The real issue with Myst V was the awful drawing mechanic that was necessary to solve almost all of the puzzles. I don't have a lot of artistic ability and what I have is made worse after trying to use a mouse rather than a pen to draw with. Worse, the drawing recognition was poor, so even if you did draw what you were supposed to it was a crapshoot whether the game would recognize it as such. For me, that mechanic reduced the game's puzzles to an incredibly boring session of trial and error.
