Does anyone remember playing this game? Do those who played it remember it being horrendously difficult, yet still a blast to play?

I played it with my dad when I was little so that's probably why I thought it was so difficult. I have the disk here somewhere so I should probably go back and give it another go.Aeshi said:
Ah yes, Myst III.
I was a big fan of this particular game, though I did always like the series up to that point. Since I couldn't afford a computer that could run it (being the "impressive technical giant" that it was), I played the PS2 version of it.
It was, indeed, a brain-herniating experience, but the pay-off was beyond delightful.

I'm over joyed to find other people that liked it. The fact that the actors were basically videos of real people was awesome beyond belief. The environments were awesome, too.
MYST III
I THOUGHT I WAS A LONELY MYST FAN IN A SEA OF NOT-FANS ON THIS SITE
AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
It's not my favorite Myst game, but that's not saying it's bad by any means, it's utterly fantastic. Brad Dourif remains the most threatening actor I've ever seen. The puzzles are hard, but fair. The visuals are drop-dead gorgeous for the time. I LOVE it.
So yeah, count me as a mega-fan.

I played it once when I first got the original Xbox when I was about 10. Played about 20 minutes of it, got stuck and could not for the life of me figure it out. I probably should go and pick it back up somewhere- I was a little too young for that game at the time.
Oh yeah, many times. The Myst series was my bloody childhood, of course I played it. 
Lot of cool moments, and the design of the environments was fantastic. I still think I like Riven better, but Myst 3 was certainly a fine game. Still need to complete the fourth game though. Screw that stupid bloody monkey puzzle...

That's funny. I could have sworn there were FOUR discs. All I remember from playing Exile is the rainbow puzzle from the first world. I was eight or nine when my dad walked in with the game, so I could never figure out how to get past the damn door. I reinstalled it a few years later when I was finally in possession of a dialup connection and looked followed a walkthrough just to see the ending. I might try my hand at it again just to see how far I get.Humble Grapefruit said:

played Riven back in the day, was kinda fun... realy suck at these kinda games though lol... liked the world setting it had though
