...Who was asking about Myst?
Point and click has been a dead genre for like 2 decades now
It's relevant enough for PC Gamer to be writing about it, so someone must've been asking.
This "dead genre" has been steadily receiving games the whole time it's been out of the zeitgeist. And it's popular enough that they were willing to remake one of the greats as well as its sequel. Things aren't dead just because you personally don't like it.
Remaking a game from a few decades back reads more as desperate than anything else. They're relying on nostalgia for sales, not actually attracting a new audience
Get fucked and speak for yourself. Myst is an amazing game. You ignorant slut
I clearly touched a nerve. And, just like I'd expect from someone who would overreact like this to a very neutral comment, you completely misread what I said.
A few I enjoyed from the current decade are Pentiment, return to monkey Island, and twelve minutes
Open it up to 2010s and you'll include The Wolf among us, the walking dead, Kentucky route zero, Sam and Max devils playhouse, etc
I would disagee, while rare there are still a few new bangers that make it. For example Disco elysium. wouldn't mind a remake of a couple of point andclick alsö
I've never really thought of it as one, but I guess Disco Elysium could technically qualify as a point and click adventure. It just doesn't have the object combination based puzzles I normally associate with the genre.
Visual novels and walking Sims like firewatch and What Remains of Edith Finch are just point and click adventures in a different dimension.
Idk about that, the Riven remake that came out last year was one of the best games I've played in ages.
You, specifically, enjoying a ...remake of a spiritual successor to a game that came out decades ago... doesn't mean the genre is alive and kicking.
Don't forget about the "new" Monkey Island!!
There is a loud contingent of people who think myst is the peak of gaming.
They're wrong, but harmless.
As a huge myst fan myself i fired up my save of myst 2021 and played rime. The day the update came out came out. The books really enhance the game series. The new remake of Riven is top notch.
