Isn't it awesome to discover a channel that's been running for years, with 500+ vids ready for you to binge-watch?! Yes it is. Love your channel LGR
Hah, yeah i just thought the same thing
you must be new here?
KamenRiderBlackSun Nope
Yeah, that´s always a amazing feeling. =)
If you like retro YT channels you can binge-watch, how about you watch some Game Sack, too?
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the movement and animations? They look better and smoother than many modern games do.
They look fantastic for the time and are still good. The whole combat engine is super pleasant like in games released years later. Also the textures and light effects really work with the low-poly graphics, so the game doesn't look that ugly like many other games of the era.
Too bad they released the sequel early and then abandoned it the day after release when they closed their studio doors and jumped ship to another company.
I looked for this game for decades...
Looked in the magazine back in the day when i was almost teen, played it in gaming center somewhere 2002-2004, my mother threw magazine in trash and forgot the name of it.
From that day i was looking for the name of the game to buy for myself after i got computer, all i could remember was bulky guy with a blue shirt.
Now i can rest in peace.
I never got passed the Hell level myself back in the dizzay :'(
You have a voice made of gold. A pleasure to listen too.
+Milky Lamb Thank you!
+Lazy Game Reviews I second that! Nice accent! What State you were born?
I think it's made of steel.
Something about these 90's games really takes me back, they have this feeling that you'll never find in modern games, games like Unreal, Hexens; so good.
came out in 2000
you all have micropenises
I know the feeling. Something about these old, classic games is really something that hasn't been properly replicated in today's video games.
With each new, modern game that is released, I just crave more older- More polygonal games with that special FEEL about them.
When Elder Scrolls 6 is released, I'm probably gonna go play Morrowind instead. Or Daggerfall.
I think that quality you're missing in modern games might be this thing they call "nostalgia"
For some reason old games are good at that haha
@@MrDoctorColossus Nah there is more. Look at what unreal 99 did with almost nothing but some dynamic lighting.
Now look at Just Cause, I'm more bored with that shit.
Rocket league hits the spot perfectly here. The strategy games back then tried to be fun and customizable, look at AoE 1 game settings. Half an hour of shit to experiment with before the game even started.
Look at wc3 custom maps and compare to the failed sc2 custom scene, how do they manage to screw that up?
Moddability is another thing that's still not taken seriously by developers.
With a ten times larger market comes ten times the vomit, look at EA and how they are fucking over every franchise.
This game is the second best lizard-eating simulator I have ever played in my life.
What's the first?
***** lizard-eating simulator of course. honestly I won't be shocked too find out if there's a game called that.
*****
Lizard Eating Simulator 2012
***** Shadow of the Colossus?
Painocus
Probably. I should play that game sometime.
Just so you guys know, Rune Classic on GOG includes Rune Gold as a bonus.
"You're a badass named Ragnar!"
Ohhh, there once was a hero named Ragnar the Red, who came riding to Whiterun from old Rorikstead...
A great horse rider
With head belonging to her
I heard that bard fuck saying that as I read this. Can't remember his name.
@@rustyshackle8000 Mikhail?
@@dr.velious5411 Yeah! That fucker.
And the bragger did swagger and brandish his blade as he told of bold battles and gold he had made...
This guy gets SOOO much praise, and he deserves all of it. He could probably spend as much time reading these comments as we spend watching his videos.
Thanks!
Lazy Game Reviews yeah man, i mean every word!
My father wanted this for Christmas one year. My mom bought him "Dune" instead. Curse those rhyming names!
Win nonetheless.

Dune is fire! Download Emperor: Battle For Dune on either Good Old Games or Abandonware!
Wow, 2568 likes and only 16 downvotes (0.6%)! That's an amazing ratio for almost 100k views. Just proves that even if someone is not into your reviews, there's hardly any reason to actually dislike them. Keep up the great work!!

Oh yes. This game was brilliant. I played through the whole thing in multiplayer over a LAN with a friend. There was one point where I got both my arms cut off but was still alive. I just ran around helpless until I was killed. Hilarious.
JimPlaysGames This game is just pure fun to play on LAN. I and my friends spent hours on this game.
There was also a game mode (Headball) where cutting off enemies heads and arms, then throwing them in basketball esque stylized hoops (not necessarily killing your opponents) was the way to winning the game. These maps had little jumpy leatherskin trampolines and you could score extra points with a long range shot timed at the right moment. What a cool game
Love that your "area" looks and feels like a game store circa 1998 (I worked for Electronics Boutique 1997-2001, so I get very nostalgic about it)
That's definitely part of the idea, yeah! I loved EB and Software Etc. back then.
dude u should have seen classic game room he has freaking arcade machines in his room or should i say it the inter galactic space arcade :D
I remember those from childhood!
They felt like an universe of possibilities! I thought the video card boxes were also games
I still remember buying Battlefield 1942 at EB. When the console section was a couple of shelves.. good times.
The fighting mechanics remind me of the Jedi Knight series.... Could you take a look at those games in the near future? :)
@Zachary Hare jedi knight and jedi outcast if I remember the names right. It's the first thing I thought of as well.
The multiplayer was so fun in this. There was a surprising amount of skill involved once you play against good players, and dual rooms where quite common because of it
Had this game on PS2 and absolutely loved it! Despite the noted clunkiness and glitches the epic story still engrossed me. From Hell to the snowy mountaintops it was amazing. Also had some fun times playing multiplayer with my brothers. Funny thing is I think my Grandma bought me this game, which makes it even better.
This game was one of my very first multilayer experiences, I subsequently spent many of my younger years playing online and joining guilds and making friendships that have withstood the test of time. An amazing game, full of amazing people.
Being a 10 year old kid when Rune was on store shelves, I mostly chose PC games for my mom to buy me by the box art. A viking with a horned helmet and axe, with another weapon visibly sheathed on his back, it was the perfect game for me. And I poured hundreds of hours into the multiplayer even with our at the time 56k connection. I still became pretty good with 150-200 ping against players with around 20-50. When we first got a new computer and broadband cable internet in 2002, it was a night and day difference.
I love the nonchalant way you talk about so many things. Your commentary is just gold.
it is an absolute crime this game never got a sequel
Rune II is available for pre-order
@Old Liquid and bears don't shit in woods.
Have you tried skyrim. Lol.
Jk, don't hate me
@Old Liquid why not?
It just got one, and it's a crime how bad it is :-(
I love the late 90's-early 00's in gaming.
I loved Rune back in the day, and played it relentlessly until completion.
I saw this video and I was encouraged to play rune, I thank you because I discovered a new favorite video game
I, too, revisited this game not too long ago. To my complete surprise the game has aged really well and it feels as visceral as I remember it. The level design does feel like a slap in the face at times, I have to admit, but otherwise it's still very much worth it.
This game was kinda obscure and hard to get IMO. Even the pirate shop dudes (back when the internet was not a thing for many of us plebs in Balkans yet) were puzzled when I one day came there to ask them if they had Rune game. They told me to come back an hour later (usually they'd say several hours or even a day later) so I bought the magazine I saw it in with me. When I got there they told they didn't know what this Rune game was so I showed it to them and they were surprised but determined to get into their games library so they told me to come back tomorrow and they got it. :)
Ah this was one of my favourite games back in the day, was so much fun
Thank you! I was about asking you reviewing this, as I was also enjoying it a lot! So finally I could also see it through your eyes, and luckily our taste doesn't differ ;-)
Dude, your voice and slight wit are both enough reasons to keep watching your videos. Keep up the good work.
Rune's such a classic. The animation was unreal back in 2000. So many great memories.
(long comment warning)
I admit I'm someone who's still rather new to PC gaming, having only started to get serious about PC gaming in 2012, and I admit my PC's not custom or very high end, I just upgraded the PC my dad bought for me during college (my old PC that run on Windows XP started to die on me a few years back so my dad got me a new PC that runs Windows 7 mainly for school purposes, but because it had a decent 3.5GHz CPU already in it I just upgraded the GPU to a GTX 660 and the power supply to 600 watts, so I can get pretty good settings out of most games [I'm gonna go fully custom for my next PC]), so that said I did miss out on A LOT of quality PC games, especially ones from the days when not too many PC games were getting console ports.
This channel is really helping me get a good idea on what classic PC games to check out in order to experience the kind of stuff the hardcore PC gaming crowd were big on back in the day, and after videos like this I've either bought a few of the game reviewed (like Blood 1, I'm skipping the sequel), put them on my Steam or GOG wishlists (like Rune), or played and beaten a few and gained new favorite games or franchises (like Thief, with Thief II: The Metal Age being my favorite).
As someone who was raised on consoles, classic PC gaming (and even some aspects of modern PC gaming due to there being more quality PC ports in recent years, that as of now the only current gen console I own is Wii U for all the first party Nintendo releases) is such an interesting territory for me to explore, and I am loving it. Don't know why I didn't before, but you've got yourself a new subscriber!
BloodRedFox2008 Thanks very much for the kind words, and I'm glad the show's been helping! Love seeing these kinds of comments.
Lazy Game Reviews You're very welcome! And indeed, it is a great help. The PC Gaming Wiki has also a huge help to me for learning about ways to tweak certain older games so they run better on modern hardware (or even just getting "not so old" games to run better in general; as someone who played Oblivion on the Xbox 360 first, it was great to learn I could finally get rid of the bugs Bethesda never fixed thanks to fan patches in the PC version, and of course now I'm practically addicted to using mods, they really add a lot of replay value).
Check out also these classics: Doom 1&2, super metroid (its snes, but emulators), dungeon keeper1 (my farovrite) Wizadry 8 (Very cool), theme hopital (altough it was ported to consoles), TES daggerfall (before TES got dumbed down for mainstream players, this one is realy hardcore, allot of glitches and bugs but ultimate freedom also)
Exhumed (Egypt FPS, so cool music)
Many of these games have great history (exhumed, doom) about their developers.
I love oldscool games, they where unpolished diamonds. Old games had more freedom, more challenge, and less noob friendly. Also part of the magic was that their was no youtube walktroughs, or google. U had to find (out) everything by yourself, if u where lucky u had some nerds friends who played the same game. And by finding out urself u got way more involved. Also the bad sprites or GFX let some space for own imagination (wizardy 8)
+ their was no DLC, their was community who produced their own shit for the good games!!
play deus ex!
Poison also try Diablo 1 and 2.
Give the third one a shot if you dig the story from the first two games.
16 MB Voodoo3 2000 - sounds like a joke now.. but back then you would sell your kidney just to get one of these :] ..
WraCkeR Thsi was the first graphics card I ever installed; heck, it was the first piece of hardware I installed. I took the risk of sudden static shock death to my family PC all so I could play Aliens vs Predator. It all worked out :)
Think of how it will be 20 years from now
I played it on my ati Rage 16mb
Now you would sell 2 to get one. And in 5 years you will need to sell your wife and kids
Well, having two kidneys is a more future proof decision than having the latest graphics card... think about it that way.
Man I miss this game so much. I remember being in Middle School and playing it online with a friend from school went by Frost, was good enough that he was accepted into the major clan back then known as iNi. To this day the melee combat they pulled off with every weapon having completely unique combat. The weapon swing was varied by your movement, heading and camera.
The skill level was crazy, I could hold my own for the most part but a true pro could cut my head off the first swing everytime... Reminds me of one dude we used to run into on some servers was a fukn straight ninja he'd hide in the most random spots and instantly dome you with a thrown hammer.
Man I could let the nostalgia flow for real so instead please lemme know if any of you got pretty into playing online back then.
one of my favourite games of all time
this and the first unreal
The glorious, original Unreal Engine. I can't think of a game made with this engine that I don't like. From Unreal with it's expansions, passing through Unreal Tournament, to games such as Deus Ex. I bet someone is reinstalling Deus Ex after reading my comment.
The old PC gaming era, from the 90's to the early 2000's, was simply awesome. Well, the whole gaming in that era was awesome in general. Specially when Valve entered the market with Half Life, and Blizzard still making awesome, RTS games such as Warcraft and Starcraft. And with videoconsoles like the original Playstation, SNES, Saturn/Dreamcast, and the Nintendo 64. I'm really glad to be born in the 90's, but I really wish to live again in that era, having enough money to pay for everything.
That era when videogames used to look like videogames, not like movies. How do I tell all those AAA companies, that I don't want to buy interactive movies? Aside from not buying them, of course. I want my 90's experience back!
+Getar Meal Solid The Deus Ex where you start at the docks? ahh hell you got me i'm gonna re install the heck out of it when I get home
The mid 90s-early 2000s were GOAT for PC gaming.
ICH1990 True, same here. Gaming for me pretty much started its downfall after 2004. Unfortunately we will never see that golden age of the 90's - 2000's ever again in this industry. It's a damn shame these new generations have nothing cool to grow up with.
ICH1990
I'm glad I was born in the mid 80s. by the time those consoles you speak of were released I was old enough to get and play them.
AndyTom Yeah, but you're an old fuck now pips
Another fantastic review.
I remember getting Rune and Severance: Blade of Darkness bundled together in an old PC magazine back in 2003. Man, the hours I spent with these two masterpieces...
So, if you finally reviewed Rune...
Blade of Darkness must to follow next.
How about it? I would love to see you cover it in the future, LGR.
I loved Rune. That game was fun.
Your videos are the highlight of my week :3
I remember picking this gem up along with Giants: Citizen Kabuto for my PS2 waay way back! To this day, I have never managed to matched that random purchase with anything since then.
I like this kind of videos of you the most. I also grew up at that time and love all these old games like crazy!
The dynamic lighting is damn impressive for the time.
This is my favorite game of all time!
Such a relief to find out you appreciate Rune and Prey. Not everyone does. Both games were rxcellent and Rune is one of my favorites.
Great review of a game I've almost forgotten. I actually have the very same demo disc with Rune in it. I'll definitely be fetching this one on Steam. Thanks. You got yourself a new sub. keep up the great work, Lazy Game Reviews. -Nar
You know, you could probably be doing this and make a living off it for the rest of your life. Just keep polishing your craft, I'd like to see you become some gaming-guru, specializing in knowledge on gaming history and perspecives etc some day
Hardtsonfire That's more or less the goal at this point, if at all possible!
Well my friend, just keep doing what you do. I'm pretty sure it's possible :)
I was under the impression he was already a gaming guru, I mean did you look at his wall? he's also very informed on every topic he talks about. Honestly I didn't expect him to mention the Blair Witch Volumes, those are pretty rare.
Rune was epic in MP. And the combat complexity of its time. If someone had a shield you needed to attack from the left. Today its nothing but back then it was awesome!
OMG I remember playing that game and it was so good at the time when it came out. Nice review!
in the middle of this video, i purchased this Pearl on GOG. Thanks to you, LGR. Me too love so much those kind of games and the early 2000's era of videogames, very magical period for games.
In the other hand, i don't understand why GOG don't sell Severance -Blade of Darkness anymore. Pity.
Neat. This was uploaded on my birthday! Thanks, Clint!
I remember RPG servers online. This game was AMAZING.
As someone who used to work in a box-making plant... I can testify that thing was a pain in the ass to make. I'm glad somebody appreciates all that bad-ass embossing and matte-finish layering!
Ok. I'm totally in love with you now. You play the best out of games, and let me remember my Youth with those awesome videos. Dude really, THANKS.
Omg...I need this game! This is Norse awesomeness!
You should review; Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning.
Rune / Enclave / Drakan: Order of the Flame / Severance: Blade of Darkness / Gothic / Morrowind / Arx Fatalis
So much memories...
One of my favourites from the beginning of that decade. Played a heck of alot of Arena under the name "Melee" and even worked on a CTF-Jailbreak mod.
the graphics in this game actually look pretty good, although, it was from that amazing period in gaming when devs had access to powerful hardware and still remembered that color existed. (not that there aren't games with colors anymore, it just seems regulated to indie games. and Grow Home.)
mastrvidman15
For a game made in 2000 the graphics are the best I have seen for that time.
I remember playing this game upon release when I was about 6 years of age. It was such an amazing experience. I still remember swimming then killing crabs. Edit: That game was packaged so epicly.
woow you were 6 when you first played Rune, you're a true viking!
Sure is. The North representing.
I played it at 7 year old. First childhood's memories from this game were so amazing and horrifying. Most Nordic game!
This review is the reason I have this game now. Saw it pop up for three dollars on the winter sale and I knew I had to have it.
Takes a moment to get use to the game as a whole, but man, once you do it's so much damn fun. Thank you for your video! Would've missed this game entirely if not for you and your channel.
I did not know of this game prior the annoucement of the one currently in development. You made me want to play it! Thank you so much for the video, love your work as always.
Great review! I used to play this all the time,your right the PS2 was crap compared to the pc game,I wonder if multiplayer still works for this because I loved all the weird maps people made in there,always some great stuff to keep your mind going for hrs trying to find hidden clues.
Great presentation and a great video. You earned yourself a new subscriber.
Awesome to hear, thanks :)
Multiplayer was godlike and challenging. Arena with duel, deathmatch and CTF! And of course with dismemberment. A classic multiplayer game still alive now...
I loved modding this game. I still work with UE1 to this day :)
This was during a simpler time for video games, when not every other game was a generic FPS.
GenosectKingRevived
When videogame programming was an art and not a way to win easy money.
Yes. Today, every game is linear, casual FPS. Every game is boring, open-world RPG. Every game is pointless simulation. Look at 90 games! Not monotonous at all! Haha! Every game was unique at this time! No
GenosectKingRevived if you call cod and and battlefeild a generic fps every other game. There are more amazing games than ever including fps from triple a games like overwatch to niche fps like insurgency. You are just suffering from survivorship bias where all the shitty generic games from the 90s and early 2ks no one remembers because they were shit.
johnny cool you just said every game is linear but also every game is openworld and boring. Cant even make up your mind. There are plenty of generic games but generic doesnt make something a bad or good game alone anyway.
plenty of dogshit games from the 90s / early 00's as well. you just cherry pick the best ones and call that era better to look cool
Wow! I used to play this game back in the days. My favorite multiplayer map was 1v1arena. You guys remember that map?
Do people still play this game in multiplayer? I lost the cd over 10 years ago. If people still play I want to get back into it. Is Rune gold the best version? Dang this game brings back a lot of memories....thanks for the review.
there was all forms of Multiplayer that was very well executed. Arena, Team DM, headball, deathmatch, all was great
I remember playing this game on my emachine PC. It was slow to start but once you got going it was a lot of fun. Might have to check it out on steam. Thanks lazy for the nostalgia trip.
Worth mentioning that this and the pen and paper RPG were developed at the same time to create sort of a Rune franchise that never took off. The RPG itself is written by industry super star Robin D Laws and was extremely innovative for its time and contained features that I have never seen in another pen and paper RPG. The typical Game Master/Dungeon Master role actually shifted between players after each encounter and unlike other RPGs competition between players was highly encouraged. You earned points for not only defeating enemies but also for how you defeated them, most famously killing someone with their own severed limb got you a boost.
Both this game and the pen and paper RPG are worth seeking out.
Severance: Blade of Darkness still was the Dark Souls of the time... those were the days...
That game was such a great thing. After beating it with multiple times, I still spent lots of hours in the arena mode that came with the Gladiator mod. Getting to doing all those combos by heart wasn't exactly easy, but extremely rewarding.
And the shadow casting was something to behold. Even nowadays I often think "why are those shadows so edgy and eat up like half of my fps when I switch them on when Severance made it with no loss almost 20 years ago?". That was literally miraculous!
Really fun video buddy
I'm pretty sure I watch just about everything you post. You are so funny and honest.
Old school games are appreciated nowadays ❤. I found the creators cared more about content regardless the graphics. Fun factor was and is 10/10. Today my son seems stressed with the DLC’s after buying a new dlc he ‘s not long before he needs another purchase I don’t seem him having fun like we used to.
The Multiplayer of this is pure awesomeness! If you can find someone to play with, give it a shot!
Totally forgot about this one. It was a cool game from what I recall =)
It's awesome to see that a developer like Human Head has been around so long and is not only still making awesome stuff, but supporting their previous projects as well.
Amazing right? Human Head's about to enter their 18th year in game development. That's kind of absurd.
*****
Me neither. Had no idea rune was from them.
I replayed this recently while having Heilung playing in the background. It was a super immersive experience that I enjoyed way more that my first play though 20 years ago.
This game reminded me of Drakan: Order of the Flame.
This, Drakan, Wheel of Time and Severance: Blade of Darkness: Awesome!
Wow, I haven´t seen this game for ages now, the first time I saw it I couldnt help but think it was like some sort of crazy and more violent "Tomb Raider". Still looks god for a retro game though.
Thank you for guiding me to the viking game I have always wanted, but never knew it existed.
Here we go again,thanks to your epic channel and videos i once again ended up grabbing a copy of Rune from GOG because i never got the chance to finish the game back then,i played multiplayer only at internet caffe(hmmm nice times)
Keep it up dude!!!!!
PS.i totally agree with the less music and more ambiance sounds in games like this.

R.I.P. Human Head Studios.
So my sister, cousins and I played this game more than any other in our childhood. The sheer amount of fun games you can make up in multiplayer is incredible - from hide-and-go-seek (and murder) to playing soccer with a skull to playing in the huge arena with moon-jumping and only allowing throwing weapons. It was years before I even tried out the singleplayer.
I am a very big fan of your videos and these awesome reviews .... I request you to please increase the number of reviews per week . I would also request you to cover games from handheld platforms , also please dedicate some episodes to retro fighting games as I have never seen you review a fighting game before .
Any mention of Hexen gets my approval.
ooo I used to love multiplayer rune. Throwing weapons was so damn fun, that was my favorite part, one hitting some guy with a greatsword from across the map rofl.
Cory R rune mp was legendary. It was a LAN party classic in the early 00s.
Man, we're lucky to have you exhuming old-school and obscure games, that most most of us didn't ear about. Considering the qualities you enjoyed in Rune, i realy recommend the souls series, as they use the same features en enhance them tenfold. Keep rockin' !
If you play on the hardest difficulty, your combat strategies matter a lot. Even having a shield is pretty much a must. It's also great to make good use of the dodge mechanic if you've turned it on. Yeah, your enemies still attack you without second thoughts, but you have to be very careful how you go about attacking or sometimes avoiding them.
Well, don't thank *US* for Odin. Thank the Nords for that. :y
Also, this game looks brutal and I'll definitely have to give it a go at some point.
I love this game. Never play the single mode (well, if you count get into the intro and get out right after that is play, then yeah, maybe i do). The Multiplayer is just freaking AWESOME BEYOND AWESOME!!!
How did you not play the singleplayer first ?
I was young and don't learn english back then so i don't know what to do.
Aah. I was teen or tween when that came out.
Sorry, but first game that really force me to learn english is Star Wars KOTOR of Bioware. Still, why i need learn english for when all i need to do is chop enemy head with my axe ^^.
can't fault you
Drakan Order of the Flame and Rune are still on the very top of my favorite all time games! Games of my childhood. Games that got me into 3rd person fantasy action adventure. I really miss that genre too, everything is RPG now.. I like RPG games, but I really miss the pure Action-Adventure games. RUNE AND DRAKAN FOREVER!!!
RUNE PVP was like the a Souls before Souls for me, loved the sword and shield, and throwing handaxes at fleeing opponents' backs haha.
I played the hell out of this game back then. The Dwarven Work Sword was my jam. It was fantastic at LAN parties too. I miss those days.
Man I'll never forget long night's in middle school playing on an iNi clan server working on my footwork with the dwarven work sword. I remember if you timed it right running forward and then strafing to the right the moment you swing it slashes the perfect angle to take someone's head off instantly. Felt so good to get the combat down.
Rune! best game ever :D
reminds me of two simple words... onaga coop...
Shit this video might be four years old and I might be really really hight, but this game lokks fkin cool as I'm tellin yiu m8
I bought this in 1999 and my crap computer couldn't play it so I had to return it. 😔
I played Rune when it first came out thinking it would be a game based on Viking history; raiding coastal villages, sailing, plundering, fighting. But when I saw it was a dungeon crawl against enemies that looked like they were imported from Half Life, I was let down in a big way.
So I put it away and forgot all about it, until a few months ago when I decided I would play it for what it had to offer. I ended up enjoying it for the most part. It looked and ran great on my PC. I played it on a Viewsonic P225f 21 inch CRT monitor that has since died on me. The game looked fantastic for being such a relic. There was a DX10 mod for it I installed that helped too. I don't know how it would look on a modern wide screen LCD. The Viewsonic was set at 75 hz and the frames were locked at 75 fps. Game looked gorgeous and ran butter smooth!
Played this with my dad when I was a kid in the early 2000’s... thanks for reviewing this one
Sadly the are making Rune 2 that at this moment looks worse :(
Hope they fix it soon and make the legacy live again!
How I long for those days...
4:36 What epic dialogue.
Better than modern films.
Gods I just frikking love the sound of LGR's voice. I could listen to him all day... Maybe I will.
