Thanks... which ones did you watch? I haven't made any Lojban videos in years, so I'm not sure how many Lojbanists still follow my uploads, which are primarily speedruns.

@@Jaffra here I am)) I not be curious about lojban for a while, but as in past I had some channels/blogs about Proto-Indo-Europeans I know that it isn't easy to make content. So I just wished to show my appreciation for your labor)

This happens in the remake still

Me too ! I wish they release a remastered version of the original with still images !

I don't like to say this, but I agree. Of course I will purchase though because I like the game, but that sucks. They did the same mistakes in the previous Myst remake, the "look and feel" of the game is totally lost. They failed to mimic properly the genuine colors, contrast, lighting of the game. Sad.

@@luckyfuzz1478 Have you played the Demo? This is nothing like the Myst remake. That changed up the entire graphical tone and feel of the world whereas this is extremely faithful. There's opinions that are just flat out wrong and this is one of them.

​​@@Jayy997I played the original game and this new demo, yes sir. Unreal Engine GI rendering is washing out colors for sure. The 3D characters don't look as good as the original live actors. Bad acting, especially the intro sequence when arriving on Riven. If you call that "extremely faithful", your eyes must be half closed. But I won't argue with you, no time to lose.

@@Jayy997 To conclude this discussion in a more friendly manner... After playing the full version of Riven 2024, it turns out to be pretty good, even though it is not "high fidelity". Those like me who expected it to be 100% like the original game, will be disappointed, since they changed many puzzles and riddles. But at the end of the day, the graphics are very nice anyway (even if some things are better in the original game, lighting, live characters to mention a few) it's still a very fun and enjoyable experience. So, good work Cyan, I am glad to support you.

Could not agree more. It's amazing to me that after 27 years of technological advancement, it was not possible to make an objectively better version of the game. Of course, being able to roam in full 3D is an objective improvement and will be amazing to experience (especially looking forward to trying it in VR)! It is just a shame that the compromises that have come along with that have meant that this remake is overall looking to be an inferior experience to the original. My main disappointment is definitely the loss of the human performances! The ideal result would be to combine this full 3D, freely explorable world with the original FMV performances. I wonder if in the future some bright community member may find a way to mod this remake and somehow splice those original FMV scenes into place! Or perhaps a future patch could bring a great improvement to the quality of those CG characters. In the demo they currently look rather like wax sculptures and don't appear to be the same quality as the world they have been placed in. I have to say though, all of this is a testament to just how phenomenal the original Riven is. What a masterpiece! 27 years later and it still can't be beaten. And perhaps it is not such a bad thing for the original to not be superseded entirely. I am very grateful to Cyan for ensuring that Riven has been kept up-to-date to work on modern machines so we can all continue to enjoy it and share it with others now and into the future!

Agree with most of this but the contrast differences are only present in this trailer. The game still has those dark blacks and stark contrasts.

They support VR so there's no way you could use the FMVs really

@@slothsarecool That makes sense. They'd basically have to make 2 versions of the game, and that would probably cost more money.

Yea I'd probably recommend playing the original first. The remake is changed up quite a bit and serves as a complimentary experience to the original and not necessarily a replacement.

Absolutely agree with you on this one. Even if it meant introducing a few obvious pixels for the FMV scenes, the original acting was fantastic and immersed you in the world in ways the new animated models already don't.

@@utub1473 3D characters will NEVER replace the performances given by the original living actors. To me that's precisely what made that world truly believable as a REAL place. Now that feeling is gone. Riven is a game.

It's the same wind noise that's used in Morrowind for Ald'ruhn. Try to keep up instead of trying to crap on a classic game, fool.

Didn‘t they just replace the actor who died?

Yes, characters are not top notch, but give it a try thanks to the demo, I think you will notice the soul of the game is still there and graphics is outstanding! I am an old fan of Riven and I also see some shots remain better on the original, but this is better in other ways. More, I’ll look forward to play it in VR.

Lets just hope its also better optimised as well.

Having played it, it changes some things still but this is much more faithful in terms of atmosphere. It's a beautiful game.

A remake of a very very good game

Aren't all remakes so ?

A remake of a game probably old enough to be your daddy

no its a remake of a game that never existed until the remake.... SMH

It’s the remake of one of the best selling graphic adventure ever made and a masterpiece of game design. It’s all about exploration, logic and hard puzzle solving, a true journey. If you like more action games it could be the wrong choice (and it’s ok!), but if you love loose yourself in a fantastic world in a mesmerizing journey, PLAY IT, spend your intelligence, your attention, your deduction skill to solve puzzle masterfully integrated with the plot. I LOVE Riven, so I am not objective, but I assure you these things are recognized by great parte of the critic. Is it well aged? IMO yes, but it’s subjective.

Most of that is in cases where it's something new.

@@KororaPenguin Plenty of cases in which they could have got the correct shot

@@DromeG60 Note that I didn't say "all".

@@KororaPenguin Well if you wanna get granular why'd you respond? :P I didn't say "all" originally either

@@DromeG60 Touché.

I played the demo while also running the original on another monitor, and I was kinda surprised by just how much is different. lots of changes to the puzzles, presumable so they will work better in VR. also theres a new maglev track, or at least a track that wasn't rendered originally, so i think there may be some new content. The room with the cage chair thing near the mosaic room at the start is in an entirely new location too. Aside from that, the game so far seems to be super close to the original, and it looks gorgeous.

@@deadturret4049yes agreed, it looks amazing

Mein Ziel ist sub 11, und dann guck ich, ob noch mehr drin ist. Ich bekomme ja jetzt erst endlich das Gefühl, dass ich weiß, was ich tue. Da hör ich nicht auf.

Gute frage, habs mal mit dein run verglichen, Jaffra verliert wegen dem verwandeln 5-6 sekunden

Weil ich dann nichts ändern muss, falls ich das Katapult machen will. Irgendjemand hat gesagt, es wäre ungefähr gleich schnell, wenn man da als Mensch langspringt aber wenn es wirklich so viel Zeit kostet, dann mach es vielleicht erstmal anders.

@@Jaffra 5-6 Sekunden sind es nur, wenn man meinen Orcdog mit deinem Heldmovement vergleicht. Ich habs jetzt auch mal mit dem Held getestet und war 4 Sekunden langsamer als mit Orcdog.

The combination is revealed earlier in the video.
