Title: Flagship/Mythos Team reborn as Runic Games

Travis and Max heading the studio.

THIS BE GOOD THING. YAR.

Name is silly. But awesome. Froth with me. I'm glad Mythos got scrapped by the way. Too much a mess, too little the awesome. Great ideas though, particularly the random map drops for more dungeons. Weeeeee.

Hey maybe they could make a MMO based on Norse mythology!

Pretty sure I read that Namco/Bandai saved Hellgate.

I wonder if they'll have the balls to offer a lifetime sub for their new game.

Hellgate: Reykjavik

Hellgate: Reykjavik

That would actually make sense.

Nothing is finalised to my knowledge. HanbitSoft was still making a lot of noise and their owner, T3, planned to grab HG:L as well.

Froth with me.

What do we point to in order to have faith? Been a long time since they left North and a longer time since Diablo II.

I like Travis getting work. Less about Max, more about Travis. Both Fate and Mythos were steps in the right direction. This new company doesn't seem to be reinventing the Hellgate wheel also. Good thing.

I thought the upgrade to a real overworld was interesting. Playing it on the beta server didn't really make it seem all that fun but it was an interesting idea. From a  gameplay/convenience aspect though, not having vendors outside every dungeon was a pita.

Also no longer available: Motor City Online. Best scrub that shortcut too!
