: Thanks for the welcome back!
: You put your finger on it exactly. When you played Myth,
: you had never heard of Alric or Soulblighter or The
: Deceiver, so they all sounded delightfully mysterious.
: In Myth II Alric was a hero, Soulblighter and Shiver
: were Fallen Lords (and we had already killed one of
: them) and there wasn't a real driving evil of Leveller
: proportions. Personally, I'd play Myth XII if it still
: maintained half of the story value that Myth had.
: Some levels I found particularly suspenseful;
: 1. Battle of Madrigal (3rd level, it doesn't sound right)
: 2. Flight from Covenant
: 3. Heart of the Stone
: 4. The Road North
: 5. Across the Gjol (and the best level ever)
: 6. The Last Battle
: And in Myth II
: 1. Gonen's Bridge
: See what I mean? There are probably one or two other Myth
: II levels but that is about it. Third party levels
: have created a similar feel, but without an entire
: series of levels before them, they can't hope to be as
: good. Ones that spring to mind are the CoD series
: (particularly Source of the 500 Poisons), Morte Della
: Luna and to a lesser extent, Under Myrkridian
: Standards. Anyone else out there have an opinion?
Yeah, I'd have to agree with you. Though, I thought Sons of Myrgard was one of the best in TFL :-)…they all were! For m2, I'd say that Ibis Crown was pretty good, but not as much. Sequels always suffer to their predicessors…but prequels!…
