See basically your problems are with conceptual decisions within Bungie. Its not the facts that are in debate its your opinion of the game, which is all fine and well. Personally I am confident there will be another myth, it is just fated to be. Not for a while however.

: I know Bungie isn't stupid, but since when do you remove
: areas that could have allowed for more great story to
: set up a level? I did just fine in Myth with little
: description of the actual goal of the level, and
: enjoyed the brief history lesson to boot. The game was
: just lacking and felt like it was thrown together
: prematurely and with less thought than the orignal. It
: seems as if they went all out and made a killer game
: with a great story for the original to try and attract
: a fan base, but got lazy on the second title and put a
: less creative sequel together. This has nothing to do
: with the story, but don't the net maps in Myth 2 lack
: the replayability the originals had? I can always hop
: into a game of Carnage or Team Terries on Creep or
: Desert, but the new maps don't have the same affect on
: me.

That sucks, i like every myth level, rarely do i play an unfun game even if i get my ass totally kicked.

: Well, I hardly believe I'm being arrogant, if at all, I'm
: feeling a little out of touch because I haven't been
: around here since it was the original Myth Story page
: way back when. All I'm saying is, I thoroughly enjoyed
: the orginal Myth because it was something new and it
: caught me off guard that a game could have such a
: spectacular story. I was just dissapointed there was
: not more info on the Watcher and the Deceiver's
: relationship, Shiver and the Head (who I believe to be
: the 5th Fallen Lord and was one of the two highest
: ranking officials in Connacht's time, the other being
: Soulblighter). Your right, a new game can come out,
: and they announced they new scenario pack so perhaps
: there are more answers in it. I was just expecting
: more I guess.

I have incredibly high expectations for games. I can rip a great game up one side and down the other. There are a million problems with the greatest of games, and the best games dont have less issues, they just dont make the problems that much of a problem really.

: Arguably, and you better have a strong argument. There is
: no doubt it was revolutionary but it got completely
: repetitious after a about the 7th or 8th level when
: you realize all 20-odd levels are, build, defend
: against mindless attacks, then attack enemy with
: larger force than theirs. Not much strategy, not much
: story but it was something new and exciting.

: Chris

Like i said it gets a little two sided but it is nothing like games such as TA. I thought the levels of War2 had just as much story development as the Myths. But that maybe because i was in like 7th-8th grade as opposed to 9th and 10th.

ps. Mark my words, Myth3...eventually.
