Bellular News reports that Bethesda are being sued by Ragnarok who are the publisher of Rune II.
More information.
Rune II - Bethesda being Sued by Ragnarok
- Thread starter Silver
- Start date
The original Rune was good (for its time), but most of what I've read about this game has been overwhelmingly negative.
The lawsuit is pretty funny. It claims Bethesda conspired with Human Head Studios to torpedo Rune II because it "posed a threat to TES".

Yeah it sounds frivolous but most things about office politics do. My honest opinion I wouldn't doubt that Bethesda's former owner ZeniMax is above using such tactics.
There certainly seemed something very fishy when it came to Rune II. It promised a lot, seemed to be getting ready for release, then seemed to take a firey dive into a dumpster never to be seen/heard again.
I understand that there is some effort being made to salvage things, but clearly *something* very messy occurred behind the scenes, as both parties have track record for releasing/supporting games (ie. they know the basics). Admittedly Human Head had a rough run of publisher-cancellations, but still.

Rune is using prolly the most horrible font in existence..
Still I would endure a turn-based version of this game with the camera from XCOM: EW.
