The comic is, in a word - Fantastic! Thank you!
I have always been reluctant to play games on-line. MOULa is my first.
I had played all of the single player games before, 3 of them several times. Then, after years of avoiding them, I read all 3 of the MYST novels. What a delight!! The novels, gave me background knowledge of the games. Since then, I've played the games again, several times.
For me, the MYST novels are integral with the games. Had I read, "The book of Atrus," and, "THE BOOK OF TI'ANNA," before playing MYST and RIVEN, the games would have been even more enjoyable. Further, had I read, "THE BOOK OF D'NI," before playing the rest of the games, I can say that they, too, would have been more enjoyable. The books and the games are interwoven, in my view.
Are the books required for game play? No.
However, if anyone wants to really know where they are, the books are a must read. Afterward, URU will look a lot different.
