The question is: Will this be better than or as good as Darkside Detective?

At first glance it looks similar and obviously the theme is similar as well.

This is not related to the donations, but I want the notification system to go away for everything. It is abused to to point of being of no use, since the best action is ignoring it completely all the time. The integrating Dolphin's file transfer dialog into the notification system was one of the worst usability choices I've ever seen.

Too late. I was playing it on my desktop system before it got to hot to sit at a desk when it is not mandatory. I've got to move it to the SteamDeck…

I've been playing Dredge (GOG) and Lonely Mountains: Downhill (Steam) on the SD.

That's wrong. I enjoyed Quern very much.

And they are re-doing Myst every few years. And they've started to do the same with Riven (2024).

Quoting: tuubiA Myst-like with Day of the Tentacle style puzzles wouldn't be a Myst-like.

Why? What about Quern? And Obduction? What is a Myst-like?

Spoiler, click me

Does it have to have the exact same puzzles? Is that why Cyan keep remaking all their games all time?

It's not about the perspective. It's about the puzzles.

I wasn't impressed with the puzzles in Myst.

Of course there are many 3rd person point and click adventures with mediocre puzzles like Runaway 2. I recently finished re-playing the game after about 10 years. I started sometime last year and got annoyed by the tediousness several times so I took a very long time. So many things stat span a huge amount of screens with animated doors and other time wasters that are (mostly) unskippable.

It looks good, but I'm concerned about the Riven/Myst inspired line. I'd prefer something inspired by Fate of Atlantis or Day of the Tentacle.

There are n distributions. That's too many; the market is splintered. Let's start a new one. There are n+1 distributions.
