Gothic 3 vs realMyst
Gothic 3
Gothic 3 lets continue your adventure as the nameless hero of Khorinis and decide which side to side with - King Rhobar and his last troop of followers or the despicable Hashishin who has sided with the orcs that are causing chaos across Myrtana. The game, like the two before it, are driven by its story and the path of its narrative is largely driven by the players' own choices. The world is as open as ever and you can meet and interact with a host of interesting characters. The game even has a class-free character development system that is admittedly increasingly rare in recent days.That said, Gothic 3 may be fun back in the day, but the game hasn't managed to hold up the passing of time unfortunately. Due to this, if you do plan on getting this game, you might want to consider getting some mods.
realMyst
realMyst is, despite the similarity of the name, not simply a remake of the original game so that the younger generation and experience the game themselves; it provides a whole new trove of content that is not present in the older version, including a new Rime Age, optional free roam and zip navigation modes, bookmarking your progress, auto-save option and built-in interactive guides to help you along if you get stumped. Aside from the improved musical scores, the graphics in the game has also been updated to match with the times, with not only a day and night cycle (you'll get a flashlight for navigating at night) and weather patterns, but also advanced, dynamic and incredibly realistic effects.If you truly want to try out Myst, this is without a doubt the version that you should get. It's just so much better than the original in so many ways and most importantly, it lives up to the original's legacy.
