Runemaster, Norse-themed randomized sandbox tactical RPG from Paradox - CANCELLED

[GrainWetski]

That shitty console UI makes me want to smash a gamepad. Just awful. Next up: Paradox starts shitting all over their grand strategy games' UIs because Sony paid them money.

It's also funny that people think Norse mythology is generic and bad because some Ameriturds pretend their trash have anything to do with it.

This game looks like ít could be fun, though.

Aw.

Hi everyone,

I have some news to share with you today regarding Runemaster. After much internal debate we have made the decision to freeze development of the project until further notice and move the development team working on it to other projects within Paradox Development Studio.

This was not an easy decision to make - Runemaster was a very ambitious project for us, and the team working on it brought all of their passion, dedication, and talent to the table. Despite our best efforts and a couple of re-scopes, Runemaster in its current form was unable to live up to the standards we set for ourselves here at Paradox.

Runemaster was a different type of game for us, and even though we were not able to fully realize our vision for it, we will take the lessons we learned to heart as we move forward with new endeavors. We will also look into how we can re-use the best parts of the game in other ways.

Our aim is to let all the talented developers who worked on the project to remain with Paradox Development Studio and bring their expertise to the other great games currently in development.

Kind regards

Susana Meza Graham
COO Paradox Interactive

Every time someone uses that it makes me think of the game that really needs a 21st century Kickstarter revival.

Yeah, it looked like fucking rubbish at Gamescon.
