Is this game similar to Therian Saga?

[Edreyn]

I played Therian Saga a few years ago and greatly enjoyed it.
I did want to come back to it after a long break, but by thius time everyone moved much forward, and being a new player on a server of veterans wasn't really fun, I couldn't get anything fit for my level on the in-game market.

Will be happy to start anew with Mist Legacy, but only if it's similar enough.
What does if have similar to Therian Saga and what's different?

Yes, I am aware that both games require paying once in a while for a comfortable play, and I am okay with it.

So, please, someone who played both games, please write what it similar and what is different between them.

Very familiar feel.
Mist is newer/shinier obviously.
Main difference is that while Therian was based around the time tasks took, so you would build a queue of tasks running for many hours, Mist has a different basis, and uses cooldown timers on the resource nodes.
You'll easily get far enough to see if you like it in "free play".

Thank you, maybe I'll have a look.

I just went through this move myself. I played Therian Saga for a few days, got bored of the long timers, and moved to Mist Legacy because i read it was faster pace.

The part i don't like about Mist Legacy is that i feel like it's too linear. It's rather plain/cookie cutter/typical adventure progression. Where Therian Saga stood out was that you started your adventure with a couple background questions, and you really felt like you were off on your own personal adventure. Mist Legacy has a story and a progression, but the constraints around advancing as a whole are too obvious/basic/simple/mindless. Very top level.

Therian Saga felt like my own adventure. Mist Legacy feels like everyone is playing through the exact same thing. with no variation whatsoever.

Go ahead and give Mist Legacy a try. Maybe you'll like it, maybe after a couple days you'll feel like me and just feel...underwhelmed.

DanyBoyX - A fair statement at present, but remember that Therian Saga has been around for many years (and enhanced over time), while Myst is still Early Access (and was only opened up about five months ago). The developers are adding more content all the time, so hopefully it will get that "do what you want" feel in time.

Thanks for the reminder stevecbartlett. Fair point indeed. I tend to steer away from Early Access titles because too many have ruined it for me (staying in early access for years). I probably should have kept that in mind when i installed Mist. I'll keep this one in my library and circle back around when i see it come out. Fingers crossed!
