I found this post on Grey Dragon's blog over HERE (http://www.shagwall.com/dragon/2005/01/machine-as-seen-over-on-yahoo-ubisoft.html).
I'll post the quote here, however:
<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>As seen over on yahoo, Ubisoft has released to press that we are officially creating Myst V: End of Ages. I am still very happy about the way the game looks. I can only hope we can make a game that to the fans is a nice ending. Maybe it won’t be jaw-dropping, maybe it won’t make you name your first born child after me, but then again maybe it will. I just want to create a game that when one finishes they get up from the computer and say. That was a nice ending and a good game.
If it sells millions that would be awesome, but I am starting to think it’s not about selling millions anymore. Cyan is an interesting developer who has always tried to tell a story without blowing someone’s head off. I think that should matter in the industry. Anyone can put killing in a game to advance the story. AKA Kill these bosses get threw the door, pick up a ****** and get more life, shoot businessman and steal his money. That’s easy. I have nothing against those games either I just wish that making an adventure game had more merit. When will people be sick of killing people and things in a game? Its like the gaming industry is in the pinnacle of its era and FPS’s are the coliseum. When Rome falls where will the artisans be? Will they be left behind in the scorched earth all dead and only mentioned as a memory.
When ever creating something different some people won’t get it, but those who do really understand it. I’ll explain… Last year there was a great show on TV called Wonderfalls. It was different but had a funny and dry humor me and my friends love. We watched the show religiously for the 6 episodes it was on. It was different and personally I think that the Miller’s being huge Apple lovers understand the Apple slogan. “Think Different.â€Â
2005 will be a very interesting year. I hope Cyan can live up to the expectations. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
It's obvious to me that Cyan wants to tell the most interesting and compelling story yet. And they want it to be jaw-dropping. I think the project is in good hands and we have something to look forward to... very much!
