- NOTE: This video was recorded on a version of the game that is bugged, and does not play the music correctly. I was not aware of this when recording the video because this is the version I've always played on, and I just assumed this was how the game was meant to play. I will record a version with the music fixed when I have the chance.

Myst III: Exile is the third game in the Myst series, and the first game in the series not developed by the series' creator Cyan Worlds. Instead, it was developed by Presto Studios, whose adventure game pedigree comes from their experience developing The Journeyman Project and its sequels. Unlike Riven, which told much about the backstory of the characters and introduced players to many aspects of D'ni culture, Exile essentially tells a side story, and takes place shortly after the third Myst novel, The Book of D'ni.
While Exile is a very well-made game overall, it isn't nearly as groundbreaking as its predecessors in either its story or its gameplay mechanics. The story is completely inconsequential, ending exactly as it begins with no progress being made to the greater arc of the D'ni. The main improvement, aside from having slightly improved graphics compared to Riven, is the implementation of a panoramic viewing engine. While this does produce a very immersive effect, it comes at a small cost to the gameplay. With still images, it's much easier to frame scenes in a way that allows the designers to direct attention to important parts of the scene. With a panoramic view, it's much easier to accidentally miss key items or switches since the player needs to check all 360 degrees of their view.
One interesting aspect of the game is that Saavedro is played by actor Brad Dourif, who is known for his work in movies such as Child's Play, Mississippi Burning, and the latter two films in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. According to an interview with GameSpy, he agreed to play the role in part due to being a Myst fan. - เกม
Without the music the whole game is less than half as worth !! All emotions, feelings are composed within the soundtrack - and they should also given enough (!) time to reveal their magic (Amateria's Theme, Edanna's Theme). Taking time for slow exploration, combined with environment noises and ambient music results a certain mood of unique enchantment: this is one of the main reasons of success these products have had in the past.
Sorry, I'm as frustrated with the lack of music as you. I always played this game on the old 10th anniversary DVD version, and never knew my whole life that the music on that version is broken... I just thought it was supposed to sound that way. I want to record a new version of this video with the music working correctly, it's just hard to find the free time lately.
@@advveo If you're still looking to do this, you might want to check out ScummVM - I just finished a play through, using my DVD copy that came with my old copy of Myst 4, which I think is the same version as the 10th anniversary DVD and it played flawlessly, full music and everything.
there's music in this game? @@advveo
@@cybernet3000Myst 4? Is it a fan-game of yours?
I played this as a child for a very short amount of time but the memory has been etched into my brain and I’ve wondered for years what game this was
I’m just like you, never understood the game but it stuck in my mind forever idk why
I have a very similar experience with this game
I have a very similar experience with the must series
EXACTLY THIS, i borrowed a bunch of ps2 games from a friend one and this was one of them, i played for 5 minutes in the first area, didnt understand ANYTHING as i was a dumb kid and never played it again, i have been looking for what the game was for so long now
me too! all i remembered was the opening scene but i managed to find it
This game scared me when i was a kid. Not because of jumpscares , just the atmosphere. I still feel something weird when i watch it.
And I thought it was just ME as a kid...
Agreed! I played riven as a kid and forgot about game til today. Still watching it today its weird. Especially the people who you encounter.
Me too, really creepy vibe
YOOO I GENUINELY THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
It was because of all the weird little animations taking place in an otherwise still, quiet environment. Made you feel as if you weren’t completely alone and someone was gonna sneak up and scare you
The trip inside the sphere around all the connected marble machines you just spent a long time figuring out is one of the most satisfying video game cutscenes of all time.
This brings back all the memories and anxieties I had as a ten year old trying to figure out what on earth I was doing in this game. Sending the elevator up without me was a HUGE success for me. lol
For some reason , back in primary school , my english teacher based part of their curriculum around the game , it was to do with descriptive writing and we had to pretend we were there . It went to the extent where they were making scrolls in real life
yep! us too!
That last heartwarming scene when he gives you the wave goodbye makes my eyes water every time. This guy has been through so much and at heart he's still just a good guy, who loves his family. He's just suffered a lot
Myst3
Naaah Artus really only cares about his ideas. He doesnt even bother to learn your name. Dude. He lets you get sucked into a void between riven and mist 3. Hell, you dont even get to enjoy his library at the end of myst 1. Artus does nothing but betray, underwhelm, amd self serve.
Artus is not a good person. He is literal feces. His sons fell not far from the tree. His wife pretended to be a goddess. His father? We'll never know if ghen changed, or what artus did to provoke him. You help artus destroy a world, and people who chose his dad over him, in his dads world, not his.
Artus is as sociopathic as his dad amd sons, if not worse. Catherine is the only worse one, she knows artus and gave him another kid, and look at what else? Artus doesnt care about old worlds. He runs away from messes, makes other people clean them up, and writes new messes. Artus effectively enslaved a person he has never said the first name of, never written a journal about, and never created a world for, or taught to create worlds.
Soooooooooooo what the fuck are you talking about? We have never gotten the whole story, just thrown in a jail, and told solve your way out for someone elses benefit. What basis have you for saying that?
@@forwarddiscipline Jesus christ dude. One, the comment was talking about Saavedro, not Atrus. Two, it's Atrus, not Artus. Three, if by Atrus destroying a world you mean Riven, that wasn't Atrus' doing. Riven was falling apart because it was an unstable world.
Next time you write an entire essay in a youtube reply section, try to at least get things right.
@@ethanlivemere1162 it wasn't falling apart because it was unstable, Ghen was destroying it with his machinations.
You didn't get any of what you said right. Your basis is flawed. Bye bitch.
@@forwarddiscipline Nah apparently we wanted to get sucked into that void between Riven and Exile because that actually led back to our Earth (age). Who's to say we even gave Atrus our name lol, it's not like there's a prompt to give "My friend" a name so I just assumed our character just doesn't tell people their name (plus let's be honest, since the lines were all voiced, we all know they just went with a generic "my friend" because using a text to speech to voice a name would be awful and it's suuuuper gender neutral).
Uh, and the library thing not being able to enjoy it was up to the developers, and we can just assume the player didn't want to read more books after exploring the whole island already, lol. Not sure why you're playing Atrus for that considering he said we could explore the whole island and we just...quit the game after that. That's on you, my guy.
The reason Catherine pretended to be a goddess was because she had no choice, she literally got there and it was already happening, so she used that power to try to save her people from Gehn. She, in fact, said she didn't like the whole goddess thing in the game itself, so not sure how you missed that.
...And yes, you do know if Gehn changed, you wanna see the bad ending where he murdered both you and Atrus with a gun if you trust him? :'D
Ha, I think you'll find at the beginning of Riven that he literally tells you that he can't come with you to save his wife and fight his dad because he's busy holding the world together with his writing. You didn't watch or play the second game at all, did you? There's plenty of full playthroughs on youtube, how about you watch them~?
I remember beating this game back in 2005, I'm a huge puzzle gamer and was told if I wanted a real challenge, I should check out the MYST sagas. I really REALLY enjoyed this game!! Highly recommended!!
Ahh Myst III... I remember it being one of few games on my dad's PC when I was 5 years old or so. Playing it alone in a foreign language was probably the first damage my mental health received :/
So my grandma, my moms mom, got me into video games back in the day, this and Nancy drew. She passed three years ago, and seeing this video makes me feel closer to her. It’s crazy that I’m just now being recommended these videos. Thank you for posting all the games. I’m crying 😭
Brad Dourif does not get enough praise for his portrayal of Saavedro.
I often thought about these games. I played them all, but never got far in them. I never could figure out all of the puzzles, and I have some regret over it. I thought about this randomly the other day, and I am glad you made a video of it.
For a third-part game studio to take on the Myst franchise, I think they did a brilliant job. I hope this gets remade sometime.
Oh cool Wyrmtongue is in it.
Thank you this was really helpful for my latest english work because we made 3 chapters about this video game.
Nostalgia. My primary School year 4 class played this game. First the teacher played it for us then we could play it. Brilliant game. Wish it was on PlayStation.
i like how you pretend not knowing what to do
I've noticed that walkthrough youtubers always do that. It's like they want everyone to think that they're playing it for the first time and suddenly find the solution really quickly. They're just trying to look smart.
Omg I remember my teacher in year 3 or 4 playing this game in IT for all of us to watch and I’m only now finding it!
1:14 is really incredible. They managed to capture the vibe of an isolated island so well. You can stand on the walkways and watch the lightning off in the distance.
Excellent work from Presto.
If you love reminiscing over these games Atmosphere ASMR is very similar in composition. It's like watching a high def movie version of the Myst games.
When I was 8 my class played this game with our teacher and used to do creative writing exercises based on the different settings. We didn’t get further than Amateria but It’s one of my favourite school memories
Ours too!
The aesthetic in the early Myst games is just... Hum! Beautiful! X3
player: Ok, you're free now, you gonna pass the book right?
Saavedro: :D *yeet*
NO! NO!! NO NO NO
When I played this game originally I never came past the symbol drawing in Narayan. I sort of got what needed to be done, but I never got the orange turning to white confirmation of doing something right. Dunno what I did wrong, maybe something wit the order. Like clockwise vs anti clockwise vs from left to right.
Good to see the little bits I've missed.
i remember i played a demo version of this not particular game but a guy says well,welcome to dunny.this was several decades now.
i got a lot of motion sickness playing this one... love the sounds still to this day...
This in VR would be amazing
There's actually one more ending where if you go outside where Saavedro is waiting by the ship, (before you trap him), he threatens to throw the book off the into the abyss if you do not go back inside and switch off the shield. You can go back inside before he loses his patience, but if you wait too long it triggers an ending where he throws the book off the edge and then kills you.
If you wait here, at 2:25:05 for longer than a few seconds he starts to get angry.
I remember beating this game. There is actually more than one ending. I tried two of them.
As great a series as Myst was, there are certain moments where there is a jarring disconnect between your experience as a player and the experience you'd actually have if you were there. The final confrontation with Saavedro is such a moment. The last-minute rush to trap him is almost certainly unnecessary. He and you both know that if you release him, he can easily destroy the book, but if he gives you the book first, and you then refuse to release him, he can still kill you. You have every reason to help him but no reason to trust him and he knows that.
I loved this game. MYST has not been surpassed to date...
10:33 I have always considered this mobile very clever.
Narratively, it illustrates Saavedro's thirst for revenge, with Sirrus, Achenar and Atrux hanged together.
And from a gameplay point of view, it gives us a clue that will be very useful in this puzzle of Amateria, at 1:25:00.👍
Such a beautiful game!
I had to play this game in primary 🤦♂️
Same
I had to watch my teacher play this game when I was in Primary School 8 years ago.
ditto! in english my teacher would show us a chunk of a location and we'd have to write a descriptive piece about it. i guess that's a testament to how immersive the environment was in this game
Kat Hughes omigosh same I thought it was just me 😂😂
Our teacher in primary school played this with us and chose the bad ending. Wish I had this on ps2 when I had that
1:30:50 still one of the most epic moments in my long video gaming life.
and that after hours of getting to that elevator part
I love these kind of game.
a remake for VR would be nice.
"Myst...wow, this world is crazy"
*Brad Douriff:* "It's called an 'Age'....and believe me, I know about CRAAAAZY"
I love games that offer a variety of outcomes and methods of operation. I finished Myst a long time ago and then Riven last week. Lots of cheating, but I try to figure out as much as I can on my own. I promised I would do Exile on my own but here I am.
haha same
Don’t feel bad if you had to use cheats for Riven. It would likely take months to complete without any direction from at least a couple other sources
This game used to freak me out as a kid watching my dad play it on PS2
Childhood nightmares. Mum thought it was a funny game for us to play together. Got killed in the end.
nothing like a bonk
Edanna is the toughest in terms of sheer navigation. So confusing, with twisted, mangled roots and plants 😅
1:32:35 ...That ride tho
It's similar to my thought process on what to have for dinner.
Must be very hard to create such a game.
MAD graphics in the cutscenes, almost looks like real people.
yeah funny what a green screen can do these days
They dont make games like this anymore. I spent hrs trying to figure out these puzzles and the satisfaction of finally finding the solution is sadly lacking in modern gaming which holds your hand for everything .
I liked the Bonk endings.
I laughed so hard
Myst 3 Exile for the ps2 is more foreboding scarier and more like a dream it has a zip drive mode faster moving when needed the best version 100 times better than the pc version of the game i printed out a walkthrough of the game many years ago could never understand it this video playthrough i think will progress me to move on to a new place all levels.
Why did this game scare me as a child
Soundtrack to this is better than 95% of Horror Movies.
i can get the to go through the purple one and can go no further.what do think is happening?
I PLAYED THIS IN PRIMARY
I really wish there was a way to play this and Revelation(s?) on iPad. I have RealMyst and Riven on my iPad but Exile and Revelation(s?) would be truly incredible, especially as I barely even got anywhere in Revelation(s?) due to my computer at the time I had it was really crappy and could barely run it.
Do the recent 25th anniversary editions work on an iPad? Sorry if they don't, I just wasn't sure if you were aware of their existence.
exile also came out on the ps2, so if you can get an emulator for ios you can play it there.
i just found the game in a box of my dads old dvd's
is there any way to play this on a modern laptop?
Myst, Riven, and Myst III are all compatible with ScummVM. That is probably the easiest and best way. I think if you put in the CD and launch ScummVM, you can run it right off the CD.
@@advveo thx!
the beacon to the left has a header broken off.
The part at 32:15 fucked the shit of my head for years, and only today i've decided to look up the solution...
There’s 3 endings you “myst” at the end, where you go to Savvedro after he finds hope, then he’ll drop the book. The 2nd one is, if you do that, but go back, then go there again, he’ll also drop the book. Third time’s a charm, and you’re dead… by Savvedro hitting you with “the book”?
Cool….
CAN I BUY THE FILM PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Myst III's music is some of the best in the series! Why did you cut it out? (That's ok, I have the soundtrack running while I watch the video :P
i didn't cut anything and i have the music frequency set to the highest setting. perhaps there is some difference between the music in the original version and the anniversary edition? (i'm using the latter in this video.) i don't really have any other explanations for why the music would be different.
EDIT: ah, nevermind, i've discovered what it is. there is a bug in the anniversary edition that causes some of the music to not play correctly. there is a patch that fixes it, but i wasn't aware of it when i recorded this video. i never knew this was a bug and always just assumed it was the way the game was. i may consider recording this again with the music fixed, thanks for pointing this out!
@@advveo Bugs begone! :D
I must have wasted 2 to 3 years of my life sitting on my own in a room playing these kind of games, and for what.
It probably helped you sharpen skills and your brain. These are possibly the best kinds of games to play for your brain.
nah bud. You learned nothing. You litterally have no basis to know whether helping this dude artus is good or not. Artus is insane. Doesnt even know the charecters name, write a journal about him, a world for him, nothing. You were last seen floating in a void. Artus claps and you come like a good dog, to cleab up yet another mess artus caused. Ps.. Artus destroyed gehns world, not the other way around. Maybe gehn tried to kill artus because artus is like his sons sirrus and assface... I'll never forget how pissed the endings of these games gets me. All the lack of back story the whole way, then the end.
P.s. if you learned anything it was to submit to the blind will of someone you learn nothing about, for 7 consecutive games. If that taught you anything, let it be stay the fuck away from artus.
@@forwarddiscipline the fact that you thought so deeply of these games says it all really
@@drumsno I'll see your judgement and raise you contempt. That was all spontaneous word vomit in brief reflection after readin the op. I hadnt considered it before, and happy to have had the chance to.
The fact that you call your minimally investigated impulsive utterance fact, makes me contemptuous of you.
I suppose if that comment of yours was phrased as a question we would be having a conversation. I would like to know how you know the intent of the games wasnt to cause these very feelings in a thinking individual, that is, to one at least who cares enough to question what end he is a means to. Are you female?
Is there a VR phone version of this?
I own the soundtrack to this game :D
@14:46 omg...I have no feet!
4:03 what happens if you click in the Book ?
It's been awhile, so I'm not totally sure, but I believe it doesn't do anything and just closes the book.
@@advveo Oh, it's a bit deceiving, i thought it could have been a dumb game over, as when you click on your prison Book in Riven.
By the way, the symbol on this book is the D'ni number for "5". This was the linking book of the fifth world of Gehn also known as... Riven.
Worth playing in 2021 ?
Gorgeous to look at, but all these structures and inventions are so unnecessarily complicated built. Doors and elevators that open in outrageously inefficient and cumbrous ways. Form over function. It would be nice to have some of it in real life though, just for the aesthetics.
WHY DID YOU REMOVE JACK WALLS amazing soundtrack!? NO MUSIC :(
это полное прохождение? можно ли связаться с тобой как то в вк? хочется кое что обсудить)
@Лунница а что вы хотели обсудить? может обсудим?
How Stuff Works!!
They don't make them like they used to
Back when Ubisoft actually made good games.
1:09:11
Hey...did i miss somethin'?...
When did we get to China?...0.0;
LOL
@angusyjr ...ikr my first thought was Japan :·D
The 360 view makes me feel nauseous.
they should make a new Myst game but in 1st person view instead of click based gameplay like an FPS game.....
wclifton968 They won’t make any new Myst games, and I disagree with the FPS idea because that’s nowhere near what Myst was, but I agree they should remake the games. They would be amazing in VR. They probably never will though. However, they ARE making a new Myst-LIKE game called Firmament that will be in VR.
+Amaracea OK but i
+Amaracea OK but I'll
+Amaracea OK but by FPS like I meant your in 1st person view but without anything that closely resembles something like CS:GO or Call of duty
Cyan did make such a game in 2016 called Obduction. It's not a Myst series game per se, but very similar in spirit.
2:13:34 well you COULD in theory link over the side there and let the book fall into the abyss below
but ofc you'd trap brad and lose the book.
Hi
Hi
JUST FABBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
Hmm. Exile doesn't look as good as Riven. The 3D models (especially the rocks) look very cheap and cartoony, even though it looks offline-rendered just like Riven. Riven had much better lighting and materials, too.
I agree, but to their credit, it is *really* hard to follow up Riven. That game is a masterpiece and would make any sequel disappointing by comparison. I still like Exile a lot though.
I think they had to sacrifice a little bit of the texture and quality of the models since this game used 360 degree views unlike riven.
Indeed, they sacrificed quality for 3D surround movement it seems. The graphics are not a patch on Riven. The fact that this was developed by Presto, rather than Cyan Worlds and released by UbiSoft rather than Broderbund with different art directors (no Robyn Miller or Richard Vander Wende) is probably why I liked it less.
