It's better than Myst 3 and Myst 5
This is the best in the series that isn't made by Robyn and Rand Miller. Not saying much, I know. But This is a great game, despite not being a bona fide classic. Also... Peter Gabriel moment is awesome.

Where the Myst series went astray
I just got done replaying both Myst III and IV on GOG. I've played Myst and Riven a few times over the years, but this was my first time playing Exile and Revelation in about 10 years (my, how time flies!). Although I enjoyed Revelation a little more than I did on my first play, where I completely gave up in Serenia, I still believe it's not as good as the three Mysts which preceded it. The graphics of Revelation are great, and there are some cool landmarks in Spire and Haven. But what's the point of having good graphics if there's an annoying lag time between screens? Watching some playthroughs of Revelation on YouTube, it seems like this a problem on ALL computer systems, and reducing the resolution or rendered effects doesn't make it go away. One of the things that made Exile satisfying on my recent playthrough is that the puzzles were challenging at times, but not impossibly difficult. I got through the whole game except Amateria without a walkthrough. I cannot fathom how anyone could get through Revelation without "cheating." The puzzles, the contraptions in Spire being a good example, often have vague to nonexistent clues, not to mention, the environments are disorienting. I linked to Haven first and was already stumped by Achenar's gate lock, thinking there was a clue to solve it somewhere, when the player is just supposed to "wing it." I actually don't mind Revelation retconning the Red and Blue Books from Myst. A far more aggravating plothole to me is how Sirrus was able to build all of those aforementoned contraptions in Spire. Even if Sirrus was a technological genius, and happened to have a soldering gun on him when he got trapped, they seem impossibly complex. And where did all of the metal come from? Another issue is that the acting in Revelation is just dreadful - a far cry from John Keston as Gehn, and Brad Dourif as Saveedro. The music is good, but the choice to use a Peter Gabriel song in the infamous Dream sequence of Serenia is just bizzare.

I want to play this again
Just a beautiful, beautiful game. I wishlisted it the moment I saw it on GOG...not because it's not worth the full price, but because I have so many games in my backlog right now that I can't really justify it (it would be the same for X-COM or Civ or any other classic I've played previously). I'm not a huge Myst fan--I forced myself to finish the original way back when only because I felt I needed to justify my ownership of a CD-ROM drive, and I found myself bored by the much-touted Uru later on--but Myst IV really pulled me in when it was released and, yeah, immersed me in its world. "Immersed" is the perfect word in this case, because that's the way I felt while playing it. Now, I can't say for sure without actually playing it again, but my bet is that it still has the power to make me feel that way, even in the wake of other, subsequent, games built with superior technology. (I never did finish M4. My score is more of a nostalgia-based and subjective type emotional score than any measure of the game's difficulty level or buginess or other things like that. Just FYI.)

Best exploration
This game is the last in the Myst series which uses pre-rendered graphics, and Cyan did not disappoint in that regard. It has the same panoramic view as Myst III, but with better resolution, more and better animations and effects, and the ability to tap on any nearby surface. The sound track is excellent as always. All put together, Myst IV offers the most satisfying exploration experience yet. The story and puzzles are a bit underwhelming, which is why I don't give it a 6 out of 5, but the game has something unique to offer, and is well worth your time.

Beau mais pas facile
Beau jeu agréable à jouer mais heureusement qu'il y a une aide intégrée au jeu avec des indices progressifs car les énigmes ne sont pas faciles et il faut bien faire attention aux détails retors.
