Yesterday, Cyan Worlds delivered a letter<\/a> to the Guild of Messengers, to be released to the community-at-large. It reads:<\/p>\n

Shorah,<\/p>\n

We’ve got some good news. GameTap and Cyan Worlds have reached an agreement that would return the rights of Myst Online to Cyan Worlds! We’re very excited, but at the same time, there are some hurdles to overcome. Cyan Worlds is currently operating at a reduced capacity. We’re not in a position where we have plenty of resources and people to bring MO back fast and furiously. But we’ve got a plan, and we’d like to run it past you – our fans and supporters.<\/p>\n

Read the whole letter here…<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Basically, the letter says that we will see yet another incarnation of URU (this being the fourth Uru, following Uru Live, Uru:Ages Beyond Myst, Until Uru, and Myst Online: Uru Live, which closed<\/a> just a few months ago), and that it won’t have any new Cyan-based content (at least, not at first). Instead, Myst Online: Restoration Experiment is to be much more community-supported, with a heavier emphasis on the Guild system that was established, but never really put to good use during the extent of MO:UL.<\/p>\n

The initial thinking on the cost<\/em> of this project is $25 for six months, a fee I will gladly pay for more Uru, especially if it is to have fan-run servers, like Until Uru did. I attempted to set up my own UU server back in the day, but I never got it accessible to the public before D’mala (Cyan’s official server) opened and everyone stopped caring about the fan-based servers. Understandably, I’d like another shot at running a server.<\/p>\n

Here’s hoping that this is the Uru that finally makes it, and that the fourth time’s the charm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
