Cyan Outlines "Hurdles" In Reclaiming Myst Online
Cyan Worlds said it's formulated a plan to bring Myst Online back to its fans, after GameTap shunted control of the property back to its creators.
Cyan CTO Mark "Chogon" DeForest said in a community board letter that despite having a plan in place, cheerfully titled the "Myst Online: Restoration Experiment (MORE)," there are some "hurdles to overcome." Among the necessary compromises will be an implementation of a $25 fee for a six month subscription.
"We are not trying to make any money on this at this stage - but we do need to cover some of the costs," he said.
"You should know that the roadmap does not involve any new content from Cyan at this time. The plan is to start to move the content creation - the 'Art' - to you. In addition the guilds themselves will start to exercise some authority in monitoring, approving, communicating, etc."
Kotaku also spoke to Chogon about when the bigger, better, faster, MORE Myst Online might be up and running:
