Post Posted: Mon Jan 10, 2011 10:50 pm — Post subject: New Here: Does this include the single player content?

I've never played Uru, only Myst and Riven, working on Exile, and read 2 of the books. I took a quick look at a walkthrough for Uru and it was the same as what I saw around the cleft. So is entirety of "Uru: Ages Beyond Myst" included in this?

Thank you

There are also a number of other Ages which are not part of the offline game.

Not forgetting you also get to meet some nice people in the live game Very Happy Very Happy

Uru: ABM is indeed included in MOUL, however MOUL has a lot more than just ABM, and more still than the To D'ni and PoTS expansions (which were modified from the original Myst Online for solo playing).

A large portion of the game can be completed solo, however there are some spots where you'll need anywhere from one to upwards of eight to complete.

Thank you all. So if I am playing MO is there any point to getting Uru: ABM or CC?

Well it's up to you I guess. Some people like having both versions, however MOUL is more "modern" as it supports widescreen and has newer content. There's also some other reasons to use the offline version that cannot really be discussed out here.

Singleplayer URU:CC is URU:ABM plus the two expansion packs, Path of the Shell AKA POTS and To D'ni. URU:CC is fun, interesting and challenging, and obviously you can play it alone. However, when you visit many areas, you may feel very lonely because URU:CC a revised version of an earlier multiplayer online URU.

In singleplayer Myst:End of Ages, you visit an expanded area in D'ni that you visited in URU:CC.

Online multiplayer MO:ULagain AKA MOULa is essentially URU:CC (with the multiplayer aspects restored) plus new content unique to the multiplayer online URU.

If I were you, I'd play both URU:CC and MOULa, as there are notable differences between the two. URU:CC has content (and an Easter Egg) not available in MOULa, and MOULa has content (and other players) not available in URU:CC. MOULa requires the help of other players to solve some puzzles, which may or may not bother you.

In addition, I think playing Myst:End of Ages would be worthwhile due to the additional D'ni areas you can explore; in URU:CC and MOULagain, you only get a taste of these areas.
