Myst V mix-ups

Urwin isn’t in the game. Who ever said he was is a liar. I wanted to see if I could get him in the game because I liked him, but never got the time.

Kahlo isn’t in the game either - the picture on the Ubisoft site is a mix up

Negilahn isn’t either

All of Myst 5 was made from scratch. You might have seen an early picture of todlemer in Plasma one engine. But the plasma one Max files were a mess, same with Noloben.

If you would like to piss off the artist of those ages call them leftovers and watch there head turn red from anger.

Now for the question about concept art, yes there was concept art of these ages that was made during Uru days. However, we used this concept art as broad strokes. Tahgira needed to be an Ice age on icebergs. Todelmer was an age to watch the heavens. Laki, a place the D’ni could watch the capture of the Laki creatures and so on and so forth. All the puzzles in these ages need to change from the original design, because Myst V didn’t have any multiplayer.

So our design team took months and under covered the story of the end. The story of Myst V: End of ages. They looked at recent events that had happened in the D’ni Universe and unearthed this new story. It’s a tale that brings to end a legacy of one family in D’ni and the future of the D’ni people.

Myst V was the most ambitious project Cyan has ever done. With by far the smallest team seen since the days pre- Riven, I believe.

So in short - Myst V is not an Uru 2. Never could be … I would never call it that.

No leftovers were used in Myst 5. We didn’t have them. If we did we might have produced this project faster. Enjoy the game as much as you can. It’s the end, an end of ages, an end of an era, and an end to a legacy.

I need to go and listen to my beautiful girlfriend play the piano. Have a good night.

Peace.
