Disagreements about whether or not "Myst" is the right kind of adventure game aside, there is an interesting thought on the design of the puzzles. Specifically, that Robyn felt the best kinds of puzzles in the game were the more organic and functional ones which appeared natural to the world. Also during the QA at the end someone asks about the Lucas Arts/Sierra style adventure games and how they might have influenced "Myst". Might that have been anyone from this community? (laugh)

Lol, when Jack Wall spoke up, is it weird I'd ask for Wall's autograph instead of Robyn's?  :grin:
I don't want the world, I just want your half

I think in this case you'd be able to have your cake and eat it too. :)
