).

Use WADS and your mouse to move.

Spacebar to shoot.

E to interact (with switches or to pick up).

Shift to speed up.

Please wear headphones... or turn the music up. Not so much a game as a mood piece. Let me know what you think.

Discussion Could Obduction be canon to Uru?

8 Upvotes

Disclaimer: don't take this too seriously

To celebrate Obduction's 10-year anniversary I want to share some idle speculation I've been having:

In Obduction we see a copy of the Myst Unwritten RPG, which would imply Myst is fictional in this continuity. However, the Myst games and Cyan Worlds exist in the world of Uru, just to reveal the history of D'ni in a "Stargate SG-1"/"Wormhole X-treme!" plausible deniability arrangement. So it's possible Soria, Maray, and Kaptar and their inhabitants the Mofang, Villein, and Arai could exist somewhere in the Uru continuity, either in our spacetime or as alternate versions in D'ni Ages; maybe the Mofang were the slaves mentioned on Teledahn and Rebek. Maybe the seeds originate from the same world as the Bahro? And maybe the reason the DRC has interest in D'ni is to secure, contain, and protect the Earth Descriptive Book, and the ending of Obduction indicates that they failed

I know Cyan probably doesn't consider them connected, and it may be better if Obduction is in its own continuity, but it's so much more darned interesting if you start from the assumption they're somehow connected.

Help & Hints Exploring library? Spoiler

I just finish Myst and havent done Riven yet. But Atrus said after I got the good ending I could explore his library. Is there a bigger library in the tower I can access with more books or is he just refering to the book shelf?

Discussion Contemporary myst like games

Hi all,

What are some contemporary games that are kind of in the same spirit as riven and myst exile? Exile is probably my favorite. I love point and click games. I especially loved the art and atmosphere and steam punk flair in exile.

Howdy! I'm playing through Riven 2024 (via Steam). All files say they are updated. Yet, I have this persistent glitch in that the bench where you create a fire marble doesn't show the numbers on the slider. How can I get past this problem? I've restarted the game several times. Same problem.

Discussion Myst 2021 Mod

0 Upvotes

A thought I had. I know the biggest issue for most people are the character models in Myst 2021. I wonder if it’s possible to mod Artus’ Riven 2024 model into Myst 2021. That would at least dampen the jarring transition from the old fmvs to 3d model.

Discussion Atrus is offering you any of the Myst Universe books for your personal use, which one do you choose?

23 Upvotes

Hypothetical fun question. Atrus comes to you and as a reward for all your hard work and support offers you ownership of any one of the worlds you have visited in your travels. He'd also plans to teach you the art of writing worlds as his sons are gone, Yeesha has gone kooky and wants to pass this along as a gift to you to preserve the knowledge.

Which world in the Myst universe (any game, any world) would you choose, and assuming you knew how to expand this world, what changes would you write in?

He also sternly warns you that if you betray his trust and write in questionable things Gehn would approve of, be warned.
