New adventure from Cyan (Myst,Riven etc) on Kickstarter (maybe stereoscopic support)
In case someone is interested .. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cyaninc/obduction ... I hope this gets funded and works in stereo 3D, at least its done with the unreal 4 engine which should natively support 3D vision, correct me if I'm wrong. I liked the Myst sequels which were done in realtime 3D (End of Ages and Uru I think) regards steps

I can`t even describe how happy i am that they are doing it. This team is epic! It`s UE4 so there is a hope for proper 3D. Thanks for info - stepsbarto.

Have they said anything about the gameplay? If it's a free-roaming FPP adventure, like Real Myst 3D, I'd definitely be interested ... well that and a steam key.

I'm 99.9% sure it'll be free-roaming and first-person. The description makes it clear that it won't be pre-rendered like the older games. And quotes such as the one below strongly suggest a first-person perspective [quote]Build every element of the experience to make you, the player, feel like this virtual world has become your world.[/quote]

There is a version of Myst called realMyst. [url]http://store.steampowered.com/app/63600[/url] When they made that, they said it was the game they'd wanted to make all along, but the technology for 3D rendering wasn't good enough at the time. (1993) Pretty much a given that any new game will follow that realMyst model.

... quoting from a new update (highlighted by me): [quote]Quick question - Is Obduction going to be a FPS genre or the same point and click style as Myst & Riven? I played Myst when I was a kid but I found the constant clicking an unpleasant experience. Though recently I played realMyst on Steam and I found my experience in the game multiplied by 10x. We're hoping to make Obduction both ways. [b][u]Of course it will include a mode for free roam where you're free to explore where you want to.[/b][/u] But we're also planing on a "nodal" point & click mode that allows the player to simply click to move or turn - similar to the original Myst but in the realtime 3D environment. BTW - we're releasing an updated version of realMyst very soon that has both modes as well. (And the nodes are placed n the same places they were in the original Myst! Hope that make sense.)[/quote]

MystFPS edition! Pew pew pew! Lol ... I like the sounds of that either 'Myst' or 'realMyst' control scheme. [quote="bo3b"]There is a version of Myst called realMyst. [url]http://store.steampowered.com/app/63600[/url][/quote]Yeah that's what I was talking about, I don't know why I thought there was a 3D at the end ... wishful thinking? Anyone know of any way to get realMyst to work in 3D? In D3D it doesn't trigger it and in glide, using nGlide, it triggers it but doesn't actually render in 3D ... funny thing is it has a profile, I may try deleting it, but it's odd that it does but it doesn't trigger it normally. Can you believe they released Myst for 3ds ... not realMyst, but Myst, the original 2D version ... I wonder who's brilliant idea that was. :)

realMyst was released in 2000 apparently, so it's pretty likely that's using some antique DX that doesn't work with 3D Vision which requires DX8. Seems like pretty much the same problem I ran into with Red Faction, where there is a profile but nothing happens. Pretty sure the profile is for the pre-3D Vision setup. Lots of stale profiles in there for old games.
