The Great Shaft also played a significant role in [[Myst V: End of Ages]], which depicted the actions of Dr. Watson following his disappearance. Released by Cyan Worlds in 2005 and thought to have been created shortly after the events it depicts, the game shows a number of changes to the Great Shaft, including operating elevators, improved lighting, support struts to improve stability, and intermittent quakes. Dr. Watson's journal is gone, and the [[Nexus terminal]]s link to the rest [[Age]] of [[Direbo]], rather than to the [[Nexus]] itself. Cyan, and RAWA specifically, have indicated that these changes were artistic in nature. | The Great Shaft also played a significant role in [[Myst V: End of Ages]], which depicted the actions of Dr. Watson following his disappearance.

The shaft is currently in a state of disrepair. The service elevators are not running, and the ramp is too unsafe to use, especially in the dark.
