The Gathered Will Tell... I have been an avid fan of the Myst series for years now and have enjoyed every title. When I originally purchased Uru: Ages Beyond Myst, it took some time to get used to the surprising changes which Cyan had incorporated: real time 3d graphics, a custom avatar viewable from a third person perspective, newer more dymamic puzzle solving, and for a brief time, during the prologue of Uru Live, interaction with other players. It was worth the adjustement though, in every possible way. The story of Uru is massive and far more expansive than previous installments, and the real time 3d rendering makes the experience seem more alive... one can explore more freely, see and do more.. Complete Chronicles represents the full Uru experience. It includes Ages Beyond Myst, To D'ni, and The Path of the Shell. Ages and Path of the Shell are substantial and challenging adventures, while To D'ni provides more information on the D'ni culture than any other source to date. As a single purchase, I personally think that Complete Chronicles is almost impossible to beat for the experience and the value. Some people have criticized Uru for the minimum system requirements. You certainly will have to pay attention to them, as they are literally the very minimum with which you can expect to experience Uru. Others have complained about the third person view, but this is strictly optional and Uru can be played in first person just as the previous Myst titles. The perspectives can be altered with the push of a single key. If you are looking for a great value and a wonderful adventure, Uru is the game and Complete Chronicles is the way to get it.
