Recently, a sequel to the cult classic Norse hack n' slash RUNE was released to mixed reception. The next day, its developer Human Head Studios announced they were closing their doors, despite taking an Epic exclusivity bribe for the game and it apparently selling better than they thought. This has left both players and their pseudo publisher wondering what kind of support the title will receive. The whole saga is very strange and I talk about that and why this kind of thing further erodes the already razor thin trust gamers have in the industry.
