The premise of Ragnarok feels hollow and empty, especially considering Human Head Studios has had 19 years to perfect it. The story is bleak, the narrative is constantly broken up, and there are no red threads for it to follow, nothing to tie it all together. Here, Heimdal is prompted to pick a companion in the form of one of three gods - Thor, Hel and Odin - and these three characters represent the game's class system, which works just as badly as everything else that Human Head has managed to cram into this game.

You take on the role of a stern Viking called Heimdal who has about two hours to collect experience points, weapons and gear before being pulled into a parallel dimension where Loki awaits.

RUNE 2 REVIEW FULL

Ragnarok is here in full force and brutes like Thor and Odin have yet to deal with the mess that Loki has created. The world of Rune is in shambles when the adventure begins. Rune was a great game and it pains us to have to review its sequel because it may well be the most underwhelming game of the year (so far, there's a couple of weeks left). It was built using Unreal Engine (1), was absolutely gorgeous, had a fantastic multiplayer mode, and offered enough mythology and mystique to reel players in for the long haul. Rune was a passion project for Human Head's Michael Larson and Chris Rhinehart. After 19 years it's once again time for Thor, Freya, Odin and Loki and all the Norse mythological entities to wreak some more havoc in the sequel to Rune (which was originally meant to be titled Rune: Ragnarok), and we've spent the past week playing this catastrophe. Since then, developer Human Head Studios managed to create a fantastic first-person shooter with Prey as well as work on its sequel (before that was ultimately cancelled and rebooted in a completely new direction by Arkane). We remember the sounds that played as we picked our weapons in the catacombs underneath the gladiator arena where the Vikings of Rune battled for honour, and we remember the music that played during the single-player campaign. We have dear memories of a bunch of loud LAN nights with our friends where we, using our connected Macintosh desktops and switching between Quake III Arena and Rune for days at a time.
