Gamespot's Greg Kasavin brings to us his rather benevolent critique re Cyan World's Myst V: End of Ages, for which Greg passes out judgement in the form of a 7.9 out of 10 overall rating...
The conclusion of Myst V isn't as dramatic or as apocalyptic as you might expect from a game that's billed as the very last installment in the series. In fact, if not for this billing, you probably wouldn't come away from Myst V thinking that this was the end. But assuming this really is it, Myst V: End of Ages is a fittingly dignified ending to a series of games that ushered in a new era for a genre that once ruled the PC. Today, adventure games are not as prevalent as they were when Myst first appeared more than 10 years ago. So it seems appropriate that Myst V comes across as reverent of its origin to the point of restraint, as if the game didn't dare try to supersede the standards of its predecessors. |
